quick shift

Hello, just went to check out a bug. It had an empi quick shift which i thought was great. What are these worth? I had a browse over the net and found classicveedub.com sells a "quick shift kit" but its just a small bracket looking thing and costs under $10. Cheers

are you talking an Empi quick shift shifter - as in actual gear stick
or are you talking the quick shict kit that reduces the throw of a stock shifter??

One is worth under $200 (to some anyway) and the other is worth $10.

Both efectivley do the same job

ya the actual stick. $200 pretty cheap i recon for the amount of difference. thanks for the info

what your talking about is call the trigger shifter. they arent bad but they arent as short a shift a a quick shift but they do have a lock out

If the pic attaches like it should but never does thats what it was. The gears were bloody close. didnt seem possible to get any closer. I liked it tho. Cheers for the help

try an 35mm between gears stop to stop thats what ive got at the moment with the dragfast shifter it was 50mm with the quick shift and 60 with the one pictured above

I like these as well - I recently fitted a EMPI short shift kit to my stock '65 type one shifter which made an improvement. But, after recently driving a friends Manx with the pictured EMPI shifter - that was ALOT better with a more precise and shorter throw between gears...

I have been looking to buy one when the wife lets me spend more on the old girl - you can buy them new for about $100. Anyone got one for sale second hand so I can convince her to let me buy one? 🤘

just beware if your gears are worn they will increase the problem but i agree after driving with one i wouldn't drive without one
