Re: STI 6 speed swap!!!

Basically you keep the stock rear diff and don't worry about axles.

Make sure you get all clutch/flywheel related items along with the starter

And with the WRX tranny, you'll have to get a different driveshaft.

Re: STI 6 speed swap!!!

you *should* get the stock SVX driveshaft lengthened... You ca use a 95-99 legacy 5mt driveshaft, but its about a 1/2" too long and you will need to trim the dust cup and the center bearing isn't a "perfect" fir but it can be made to work.
