qikslvr Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Here's one out of a 06 LGT turbo on Ebay with 10K miles on it. They want $2500 and it's located in Denver,CO: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=013&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=230251734299&rd=1 I'm looking for a spare to build too, but don't want to pay that much for a hot spare that I'm going to rip apart and re-build anyway.

Kaos22B Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 $2,500! my god they must think those transmissions have Gold synchros and Unobtanium gears... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qikslvr Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 That's kinda what I though too. It may have only 10-12K miles on it, but you can fubar a transmission in less than that. I basically just need the case to start a new build with. Let's kick this pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I basically just need the case to start a new build with. You'll find one much cheaper I'm sure. If I remember correctly I sold my JDM geared 5 speed out of my RS for about 1k? That was with a clutch too, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiralsmurf Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 why not get an impreza case and build it with lgt gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atcvader Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 someone told me that we have the push style and impreza are pull, so it wouldn't work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qikslvr Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 No dice here either. I'm looking for gears too. Does anybody know if we use the same physical gears and shafts as the WRX 5MT? I'm looking at the Ralliscec gears for my eminent tranny re-build: RST-1141R Type STi Gear Set for 5MT '99-'07 $1600 (Ratios -- 3.166 / 1.882 / 1.296 / 0.972 / 0.738) http://www.rallispec.com/prod_trans.htm I'm looking at the STI set since it has the same gear ratio's as our stockers. I just need something a little stronger than the stock gear in 1st and 2nd, but don't want to spend $4K to get them. Let's kick this pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Non-RAs (I believe the ones you have listed above) ARE basically what we have in our transmissions. Yes they will interchange between transmission cases fine, but if you want a stronger set I'd recommend possibly looking at PPGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaos22B Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 someone told me that we have the push style and impreza are pull, so it wouldn't work Depends what year, Non turbos etc all had push type, like ours. WRXs from 06+ have push type, like ours. Only 02-05 WRX, 04+ STi, and 6speed legacy's have pull type.

qikslvr Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I'm trying to find just a 1st-2nd combo of the PPG's, but haven't been able to track them down yet. They want about $3800 for a 1st-4th set and I'm really only interested in 1st-2nd. I'd like to keep parts to under $2K if possible. First gear is a little chewed in my current tranny, but everything else is fine. I'm just looking to do a somewhat low cost re-build on this one and then do a full dog box when I find a used tranny to start from later. Let's kick this pig!

If your car is driving right now, baby it until you get the transmission set you want. A warning though, I've driven a couple different sets of dogboxes, the fun factor is great, but they get annoying after a while. I forgot the name of the place that does PPG installs for all the nasioc guys but I've heard they are good and I'm sure they can get you the 1-2 set.

qikslvr Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I think it's AndrewTech that sells and installs PPG's. I'm just looking to go one more round on the stockish transmission for the street and then when I build the dogbox; it'll become a trailer queen and be a dedicated track vehicle so noise at that point doesn't really matter.

atcvader Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 I don't know much about tranny's but the mechanic just told me I might only need the transmission casing... Is that a good sign? Is it still just as expensive as a new tranny??? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaos22B Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 From what you said in the other thread only the casing was damaged around the release bearing "snout". Isn't that correct? If so yah, you just need the case, but I forgot how expensive they are new. I really doubt your gears are messed up because of a bad TOB, the input shaft however.... I don't know.
