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.

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.
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?
I got both the bushing and shift stop from Amazon due to prime and cheaper price.

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 :/
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.
