Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Kartboy short throw shifter do?
A short throw shifter reduces the distance the shifter travels between gears — typically by 30–40% compared to factory. The result is faster, more precise gear changes and a more mechanical shift feel. On the WRX and STI, this is one of the most noticed and appreciated modifications for drivers who enjoy the manual transmission experience.
Is a Kartboy short throw shifter hard to install?
Installation is a moderate DIY job — it requires removing the centre console and gear selector assembly, but no special tools beyond basic hand tools. Most experienced DIYers complete the job in 2–3 hours. Kartboy includes installation instructions with their products.
