That's right, I was wrong and I've come to confess my sin.

I didn't think a MINI really "needed" a short shift kit. One of my local customers got a Craven SS and asked me to bed in the new brakes. So I jump in, SS set to stock, feels good, then I lower it at a stop light.
Green light, shift, WOW what a great feel and really short. I finish bedding in the Carbotech Bobcats and play with the Craven, love it so much I have added it along with many other Craven parts to my site.

If you want a true short shift, that can be set to stock for the daily drive, the only one is Craven http://www.autoxcooper.com/craven.html
