View Full Version : GI: Kartboy Short Shifter/Bushings/Knobs
wannabe

CANCELED. NO RESPONSE RECD FROM WHOLESALER. Sorry...
It's been a while since I've done one of these, but I was thinking about ordering another set of Short Shifters, Bushings and Knobs from Kartboy. I still have to contact Mark at Kartboy, but I want to make sure the market is still there before ordering.
Kartboy does not ship to Canada, but I will be more than willing to. I don't like that they neglect our neighbors to the north, or around the globe. I will ship worldwide, if you need an international order, please let me know and I will quote you.
Heres what the pricing will be (based on prior pricing)
shifter/bushings/knob 115 shipped
shifter/bushings only 105 shipped
shifter/knob only 105 shipped
bushing/knob only 40 shipped
canada add 10$
singles
shifter only 85 shipped
bushing only 20 shipped
knob only 25 shipped
canada add 5$
all prices in US$
___
This is what they would go for from Kartboy directly.
lever: 90 + shipping
bushing 25 + shipping
knob: 40 + shipping
combos:
lever and bushing: 105 + shipping
supercombo: 135 + shipping

they make a much more precise shift. it gets rid of the play in the lever. very nice improvement.

heres what is going to happen. i will contact mark at kartboy and make sure the offer is still availible to me. then i will post my payment information up. i will need around 7-10 orders paid before i can order from them as, like many of you, i am poor :( once i have recieved the order from them, I will ship out immediately to those people who have paid.
i will post back here when i have more information.

I got a response from Tom at Kartboy, he informed me that Mark is no longer with the company, so the terms may change slightly. I have contacted the new wholesalers and will let you know the outcome.

mp3wannabe I am assuming that you are not able to run this GB. If so do you think you could contact there sales guy and have them setup GB? It looks like there is a bit of interest for some Kartboy products.
TIA, if not no big deal.
Thanks

do i need them to customize the thread for the knob or anyting like that? ...btw boomer. how does ur vis evo hood fit.? mines like 80% good. gaps on sides are a lil big, lil bubbles + fitment is off towards the windshild (dips down)
boomergt

The kartboy SS has the same thread pattern as the stock shifters..
As far as my hood goes,
I would say it fits 98%. The hood quality is great, The side vents should be filled in or colored so they are not white.
Other than that I love the hood.

for everyone that wanted a shifter/knob combo with bushings, there is a GB going on in the GB forum right now for a megan racing (jspec) shifter, and it comes with a ball style shift knob, and you can get the kartboy bushings with it, CHEAP to, so dont lose hope :D...

if some of you canada guys want me to be a middle man i can do that still...i just wont be able to get you a discount. i'm gonna have to charge you more though...enough to cover my paypal costs, and shipping to canada, plus a teensy bit for my labor. PM me and we can work something out..
Another option for Canadians is to buy them from Corksport who does ship to Canada. Their website lists them for $24 US. Check it out.
