161 - 180 of 540 Posts
nice - good to have a used transmission source you can trust!
looks good. weighs less than it looks.
planning any autox or similar events coming up? need some shakedown runs for the 240...
Negative. Broke the second RS transmission a few weekends ago at a test and tune. I'm not even going to bother putting another one in.. just going to find a JDM 6 speed.
I think the lightweight flywheel is causing the issue. The transmission breaks doing shifts near redline in higher gears... worked completely fine driving it on the street.
suck. enjoyment will be much improved with all the fun STi diffs though ...THATS what makes a subaru, a subaru (IMO)
I'm probably just going to find a non-DCCD trans. I don't even want to bother with all of that since this is a track car.
In the meantime I'm still waiting for my 2015 WRX to come in. I'll just autocross it in the meantime, haha.
track car is exactly why/when you want DCCD... also i thought all 6 speeds had it anyway
Can't wait to put those in. Are you on coils or struts and springs
