New from GFB is the STi 6-speed Short Shift Basic Kit, which has been designed as an infinitely more affordable alternative to STi’s own aftermarket shifter.
It is derived from the popular and unique GFB STi short shifter (GFB-4002), which consists of two main parts; the gear lever and the linkage clamp, which work together to allow shift-throw adjustment over the largest range of any shifter on the market.
The new Basic kit utilizes the adjustable gear lever from the 4002 kit, without the linkage clamp. This means the Basic kit allows shift throw adjustment, but over a smaller range. Importantly however, it is easily upgraded to the GFB-4002 kit with the addition of the linkage clamp.
So why choose the Basic over the GFB-4002 kit?
When using the full GFB-4002 kit, most users find that the shorter settings are actually too extreme for their taste (particularly on MY06-08 models, as the factory shift is shorter than earlier versions), and only end up using a small amount of the shifter’s range. In such cases, the Basic kit gives the same result at a lower price.
If however you decide that you want to go shorter, you can always purchase the linkage clamp separately and upgrade to the full GFB-4002 kit at a later date – it really is win-win!
As with the GFB-4002 full kit, installation of the Basic kit is all done from within the car in about 30 minutes, and is made all the easier with the inclusion of GFB’s brilliant and unique pin-press tool – when you use it you’ll know why we included it and wonder why others don’t!
So how much shorter is the throw?
The GFB Basic kit is adjustable from the factory setting down to around 32-35mm per gate (depending on year model).
Add the linkage clamp and the possible throw range drops to a miniscule 20-22mm (see photos opposite – these show the factory shifter vs the GFB full kit on a 3rd to 4th gearshift)!
GFB’s Short Shift kits are like no other. Until you feel the action of one for yourself, you won’t believe the difference!
True to GFB's philosophy of Performance Without Compromise, GFB’s Short Shift Kits are designed with a unique linkage system that means the shift throw is fully adjustable whilst retaining the stock gearstick height and requiring NO modifications to the transmission tunnel. That means you can simply bolt one on, adjust it the way you want it, and get a positive and direct “race car” shift feel!
We’ve also made the installation as easy as possible. GFB's 6-speed Subaru kits include a specially designed pin removal tool for the reverse cable. Suffice to say, you’ll appreciate what a great touch this is when you install the kit.
Fits 6 Speed gearboxes only.
