I have been doing some research and it seems that there are some clearance/fouling issues with fitting a quickshift to a 205 GTI with GTI-6 engine and 205 GTI 5 speed gearbox.

I am thinking about Spoox, GE, Compbrake etc. Has anyone fitted one of these that can give me some feedback please?

Cheers,

George

I can't tell you which one I had fitted to my 205 GTi-6 but it was adjustable. You could extend the ball on it 3 or 4 different lengths. The main problem, as i'm sure you're aware, was that it caught the exhaust manifold everytime you went for 2nd, 4th and reverse.

I'm now using a standard one.

Thanks Andy, I don't want the hassle of catching on the exhaust manifold. Do you mean that you're using a standard quickshift now rather than adjustable, or just the standard 205 setup?

The quadrant ones are pretty poor and make the changes worse I think, The Proper way is to adjust the gearstick by lengthening the bottom part which the Comp-brake ones do but I have known a few of these snap off along with another supplier of the same idea,
I would just use some Clip on Gear rods and a rose joint on the subframe to the main solid linkage as such which replaces the worn cup which cannot be replaced.
Result is a nice change
