Quick shift kit

My son has a new Golf III and I wanted to give him for
Christmas one of those quick shift kids. Does any body
care to  advise on the types, quality and performance
of these gizmos
Thanks,
       Raul

    My personal favorite quick shift kid, is male, aound 13yr old. The’re the
    most ajile with their hands (playing nintendo helps increase dexterity)
    Generally, the more sugar you feed him, the faster he will shift. Shortness
    is a plus, it helps then to crouch down in the passenger compartment, allowing
    plenty of room for your friends to ride.

    If the child’s name is gizmo, beware, don’t get him wet, and DON’T feed him
    after midnight!!

    I bought my Neuspeed short shift kit from Plain Wrap for $61.95.
    Works great.  I would say one of the best satisfaction-for-the-buck
    upgrades there is.

        Is this the same shift kit as for the VR6 GTI? My friend paid
    around $350 for his.

     Nope. All VR6 VWs use have a trans(02A?) with cable actuated shifters.
     The only company I’ve seen with a short shift kit for it is Neuspeed.
     It costs alot more than the linkage type shifters found on the 4 cylinder
    models.
