westu37 Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Hey all, Maybe someone can direct me to a thread or has some info for me. I'm trying to repair my friends gen 1 legacy. His shifter is really worn out and I'm trying to find som salvage parts for his car, and possibly a sts in the process. WILL 2nd or 3rd gen manual trans shifter asseblies work in this first gen? Is there any similar parts used in another subaru, like the impreza line? My main goal is to get the shifter in close to new feel, but if I can introduce my friend to the benifit of the short throw shifter I can't resist. Thanks, Wes.

burnout8488 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 How does a shifter wear out? I only ask because if the shift quality is terrible, an sts will only make it worse. Check his bushings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westu37 Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 yes you're right. I'm looking for the entire shifter assy. I did a likkle research on a first gen legacy forum and found that any shifter assy from an imprezza up to 03 should work. also with converting the shifter assy, i should be able to add a short throw.
