MK3 shortshifter
Someone told me about a short shifter for the mk3 that can be made yourself. The guy who told me was named ellie and he's one this site but i don't know his user name. He called the shifter a sobi, or sogi, or something shifter and told me to go on supraforums and look it up and it would show me the parts i needed to make it. But that site is down or something so i was wondering if anyone else knew about it and could explain how to make it and the parts needed.
-thanks
-thanks

Eh..I've seen enough people that dont think it was worth it here and there, shortening the shifter isnt a necessity to me, and I'm fine with how mine is right know
That being said, I dont know how the frick you could mess that up and not do it correctly...perhaps those whom did it and regret it have an IQ of less than 80

the way you explained sounds good cassio, but the guy who was explaining it to me said something about getting some toyota factory part and getting new bushings. Do you know what he'd be talking about. The one he showed me on his sup was very tight(not a lot of wiggling around) as well as short.
-thanks for input guys

v v
it can be compared to the two v's above. The angles of both v's are the same but the distance between the tips of v's are different.
