Also.. Do you think a tranny swapped in from a 2.2l engine will be able to stand up to an eg33 ? seems like the svx engine will eat that transmission for breakfast...

I've run a 1.8 Impreza Tranny in a coupe different SVXs, with no problems (my RWD 5-Speed is out of a 1.8 Impreza) Subaru has been using the same basic transmission since the late 80's, so unless you get a WRX one, or an STi one they are all about the same, 1.8, 2.2, or 2.5.

Again, as for holding up, that completely depends on how you drive, if you flog it on a daily basis, yeah, it'll probably break (but so does the auto) and a STi one will break under those conditions too...might take a little longer, but drag launches will end up destroying ANY transmission over time.
But if you drive it in a sane manner (at least Most of the time) they hold up fine.....
