This is the one I am looking at on the Subaru parts website:
https://parts.subaru.com/p/Subaru__B...1010CA100.html These are the ones I am considering through Subispeed: STI JDM Short Shifter (6MT) https://www.subispeed.com/sti-short-...-6mt-2013-ft86 (is a Subaru part, from what I understand, and may be the same as above) FT-86 Speedfactor Short Throw Shifter https://www.subispeed.com/ft-86-spee...fter-2013-ft86 recommended addition of MTEC Shift Spring Kit https://www.subispeed.com/mtec-shift-spring-kit |

The MTEC springs and a polyurethane shifter stay bushing improve the feel of the stock shifter, notably the centering return and engagement into the gears. I'd suggest trying that combo before buying a shifter. If you want to take it a step further, the shift lever bushings can be replaced as well. https://www.rallysportdirect.com/par...tainer-bushing There was a new part number for the shifter for 17+ models, but I've yet to read if there is actually a difference. |

I appreciate the feedback. Definitely leaning toward the STI version possibly along with the springs. As far as I know, they can be used together. Please let me know if anyone knows.

Again, I would suggest the springs, stay bushing and even the lever bushings before buying the STi shifter. You may find stock is adequate with the action firmed up. |

Just an FYI, but the springs are not a fun install. Be patient or you will cross thread the retaining plugs.

What are the other part numbers besides the springs and will those part work with any shifter including the STi?

Found this thread which makes it seem like it would work on all BRZ models.
