There is a member in Texas who has bought a 5EAT tiptronic tranny and rear diff from a late model Legacy, and is planning to fit this to his SVX. It's a pretty major install, but it should be possible.

If you find out it actually is Tiptronic, Timbo, see if you can find contact details for the guy who did the conversion.

I've had that exact same conversation a while back with Harv.

I'm still thinking it over. Once I do a manual in one, I'll look to seriously do that shortly. (At the moment I'm too busy to think about anything more complicated than tying my shoes in the morning, so if you see me with lace-up shoes it means I put in a lot of effort to dress up for you.)

All in all, while it isn't an enormous undertaking, it is a lot of custom work that will need to be tested-re-tested and constantly evaluated. And that means money and time, something a lot of us are short on.
