bored so I thought I'd dredge up this old thread and close it out.
my resolution was to buy an Imprezza tranny, Legacy diff and do the swap to 4.11s.
when I pulled the pan on the SVX tranny it had the most beautiful array of metallic particles attached to the pan magnet - really it was quite lovely, wish I would have taken a pic.
I still have no idea what caused a slip in 4th gear only, 1st, 2nd and 3rd were flawless - even under full throttle. I guess it could have been the band, but since it never slipped back into third that seems less than likely....maybe I'll never know, my wife is pretty much against me keeping a whole, yet bad, transaxle laying about.
thinking of sending the box to Dayle if I can figure out a way to ship it (no business address makes it tough). If someone wants to stop by & pick it up, it's a freebie - I might even throw in the SVX diff housing with SVX ring & pinion (although with Legacy carrier).
