Which of the two did you buy. The 75 Euro or the 350 Euro one. Any huge differences?

Factory "Shorter Shifting Travel"
I have option code 241 on my '95 C2. Is this the factory SSK that Gert sells or somthing else? Having no real seat time with a 993 without this option, is there any real improvement with it?

Thanks man. Is the install simple? I would like to hear your opinion once it is done. Other people on the board seem to be happy with it. Good Luck.

Am no expert, but PCA, tech article claims that you do not have to dimple cover, just reverse the two bushings, have looked at cars with SSK installed at the factory and there is no dimpling..........only what I have read.

Dimpling the cover is required only with the C4S, not the 2S. Has to do with the driveshaft and not being able to reverse the bushings mentioned in the 4S application.
BTW, I confirmed with B&M that their new shifter will NOT work with the C4S. Same issue as all the others, I assume.

question !
I've already got the fatcory short-shifter fitted.. bought it from Carnewal...
but at only 20% shorter ! I still want something even shorter.. no pun intended !
the B&M type, does anyone know what % reduction it offers on the gear-shift ?
regards

After driving with the Gert SSK for a few months now... I am going to cut the lever 1/2 to 3/4" shorter in a couple of weeks. I also have the front adjustable rod from the Weltmister SSK so I should be able to get just the right reach along with a shorter throw. I will report how this works out.

This hasn't been brought up yet...
Is anyone concerned about the added wear and tear potential from installing a short shift kit. I've always been told these things put more stress on internal transmission components; the synchros in particular.
When my gearbox is cold, I get a rough sort of feeling if I don't baby it going into 2nd gear. It's not enough to be called a 'grind', but I can sort of feel it through the shift lever.
I'd be concerned about gearbox wear.
