Anyone done a B & M short shift kit? My indy has one and I was thinking of trying it. Any feedback out there? Thanks in advance.

 

I have one and Iam very happy with it. Very short throws. Somewhat notchy but that is ok with me since I wanted shortest throws. The 997 SS kit is smoother I understand...

 

I've had one for years- happy with no problems

 

I've broken 2 with no support from B&M within warranty period. EVO SSK all the way. Its my second one now in 2 P-cars and I love it.

 

Two years now and no problems. Just need to be carefully adjusted first time when installed.

 

997 SSK all the way.... driven both, B&M seems like it should be made for a mustang or a viper... not a Porsche.

 

I have one- its been fine for the 14K miles I've had it. Little bit notch in the cold, but overall not a bad item. That being said... there are much better options out there these days (997 parts)

 

I have one and when you make a few pulls,it gets hot and you start having problem when shifting fast mostly in 2'-3'gear

 

Thanks for all the replies. Now I'm torn. Seems like the notchy thing is consistant and the 997 SSK is the one of choice? The B & M is $400.00 installed. Anyone have an idea of the 997 SSK installed price? Thanks for the help !

 

I've had a B&M shifter kit in my 996 for five years without any problems. If is set up properly, you should not have any issues. Short, crisp throws with a little notchiness.

 

Same for me, only had mine for a few months, but this sums it up.

 

Ditto. The 997 SSK is a great option as well.

 

Had mine for 6 years...as stated above if it is installed correctly no notchiness. It is the OEM shifter manufacturer

 

I had one, but it was too notchy. I installed the 997 shifter and it's buttery smooth. If anyone in the southeast wants a 996 ssk for free, come pick it up. It's just collecting dust in my garage.

 

have had b&m for 4 years way better than stock yep mine is a shade notchy .and i hear the 997 is super smooth, but i shift by the heart beat sys soooo. $400.00 seems a bit much i changed mine at home with no probs....
