Hey all, This is the first of several parts from my '98 GLX I'm posting for sale. I bought this for $200 around 2003 or so -- this was arguably the best shortshifter on the market and I still consider it the best mod I ever did. It completely changes the character of the car, and with no...

This is on my VR, but I know of at least a few of us here that have it (Jay). Question; has anyone felt or needed to re-align, adjust etc? Not sure if after time, I'd get slack in the cable or something or I'm being concerned over nothing due to it simply being cold outside. On frigid mornings...

Well, I know its almost the end of february, but I finally got my winter driver fully ready for the winter. Just in time as luck would have it, we just got 18" of snow which is now turning to ice, and then more snow tonight!! I got the Dieselgeek Panzer skid plate, mostly because everyone else...

This thread is to see if there is interest in the Dieselgeek Short Shifter kits. In case you don't all know, they have discontinued selling them for most models. I verified this in a short email to them and they stated that they do not produce for any B5 (VW or Audi). I replied back to...

after doing numerous searching, i have read lots of threads on this, yet still want some up to date accounts of experiences with both shifters. initially i wanted to go dieselgeek, but i came across a neuspeed shifter for $190.00 over on vwvortex. i'm gathering that most of the ss are equal in...

If so, what do you think about it? I'm considering one....... thanks.

I just replaced my stock 5speed stick with the Dieselgeek short shift kit today for my B5.5. After the installation I took the following measurements on gear stick travels: Neutral to 1st: shortened from 6.0cm to 5.0cm (improvement = 17%) Neutral to 2nd: shortened from 5.0cm to 3.5cm...

Hey gang, just installed a Diesel Geek short shifter in the Passat, and it seems a good bit stiffer now than previously. Is that just an "illusion" because it's, uh, shorter (less leverage due to to shorter length)? I really like the short and positive throws. It's just a little stiff, that's...

Well my Dieselgeek Short Shifter arrived today and let me tell you my first impression: this thing is a FREAKING WORK OF ART!!! its milled from two pieces of billet aluminum!!!! it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! i hope it shifts as good as it looks; I will find out this weekend!

Two questions: 1. Is anyone running the WIX 1333 over-sized oil filter with a DieselGeek oil cooler? I am wondering if there is enough clearance for both in tandem. 2. People running a DieselGeek oil cooler: do you obtain a notable difference in oil temperature. Or, should I look at...

I tried to install my new dieselgeek shortshifter today but ran into some problems when it came time to replace the old ballsocket with the new one. The old ballsocket appears to be held in place by a polyurethane bushing, that seems glued in, or the polyurethane was formed around the ball...

Just got this in email from Jim at Dieselgeek, I responded asking for more info, will ask about a possible GB also. Dunno if it's public knowledge yet or not. I'll pass more info on as I get it.
