All I can speak to with authority is what I have - a 98 Imprezza auto transaxle and a 97 Legacy rear differential (from a manual shift Legacy). The rear diff ratio must match whatever transaxle ratio is picked. 4.44 is also an option depending on price & local availability. A grinder (for the rear diff) a good assortment of hand tools, a couple of jackstands and a day or two and the swap can be done in a home garage - at least that's where I did mine.
Doh! I forgot to mention Lee in the members with upgraded gears...

What I'll add is this:

You have three different gearings at your disposal to choose from -

3.90 gears from turbo Legacys with a 4EAT

4.11 gears from NA Legacy sedans and wagons, and Impreza sedans as well as the Impreza Outback Sport Wagon.

4.44 gears from the Legacy Outback wagon

The Impreza rear diffs are very small and aren't large enough to swap in the limited slip from your SVX rear diff. Therefore, if you get a 4.11 Impreza trans, you'll need a 4.11 rear diff from a Legacy sedan or wagon.
