STi 6-Speed Short Shift Kit Following on from GFB's popular WRX short-shift kit, GFB has now released a new version to suit For Subaru’s 6-speed gearbox found in all late-model STi’s, from MY2 and on. As with GFB's WRX kit, the GFB STi short shift kit includes a unique clamp arrangement that allows the shift throw to be reduced much more than by changing the gearstick alone. As you can see from the picture, the GFB clamp eliminates the need to lift the gearbox linkage higher to reduce shift throw. Instead, you simply select one of the three holes. The factory shifter in an STi has a shift throw of 4mm per gate; the GFB unit is adjustable from the factory setting, right down to a tiny 22mm per gate! To put this into perspective, the best any aftermarket shifter (that replaces only the gearstick) can hope to achieve is 3mm per gate, without modifications to the linkages or surrounding bodywork. The photos opposite show the stock STi shifter vs the GFB shifter from 3rd to 4th gear. Installation is done completely from within the car, and is made much easier with the inclusion of a special tool for removal and installation of the reverse lock-out cable p Typically the installation can be completed within 2 minutes.
