I know the rennshifter is the only way to go, but I cant spend 400+ on a shifter. I dont hate 901 shifting, but a shorter throw would be nice. Does the quick shift from performance products do that effectively? Or am I just asking for trouble?

has anyone used it?

i put one in my /6 and liked it. (this was back when it's all there was. actually, it wasn't the WeltMeister unit, but a much older version from TARGET Motorsports. same thing...

/4 and /6 linkages are different, but i liked it. for one thing, it was a LOT easier to reach 4th when snugly belted. in traffic the 1-2-3 shift was easier.

it will do nothing to improve accuracy and you might want to make sure your reverse lockout springs and guide are up to snuff.

the RennShifter is worth it, but if you like a close pattern, the Welt part is a decent value. note - unlike the RennShift, the Welt unit just changes the pivot - so while the fore/aft distance is reduced, which is good, but it also makes the distance between planes (back and forth) smaller, which means you must be more accurate in your shifting.
