any1 have experience swapping out trannys?
i just ordered a MY06 JDM 5-speed wrx tranny and rear diff. from gruppe-s for my 03 wrx. i have already spend a ton on the tranny and i also have to buy new axles, and getting it installed at a shop will cost even more $$$. so i was wondering if any of you guys have any experience with swapping out trannys before??? how hard of a task would swapping out the tranny, rear diff., and axles be?

That should be the same tranny that's in the forester XT's
that will be a great setup!
the only difference between your rear end and that rear end is the final gear ratio is different.

Tranny swap is Cake!! but make sure you buy the special tool that keeps the tranny from pitching.
