Quick Shift Upgrade?

I was thinking about it today and thought it would be really cool if we(the guys with AT) had the option to swap out to a quick shifter the kind that you just move the stick up or down as you need to shift, any one know if there would be a quick shift transmission that would be able to fit on the lanos?

a 1994 cavalier has the same shifter and B&M makes one for like $200 or so. looks pretty cool but not cool enough for that price.

hmmm that isn't bad, I am sick of not having any control over the car and I don't want a full on manual because driving back and forth in trafiic everyday would just kinda suck with a stick, so this is something I may look into.

you know what i'm sorry i was talking about the manual tranny.

my bad

as for what your looking for you might wanna ask chris from daewootech.net he used to make them and i think he has one for sale right now for a lot less than $200. he goes by exiledwoo or something like that here. just go to the .net site and get in contact with him there. now its just the shifter itself not another transmission.

I have 15+ hours a week with manual.. only time i wish i have auto is when im in stop and go traffic on the freeway... other than that i dont think manual is any kinda hassel. I eat while im driving in the city sometimes too (if traffic isnt bad, lol)

well see I spend about 10+hours a week in stop and go traffic about 2 hours each day and my lanos is my only car, but if I had a choice for a second car I would definately have a manual, but the hills in san francisco are pretty gnarly for driving with a manual but I have done it plenty of times and is no problem.
