Im just trying to gauge how many people would be interested in one of Colin's 'satchshift' kits. I spoke to Colin and he said he'd need 12 people to commit before he develops a 'diy' kit.

So, what is a Satchshift ??

The Satchshift is a full gearlinkage kit that replaces all of the old, crappy linkages, balls and wearing parts with new rose joints for precison shifting. Its also a quickshift which gives plenty of adjustment to personalise it. Colin has been making these for 10 years now, but is now developing diy kits.

To quote Sandy Brown:
"To be absolutely clear about this, the kit is designed for competition use and trimming of the lower part of the dash (if the dash is fitted as original), is usually required. Colin has minimised the work required to make it easier for people who do choose to fit the kit in a standard car, but that's not what it's intended for."


Here are some pictures of the 106 kit fitted. These are not my pics and are taken for the thread about these on 106rallye.co.uk.










No price as of yet, but the 106 one came in at £280, so i cant see the 306 one being much more.

More info can be found here: http://www.106rallyeforum.com/forum2008/showthread.php?t=77112

I'm not too sure. I wouldnt have thought so as the radio is at the top of the dash. I know the 106 version has to have the bottom if the dash trimmed. The heater piping at the bottom of the dash in the centre console might have to move!

I'll try and find out!

You were thinking of the 205 weren't you?
Cheers for the pic aswell. Gives people a better idea of the fitting location.

I asked Colin about these in late December but he was in the middle of doing a batch of 205 kits at the time. I asked him to stick my name down on the list as there was someone else after one too. I had better stick my name down on here just incase! More pics of the setup can be found in these project threads: dixon and devere

Yeah I'd imagine it would. These are designed for race/track vehicles so some standard trim/items might have be modified or removed!

I can't see why not. The only problem might be your downpipe location. The kit will probably be designed around the standard manifold. If your system is in the same location as the standard one then it will be fine!

I think you would struggle to be honest. Looking through the pics in your project thread I don't know whether you would have enough space in the engine bay with the downpipe.

on a side note, do you have anymore pics of your swirl pot setup?

I think Colin was going to look into a more road car friendly setup, much like the 106 kit he has done not the ones used on 205's and 306 race cars currently.

fast_eddie - Colin will be making these as road friendly as he can. But with most things designed for motorsport use, compromises have to be made ie trimming of interior. I'll put your name down for now, but I can always remove it if you want me to!

"tame" ?!

I think the only differences you may encounter would be the finishing and whether the gearbox has rose jo0ints or standard clip on ends.

When I say road friendly, I only mean that it tries to avoid or minimise the removal/modification of the interior!
