For Sale: 987 Schnell Short Shift Kit

Purchased brand new from Epiq Autosport, never installed.

Up to 30% reduction in throw, (depending on Boxster model shifter being replaced) anodized aluminum housing, new improved brass bushings, drop forged shift rod angled 10 degrees to retain factory hand position.
The Schnell short shift kit is perfect for those who want to shorten the throw of their shifters but do not want the intense 'notchy' feeling of the popular B&M short shift kit. The Schnell has a much smoother transition from one gear to the next.

I had intentions of installing the kit but my wife started driving the boxster and is finally "comfortable". I would hate to change the shifter and hear about it for the rest of my life.

So with that said, $100 bucks to my pay pal plus shipping would be the lucky person.

super66 hasn't been back on, for awhile.
I purchased this unit from him and did a DIY installation thread.
I like it, but it had a major issue with fitting the OEM shift knob on the 987.
There are several places that have them on sale, the best deal is here - http://www.eagleday.com/scca99shshki.html
It comes with a replacement for the plastic cable end, but Rennsport says this replacement is BS, there are no complaints of breaking this part on 987s. I Don't know about the 986 unit, but hey, it's there!
I would call and make sure your shift knob will fit, before buying one.
Take your time adjusting and fiddling with it, and you'll be happy with it.
I love mine.
