Overview
The Overtake Stage 1.5 Drivetrain Kit is a comprehensive manual transmission upgrade designed specifically for the Subaru WRX (2015-2026) and Crosstrek (2018-2023). This kit addresses the common issue of vague and sloppy factory shifter feel by combining four key components that work together to deliver shorter throws, tighter engagement, and a more connected driving experience. It’s ideal for Subaru enthusiasts seeking to improve shift precision and overall transmission responsiveness without sacrificing daily drivability.
Engineered with a focus on performance and durability, the kit includes a CNC-machined short shift transmission plate, brass shifter bushings, a shifter stop, and a weighted Delrin shift knob. Each component is designed to eliminate the flex and slop inherent in the factory rubber bushings and stock shifter geometry. Overtake’s approach emphasizes mechanical feel and driver feedback, restoring the direct connection between driver and transmission that Subaru owners expect from their manual cars.
By upgrading to this matched drivetrain kit, Subaru WRX and Crosstrek owners will experience more precise gear engagement, reduced shift throw by approximately 30%, and a solid, confident shifting feel. This translates into improved driver control and a more engaging driving experience, whether on the street or the track. The kit’s thoughtful design and quality materials ensure long-term durability and consistent performance, making it a valuable upgrade for any manual Subaru enthusiast.
