Short shifter - forge vs neuspeed
« on: 12 April 2009, 23:42 »
Hi there, Im looking to get a short shifter and im not sure to chose the neuspeed one or the forge one. The forge one is like half the price of the neuspeed one but I hear that its engineered to a much lower quality. But it seems that the neuspeed one is just way too expensive.

Which one is best to go for? It just seems silly to pay nearly double, but if the neuspeed one is a lot better I may go for that one.

What model year is your GTI? If it is MY08 and later then the Forge won't fit...
