Check each part against your chassis code, engine and gearbox before you order. Cam gears and cam tools depend on whether the engine has AVCS: the HD cam gears suit non-AVCS gears only, the AVCS intake tool suits single and dual AVCS EJ engines, and the dual AVCS exhaust tool suits the WRX STI from 2008 to 2021 (GR, GV, VA).

The short shifter is for manual cars only. It cuts throw by 32% and lowers the lever by about 32 mm. The intake manifold suits drive-by-wire EJ20 and EJ25 engines and keeps the throttle body in the factory position.

The braided fuel line kit plumbs a -6 Aeromotive regulator in parallel and suits builds up to about 600 whp with a suitable pump. For exhaust mounts, measure your hanger: the 5 pack is for 12mm hangers and the universal mount is for 15mm hangers.

Installation by a professional is recommended.

Cam gear and tensioner jobs mean removing the timing belt and setting cam timing, which is where the cam sprocket and crank pulley tools help. The coolant tank mounts in the factory location and reuses the factory cap, though some hose trimming may be needed. Plan for consumables such as coolant, gaskets and new hardware where the factory bolts are single use.

Chicane supplies parts only and ships Australia wide, so arrange fitting and labour with your workshop before ordering.

Where can I buy Torque Solution parts in Australia?
Chicane Australia sells Torque Solution shifter, timing, cooling and intake parts and Subaru workshop tools, and ships Australia-wide from the NSW Central Coast. Search by Torque Solution part number, or contact our team with your chassis code and engine if you're unsure a part fits.

Which cam sprocket tool do I need?
The standard tool suits non-AVCS cam gears and is interchangeable with Subaru tools 499207400 and 499207400-A. The AVCS intake tool and the dual AVCS exhaust tool replace Subaru tool 499977500, and the SOHC tool replaces 499207100 for SOHC EJ engines.

Why replace the factory cam gears?
The factory non-AVCS cam gears are plastic composite and can turn brittle with age and fail, which can cause major engine damage. The Torque Solution HD gears are machined from 7075-T6 billet aluminium, and Torque Solution rates them as a must for built engines with stiffer valve springs.

Does the Torque Solution short shifter suit an automatic?
No. It suits manual WRX (GE/GH), Forester XT (SG/SH) and Liberty GT (BL/BP) models only, and comes with urethane front and rear shifter linkage bushings.

Which exhaust mount do I need?
The 12mm 5 pack suits the WRX (GE/GH), WRX STI (GR/GV), Liberty GT (BL/BP) and Forester XT (SH). The 15mm universal mount suits cars with 15mm hangers, and the BRZ (ZC6) has its own kit.
