Well folks. Looking for a bit of guidance. I know this has been answered before, but with no search function I can't go looking.

I have a Corsa GSi and the gearbox is what I would call "sloppy". The gearstick has a very loose feeling and I am looking to tighen it up.

I was going to order a quickshift anyway, but will this help tighen things up at all, or is there anything else I should consider?

Thanks

Depends how bad it is I spose. Been told thats the problem with mine, sometimes it struggles to go into gear and feels pretty loose. Could be wrong though...
