But the best idea i heard yet was a guy talking about getting the 5MT cast and redoing it. Pretty much the inside portion would be the same to house all that is inside, but the outside would be beffer. I was reading about it somewhere but i can't remember. I thinks its a great idea but they where saying that a cast alone and then trying to reproduce another is really expensive. Hopefully someone w/ alot of money, and someone who really loves subaru's develops a cost effective fix.

well i dont think it would be that expensive if you cut the bellhousing casting off the old cast and bolted it to a custom made box with gear that would cost about 1500-2000 for that work
but then you add a gear set and two LSD for a grand total of about what a 6speed costs
but a group buy would help
