Curiosity got me to pondering the above questions....
Suppose non-Subaru motor for the Subaru transmission and non-Boxster/Audi engine for the Boxster transmission. What about axles and hooking up to the drive hubs? One easier or vastly less expensive than the other? EDIT 2/21/2016: Now with pictures comparing Boxster transmission to 901 transmission |

After some research and pondering about this and that, I decided that for me, the ideal transmission between the Subaru and Boxster would be from a Passat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)
From what I've read and heard, the Passat 5 speed transmission is nearly identical and is a near direct swap with the Boxster transmission (5 speed, not the 6 speed version) $200 for this puppy, not too bad. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-87-1444711654.jpg) |
