If anyone is in need of a stout Subaru 5 speed transaxle for their 818, I am selling mine as I am in the process of upgrading to a 6 speed.
The transaxle is from my 2006 WRX donor. The 06 is known to be one of the strongest 5 speeds Subaru put in the WRX's. It also is the only year they came with a 3.70:1 final drive ratio, very desirable! I rebuilt the transmission before putting it in my 818R and it now has only 1,562 miles on it. Below is a list of what has been done to the transmission and what is included in the sale.
Price: $2,500 including shipping to anywhere in the continental US
I have included links to my build thread when additional information is available for each item.
Rebuilt with all new seals, bearings, syncros and gaskets
