4002

Following on from our popular WRX short-shift kit, we have now released a new version to suit Subaru’s 6-speed gearbox found in all late-model STi’s, from MY02 and on.

As with our WRX kit, the GFB STi short shift kit includes a unique clamp arrangement that allows the shift throw to be reduced much more than by changing the gearstick alone. As you can see from the picture, the GFB clamp eliminates the need to lift the gearbox linkage higher to reduce shift throw. Instead, you simply select one of the three holes.

The factory shifter in an STi has a shift throw of 40mm per gate; the GFB unit is adjustable from the factory setting, right down to a tiny 22mm per gate! To put this into perspective, the best any aftermarket shifter (that replaces only the gearstick) can hope to achieve is 30mm per gate, without modifications to the linkages or surrounding bodywork.  The photos opposite show the stock STi shifter vs the GFB shifter from 3rd to 4th gear.

Installation is done completely from within the car, and is made much easier with the inclusion of a special tool for removal and installation of the reverse lock-out cable pin. Typically the installation can be completed within 20 minutes

GFB Warranty

Built-in Obsolescence? Not with GFB!

We live in a throw-away society, conditioned by cheap products and frequently released new models, to expect eventual failure and discard something when it stops working or is superseded. However, pride in workmanship and our commitment to quality means that when we put our name to something, we are also staking our reputation on it.

That’s why we back our products with the best Warranty in the business! You should expect a lifetime of use from a well-engineered product, so if your GFB product fails as a result of defective materials or faulty workmanship whilst you remain the original owner, we will repair or replace it. For full warranty details, please visit the GFB Australia website.

If the fault of occurred as a result of usage outside of the terms of the warranty, or you are not the original owner, fear not, we can still help you. You should never need to throw a GFB product away, as spare parts are available and won’t cost the earth.

Tech Support: We don't have a "Tech Support" team or department. We have engineers. When you contact us through our tech support email, you will be dealing directly with the engineers who actually design GFB products. They have more experience with the product than anyone on the planet to ensure you get the right advice.
