				Hey all,
 
 
Does anyone know about gemini quick shifter/short shifters for a manual gearbox? I know they used to make them a few years back cos I saw them advertised in some old magazines. Anyone know where I could buy one? Anyone got one for sale?
 
 
Cheers

				from what i gatherd u just cut em down to what size u want like short as so u can do quick changes.... if u know a fitter and turner theyd be able to whip it up for u shit easy and cheap as just use ur existing shift.
 
 
hope it helps yas and luck |

				| It's a lot easyer to cut and TIG weld than it is to machine a new one and press it on the exsisting shaft. I dunno how much it's worth??? |

				| just take off your gear stick boot and then yr consol then undo the 3 bolts and the whole gear stick comes out then u can just use a vice and angle grinder to chop it to your desired length then just get a new gear knob from somewhere like supercheap and they have little grub nuts that screw into the side of the gear stick and u don't need a thread for them |
