Two tips for your WRX mate:
1. Perrin shifter stop. It'll make shifting so much better feeling. It eliminates the shifter gate slop that's prevalent from the factory.
2.. If you aren't worried about tuning, a tune goes a hell of a long way in these cars. It literally made a night and day difference in the way mine drives. The throttle-by-wire system in the WRX is very touchy in stock form. 30% throttle pretty much equals 100%. Tuning eliminates that, and gives you a natural pedal travel. Not to mention the stock tune is just junk.
Anyways, have fun, and welcome to the Subaru family!
For anyone wondering, it's a T300 RS wheel, TH8A Shifter and T3PA pedal set. All from Thrustmaster. The chair is a Challenge from Playseat. And a PSVR, obviously.
Edit: /u/StephenSchleis requested that I add Amazon links, so here you go.

Bonus tip, the T3PA pedals come with the conical brake mod. It’s well worth installing. Also, cut out a piece of carpet and stick it to the pedal base for a bit of extra comfort.
Get a Thrustmaster wheel over the Logitech wheels. The technology in the Thrustmaster wheels is far far superior to the notchy gear drive of the Logitech. I suggest getting the following
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015KJ0SES/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_3?pf_rd_p=1944687622&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B004J6KRD6&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0ET5925JQKKMT3HMJ4TA
You get a full size rim (logitech uses a very small unrealistic rim size.) You can also add a shifter if you prefer that.

