Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if the Audi TT short shifter will fit the 1.4TSi 160 gearbox?
It looks similar, but I can't tell nor see any info on here as to whether it actually fits.
TIA
Alan

Yees it would.
Better off buying a proper short shift.
I have an Ebay quickshift with modded mounting bolts, a Mk1 Leon Cupra R side to side unit and 42dd bushes throughout and it's ace.

I've a brand new set of 42DD bushes in my garage if anyone wants them for beer tokens
I've just bought an S3 shifter for mine from germany for £24.

Thanks both for the replies. I know that aftermarket ones are infinitely adjustable etc, but I can't justify the price to myself. Whereas £30 from the stealers is a bit more palatable.
As already said, thanks for the replies and advice.

Ebay quickshifter is 35 quid
And alot shorter.
Up to you ultimately.
My mate has an S3 and to be honest I didn't notice a difference between that and mine stock.

I've got the S3 shifter on mine, its not that much shorter in reality. Maybe 10-15% less throw, it feels better than stock none the less. I'll probably get the Cupra R side to side unit at some point as well. If you want to feel a lot shorter shifts then after market would be better.

Are these ebay ones any good?
I'm always a bit dubious....

No I recommended it because it's terrible
The stock mounting isn't the best. You just need a washer or a slightly larger headed bolt to secure it.
Combine with the LCR Mk1 side to side one which is metal, the Scirocco one is plastic and terrible, then it's a lot better. With the 42dd bushes it's nicer still.

The R is in for springs and an S3 shifter today but turns out the face-lift has the short shifter as standard. Same part no.
