i have 15 units available in the e36 m3 and 328 fitment, price is $365 plus shipping, as a bonus the first 15 members to sign up will get a KWD hid kit for only $69 plus shipping.:eyecrazy
this is limited to 15 only!!.
please put your name down, as soon as we get 10 names going i will post payment links.
BavToys is proud to announce our new affiliation with Rogue Engineering.
Rogue has long been known for their quality products made to enhance the driving pleasure of your street driven BMW or the performance of your BMW track/race car.
Rogue shift kits have been developed and perfected through years of experience in proven short shifter technology.
Shifter Lever Upper
The RE OCTANE is the only short shift kit to feature a CNC-machined 303 stainless steel upper section. This adds 100g more to the top of the shifter lever (compared to aluminum), helping to improve shifter feel. This small increase in mass above is compliments the incorporated WSR (not all models). The outside profile has been designed to precisely to allow use of the factory shift knob. This means that the use of factory illuminated shift knobs is possible.
Lowering NVH
By using a custom-extruded neoprene rubber insert, the OCTANE shifter is able to both minimize the NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) more than any other shifter on the market. By being able to design specific characteristics into the insert, we are able to minimize unwanted shifter free play while minimizing excessive harshness. Without sufficient material to address NVH issues in the driveline, you wind up with a shifter that vibrates and buzzes. As a matter of fact, the OCTANE shifter lever has 266% more vibration-absorbing material than the closest competitor. Shifter "isolation" should not be mistaken for "vibration-absorbing". Just because a shifter lever is built to be "isolated", do not mean that it has adequate materials to both acoustically dampen or absorb vibrations. If you want to maintain the vibration absorbing characteristics of a factory shifter, then your shifter lever better be made in a similar manner, using comparable materials.

The OCTANE Weighted Selector Rod (WSR)
Rogue Engineering is proud to introduce the most technologically advanced short shift kits available for BMWs. At Rogue, we realize that simply shortening the shift lever or moving the pivot point will not produce optimal shift feel. The smooth action that sets the OCTANE short shift kit apart from the others comes from our unique Weighted Selector Rod.
With the introduction of the RE Weighted Selector Rod, you can enjoy the benefits of a short shifter while improving shifter smoothness and virtually eliminating the gearbox notchiness and gear whine that is associated with some manufacturers’ kits.
How Does it Work?
To fully understand and appreciate the beauty and benefit of the RE Weighted Selector Rod, we must first revisit the mechanics of a short shift kit. When a short shift kit is installed, the throw reduction is directly proportional to an increase in shift effort. In simple terms, if a short shift kit reduces throws by 30%, then the effort required to shift into gear increases by the same amount (30%). While some people find this increase acceptable, others do not like the increased gearbox "notchiness" that is associated with the increased effort. The latter group describes the increased notchiness as a decrease in gearbox smoothness, and a departure from the feeling of refinement that led them to choose BMW in the first place.
The Rogue Engineering WSR replaces the factory selector rod with a higher quality, CNC'd 303 stainless version that has significantly greater mass. This mass, added on the low side of the shifter assembly, is completely hidden from the user’s view, but its benefits are obvious. Honda (known for its silky-smooth short-throw shifters) uses heavy cables to actuate the shifting. Now the secret is out for BMWs.

The Rogue Engineering OCTANE short shift kit comes complete with all necessary parts for a professional or do-it-yourself install. Installation times will vary with experience and available resources (access to the underside of the vehicle is required).
Parts that are included with the kit are:
Rogue Engineering OCTANE Short Shifter Lever

Rogue Engineering Shifter Carrier with Pivot Relocation Adapter (not all models)
Rogue Engineering Delrin Carrier Bushings (not all models)
Factory replacement washers, clips and grease
Factory replacement carrier pin (not all models)
Fully detailed installation directions.
