more tranny questions
Im on my search for my transmission and I need to know if I can use a trans from a Subaru Legacy Lsi or 2.5GT models? Im familar with the Outback and Impreza conversions on the site but are there really any differences between all of them? I got one week before my bonus gets here and I want to get the show on the road for summer. Thanks Damian

Subarus with 4.44 gears (Forester and Legacy Outback) will have the larger 5 bolt rear diff you need to switch the limited slip hub over. Some Subarus with 4.11 gears (e.g. Impreza sedan and Impreza Outback Sport) will have a rear diff that's much smaller than the SVX's and won't accomodate the limited slip. However, the rear diff from any 4.11 Legacy sedan will work (5 bolt). -Chike

The following website is the best resource to search junkyard parts:
www.car-part.com/ It's best to just call each place and see if the part is in stock. Don't even worry about haggling over price on the phone. When you go there in person to pick up the trans, walk with cash. They won't care if you plan on putting the trans in a tricycle... -Chike
