Short Shifter

I installed the Cravenspeed short shift kit today and it's awesome. I'll be writing up a how-to in the next couple days. It's not much different than the other MINIs, though the All4 adds some pain to the process. And as an added bonus, it got my Whalen **** from my R53 into my R60, which is SO much better than the stock ****.

Awesome, was thinking about doing this to my R53. Looking forward to seeing your how-to.

It's been up for a couple weeks in the how-to forum. Link: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...shift-kit.html

For an R53, the B&M directions are pretty solid: http://www.outmotoring.com/images/ho...rtshiftkit.pdf

We've installed a ton of short shifter kits and by far the Cravenspeed shifter is the best.

Have you put on a coupe yet? If so, any fitment issues?
