so, people say on the internet that the input shaft on the WRX is a 2 piece design.
and that the after market ones are stronger because they are a single piece design.
the stock one is a single piece in year 2002 sold in the USA.
it is one single piece from the clutch all the way through and including 1st and second gear.

1st gear is broken, so, I have to replace the whole part.
I will just get a new gearset.
if I can get someone to sell me the parts,
