5 speed short shifters are roughly between $300-400 and 6 speed short shifters are under $100.. aprox price so dont quote me

[Cameron P]

sorry... search rip shifter for the 5 speed's... normally found on a website, cant find any in a shop and the 6 speeds i have no idea

[benno1234]

ebay has 6sp short shifters for like 69 dollars :P

I soooooo want a short shifter. But 5 speed getrag has like NONE available in Australia that I have found. Apparentlt you can import a mustang short shifter from the states as they will fit, but that obvious makes it more exxy

billet specialties do a shifter for the 5 speed getrag.

[Macca86]

So they do! Awesome. Best start saving my pennies now.

i have one and they are only like 25mm shorter then standard but are pretty good, theres no slop in the box no more

got mine off ebay for $299 brand new

But is that just a shorter stick or an actual replacement shifter mechanism that reduces the throw between gears like a rip shifter? Having a shorter stick seems kind of pointless, I'd much rather have an actual short shifter.

Mate are you serious cause I'm seriously interested in getting one cause there is wayyyyy too much throw in the 5 speed getrag box for my liking

[MR_VX]

yeah mate im for real, no more slop in the box after installing one, i wanted one for ages but didnt wanna pay $450 from the website but found a fella on ebay selling them for $299 so thought why not and im glad i did.

[jr689]

I know it honestly needs one so bad but I don't wanna fork out the cash either... This bloke isn't selling them on eBay anymore by any chance is he??? You wouldn't be able to give me his eBay account name so I could message him and see if he could source us one??? I'm really really desperate haha

[MR_VX]

his user name is no longer registered on ebay sorry

[jr689]

To say I'm devastated is an understatement haha thanks anyway mate!

Just to start this convo back up... do you know what shifter that is and for what mustang as I'd be interested in sussing it out just quietly!

[old mate]

well whatever mustang had the 'getrag 260' gearbox i'd reckon. they had v6 mustangs around for a bit so i spose google may help.

[jr689]

Thanks mate I'll suss it out now!

[old mate]

yeah im not sure how you'll get on, but they would be fairly similar you would think if they use the same gearbox.

some bmw's used the getrag 260 too i think.

[Macca86]

Just sent a message to my mate who put it in his VS SS. Will let you know when he replies mate.

[jr689]

Thanks mate much appreciated... I sussed out a group buy with billet products and they said if I can get 10 people together they will do it for $349, but I've heard arranging those group buys are a pure hassle

[Macca86]

$349 is good if you get the people. If my ignition module hadnt crapped out last weekend leaving me up for a new one (and after already buying a new coil coz I jumped the gun and thought that was the problem ) id have probably had enough to put my name down for the group buy

[jr689]

Yea $349 is great in my opinion and that's delivered too! But yea I apparently have to handle all the transactions and what not meaning everyone has to give their money to me, which would obviously turn people off. It would be a hassle to having to organise everyone and get them to pay up, it would be great though however!
