Any more info on this and how much work is it to do and what parts are used from the puma?

If i can't get any joy with this might try one of the rally design kits.

Fair enough to an extent: altho there's plenty of free help on here when needed, plus there is no info on your site apart from the quotes I took. If you don't want to say or post any pics you may have, then just say so and stop trying to be the blooody pied piper whilst we're the rats following trying to get some crumbs from you on this subject

On my site, all the info needed is there.

But members who have less than X amount of posts will not see them sections of the site. Due to the reasons posted above.

Thats fair enough, BUT......you know im not a member on your site (maybe i should be?!), but you know im always on here, and anything i do learn is usually kept for personal knowledge, im not trying to cash in on anyone.

And above all, im not trying to offend you at all, why step in and tell us all the error of our ways/that what we are doing is wrong and there are better ways, then we ask for a little insight, your response is something like.......send me Ł$Ł$Ł$Ł$

Its up to you if you want to hit the roof over what ive just said, its not meant to offend

Shite I'm afraid. That's the type of kit that this thread was started over.

No substitute for the B&M as far as I am concerned.

IT IS NOT A SHITE BIT OF KIT !

If you don't have the money for the B&M item and can do a bit of engineering, then this Rallye Design kit is a GOOD quick shift making the gear change a lot more positive than before.

Its not about money ffs. If it was do you think i would charge Ł40 for an hours work, measuring, cutting, welding, getting greasy, testing etc etc

TBH i would rather not spend an hour of my day messing around with a gearlinkage, when i could be spending the time doing something productive like fixing a car that i have qued up.



Some of you have the info and links you need (Get busy) ill post a pic of the linkage from inside the car later on



The others who just wanna tinternet rows and make them selfs busy.....GO SPEND THE MONEY AND GET ROBBED

I'm not just saying it's shite because I sell the B&M kits. I have driven a car with one of these kits fitted and thought it was hardly any better than without it fitted.

After all, I have driven a few RST's, so aren't completely ignorant.

I appreciate you aren't ignorant Christian. Maybe you drove a badly fitted one.
As I said before, mine was 200% better and very positive and took a while to get used to driving with a standard stick and finding the gears when I removed it to sell the car.

Jano_OddKidd, that would be FANTASTIC if you could get a picture.

And i have no doubts you have better earners than Ł40 for a gear linkage that takes an hour

Can you give me any clues at all to the info that other people have, even if its by PM?
