buy an 05 legacy tranny..

 

Not sure if anyone wants them treated or not, just wanted to point out the differences of what is currently being sold by vendors as RA Gearsets and what is on the FXT.

is the non RA gear set just as strong as the RA ones? because im thinking about getting the non ra ones because i dont like the fact 5gear ratio is so low (4000rpm 85mph)...

 

I sort of agree with you - I think I'd like RA 1-4 and stock 5th....sigh.

 

That we can do!

We have that on our shop show car.

Actually - I want to check out the set up next time I'm in...going over the RPM plot with a 3.9 final drive on the RA it looks like 80 is @ 3500 which is liveable.

With the stock WRX though, 80 is @ 3125 - and it makes it a really long reach between 4th and 5th.

I can probably live with the RA set, it's not so bad...with the 4.44 final drive though, that's a different matter RA 80 mph=4000 rpm - which is very high since it's well past my boost peak. On the stock 5th is 3500 rpm for 80 mph

 

Just buy a JDM 6-speed already....

 

only ballers named devin can afford the jdm 6spd.

 

how about my Ver. 6 Type RA setup w/4.44 final. Heres a pic of my cluster at 67mph...3550RPM. Yeah convert the KMH to MPH. Its short gearing but these boxes and rear diffs are available for around $3000 and it gives you a good reason to upgrade to an R180 and brembos...I love it.

 

yea i run the RA1-4 stock 5th cant complain only thing is shifting from 4th to 5th its like shifting into overdrive its mafr for cruising at the point

 

ohh yea mine are treated toooo

 

Dev aint a baller, you are the baller.

I heard you drive a BMW as your DAILY driver.

I also heard your parents have 2 mercedes.

I also heard your brother has a pretty new G35 coupe.

I also heard that there is a GATE to get into your driveway.

Who's the baller now?

 

dayyymmmnnnnn

 

i heard hes got a gate around his house????

 

w3rd, you can't get into the driveway, or ever FRONT DOOR without passing security..
