November 9, 200421 yr I picked up a Nardi wheel and shifter from another board member and was going to install them into the kids 3dr but decided I'd like them more. I believe these came from a JDM Impreza. Full sized images can be seen in my gallery, http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=5
November 9, 200421 yr the new wheel looks great! wonder how well something like that would fit in my wagon???
November 9, 200421 yr you need to cut that ****er down so you dont punch your heater controlls when you shift. i cut mine down about 4 inches shorter than stock, i like it lots.

November 9, 200421 yr Author wonder how well something like that would fit in my wagon??? It will bolt right into a gen3 vehicle. I had to modify it to fit the Brat. Basically, I cut out the hubs from the Nardi and the stock wheel. Then rewelded the stock hub onto the Nardi. It required me to enlarge the hole to fit it though. Arch, I plan to cut it down later. (I am actually going to try and fab a short shifter for the Brat) It is about the same height as stock just looks and feels better.
November 9, 200421 yr fab a short shifter? i cut them down then weld the threaded part back on you gonna try for an actual short throw shifter? i drove a honda with an actual short throw, and it was crazy, i liked it alot.
November 16, 200421 yr Hey Ken, I've had mine for over a year. I just used the Momo hub/adapter. They are really rare, but they are out there.
November 17, 200421 yr Nice work, wheel looks bloody factory mate! As for the short throw shifter, I made one for my Brat. Little grinding, little welding on the connection piece from the tranny to the shifter. (part notorious for causing a sloppy shifter). And a spacer is needed to lengthen the distance from the pivot to the fulcrum on the botton of the shifter. (I used a 1/4" pipe nipple) I have picts and a drawing if you are interested.

November 18, 200421 yr Sorry no, I used the proven "slot and bolt "method to cure the slop. Well you may have seen the drawing there as I did both at the same time. I should do a retro post on both and quit h-jackin' Ken's knob an wheel post.
