Dr_Tiwa Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 This feels like a pretty stupid topic and has probably been answered a few times but does the JDM STi transmission bolt up to the LGT's. It's weird but no threads seem to answer this directly. If I buy and full TY856WB6KA swap will it be fine? Obviously I'll need a DCCD controller and a custom driveshaft. Or is there anyway to find the same thing in USDM for around the same price. Let me know what you guys think and whether or not it would be better to go a different route.

Th3Franz Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 The case is the same as USDM. JDM STI has shorter gearing in 5th and 6th gear. Not recommended for a street car. Friend of mine has a JDM 6-speed in his WRX.. cruising on the highway at 70 around 3500 RPM IIRC -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAMMER DOWN Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 To compare, the USDM 05 STi 6MT is 3000 RPM in 6th @ 75mph. Mileage:331487 Retired/Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Tiwa Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Thanks for the replies guys. I'm pretty new to cars so even with research I don't really understand what I'm looking at just yet. Do you guys know any places to find an 07 STi trans swap? I went to y2kimports and they didnt have any swaps available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
