04-21 Subaru STI COBB Tuning Stage 2 Drivetrain Package w/ Black Lockout

The Shifter Your Subaru Should Have Had From the Factory

Subaru builds excellent manual transmissions — and then puts a stock shifter in front of them that tells a completely different story. Long throws, flexible bushings, and a knob that feels like an afterthought. The Cobb Stage 2 Drivetrain Package for the Subaru fixes all of that in one purchase. Select your preferred knob color/style from the dropdown.

Stage 1+ Means Every Tactile Piece, Done Right

The Stage 2 Drivetrain Package adds the Cobb weighted shift knob to the Stage 1 foundation — a heavier knob that changes the feel of every shift by adding momentum to the throw. A heavier knob resists being rushed, which naturally makes the driver more deliberate through the gate. Combined with the Cobb Short Shifter and bushing kit, the entire shifter assembly is transformed: shorter throw, less slop, better weighting. The Subaru's manual transmission has always been capable — this package makes it feel like it.

Complete the Interior, Complete the Build

The Stage 2 package is a complete interior drivetrain overhaul in one box. Everything that connects your hand to the transmission on the Subaru is replaced with Cobb hardware: the shifter, the knob, the bushings, and the shifter plate. Installation requires no modification to the vehicle — every component is a direct bolt-in replacement at the factory location.

Straight From Subispeed

If you drive a manual Subaru and haven't done anything to the shifter yet, this package is the highest-impact upgrade you can make for under a few hundred dollars. The difference between the factory shifter and the Cobb setup is immediately noticeable — not subtle, not placebo. Every gear change feels intentional rather than approximate. The Stage 2 package is a complete solution rather than a collection of individually-sourced parts, which means everything is designed to work together from the start. This is one of those upgrades that makes you wonder why it wasn't standard equipment.

What's Included

• Cobb Short Shifter
• Weighted shift knob
• Shifter bushing kit
• Shifter plate

About Cobb Tuning

Cobb Tuning has been developing performance parts and tuning solutions for Subaru vehicles since 1999. Based in Austin, Texas, Cobb built their reputation on the Accessport — the most widely used Subaru ECU tuning device on the market — and expanded that into a full ecosystem of intake, exhaust, drivetrain, and engine bay accessories engineered specifically for the platforms they support. Every Cobb product is developed in-house and validated on their own test vehicles before it reaches customers. Subispeed carries the full Cobb catalog because their engineering standards and platform-specific development process consistently produce parts that work exactly as advertised.
