Not gonna lie.....this project looked a bit complicated but you nailed it! What a nice video with super clear descriptions. Very enjoyable to watch.

@prballpythons2826 Год назад

Note if you’re doing this yourself… do not get the cheap snap ring pliers. There isn’t enough tension on them to lift the ring. Also make sure the tips come close enough together to grab the ring. Overall…. I had a lot of fun doing the installation! Good luck!

@chuckcribbs3398 Год назад

The amount of work to replace is insane…but worth it in the end.

my local Subaru dealer installed the BW short shifter, Perrin intake, exhaust. Shifter is short and tight needing effort , Shift knob sits low. Ordered BW shift extender and different shift knob for leverage. Just these few upgrades have transformed the car from stock. l am loving this BW short shifter wow. inatke on stock tuning make a difference. and steering wheel upgrade so cool.

@paulmarsdensr1095 Год назад

A great install man. 👌 Subies forever.

@chrischarles9218 Год назад

Another mod I definitely NEED. I feel I've mastered the factory shifter and am almost afraid to mess with it but all those that have added a shorty claim its worlds better.

@SubiSpeed Год назад

Awesome! If anything a short throw will make your shifts that much more effortless, it is a great mod for those who like driving

@WallsAndFoundations Год назад

Worth every penny of the install. Me n a buddy knocked out the install in an evening together and WOW it's night and day.

@bk3540 Год назад

Great mod, worth the money! Love the content Foster!

@luisrosario9862 Год назад

Very good instructional video. Are going to change the shifting plate and bushing next?

@beerleagueeverything8030 Год назад

After owning a handful of miatas, this design is insanity.

@mistamaog Год назад

I didn't think there'd be so many steps 🥲

@SubiSpeed Год назад

It’s a bit time consuming but not complicated. You got this!

@mistamaog Год назад

@@SubiSpeed Haha thanks! First I gotta get the car, fingers crossed 🤞

@WallsAndFoundations Год назад

Lots of steps but not a hard install at all! Just follow the steps and you'll get it done. Make sure you buy a good set of snap ring pliers!

@asermekonnen1265 Год назад

Nice 👍🏾 I wanna throw a short throw on my 2018 WRX ❤. It’s been two months since I got her.

@SubiSpeed Год назад

The installation process is almost identical and the Billetworkz shifter will fit the VAs as well :)

@asermekonnen1265 Год назад

@gabrielaguilar8811 Год назад

Nice 👍

@kinosgarage Год назад

How much better/shorter is this than the STI shifter that comes with some of the Premium packages? My 2022 WRX came with an STI shifter.

@samael1981 11 месяцев назад

I just bought my 2023 WRX that came with the OEM short throw shifter. How is this shifter different from that one?

@WJS03 11 месяцев назад

For some reason I can not remove the 10mm bolts after removing the shifter from the larger shifter housing. I installed a Boomba shifter stop shortly before installing this and believe that may be the problem…

@joserizal2450 Год назад

will this be compatible with cobb stage 1+ package? was contemplating on which one to buy if i set the shifting plate to 35% from cobb if i throw in a short throw shifter will it be too short just wondering before i buy stuffs no hate spread love

@Oregon_FA24 4 месяца назад

Can you think of why my shifter won't move left or right any after I got everything clipped in underneath and my dust cover back on?

@Sumdumbwelder 5 месяцев назад

Now question here my car came with the Sti short throw but I’m new to the car world always messed with diesel trucks…is this shifter upgrade better then the Sti short throw

@Biohazard-so9sh Год назад

Is your wrx on bags? Why is it so low? It looks amazing

@jxckmsn 5 месяцев назад

Silly and late question, do you just buy the shifter and not the full kit? 2023 vb wrx here.

@hieroglyphikz7132 24 дня назад

Did you put back the heat/dust shield? Or does it not fit with the new assembly?

