Recent talk on nasioc

Got me to thinking, why people are selling used sti transmissions for so much money (5K+!) when you can get a brand new 07 sti trans for the MNsubaru price of $3904.00, PM me with any questions.

 

glad i could help

 

WORD forgot to mention, josh pointed it out to me.

 

wonder where the guy got the quote for $3500, thats a killer deal

 

Are you talking a full swap for a WRX or just the transmission?

 

This is the link

Full transmission, gear set, diff

 

Full trans, all you would need would be axle stubs, automatic trans driveshaft and a 3.90 rear diff

 

broken nasioc link btw

 

Sti transmissions suck

 

updated the link

 

Link not workin.

 

:biggthumpup:

 

holy crap.

Let me go sell a kidney real quick.

 

quoted off the thread

Okay guys.


ANYONE that wants the same 2007 STi transmission that I got can get it for....

****drumroll*****
$3750

PM thekingofparts and talk with Tristan.

Keep in mind that this is for the Transmission only. All that comes with it is the gearbox, a new clutch cylinder, throw-out bearing, shift fork, DCCD and wiring on the trans side only.

If you have any question as to what is needed for a 2002-2005 WRX pm me and I can get part numbers for you. 2006-2007 owners will need a little more. I'll post up a new thread with all the info when I get a chance.

 

i dont know right now if we can match THAT price, but i will talk to the manager

 

Wow, just wow! good prices

 

so now the question is, why is the '07 sti transmission cheaper then previouse years? i think like $1200 cheaper. What did they skimp on? or what did they change? or did they just get a hellova deal on the manuf process?

 

Those are some good prices for sure.

 

Now what do you think about doing an STi tranny?

 

i dont really know, but i do know the 07 has better gear ratios

 

i just hope they didnt skimp on anything

 

nice find josh! might be doing this when the wrx tranny goes

 

yes, this def closes the gap on the PPG vs STi gear set

 

would the sti trans swap be a good gear ration match for a wrx with the 2.0l?

 

yes, it would be awesomeness billiam

 

thats what I was thinking?? so how much to do the whole swap??

 

yeah AspitFire what else did you have to pick up? Bill i would be game to help out

 

sweet thanks, let me know when you get all the parts. lol

 

psh, if i had the parts i wouldnt NOT have an auto in the wagon

 

I dont know the for sure answer, but this was taken from that same thread on nasioc

-transmission
-driveshaft
-6 speed shifter and assembly****
-6-speed clutch fork and slave cylinder for 2007 sti
R160 rear diff (02-05 wrx)......(i thought you needed a r180 rear diff with axles?)
6 speed clutch and flywheel
Circlips from 2004 sti
DCCD wiring
slave cylinder
DCCD box, or spider unit, or simialar programmer
"the only way to get FULL functioning dccd is to swap in the dccd computer and abs unit from an sti along with the rest of the sensors."



again this was all taken from that thread with the same people asking the same question.

 

so now the question...wray/chux, can you wire in dccd?

 

wray's done it.....I've got diagrams, for whatever that's worth


but, as you'll notice in the above list, doing it with the stock controller isn't an easy project. talk to piddster about aftermarket controllers, he's researched them, and has one in his car.

 

do you have to have the dccd? and a newb quesiton here, what does it do and at what time would you use it?

 

what if no dccd but you want to control when the center diff opens?...wonder if thats easy.

 

If no dccd is ran, the diffs will run open

 

Unless subaru changed it, you can use any turbo slave on the 6mt. I have a WRX unit with a Legacy SS master.

Axle stubs - 38415AA110
circlips 805329010

These are what I used to put the 6mt in my car. If your axels have the stubs machined as part of them, you just need the seals, AFAIK.

You don't need an R180, just a rear diff with a 3.90 ratio. I'm using one out of a '92 Legacy Automatic untill I put this 3.90 VLSD back together from, I think, a '99 Impreza.

Center diff isn't nessecarily "open" but with the torque bias, it will feel as if it is. I'm using Spiider's auto controller, and its well worth it. Mush simpler to install, and it very effective. It has a high resolution 2 axis G sensor and a TPS input. It uses several modes of logic as opposed to lookup tables like other aftermarket units. The auto unit also has a thumbwheel to set the "agressiveness" of the controller. People have even used it in rally and have been happy with it.

 

Yeah, I'm retarded for buying this garbage:roll:

If all you're worried about is frumrolls, don't get it. For everything else, its worth it.

 

God Piddy, your so stupid. You bought one of the greatest transmissions of all time. Whatever made you do something so dumb???

LOL

 

Fixed that for ya


I guess I'm an impulsive buyer :dunno:

 

the catalog says the sti rearend is a 3.54 ratio for all years, whats up with that?

 

the front axle ratio is 3.545, but after the 1.1:1 transfer gear, the rear axle ratio is 3.90

 

ughh I wish I had the cash. I need a trans bad.

Rebuild 1.8 trans? (only to have it blow again?)
6 speed?
Wrx?


I can has Money Tree?

 

when i go into rear end it says that.....i'll take a screenshot monday

 

Hmmm, wierd. I thought it was common knowledge that the rear was a 3.9.


Mine hasn't gone *munch* yet so it must be correct.

 

i totally agree, you are living proof, but i doubt it would be wrong.....
