      I would say do it! On an older car I'm sure the center carrier bearing is worn. Would be a nice upgrade for your STi!

      ​@@JoeyMontalto I switched to the DM-2 on my WRX transmission, and it was amazing. After trying the stock STI shifter and finding it too vague, I went straight to the DM-1 v2. It's excellent-very accurate, stiff, and reassuring. It takes a bit to get used to, and while I currently have the self-centering mechanism installed, I’m considering trying it without. It enhances the driving experience but adds some extra shifting effort that I haven't fully adjusted to even after driving for a while.

    It took me 20 minutes to install this driveshaft on my 2019 STI on jack stands in my garage. I've been running this driveshaft for over a year. You will experience some weirdness at low rpm's when you decelerate as the driveshaft doesn't have the same rotational mass as the flywheel.

    Hey Joey, can you confirm the carbon shaft is the same length as stock STI shaft? I have a similar setup to you, 2023 WRX with a 2018 STI trans installed. The driveshaft is noticeably too short, by about 2 inches. Is the carbon shaft slightly longer? Thanks

      Hey buddy by chance were you able to resolve your issue? I have a 23 wrx as well and I'm hearing multiple anwers on whether va driveshaft works or not. I'd make a custom piece but I'm not able to find the correct measurment.

      @@alexthesaxman6219yes happy to answer, cause NO one would help me. I guess that's what happens when so few installs have been done haha. So, in my case, I went ahead and got the DSS carbon shaft for the VA STI. It fits but I think it's still slightly too short for the VB. The thing to keep in mind is whether you're also using aftermarket trans/motor mounts too. I'm using solid mounts everywhere, so it may be holding the trans a bit higher, and not allowing the driveshaft to fully seat into the output shaft of the transmission. I've got maybe 5-10mm where the driveshaft isn't seated fully into the output shaft, I'm going to use a spacer soon to make it fit properly. But technically speaking, it does fit and I've been driving it like this for a couple months.

      @@alexthesaxman6219 definitely, glad to help. Good luck and have fun with the install! Also another thing that absolutely no one talks about (on VA or VB STI swaps) is the midpipe exhaust hanger. The trans can't be used with FA exhausts since the downpipe is on the opposite side for an EJ. I had to make my own to prevent the exhaust from drooping dramatically.
