I guess I am ignorant. It's been since 2002 that I drove a WRX five-speed. I have only known/owned STi's six-speed, where you lift a ring under the shift knob to access reverse. That lifting of the ring pulls on a cable which rotates a lockout lever on the side of the trannny. Is reverse gated in the five-speed, where you have to go to neutral before you can access reverse?