Could get the cheaper T300 GT if you want but the alcantera rim is worth it for that small price increase.
Entirely depends on your budget - but at the very least something with Force Feedback, like the Logitech g29 with shifter - that's a very common setup. $200-450 is the figure you'd be looking at - depending on if what you want is on sale. A bit cheaper if you don't want a shifter and want to use the paddle shifters behind the wheels.
https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-G29-Driving-Shifter-Bundle/dp/B016JBE8LU $299
I chose one a little higher priced, the Thrustmaster T300RS GT edition (3 pedal setup not the cheaper 2 pedal one without the clutch) as well as the TH8A shifter. I got the wheel on sale, full price on shifter. https://i.imgur.com/Y8Gg5oO.jpg
https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-T300-RS-Racing-Wheel-PlayStation/dp/B01M1L2NRL?th=1 $388 + https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-PC-PS3-PS4-Xbox-One/dp/B005L0Z2BQ $149
These wheels are much more than toys. You can feel the wheels on the road, traction loss, how much torque the cars have, if you slam into a wall the wheels can damn near rip your hands off (you can change the % of feedback to lower it). It makes the experience in VR feel super real. I'd say a wheel carries as much importance in VR racing as the headset does.
The craziest feeling I've gotten so far as just sitting at the start of a race idling in a '66 Mustang. The entire hood of this car is shaking back and forth like Dom's muscle cars in Fast and the Furious.....and the WHEEL is shaking left and right with the car exactly how you would expect something with that much power to. That thing was like 100% torque and it felt amazing.
Even if it takes some saving, I highly recommend one of them - although I would definitely wait until Black Friday to get $100 ish off of either one you choose. The sale prices for these are quite tolerable when they occur.
A stand for the wheel is much nicer than a table for mounting, but they can be pricey as well. From $100 and up. My Apiga AP2 stand was $280 but worth every penny to not have a bar in between your legs. Only $240 now and supports most wheels. https://www.amazon.com/APIGA-Foldable-Racing-Simulator-gearshift-ALL/dp/B00XBPYUIY
From what I've seen/read, the Thrustmaster TS-PC is overpriced by $100 or so at the moment.
For c. $1000 I'd probaby get:
Thrustmaster T300RS
ProtoSimTech PT-1 Pedals
Thrustmaster TH8A Shifter
But you say you don't want a T300 (I've got one, it's amazing) so... I guess the nearest alternative would probably be the Fanatec CSL Elite, but I've got no experience with it, so someone else would have to chime in.
For me, if not going for the T300, I'd probably want to jump up to either the Fanatec CSW V2 or an AccuForce (or more likely an OSW).
Cable bracket bushings: https://www.cjponyparts.com/steeda-transmission-cable-bracket-bushing-set-focus-st-2013-2018/p/5557061/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMImZ2Xwtq93QIVguNkCh3w4gzmEAQYASABEgIU-vD_BwE
The only reason I link these are because they interlock. other companies use a glorified flat washer that's a little awkward to keep together while installing(helped a buddy install a set of em). These steeda ones are just easier.
Cable end bushings: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018UM41XG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_WLvNBbM8DVHF2
These are what I bought. Excellent machining, easy install but the Mountune ones are essentially the same thing. Pick between the two depending on who's sticker you want.
Cheap, or expensive, is relative. What budget do you have to work with? Basically, I would say in total for the rig, around $700-800 can get you something pretty decent, then you're looking for the actual console/PC and the games themselves as an additional price.
For a fairly cheap, but still best bang-for-buck rig, I would recommend:
All in all this comes down to $885 as of right now, if you want to save a little bit you could go for the original T300 GT Edition instead and it'll be $817.
The Simetik K2 is by far the best rig you can get in that pricebracket, but if you must save some more either skip the shifter for now or get a Playseat Challenge, it isn't the sturdiest but again, I do not recommend getting a rig with the pole in between your legs, I would personally rather play at a desk and an office chair than that, as it, at least for me, makes it really hard to heel-and-toe, and I love racing old DTM and GT cars with manual gearboxes and couldn't do without that.
I'd say the T150 is your best bet. I'm not sure if you're in the US or how the price would change depending on region, but the T150 Pro is on sale for $220. Comes with the T3PA pedals instead of the regular two-pedal board, it's great if you plan on using the TH8A shifter with your wheel. If not, the regular T150 and a DIY brake mod should do the job just nicely.
APDTY 134193 Automatic Transmission Shift Linkage Cable Repair Kit Fits 05-15 Nissan Armada, Frontier, Or Xterra & 04-15 Titan, 2007-2012 Pathfinder, 04-10 Infiniti QX56 & 14-17 Infiniti QX80 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074XHW4KG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_0U02Db626ZB7K
I changed on my 05. It was a 5 minute job. I have only had replacement bushing on for a few months. Seems to be holding on well.
This one from Amazon. It’s not screw on; you have to fasten it with three screws, but it fits snug. It doesn’t look right with the normal reverse lockout. It sits up a lot higher, almost like a truck shifter. The reason I cut my shifter down was to make it look alright. The reverse lockout ring is actually in the boot, it’s more difficult to get in reverse, but it’s a decent theft deterrent too lol.
