One of the consequences of installing that console up front, is relocating
and shortening the shifter throw. I drove Leon's first 2.2 Subie conversion
in Moab years ago (this one I think), and the most noticeable improvement,
aside from motor performance, was what shortening that shifter linkage did
to the positive feedback feel of shifting. I was amazed at how much
difference it made. Doesn't even feel like a vanagon, which tends to have
that vague, sloppy feel.
By the way, NO, I'm not Leon's marketing dept. ;-) ... but I am a fan.
