Hey guys I am looking at putting in a short shift kit. I am tossing up between the COBB short shift kit of the GFB short shift kit.

I want to know which one has the better feel.

Does anyone have these fitted in their MY08 GT-B 6 speed that can give me the pros and cons for both?

Mine has the COBB kit and I wouldn't hesitate to put one in another vehicle based on my experience with it. Short, snappy and a solid feel.

I can't comment on the GFB unit, however.

Where did you get it from? I had a look their website but couldn't work out if they delivered to Aus.

How much did it cost?

Cobb is better than the GFB, driven both and the Cobb is adjustable throw and adjustable height

So I have decided to go for a COBB Short Shift Kit from Carmods Australia. I will post the post with a walk through if anyone is interested.

Definately the right choice. Height adjustment makes all the difference. The shifters feel a tad too high from stock

I thought we did but found out Liberty/Legacy 6spd has a few minor differences. Can be fitted with small modification though

See my build thread viewtopic.php?p=376402#p376402