Just ordered a shift stopper from unknown china company on amazon and popped that bad boy in after about 30 minutes and two small adjustments, wish I did this waaaaay earlier like when I got the car...it’s similar in design, build etc to perrin’s shift stopper but I’m a cheap bastard — it was cheap and worked great on my 2018 wrx base. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BQH23K7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_LyBvCb0VXG5ZM very easy install just take your time as some of the hardware you will remove and reattach is super tiny and if I didn’t leave a Home Depot receipt under the shifter linkage I’d have lost a nut twice lol. Good luck on choosing a short shifter kit I know kartboy and several other guys make em!
[Thrustmaster](https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-Force-Feedback-racing-wheel-WINDOWS/dp/B01CI97DNM/ref=sr_1_4?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1537753451&sr=1-4&keywords=thrustmaster+steering+wheel+pc&dpID=51bn3uOuWAL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
) on amazon is $160. It comes with pedals. But honestly after a month I upgraded to much better pedals and then bought a shifter ended up costing me over $400 by the end of it all lol. You can get away with just the wheel and default pedals though.
If you are going to play ETS2 or ATS, get an SKRS. This is the one I use, and it is amazing. Pricey, sure; But it is amazing quality, and it really adds to the experience: https://www.amazon.com/Shifter-Replacement-Logitech-Thrustmaster-EasyJakeBrake-Windows/dp/B07DVW2WYK/ref=sr_1_16?keywords=skrs&qid=1573415326&sr=8-16
> Does the wheel come with transmission stick?
I wouldn't call it a transmission stick. This is my wheel, wich is on the cheap side. It has a stick but is just like two buttons you can push with it. More expensive wheels let you connect better sticks: https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-TH8A-Add-Gearbox-Shifter-Xbox/dp/B005L0Z2BQ/
or if you have money to burn you can buy something like this
I didn't have mine that long before I changed it. So I never experienced it.
If you're interested in changing out your shift knob. These are the pages I used as reference.
https://www.accordxclub.com/threads/my-2018-honda-accord-2-0t-manual.1914/
https://www.accordxclub.com/threads/changing-the-gear-shift-knob.1012/
You'll need a new shift boot collar otherwise the boot will just sag and not made with the new knob you buy.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BM21ZN3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Also comes in black.
A 10 x 1.5 threaded knob is what you'll need. Mine does not spin (now). If it did, I could probably use some loctite on the thread to prevent it from spinning.
Just start with the Rocky Spring Shift Stop and Perrin Brass Bushing.The rocky spring is the same as perrin shift stop just cheaper.
I installed both the SS and Bushing in my 18 lmtd in under 30 minutes. It cleaned it up a lot. Install both of those for under $50 and then reevaluate before you go replacing the entire thing.
I also have the short throw shifter from factory.
You can buy lt from amazon or any good game retailer.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B005L0Z2BQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1427667065&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX200_QL40&keywords=thrustmaster+shifter&dpPl=1&dpID=31IeTgHKflL&ref=plSrch
If you want it for the xbox one make sure you get the TH8A shifter. There's another shifter which doesn't I nearly made the mistake.
You have to update the firmware on this before it works. Yep this shifter has its own firmware, So does the wheel. Easy enough to update unplug both and plug them into a pc and download updates
The 3 pedal is the best part of these wheels, and a lot of people continue to use them even after upgrading to Fanatec/TT. The Logitech shifter is sold separately now, and imo it's not worth the $60 they charge for it--save up for better quality. G25/27 wheels used to be a great value because they included 3 pedals + shifter for around $250-300 in an era when higher tier belt drive Thrustmaster wheels were around $500 just for the wheel and pedals.
A good shifter is going to cost you 100-150, so will a good set of pedals. But you should own a basic wheel like the TT TX for a few months to decide if you use it enough to warrant investing in higher end pedals/shifter. A lot of people buy these things and they just end up sitting in a closet being used a few times a year (if that).
DEWHEL Manual Performance Shifter Stop Gap Removal Shift Stop Removes Loose Sloppy Shift Gate Feel CNC Aluminum 2015+ WRX/10-14 Legacy/Outback/14+ Forester (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BQH23K7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_kD61BbH8D04ND
sorry for formatting I'm in mobile. I have this one in my 2016 wrx and it works fantastic, it's a part that saving a few bucks on is not going to injure your car.
/u/alsenan This isn't true, but the answer is unfortunately not great. The better one is made by Thrustmaster at $150:
https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-TH8A-Add-Gearbox-Shifter-Xbox/dp/B005L0Z2BQ?th=1
Orange Trim
Paddle Shifter Extensions
I don’t know if any speedometer color changes you might have to remove the whole panel and switch out the led lights for maybe a colored on or RGB lights but again, i’m not familiar with this.
Yup! You get the “teeth grinding” feeling. Buy one of these:
PERRIN Shifter Stop Compatible with Subaru WRX 2015-2017 and 2018-19 WRX with OEM Short Shifter https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019D8RK5W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ORxKDbZWJJYPF
Very easy install. It def helps but doesn’t eliminate it entirely. It really tightens up the shifting. Also, get yourself a weighted shift knob (400 grams +) and that will also help!
Edit: adding link to install vid that I used. Hope this helps!

