    I have an STI short throw kit on my WRX. I just wanted to improve the shift action. Would the Kartboy bushings improve the feel of the shifter?

    Why not go straight to the source?

    www.Kartboy.com

    The shifter bushings are a great improvement.

    They are worth the money, if you want a solid/notchy feeling to your shifter =)

    i put them in a customers car at work and they made a big difference. he also put the cobb adj. shifter. bad design with the cobb shifter. it only could be adj. in one position that would not hit the councle.

    Get the rear onr too, make the shift much more solid, and the gear seems to be exactly where its supposed to be, no guess work like when you would randomly miss a shift cause parts had too much compliance!! The rear is a Bitch though, unless you have tiny hands!!

    I did both front and rear. install was very easy(using a lift) it just feels normal now but I remember the improvement was awesome when first installed. definately worth it in my opinion.
