thank you sir for the info, so how do you like the non hydralic 5mt.
do you think i should stick a hydralic one in the car, its going to be just a nice non mod svx stock power. |

For day to day driving the cable clutch set-up is fine, if you plan on doing drag launches, you'll want a better pressureplate and clutch to keep it from slippinng.....but it won't slip under normal conditions and driving.

mt holding up?
I have not been able to find any information in reguards to weather anyone has had a mt5/mt6 swap last and hold up. I have found reports and speculations that the eg33 had too much torque for a mt wich is supposedly why Subaru never made it an available option. Dose anyone have any info on that note?

To the best of my knowledge, the SVX I did the first swap on is still doing fine....so it's been in the car for over 5 years, but was never beat on while I had it.
Of rnormal driving they'll be fine, but if you're going to be drag racing it, NO tranny will hold up for too long, Manual OR Auto....that's the price you pay to play...
