That second wiring harness was a backup camera install harness. I installed the Honda Fit backup camera on my Frs. This is the universal one that was from the 86 forum DIY.
I installed mine a few months ago. Lived with it for 10k or so. Really did not like the feel until I added the rear bushing and front carrier bushing. it really cleaned up shift feel. Solid thunk when engaging gears and zero slop. I ended up swapping back to the OEM shifter but kept the bushings. Wasn't a fan of the feel compared to stock. Now shifts are light and easy with very little slop, just from the OEM bushing where it connects to the shift rod.
been watching you for a while now and decided to look at short shifters and just my luck turns out you have a video on this one lol looks like I'm buying it
I like when you throw stuff on the ground. LOL! Also, its Torque Solution. No plural. I think its better sounding as Torque Solutions, but its not my company. Maybe they started with only one Solution. Anyhow, cool video as usual. And I don't even own a BRZ.
Fun little part to add on to increase the driving experience, should be going back to some STI goodies next week. Almost done getting the BRZ up to spec 🔥 lol throw it all on the ground 🤣
Not hating, because I've done it, but maybe the 'kid' that owned it before you thought he was an electrician. My first car (2000 dodge neon) looked like a damn spaghetti factory. Now that I know better, my wiring looks soooooo much better. Also I absolutely hate those marker lights on the FRS/BRZ. I do collision repair and more often than not I completly forget those have to come off in order to take the front bumper off. Great video as always, keep up the good work. Wooooo!!!!
I think we've all done it and looking back on when I first started working on cars and my wiring. Ooooooof it was awful. And those corner lights can burn in hell 🤣 they never stay in!
a lot of people replace the stock reverse lockouts cuz they are made out of cheap plastic and feel cheap. Some cars have a problem with them rattling while driving too.
@@Smeedia I hear that. I love how you explain everything so people know what to do and which route to decide going. I have a 19 wrx and your access port video was great since I almost have enough 💵 to grab one. 👍👍👍
Smeedia I can’t wait and of course man! I just started uploading again, gonna strive to put out content that’s as qualitative as yours! One of my favorite youtubers for sure and I only found ya yesterday. Much love!
so i don’t really need the dust boot? I also accidentally ripped mine out and am thinking about ordering a new one but is it okay to just put it back together without that boot?
I can relate to the mystery wires frustration lol I found some mystery wires in my WRX and I was not happy to find exposed wires just chillin' near the firewall.
Savagegeese did some forced induction work when the frs had just come out and after months of fab and professional mechanics working on it that thing was leaking oil so much he sold it. Scared me straight about the whole thing. I think itd be a fun track car to learn to drive and push your abilities but trying to push the car itself wouldnt be my choice.
Did your shifter happen to come with two small o-rings? If so, where were they installed? I can't find any information/instruction and haven't heard back from Torque Solutions. I'd greatly appreciate it, hopefully it stops this terrible rattling. 😅
@@Smeedia Thanks, I appreciate your response. It's looking like it's optional and goes on either side of the sifter along the linkage. Although the bushings on mine were so tight that the cotter pin is also optional. Don't think the shifter would come back off even if I wanted it to 😅. Thanks again.
I just got this short shifter installed at Subaru (throwout bearing went out so did whole clutch) and this shifter rattles a bunch. Is this normal? Did the tech do something wrong?
Found it funny when I got my car 2 years ago that sound was so annoying and I did everything from a zip tie to a piece of foam to try and stop the rattling and I just found just a few months ago about this, i was like where the hell was this info 2 years ago
@@reignerrrr0805 if you take off the shifter knob there is a screw on the top that goes down the middle of the shaft. You need an Allen key(not sure what size I used) tighten that. I eventually ended up switching back to the OEM shifter because I bought a new reverse lockout but was not compatible with the shortshifter.
Appreciate the feedback 🔥my main camera is the EOS R with the 15-35 RF lens, I use my girlfriends EOS R also with the 24-105 RF and my on the go camera is the Canon G7X Markiii
