Short Shifter | Subaru WRX 6spd (2015-2025)
KB-003-WRX
Your WRX deserves better than a long, vague throw. The Kartboy WRX 6spd Shifter and Bearing Kit gives your shifts the crisp, confident feel you’ve been missing. This setup reduces throw by 38% and adds counterweight to help each gear slide into place with a satisfying snap. Each shifter is investment cast from 4130 stainless for maximum durability.
Kit Includes: Shifter Arm and Shifter Bearing (KB-003-B)
Fitment: Subaru WRX (2015-2025), Crosstrek (2016-2020), Forester (2019-2020)
Installation Guide
This guide covers installing the Kartboy Short Shifter on 2015 and up WRX cable-shift transmissions. This install is done on a 2016 WRX but applies to all 2015+ cable-shifter applications. Everything in this guide happens underneath the car — you're swapping the shift plate on the transmission itself. Kartboy also offers this shifter as a combo with the Cable Shifter Lock, which installs from inside the cabin into the selector mechanism and further tightens up neutral-position slop. That's a separate job covered in its own guide — this one is strictly the under-car install.