The fake chrome was peeling off of my e-brake button so I found a cheap replacement on amazon and it is amazing how much better it looks and feels.

I got both the bushing and shift stop from Amazon due to prime and cheaper price.
Perrin Performance PSP-INR-018
Perrin Shift Stop
Perrin Performance PSP-INR-016
Perrin Shift Bushing
The Invidia R400 is louder at cold starts and its a deep sound. At idle, it sounds stock. Below 2.5k rpm is not too loud and but does get louder at higher rpms. I do love the deep bass sound. I typically try to shift below 3k rpm when leaving my Apt community in the morning. Wife says her 18 Stock Mustang 5.0 is still louder :/
Thanks for the diagram! So I found this kit on Amazon and I wasn't sure if it's the right one but it appears to be. Then I was just going to get an OEM linkage like this one. Now I found the pivot bushings here is that all the parts I need?
Amazon UK and Zavvi (reputable UK seller) both have the TH8A in stock:

I've got a similar setup and this works great

SimRig GT Omega Pro RS9
http://usa.gtomegaracing.com/racing-simulator-cockpits/pro-racing-simulator-cockpit/gt-omega-pro-racing-simulator-basic-rs9-seat-canada
Total cost: 1070$
Of course you could get even better options on the market. But IMO it is the best compromise between cost, reliability and quality.
Sure. This is the one I ordered.
The shipping might take a while, but if you can find a domestic one with the same thread size, it will work too.
You could also go for the Thrustmaster T300 with the Alcantara wheel and T3PA pedals and the TH8A shifter for less money than the bundle with a better wheel.
Not bad. I think I saw it at £200 the other week for all 3.
I’ve heard that the G920 has some reliability issues and that the TMX is probably better to go with if you get the Pro set with the T3PA pedals.
If you’re not too bothered about the shifter straight away I’d get the TMX. I have it and the wheel is great for the price bracket, just steer clear of the 2 pedal set if you have the budget to go a step further. Some links below so you can have a look;
ThrustMaster TMX PRO Steering Wheel + Pedalboard https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01M5ALXJD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_6RUpDb20TDV5F
ThrustMaster T3Pa Pro Pedal set - 4060065 (Gaming > Game Controllers) +}b https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00UVN21IU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_HSUpDbP6YVZ0D
Thrustmaster TH8A Shifter (PS4, Xbox One, PS3, PC - Windows 8, 7, Vista & XP) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005L0Z2BQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_eTUpDbTEV2EHJ
You also need a drill and a bunch of different size M6s to attach everything to the Challenge.
Oh, and I put a bunch of foam behind my pedals.
I recommend both the shift stop mentioned above + the Perrin brash shifter bushing ( https://www.amazon.com/Perrin-Subaru-Speed-Shifter-Bushing/dp/B019D8NQD2 ). There are a ton of great DIY installs for both of these products mentioned above. The stop does help with going vertical, by tightening up its gate horizontally. The stop keeps you in-line with the gate and makes the shifter have a more secure path into 1st, 2nd, 5th, & 6th. The brash bushing will relive a lot of that notchiness and slop and will help you slide into gear with more ease.
Amazon has them for $113 too...
Its been great!
I have yet to run into any issues with the wheel itself, though I feel I should warn you that if you're on carpet, the pedals don't have carpet spikes. So, you'll need to have something weighty either behind them or holding down the front. Otherwise, they will tip backwards when you hit the brake pedal.
Also, the price dropped to $150 for a couple of weeks not too long ago. It's back to $200 now, but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes on sale again in the next few months, if you're willing to wait.
As for getting a shifter, you can, but it's expensive. The only one I know of that's compatible is the TH8A.

For reference, this is my setup, pictured is the F1 wheel, but I have the Alcantara wheel as well, so feel free to ask questions.

so you'd suggest the below configuration over the Logitech one? Is there a reason I should stay away from Logitech?

I've used them Twice
I'd be willing to give 20% off if you bought everything.
Yes.. Dorman makes an upgraded part. Easy to change once the shifter is out. There's youtube videos out there on how.

Grand total: $750
It's really not that far off when you consider that Fanatec is broadly considered higher quality than Thrustmaster. I was ready to go all-in on Thrustmaster before I added it all up and realized I might as well keep saving and get the Fanatec stuff.

Forgive my ignorance, what does the weighted shift knob do?

Realistically however you can get away with just the wheel on its own clamped to as desk or something if budget is an issue. the pedals it comes with are ok but I had some foam down the back of the brake to add a little resistance

This will help. Gets rid of the dumb rubber one
https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-SEQUENTIAL-SHIFTER-HANDBRAKE-SPARCO-pc/dp/B077NG4SR7?th=1 this might work just plugged into the xbox USB port.
If you are on PC you have a number of choices for shifters. Since all of the shifters will use USB it is seen as a separate device and you just map it.
The shifter you asked about is probably the lowest priced option but you do have more options. Here are a few to think about.
The Thrustmaster TH8A can be changed from gated to sequential in about 2 minutes.
Fanatec also has 2 shifters. A sequential and a gated/sequential version.

https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-TH8A-Add-Gearbox-Shifter-Xbox/dp/B005L0Z2BQ
I believe this is the only one that's compatable with modern Thrustmasters, They're extremely popular so the prices probably won't be much lower than $100 any time soon
Yeah, it just plugs in via USB. This one is pricey, but supposedly very nice: https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-PC-PS3-PS4-Xbox-One/dp/B005L0Z2BQ/

Someone recommended this cheap one off amazon. Ordered it. Worked just fine.

I just checked Amazon UK, where I'm lurking (probably not helpful if you're across the sea), and they have them in stock. However, I couldn't believe the price. They're about 75% more expensive than when I bought mine.

Fanatec do some nice ones, expensive though. Thrustmaster also do them.
