short shifter clarification
real quick.....
AUDI A4 96-03 S4 00 01 RACING SHORT THROW SHIFTER KIT | eBay
is this the famous b&m knock off short shifter we have all come to enjoy? I am trying to clean up gearbox slop, figure ill drop this in and replace transmission mounts. Just want to make sure this is widely accepted shifter.
Also, what about this push down for reverse crap... i thought that was for pre facelift b5s. Someone clarify?
I read you can just use the b&m instructions. Is is difficult?

Yep thats the knock-off. I ran one on my 97 for 2 years and have had one in my avant for over a year now with zero issues. Only problem I had came from me not using thread locker on the right bolts lol. It won't be as crisp as the JHM solid bushing/shifter combo, but its also not $250

The ones I bought were configurable for either case. Push down reverse required you to add a pin and a spring and some other weird ****, and by leaving that stuff out it allowed you to use the same shifter for non-push down reverse.

Just needed to make sure, I'm going to order this and install it probably next weekend.
Between this and new transmission mounts, shifting should be significantly easier.... Lately first and second gear have been a ************
Thanks for the clarification!!
