That's a hell of a lot more than the Kartboy was going to be... and that doesn't include the bushing!!

I'm in for the B&M if you can get a price of less than 200 shipped to winnipeg. Otherwise I'm picking one up from motion for around 220, CDN of course =D

Hi guys

Have you checked with JB's Power Centre here in Edmonton? He has been selling the B&M Short shifter for around $220 CDN or thereabouts. Also, if you buy from the US don't forget the shipping, as well as the hit when it lands in Customs. If he ships to you, you will only have to pay GST plus shipping.

Shane at JB's has been giving the guys on the board a break on the price. I know he sold a few to some guys in Winnipeg already too, or was it Saskatoon? Here is the phone number 780-406-7030.

By the way, his ID on the board is lowpro5.

No kidding!!!

I ordered a CP muffler from them before christmas, they said it would be here in a week. Well... I'm still waiting, I wanted to get it on before I go back to university but that doesn't look like it's going to happen! Argh... oh well.

As for the SS, I'm waiting till next paycheque to pick it up, so I won't know about the exact pricing untill then, unless you'd like me to call him up about it, I could do that

I have been very pleased with my TWM short shift. It's CAD$160 all inclusive thought toprotege.com group buy.

I really did not have the option of going B&M because they don't have an MP3 specific model so that I can keep the stock ****. I did do a search in various forums and did not find overwhelming positive comments for B&W. I tried both the B&M & TWM installed in other pro's and the throw did not feel too different. One reason I wanted B&M was that they come with a set of bushing that is supposedly better than the stock. But I guess being vain, I went with look (i.e. keeping the ****) instead.

Just another option for those who don't want to pay extra for the brand name.
