   B and M is smooth as and worth every penny. Firms the change up loads and takes alot less effort to shift.

    the griffiths extends the pivot point in linkage in the engine bay.. reducing gearstick movement.
    
    the b&m moves the pivot point on the gearstick, reducing gearstick movement.
    
    
    
    i went round his house to collect my quickshift. lol.

    and u may need to get new linkages to rose rods or somat or ul end up fking ur synchros up in ur gear box its all good n well having a quickshift but u also have to modify ur linkages aswell for there set up for the standard gearstick not shorter ones.
    
    if ur driving on country roads all the time then yes get one if u on A roads and motorways then pointless.
    
    B&M is the more expensive of the two for u get the whole lot gearstick etc etc Griffiths all u get is an adaptor u put onto ur linkage thingy (cant remember the name).
    
    personaly id rather get a rallye gear box or a vts gear box conversion.

    if you get the B&M you'll have a big, shiny knob that you can polish
