Thinking of installing the Craven in my 500T. Will it increase the ease or precision of shifts as well as shortening the throw?
The gearshift is one of the best things about the 500, i wouldn't.
It won't technically change the precision, the change will be the same mechanical function in the g/box but it will feel sharper / quicker as the throw will be less.
TWM looks an amazing piece if kit!
You are making me want one now lol.
If you are ordering from America let me know we can share the shipping cost.
A Quaife is expensive, not a DIY job, and a pretty big MPG hit. Plus, the shifter is something you'll feel every time you drive the car.
LSD's basically connect the left and right wheels in one way or another to create friction between them. It's enough to make the steering heavier, and enough to affect MPG (when the steering's not straight at least). jnoiles reported 4mpg I think? For my money, the TA doesn't need an LSD, well, maybe if the clutch needed replacing, but my clutches tend to go 300,000km.
