On average, their shifters increase feel by around 50 and throw works 40 more efficiently. Well, now you can get them at our store no matter where you are in Australia. If you are a Subaru fan, you probably heard of them, and you want them. So yes only giving it 3 stars as it was not a direct swap but I would still recommend it, I do think its good value for the money, and as far as I can tell the quality is good as well. Kartboy Short Shifter products for all Subaru models are legendary. I do have to say now that I have it in I am quite happy with the look but know I know I really need to replace the lower shift linkage as the short throw shows how bad it really is. If you are ok with breaking out the angle grinder then go for it. If you do not have the means to modify parts this may not be t he shifter for you.

So be warned this is not a direct swap for an outback.Ĭonclusion, all and all still worth the money in my eyes. I was really hoping for a quick swap and that was not the case. Which means unless you have a lathe time to bring out a sander or grinder. I was thinking of doing the shifter and bushings from what I have heard the Kartboy and Cobb work with the STI sts. Constructed of CNCd and TIG welded 4130 Cr-Mo steel. 14wrxboy said: Hi, I have the factory installed STI short throw linkage on my 14 WRX and still would like a shorter throw. The Shift knob height will also drop 1' shofter then the factory shifter. Shift throw is decreased by 40, providing a noticeable difference and a solid feel. The link section where the bolts and bushings fit is almost an inch too wide. This Kartboy Short Shifter replaces the stock shift lever for a shorter throw shifter. The complete set decreases overall shift throw by 40 and the bushings combine to provide a noticeable difference. Stock bushings fit perfect (lucky for me I just replaced mine) Price was fair all said and done.Ĭhecked product fitment via the fitment thing and it says it should fit my 03 legacy outback 5 speed, well that was not the case. The Kartboy Short Shifter & Bushing Combo set includes Kartboys Short Shift Lever, front shift bushings and rear shifter bushing. Lower ball section fit and threads fit stock and after market shift knobs. Arrived in less than a week which was nice.

Not A Direct Swap For 03 Outback (modification needed)
