    That SG9 STI trans is almost the same as an STI, apart from the ratios. Your box will have super long range gear set with .707 to 1 in 6 gear.

      I was wondering how it was going to be. Curious to feel the ratios. Hopefully soon!

    Hey man. My buddy just bought an 04 wrx hatchback and in it is a 5 speed micro polished cryo treated transmission. Do you know anything about this transmission? We were told that even if the car is totaled, that we need to save the trans. But we don't know what makes it so valuable. Do you have any information on this transmission? Many thanks

      Well if it’s truly micro polished it’s worth prob 5-6k for the tranny alone

    Nice video bro. Just bought a v7 wrx but I’m thinking of doing a sti engine swap in the future can I do a straight engine swap or do I need the 6 speed gearbox ?

    • @_ivan__the__great_
      @_ivan__the__great_  Рік тому +1

      Thank you! The engine is more extensive of a process. You have to change the dash and engine harness. For the transmission swap, I believe iWire makes an adapter harness

    where i bought it from for your trans six gears

    Will any STi trans including 2019+ work with 2003 wrx. Assume you need a shorter drive shaft

    • @_ivan__the__great_
      @_ivan__the__great_  Рік тому

      The transmission casing is roughly the same for all STI 6 speed transmissions, what changes throughout the years is the internals (Mostly gear ratios) and the wiring. I'm not too sure what years work for you outside of 02-07, but I would suggest staying in that year range. Its best to buy an entire swap with the differential, wheel hubs and brakes included. 2019+ STI transmissions are also, by far the most expensive. I'm also not entirely sure if the axles from an older STI ] will work with a newer transmission.

    I hear an auto impreza driftshaft will work for a 6spd swap.FlatIrons tuning mentioned this

    • @_ivan__the__great_
      @_ivan__the__great_  2 роки тому

      Hm I’m not sure, I believe the dash harness may have to change for a manual swap

    I have the same sti wheels on my legacy. These oem sti wheels can take a beating I tell you.

    • @_ivan__the__great_
      @_ivan__the__great_  2 роки тому

      Haha they honestly feel like they could, eventually they’ll be my winter wheels when I take trips up north. Excited to find out!

    I have a bugeye wrx can I just do a straight swap change the 5speed into a sti 6speed with the engine it has or so I need the sti engine?

    • @_ivan__the__great_
      @_ivan__the__great_  2 роки тому

      Yes you can! The engines are roughly the same externally. The 2.5 gets the extra displacement from space made inside!

    • @edwingonzalez334
