Abdi Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Ok some background information on the car it is a 2006 Legacy gt 5eat the car is stock except for a cobb ots 93 octane tune. The transmission has started to go (im assuming) because of the flashing sport light and also it is slam shifting and slipping. That being said, ive been looking for a tranny that could hold some power and came across a used IPT built tranny on here but it is for a 2008 not a 2006. My question would be could I make it work ? and how ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utc_pyro Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 The pinouts and TCU are completely different. IF you want to do a lot of wiring it should in theory at least drive. It might be slightly angry about the shift coordination signals for the ECU missing on CANBUS. You could fix that by also swapping the ECU, but then you'd have to figure out a wiring conversion for that as well and deal with the immobilizer. So now you're swapping the gauge cluster and BIU, along with other wiring. TL;DR: In theory yes. In practice it'd be cheaper to buy an 08-09 legacy, swap the tranny, and move on.

Abdi Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 Thanks utc_pyro for the information. I think my best bet then would be to sell and maybe buy a wrx or maybe even a 04 to 07 sti Idk which one ive gotta do some research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