@DaHiddenGemz Год назад

Just picked up my first subie, a 22 WRX and this will probably be the first thing I mod! Stock shifter is just too mushy.

@ubroberts5541 Месяц назад

The stock shift is just fine. It’s not “mushy” at all if you are an experienced three pedal driver.

@DaHiddenGemz Месяц назад

@@ubroberts5541 yeah and if you actually modify a vehicle, it is mushy... If you like it that way then good for you.

@WallsAndFoundations Год назад

Will there ever be a 4-corner shifter stop Ala Perrin Ultimate shifter stop that works with the Billetworkz ss? Awesome install video btw!

@SubiSpeed Год назад

The Perrin shutter stop is compatible with the billetworks short shifter!

@ramanmishra7557 Год назад

@subispeed I'm confused why your description listed a "Subaru STI Short Throw Shifter" but in the video you only removed the WRX shifter then installed the BilletWorkz and FactionFab parts?

@SubiSpeed Год назад

just giving people another short throw option if they are interested!

@RI-yw8hm Год назад

Do u know if the short throw shifter comes on the Limited trim? Thinking about getting one this weeknd.

@SubiSpeed Год назад

STI short shifter is an optional add on, but I'm pretty sure you have to spec it that way

@RI-yw8hm Год назад

@@SubiSpeed okay thank you!

@raulcasas-dolz2666 Год назад

Can it be done with jack stands and not a lift

@SubiSpeed Год назад

Yes it can, just jack it up on each side and place jack stands front and back. other than that the install process is the same!

@jeremyhutabarat6725 Год назад

i was installing this on my buddy’s car and we lost 5th. i’m not seeing it snag on anything but i’m not sure what else to do. anyone have any advice?

@jeremyhutabarat6725 Год назад

i installed the shifter stop first and lost 5th

@alexisgueits7684 5 месяцев назад

I just did it (today) and lost 5th gear as well... Did you guys figure it out?

@alexisgueits7684 4 месяца назад

Did this yesterday but the car won't shift into 5th gear... All the other gears are fine. Any advice?

@kristofferdelrosario1105 4 месяца назад

Adjust your 5th-6th factory shifter stop.

@alexisgueits7684 4 месяца назад

Thanks! Figured it out... but it took me a long time (like 1 day) 🤦🏽‍♂️🙆🏽‍♂️ @@kristofferdelrosario1105

@peejread2309 Год назад

Will it be the same if you upgrade to the sti shifter direct from subaru?

@BelowAverageGaming707 Год назад

This one is alot shorter from what I hear.

@Patriot_wrx 11 месяцев назад

STI shifter is virtually the same as WRX. 10 percent shorter, still loose, still crunchy. The real STI difference is the actual transmission, clutch, etc. This one is supposedly 35-55 percent shorter than the STI one.

@peejread2309 11 месяцев назад

@@Patriot_wrx thanks for the info. Do you know if this shifter voids warranty?

@Patriot_wrx 11 месяцев назад

@@peejread2309 Subaru legally cannot void your warranty. They can, however, refuse repairs. They can only refuse repairs if they know for certain that the aftermarket modification affected the current issue at hand. Therefore, it’s safe to assume that installing an aftermarket shifter and/or, doing shifter work on your own, would risk Subaru not fixing/replacing transmission and parts, shifter and it’s parts, shift cable, clutch, etc.

@Falconxr8 Год назад

Do you think this would be worth it if I'm daily driving the car?

@SubiSpeed Год назад

Absolutely, just block off plenty of time for the install preferably a weekend or something like that. Should take 3-4 hours

@ryanyob506 Год назад

I did it to my '22. took me a couple hours but mainly because i had never done it before. it is my daily driver, so much better than stock

@ubroberts5541 Месяц назад

Short throw shifter? Longer gears would be much better. I own a 2023 WRX. It has plenty of power for longer gears. My only complaint about my car.I call first gear the snow gear. 😊
