The only thing I know about suby transmissions is that I want one for my eg33 conversion. What model should I buy? What should I expect to pay, Where should I look? Blah, blah, blah.

Thanks in advance!

I am going with the late model cable shift 6 speed. 2010 gt and up as well as a few spec B . In 12 all the 6 speed are cable shift. Much improved tranny redesigned with wider gears and able to handle the 300 tork of the Diesel engines.
Search auto-parts dot com. They run 1500-2000.

The sti trannys are bigger. Long,tall, and all the rage for the wrx guys that keep braking the 5 speeds trying to do a 4wheel burn out. So 3-4k and I'm not sure it will fit?
If your looking at the 5 speeds on the cheap almost any of the hyd clutch ones will work. Remember the 914 drops almost 1000 lbs off a wrx and with the tranny only 2wd I think the tires are going to go before the tranny.

The 5 speeds are unbalivably simple to rebuild. The bearing press it the only pain in the ass.

You want to match the clutch with the flywheel. Wrx is the same as the 911 and needs the pull style arm and slave cylinder.

Good luck. Jcl
