The brass bush kit for the Toyota MR2 is a direct fit if anybody's looking to replace their bushes (a good idea when fitting the short-shift kit)

**Tomcat** · Monday 9th September 2013, 15:24

Where's the short shift kit available from?

**M-R-P** · Monday 9th September 2013, 15:28

I think IPD do one. There may be one or two of mine floating about somewhere but I don't have any.

Maybe Stribo, Nordic or TheFlyingBrick can post a pic.

V70Graham might have had a pic on his "relentless pursuit of perfection" thread.

**stribo** · Thursday 10th October 2013, 20:45

I haven't got a pic of mine.

**Tomcat** · Thursday 10th October 2013, 23:05

Wouldn't mind a short shift kit, fancy making some more?
