Any of the Subaru 5-speeds and 6-speeds will fit. Its deciding which one to get that takes more contemplation. If you plan on really abusing the car, you'll need a 6MT or a WRX 5MT with STi RA gears. If you're not too hard on the car, then you can get away with a stock WRX 5MT. The later ones ('04+) are a bit stronger than the early ones. Non WRX 5MTs (with the exception of the '05+ Legacy GT and the Forester XT) are the weakest and are only suitable for daily mostly non-aggressive driving.
You'll also want to consider which gear ratios will best suit your driving style. IMHO, the WRX 5MT has ideal gearing for the SVX motor. The USDM 6MTs also have good gearing for the SVX motor.
