This is an absolute MUST DO upgrade - I have a similar setup along with the rear diff bushings and there is ZERO slop in the way the car shifts, no "rocking" feeling in the trans
The counter weight increase increases the force to shift, increasing the chances of grinding gears. Those other frame mount upgrades aren’t needed. Just the trans mount. The JDM version of the STI N trans mount is actually a litter stiffer than the USDM group N mount.
I put a vsc pitch stop, perrin bushing billetworkz shift stop and sti short shifter on last week. Took the pitch stop off after 1 day. Cabin noise was horrible 😢
@@duecefoesubieOur cars are homologated to FIA Group N regulations, which is a category limited to relatively stock mass-produced road cars, but it does allow a few basic modifications. Subaru's "Group N" parts are STI-made parts designed to improve durability and performance over the stock parts, without compromising your car's Group N homologation, which lets you compete in a lot of regional and national-level rallies within that category. So, STI Group N parts aren't necessarily the best options if you're looking for the biggest possible performance upgrades, but they're well-engineered, well-made, and as far as I know, they're the only option if you want to enter any Group N rallies.
Great video! I’m just curious. The Cobb shift stop design and material seems to really makes sense. Cobb also makes a very high tech looking shifter bushing. I never hear anything about it or see anyone using it. Does anyone have experience with it?
i put this kit in my car but after a while of use there is a griding noise When I take my foot off the gas pedal When I press the clutch the sound disappears please does anyone know what the problem is
I own a 22 WRX with the oem STI short throw from the factory, and it still feels sloppy. It looks like he also has the oem STI short throw based on the shift knob that is installed.
If you experience transmission failure… I would expect resistance from your dealership to replace it under warranty. With that being said, if your window regulator goes bad, they will replace it. So installation of parts like this doesn’t necessarily “Void” your warranty.
@@BuckleUpGarage_ The perrin super shift stop reduces the vertical travel in addition to the horizontal. Perrin also provides hardware to tighten up the entire shifter assembly and the resulting shifts are far superior not to mention its made of aluminum instead of fiberglass so does not deform like the COBB did for me. All while remaining the same price.
i got the billetworkz shift stop. The vertical stoppers scared me cuz I wont to be sure it's all the way in gear. How has your set up been treating you? @@ziggyziggler
I have this set up pretty much, and a pitch stop and rear diff inserts. Amazing shifting, like butter
Glad to hear it, thanks for the feedback!

I fully agree! The results were excellent. Totally worth it for the money invested!
Thanks for the feedback will jump on this 🙌🏽

Get the OEM Group N one. It's great 👍
@@snoopyalien24 the "group n" pretty much sti parts?

Awesome video. Keep up the great work Jim and the gang.

Great vid!!
Thank you! 😊

Would lets say an OEM STi short throw shifter be beneficial with this set up given that you shortened the shift already with the shift plate? Thanks

If I didn't live in Canada I could do it, but with the shipping and duty it would be close to $500 here.
we can fix the price and shipping email sales@importimageracing.com :)
Wow, doesn’t get easier than that!!!
@@ImportImageRacingyou’re going to fix the fact that the exchange rate is $1.40!?
Would doing this “void” warranty?

The perrin shift stop is way better I bought both and tested.
Tell me more… What was your experience?
