This Kartboy Short Shifter replaces the stock shift lever in 2004+ Subaru STI. Overall shift throw is decreased by 40%, providing a noticeable difference and a solid feel. The Shift knob height will also drop 1" as well. Constructed of CNC'd and TIG welded 4130 Cr-Mo steel. It will install with simple mechanic's tools in under 30 minutes. 

 

The Kartboy Shifter Bushings replace the stock shifter mount bushings in the 6-Speed 2004+ Subaru WRX STI. While this product will not change the geometry of the shifting mechanism, it eliminates excessive play in the system for a more solid gear change. This simple modification will make your shifter linkage feel 10x more solid . This product requires jacking of the car and jackstands are mandatory. Can be installed in 30 min and are accessible from underneath the car. The Polyurethane material is Grey for the STI. 

 

The Kartboy Rear shifter bushing replaces the soft factory rubber bushing. It works in conjunction with the Kartboy shifter bushings to help stabilize the shifter assembly mounting base. The rear bushing located underneath the car in the transmission tunnel, above the driveline. This will fit on the 5-Speed and 6-Speed Subarus.

 

The Kartboy Bushings are Hand Made in USA and are 100% Guaranteed.

Great and well needed upgraded

Moderate level of install. Not difficult, but take your time. The shifter is tighter and really satisfying with every shift. It almost falls into the next gear. Overall a great upgrade that improved the driving experience

So smooth!!!!

Makes that 6spd feels so smooth. The whine from the bushing is definitely awesome to hear. Install is not as bad as in the WRX.

Worth It To Me! Noticeable Difference Shifting

I was surprised with how loud the transmission whine is at first. I've had this for 4 months and put about 5k miles on it. Autocross event using launch control & flat foot shifting. No complaints at all once I got used to the whine. Think of it as positive feedback. Now it only gets my attention under certain conditions with RPMs & gear. Shifts are solid and it feels quite notchy. No guessing which gear you're trying to select. No slop or play from the shifter. Well worth it to me!

Kartboy shifter

First off will say it is worth the money if you were wondering. Was however a lengthy install 3-5 hours
A lot of finessing had to be done to get one of the bushings to fit. But it is a tighter and shorter shift. Oem shift was very loose before. 10/10 would recommend

Austin,

Thank you for your 5 Star Review and for providing feedback on the Kartboy Short Throw Shifter and Bushings Combo for the 2004-2021 STI. We appreciate your honesty about the installation process, acknowledging that it was a lengthy process, and required some finessing to get one of the bushings to fit. However, we are pleased to hear that the end result was a tighter and shorter shift compared to the loose feel of the OEM shift. Your recommendation and satisfaction with the kit are valuable insights for potential buyers. Enjoy your upgraded driving experience!
