Overview

The Kartboy Short Throw Shifter is a direct swap for your factory shifter, designed to provide a crisp gear change experience for your 2002-2007 Subaru WRX.
Show original supplier description
The Kartboy KB-002-WRX is a performance short throw shifter engineered to significantly enhance the shifting experience in compatible Subaru WRX and Legacy models. This shifter replaces the factory unit, offering a substantial 40% reduction in shift throw, which translates to quicker and more precise gear changes. Complementing this is a 1-inch reduction in shift knob height, creating a more driver-focused and sporty feel within the cabin. Constructed from durable 4130 Cr-Mo steel, the shifter is CNC machined and TIG welded for maximum strength and longevity. It is proudly made in the USA and backed by a 5-year manufacturer's warranty. Installation is designed to be straightforward, requiring basic mechanic's tools and typically taking under 30 minutes. This shifter is specifically designed for the 2002-2007 Subaru WRX. It is also compatible with the 2000-2004 Subaru Legacy. Please note that while the product title and general fitment indicate compatibility with 2002-2007 WRX models, one source indicates that it "WON'T FIT YOUR VEHICLE" and suggests trying alternatives, implying potential fitment nuances or specific sub-model compatibility issues that buyers should verify.
