Anyone knows if 02-07 WRX complete shifter assembly can replace 95 BK one? 95 fork joint at shifter looks bent 45 degree while WRX is more straight.

If you replace the shifter knuckle and all it works. I've got an 02 wrx shifter assembly with a kartboy short shifter in my 97.

I had to keep the BK/95 shifter arm/wobble bushing part and swapped out WRX plastic base/shifter socket/hockey puck assembly, then I can use WRX short shifter with small socket. BK/95 socket shifter is very big compare to WRX socket and finding short shifter for it is difficult. All KB/Ebay shifter have small socket type. Bought some nylon flange bushings from McCaster P/N 6389K624 for $8 to fix shifter wobble issue and KB front/rear shifter bushings too.

Mine is this type since there are 2 types.
