West Virginia 4.44 trans & diff swap meet! Saturday, April 23rd!
Ok, I spoke with Tom (Svxfiles) tonight who's still recovering from the exciting time he had at Reading over the weekend... :p j/k bud
It looks like we'll be doing the trans and rear diff swap (from a '97 Legacy Outback) on my SVX at his place on Saturday April 23rd. We'll start shortly after Tom gets off work at 2pm and work at least until sunset (~8pm), before finishing up Sunday am. There'll be beer, laughter and of course a trans swap in progress. Feel free to let us know if you might be in the area and want to pop in for a beer or two...or three or four...heck just take the whole case and go home! :p :D -Chike |
Or take that tranny and go home ;) ;) ;)

<<Thanks! You know on car-part.com I saw an '04 Forester XT 5spd on sale at a junk yard in NJ for $1000. That isn't a bad price for the strongest 5spd Subaru brings to the US... >>
why do you think this? |
What all would be involved in using the Forester XT 5spd?
Does it basicaly just bolt up, or is there a need for a lot of fabrication?? |
Hey Chike, the 23rd is my birthday so when you are duing the tranny swap take a moment and tie a few, i.e.3 or more, beer for me. :D
Good luck with the swap to 4.44 Steve There in spirt. |

4.11 are short enough for the 5mt. 4.44 would be alittle out of hand with the shifting and gas mileage. plus there would not be enough of a gain in performance to balance it out. Just doesn't have the logic behind it. although I would prob be the 1st 4.44 5mt owner :rolleyes:

If you have to get another cable 5spd, get one from a '97-'99 Legacy Outback. To the best of my knowledge the gear ratio is 4.11, but the trans is supposed to be stronger than the one in an Impreza. -Chike |
awe, what a pitty - I'm be right around the corner the following weekend.
