Kartboy Shifter for 5mt
I was taking a shot in the dark when I order my shifter and bushing. I was basically just hoping it would fit and work with my linkage. Well it turns out everything lined up perfectly and all I have to say is WOW!! The precision of the shifts and the rigidity of them is absolutely amazing. I would suggest anyone to get this packaged deal it is astonishing.

What exactly is included with the shifter in the "package" deal? You have a link to where you purchased the goods?

Btw, what ever happened with your rear quarter panel? Did you get another one off of Ebay or have a body shop fix it? -Chike

still all messed up. The person wanted 180 dollars for shipping plus the 95 it sold for is more than it would cost to get it from subaruparts.com. So i bailed on that. Body work will be done by your's truely once i get out of school for the summer. I am debating getting a bumper cover for the front or to get a bra to cover it. BTW Chike i got the clear headlights and corner lights as a Xmas gift and they look frigin awsome, you should invest in them and a 97 grille. Those are my plans at least. Also, when are we gonna drag? you comming out to ATCO this spring to get your butt whipped?

I plan on getting the smallcar grille instead of the '97, but it may not happen until the summer. Still finishing up my Winter mods. ![]() Not sure about Atco, but if there's drag racing at Reading then we'll have at it. My money will be on your car. ![]() -Chike

i do hope there is drag racing there as it is fun as hell. I hope the PWR Radiator will be here by then. Since Chris has gotten his, no word on final production has been heard and I am 1st on the list of recipients. I am still waiting patiently. I am also getting the silicone hoses from dayle which should keep me cool, no pun intended. Well i am getting antsy for reading how bout u?

im gonna check to see if that is one of the activities. I have only been to the two meets I have held and i have had a good time with only a few people. I think a huge group like that will be a good time.

really sounds great, just wondering which one you bought. Was it for the impreza, forseter, ect?

i bought the one for the 97+ legacy. I figured sine my trans was a legacy model there was little difference in the years. turns out I was relatively correct in that assumption.

I will have to look into this upgrade. I think GreenMarineSVX upgraded his shifter bushings as well.
My plans are to upgrade my engine mounts, transmission mount, pitch stopper and clutch hose first.

if you find a way to upgrade the motor mounts let me know. I would love to get the STi trans mount and stiff motor mounts. When we did the twin turbo swap in my bro's tt 300zx i notice that we have similar mounts but since it has been a while since then(2years) i cannot recall the specific features of this. If anyone has extra time they might want to look into it.
