Heard of people replacing their SVX transmissions with Legacy 95-98 transmissions together with the appropriate rear differential. Does this work - any cons?
Thank you,

Quick answer is YES!
I just completed a 4.11 swap using a '96 Impreza Outback Sport trans and a '91 Legacy 4.11 rear diff. Read this thread in its entirety for info:
4.11 Swap Cpmpleted
Also, do a search for the 4.11 swap that SVX-FF did using an Impreza trans and diff, as well as the 4.44 swap that Svxfiles did using a '96 Legacy Outback trans and diff.
All of us have 4EAT SVXs, but with shorter gearing. The linked thread will also include my gas mileage reports where I'm averaging about 20-21mpg in 50/50 city & highway, and 25mpg in 90%+ highway driving...
Good luck!
