I think mine will be dead soon too
Throwout bearing is almost gone, clutch is going, the tranny just does not feel happy...

, but ya as long as you don't beat the crap out of a regular wrx tranny(i.e. side step clutch drops/slamming it through gears) it should last you.

Just the organic street upgrade with a 12 pound flywheel. And it was an RS tranny, which actually is MORE stressed in 1st and 2nd gear. Same torque, lower gearing.
