The World’s Finest Shifting Experience

The ultimate shifting upgrade has arrived for your Subaru WRX. The DM-1 Shifter, designed specifically for 2008–2014 models, represents the peak of performance shifting technology. Built from a lifelong pursuit to redefine driving precision, this patented design is fully handcrafted in the USA by DARKMATTERX. Replacing the complete OEM assembly, the DM-1 delivers razor-sharp mechanical shifts and creates a direct, unbreakable connection between you and your Subaru.

 

DM-1 WRX Kit Components

The DM-1 Shifter Subaru WRX (2008–2014) kit includes the advanced DM-1 Shifter unit along with the DM-1 Precision Shift Arm. Together, these components work seamlessly to provide maximum control and accuracy while integrating cleanly into your WRX’s setup. This isn’t just a shifter—it’s a complete performance system designed to elevate every shift.

 

Built for Precision and Control

Every element of the DM-1 is engineered for uncompromising performance. Its chassis-mounted design locks the shifter firmly in place under the harshest driving conditions without requiring drilling or modifications, while the Precision Shift Arm replaces the OEM arm to provide the most accurate movement possible. The billet aluminum centering mechanism, with twin detents and a ceramic-coated torsion spring, ensures flawless gear engagement and banishes missed shifts for good.

 

Adjustable and Driver-Focused

With the tool-free adjustable shift knob height, the DM-1 allows drivers to fine-tune height by more than an inch, right at the leather boot collar—no tools or disassembly needed. This flexibility makes it easy to adapt the throw and knob position for both street comfort and track precision. The integrated cable-free reverse lockout system adds rigidity to the 5th and 6th gear stops while providing direct reverse engagement. For 5-speed models, the lockout mechanism is included, though not utilized.

 

Confidence, Quality, and Compatibility

The DM-1 is designed to give drivers confidence behind the wheel with features like the reinforced 1st and 2nd gear shift stop, which provides unmatched rigidity and a firm, consistent feel. Installation is straightforward, bolting directly into factory mounting points with no specialty tools needed. Each shifter is carefully hand-assembled and tested by DARKMATTERX to guarantee superior quality and reliability. To top it off, the DM-1 is fully compatible with OEM Subaru shift knobs, ensuring seamless integration into your WRX interior.
