Today, after HUGE frustration, i was able to swap the Dieselgeek 6spd short-shifter out of the Golf and into my 4mo Bora. Also swapped the Modshack VTDA from the Golf to the Bora too. happy days!!!
Ended up taking me about 5 hours and the help of 2 other people (yes, i am a nooblet) but the threads on the gear shafts on both cars seemed to be very slightly burred which meant the allow shift links couldn't slide on easily or come off easily.
Going for a test run now to make sure its all good.
EDIT - Just did a quick test drive and HOLY JEEBUS!!! somehow (and someone please explain) the exhaust sounds different (different cool, not different bad) and seems way louder once it hits about 2800 rpm all ther way out to 6K rpm. i also obviously get the mad sucking sound when you accelerate from idle.
