My first mod was a billetworkz shift stop and shifter and it really does make a huge different of the feeling in each shift. For $35 bucks it’s a no brainer mod👍 and it took 15 min to install
Bought the BilletWorkz shift stop on your recommendation for my 2022 WRX. Best $35 I've ever spent. Great video and thanks for the fantastic recommendation. Gained a sub!
The perrin version comes with two little washers that you're supposed to put on the left side front and back. I never understood those washers, and billets works doesn't have those.
Great video !! I plan to do that but ….. , does anyone with the factory short shifter know if it does same thing ? ( my car not here yet ) BTW off topic , did your front window tint fix itself ?
I've installed these on my VA wrx and never had an issue installing without locktite, but it also wouldn't hurt if you want a little extra peace of mind.
Just installed a Cobb shifter plate, Cobb bushing and Cobb shift stop. I normally would not install this as I am not mechanically inclined. Your videos made it doable even though it took me a long time. Because I only have ramps, it made it tough to work under the car. Removing the pin was the hardest part. I didn’t have leverage and I didn’t have the right angle on the pin so it didn’t move for a while. With the Cobb shifter plate, I was able to keep the dust shield on. If I had to remove that bolt from the top, I may have given up. Not sure how you got it off as none of my tools would fit up there to get it. The throws now are really short. More than I though it would be. I love it as the stock setup was very sloppy. Thank you! Keep up the good work.
Had one on my last wrx and it failed. Although it was the sti version for my sti transmission swap. Idk if I would take the risk for as much as they cost.
I haven't really found a need for that as usually once it's in gear I have no issue with the forward to back slop. My issue was without the shift stop getting it into first and second gear felt sloppy.
I have seen the updated Perrin one. It is nice, however it doesn't actually shorten the throws, it just removes some un-used space or Slop in the shifter when the gear is engaged. But It does look nice!
I, Austin, owner and engineer behind Billetworkz, don’t recommend their super shift stop. The super shift stop from Perrin direct effects gear engagement, as it is limited forward and backward movement. A standard shift stop, like what we offer, does not effect gear engagement, as it only effects side to side play. In other words, the internals of the transmission should be what stops the forward and backward travel of the shifter. You don’t not want a physical stop against the shifter effecting gear engagement. Let me know if you have any questions!
@@Billetworkz I have a question. The Perrin version comes with two little washers you're supposed to put on the left side of the shifter assembly. I don't really understand what those washers are for, do you know why they included those?
By Up/down Slop do you mean foward-backwards Slop when on gear or the actual Shifter being able to move up and down in the assembly? The foward-backwards Slop is present in the 2022 but I've yet to figure out a way to fix it. A short shifter helps but doesn't completely eliminate it.
@@StreetInspired1 On the VA, select any gear and you can still wiggle the shifter up and down. Similar to the side/side before adding the shift stop. My understanding is that it is slop in the cable where it connects to the shifter but the clevis has no adjustment.
