For anyone still sitting on the fence, go for it.
Once fitted, you'll wonder why Lotus did not design the shift a lot shorter in the first place. It makes a major positive improvement.

Randy, do you want me to put a shortshift in with the rest of your stuff? Dave's happy to replace mine in slow time and I wasn't going to fit it this side of Donington.

In all honesty I've been toying with the idea of getting bobbrown's front brake brackets and bits, and finding the Wilwood calipers locally. But I feel like I'm putting a strain on our new friendship here :)

Yes please Dave. And if you would like to better your 1 hour re-fit time for an M100 with air-con I'll drive mine down to Shitley Bay and you can have another shot LOL

Will get those wheel centres sent off soon - honest :oops:

Mind you there may be some drop out as I've just had a shock bill for the counterweights :evil:

No problem Rambo - I now know which bit of the AC bites. Will be a long trip for what is a relatively simple fit tho'
And I'm trying to imagine my drive full of M100's :P
