I've just had my shifter bush kit installed (cheers to Jez and Shah at Pole Position). The kit arrived from Alyn very promptly, well-packaged with plenty of bubble wrap to keep it safe in transit. It's made a massive difference to the shift, very positive now. On my car noise is a little increased (minor whine from the 'box) but it's normal, and a small trade-off for such a fantastic feeling shift

I've not read the whole thread, but is it an easy DIY fit?

Resurrecting an ageing thread perhaps, but I have just had a set of these bushes from ASP fitted to my 05 Blob. The difference in gear selection precision is like night and day.
As Frayz has said and extremely good value for money mod

Hmmm consider me sold. I came to my 05 sti from a 2010 civic type r which had an almost digital gearshift. The impreza is more like a stick in syrup so I'll definitely get a set ordered.

Nope, both 5 and 6 speed kits available guys. Go get some and see what I mean about "bolt action rifle" style shifts.

none of those are our kit Banny, although we do tend to supply the Kartboy rear transmission bushing (simply because its so cost effective and relatively minor change to shift quality).........

our 6spd kit includes the (2x) pairs you require for the linkage UJ, the lower large bushing on the side of tranfer box and also the internal pair required where the linkage joins the stick - to my knowledge no company offers so comprehensive a kit

pics are all on FB

Hi Alyn, I presume this kit doesn't affect the throw at all, just tightens the tolerances?

Thanks

Morning,
Just reviving this thread. I'm building a classic 5 speed as a track day toy and want a short shift on it but also want a tight action on the shift. Is this kit still available?
Cheers,
Andy.

yes we do options for pretty much all of the 5spd / 6spd variants although there are some specific differences so best to contact the office direct to sort

normally all in stock as we find these a very popular and cost effective upgrade
