    So I kinda feel dumb asking this, but neither Curly nor I have any idea.....Will a short shifter for a 02-04 WRX work in the tranny of my 98RS? Both are 5sp...

    I believe so. Measure the width of the boss for the linkage between the two. IIRC that was the only thing to change until 08 wrx/05+ lgt where the ball size was increased to 1". If anything give it a try?

    Well, I'm finding a lot of short shifters that are compatible with both, so I'm going to assume yes.
