It would be pretty easy to have the part made to be honest, however the tricky part is the extended rubber boot. If someone could mold that, I could have these (or even better) quickshifter kits made again.

I may look into having that done at some point, I'm sure some 3D printing place can do a flexible material for the boot or similar. As I said, getting the metal pieces done up would be no problem at all.

So it's even possible to make a SHORTER throw?

Correct, the original F-Sport shifter increased the length below the fulcrum by 25mm. I would probably do 30mm if I was doing it.

I also recently found out that the 3D printer I have access to is able to print flexible rubber parts. I will be investigating further...

Any update on the short shifter? Was it able to be 3D printed?

Anything from me will probably be a ways off, I have a design, but not the time to test/manufacture it.

One day...
