Quickshift available?

[porkexpress]

Just bought my first Viper and was surprised by the length of travel when shifting gears. I was wondering if there was a quickshift kit available, and if so where could I get it fitted.

partsrack.com should help

i shortened the thtow/travel by swapping for a shorter bar which the knob attaches to

which model do you??

Thanks for that. I have an SRT-10 in blue. I have uploaded a picture on my profile.

Recently fitted a Hurst shifter kit to my SRT10, makes a big improvement and selecting reverse is less of a lottery. Easy to fit yourself as well.

Sounds great. Which type did you fit and where did you buy it? I have looked on a few US websites and there seem to be quite a few options.

Hey V1PER, how did you know I was also looking at a GT500? I may still get one for my wife if James does me a deal.

There is only one Hurst shifter kit for the SRT 10 although there are equally as good ones made by B&M and probably others. I bought my Hurst of US E bay for significantly less that the likes of Snake Oyl and so on. It was new and came with full instructions and works a treaat.

Just fitted a B&M and love it much better than stock....

I believe Hurst was bought out by B&M within the last few months

Thanks guys. I'll have a look.

For a shorter throw and better 'feel' you just want something like these, and fits in seconds, both great companys to deal with:

But, the Hurst shifter is great on SRT's, more direct feel.

Bjorn, do you know if that will fit a GenI?

[A GTS]

Yes, Knob thread is same on GenI, II, III Vipers!

[RT/10Dave]

Thanks, I am considering a B&M short shifter at the moment, but maybe that might be another option.

Wait a week or two and meet up with Pete, Nad's just got the MGW and shorter rod for Pete as he liked the feel of this set up in mine.

[RT/10Dave]

Will do, we're going to the Goodwood Breakfast club on the 7th so I'll take a look if he's done it by then. Thanks Bjorn!
