Because the STI changed from the previous year, it's different from 2018 so I don't think you should buy it
The grease does come with the kit, although there is no

The pros are I'm sure you know this! It is literally a fraction of the cost of Perrin, Kartboy, and so forth. I am very satisfied with it. It works as it should. I install it in a few minutes
Once again, the price is extremely high, and the cons are as follows I'm sure you know this! Nothing else to add to this list I'm sure you know this! Your shift stop should not be called by its brand name Since they can't see it, they can't do anything about it. You are welcome to tell people you have a Perrin shift stop with this sucker installed if that matters to you, otherwise we won't care. I'm sure you know this! has removed a tiny bit of slop in the gearbox and appears to work as it should. Bushings like these do not even have the brand names on them, so even if it does not matter who you tell, buy this one because it is cheap.

As this product perfectly meets its purpose, I don't see the need to order a name brand product. If you're wondering if it makes a difference, then you can buy this knowing it smooths out shifts and simplifies them. There's a subtlety to it, yet at the same time it's You just get a much smoother shifting experience if you do that. When I started driving my vehicle, I wasn't really sure whether it made much of a difference, but the more I drove, the more I noticed. There is no reason not to purchase this shift stop if you are considering ordering I would recommend it as a no brainer for the price. It's not difficult to install the shift stop, but it may require a little adjustment to place it where it's comfortable As installing the bushings requires getting underneath the vehicle, they are a bit more difficult. However, once you have them in place, they are My bushing could not slide on the peg the bushing goes over because it was corroded and would not allow the bushing to slide on. Thus, I used fine sandpaper to sand the peg until it was smooth. I just had to swipe two or three times and the bushing slipped into place. The bushing did not seem to differ much from the previous one. I think it would have been better if it were a little Having tightened down the shift stop in the correct position and not shifting as you tightened the screws down, I would guess that any problems others are experiencing have to do with lining up the shift stop in the correct position.

Does not fit Even when the stopper is pushed all the way to the left, it will not go into 1st gear. While I realize the year is 2015, I think it should be 2016. the fact that this looks the same as every other shifter that works on ANY 2015 + WRX shouldn't matter. Moreover, it mentions nowhere that it will not work with The only way to find out if you were to look through a lot of products is to look around. And, AND! The fact that I cannot return this is why I can't get a refund! fairly sure the seller is aware of what is about to happen. The other reviews seem to be contradicting each other now and I'm starting to doubt whether it will work for a 2015 model, since virtually everything about the 2015+ WRX is the same. purchased this with Amazon Prime and somehow received it four days after I ordered it! Who is this seller and what are they doing? I'm not sure why people would use some strange product that has the potential to endanger their lives.

There are going to be some people who will not like this product. There will be a metal element to your shifts and a little bit of knot in them. As a result of installing a similar part on my last car, I'm accustomed to this. TC is a Scion car. In terms of the difference in the WRX, it might not be as drastic as in the last car, but it does offer a different experience. There's nothing to worry about when you have a 0 score The hottest cars in the world are 60, but life is really all about the feels. As long as you know how to jack up your car and put it on stands, the installation was not bad at all. Stands help keep you safe, so that your car won't crush you.

Hardware is not included, but there are some issues with the instructions. A 2021 Crosstrek 6MT is equipped with these parts. Using the stop, I was able to eliminate lateral slop in the first and second fields. Having the brass bushing makes the shifter feel rougher without the cushioning of the OEM product. I was able to install the shift stop by following the instructions, but I did not have success tying the bolts tight because they bottomed out. It took me a few minutes with a Dremel to remove some millimeters from my bolts, but I recommend Crosstrek owners visit a hardware store and get slightly shorter bolts before attempting the installation. There were no instructions included with my kit to install the bushing, so I searched YouTube for a video. Several videos I found said to reuse the stock washer from the OEM bushing, but my OEM bushing didn't have a When the cable end didn't have a washer, the brass bushing had excessive lateral play, and the cable end could come off if the o-ring failed When it comes to cotter pins, the only thing holding it in place would be the rings. Fortunately, I found a thick stainless washer in my parts bin that I found appropriate to eliminate play in the cable and keep the cable end from coming off the end of the o-ring Various ring types. Therefore, the parts of the kit are functional, but I took out a star because the bolts do not match and the bushing includes no instructions.

They don't indicate these are for the 18+ manual Crosstrek, but they are. In my experience, many parts of my 17 WRX interchange with those from my 15 WRX. This part and even the STI short shifter have been plagued by emblems, shift stops and other issues. A very useful tip I learned that greatly improved my wife's driving experience in our Crosstrek.
Tip You will need to spend at least 10 minutes to install if you don't follow the instructions correctly. The splash cover must be removed with a 12mm short socket. The pin holding the bushing to the cable can be removed with needle nose pliers. To pop it off, you need a screwdriver. It is important to note Be sure to install the shifter cable with the large side of the bushing facing in.
