my car had been converted to a 02 wrx 5speed, that i blew up, will thiss one bolt right in, or be easily modified

The trans should go in fine, but you'll need to match the rear diff.

What Dave said....

do you think if i match the rear diff it will be a better gear ratio? does anybody kno the gear ratio? it isnt possible that it matches already is it? as u probly gessed i didnt do the 5mt swap, i bought it that way

The WRX uses a 3.545 rear, the same as the SVX.

The RS is not a 3.545, it's probably a 4.11?? You'll need to get a 4.11 (or whatever matches) rear out of a Legacy and swap your LSD into it. The info to swap the diff is either in the "how To's" or in a post somewhere?

when lookin at gear ratio specs is it the first gear ratio or the final ratio?

The final ratio....

ok i found out the 02 wrx was a 3.90 ratio and the rs was like huck said, 4.11, so would it be worth it to convert the car to a 411 ratio, is it benifial?

Little more get up n go...Highway rpms may be a little higher, but it won't be annoying...Actually, it puts rpms closer to here the car loves to make power, so it can get you in trouble if you have a lead foot

will the rs differential bolt up right were my old one was or do i need to take them apart and swap the gears?

You have to swap gears....:o

the seat gives me a hug easily from a stand still with 4.11

...like it loves it and asks for more. :eek:

not a bad price, I should grab it as a spare

...but I would recommend to you, just get a wrx trans. save yourself the work of messin with the rear.

how about a 98 legacy trans? will it hold the power and bolt up right? and do you kno the gear ratio?

The only car that you can retain the stock SVX rear diff is a 2002-2005 WRX
Which have 3.90's in them, but a reduction of 1.1:1 to the rear so they run a 3.54 rear diff like the SVX....

the 98 Legacy manual will bolt up, and will either be a 3.90 or a 4.1 and will require swaping the rear diff gears.....get the numbers off the housing by the starter and look it up.
