Default R&B Motorsport

Has anyone bought anything from him recently? Trying to get hold of a short shift for a MT75 gearbox. Can't seem to make a straight purchase of the website.

If not I'm wondering whether just to get one of the ones of eBay from either compbrake or rally design, has anyone had any experience with either of those? Don't want to fit anything that may cause issue to the syncros.

Thanks in advance

Yeah should have mentioned I emailed him Monday and nothing back yet. I'm being impatient as wanted to get the box back in this weekend.

I will be taking off my short shifter soon as Bara thinks it might not work well with the selector forks on the Oppliger close ratio long box that I have...yet to be proven and seems odd as both made by Oppliger....the way his tech explained it is that it is like it is hammering in the selector fork due to not enough play to suit the box.


I have bought a standard shifter off ebay to refurbish...shame to remove as it is like a rifle bolt at the moment.

You need to be careful which ones you go for.
some can be too short, the r&b one works well.

Well hopefully he'll come back. I would rather use the R&B one as many have said it's right. I guess I might have to send another email.
