Why would anyone want to downgrade his/her RS tranny to a WRX tranny?
RS tranny = 4.11 gears (sweet for low end and amazing at the Auto-X, Rally-X and canyon running, great for everyday driving)
WRX tranny = 3.91 (which is better for higher speeds, long legs)

WRX trannies are not as strong as the RS tranny, 1st and 2nd gears synchro's are always going out on people, infact I've heard of more WRX trannies going out than RS trannies, RS trannies are able to handle more torque down low.

aeipee13:

I will have an RS tranny for sale soon, I'm in the process of putting an 5 speed STi tranny on my Ver6 RS (converted to a Ver6) the tranny has 75000 miles, I can include a Stage III excedy clutch with 20000 miles, along with the RS LSD, PM me for the details, if you are interested.

Laters

you are correct!! the main reason why is because the GC was a very limited production car, not only that Subaru was testing the waters (sort of speak) before bringing their rocket of a car the WRX, which had been available overseas since '93. Oh and BTW no one is arguing the point that the EJ20 has more HP of course the WRX has more power, totally different engine, lower displacement, lower compression, and FI from the factory, which is more reliable than a N/A to Fi setup, that's like me saying Oh yeah! the WRX has more power than an EVO, of course that point has been made many of times, my reply was not about that ,I was simply stating a known fact in the RS community, the WRX tranny is weaker tranny than the RS, ask any Scooby Mech (that knows what the hell they're doing) and they'll tell you the same thing.
Oh BTW to all the n0obs and our subaru expert mod here are the GM (US RS spec) production numbers.

'98 Impreza RS Coupe 5-speed - 995 units
'98 Impreza RS Coupe automatic - 685 units
Total for 1998 - 1,680 units


'99 Impreza RS Coupe 5-speed - 1,795 units
'99 Impreza RS Coupe automatic - 345 units
Total for 1999 - 2,140 units


'00 Impreza RS Coupe 5-speed - 2,375 units
'00 Impreza RS Coupe automatic - 535 units
'00 Impreza RS Sedan 5-speed - 1,636 units
'00 Impreza RS Sedan automatic - 1,574 units
Total for 2000 - 6,120 units


'01 Impreza RS Coupe 5-speed - 1,701 units
'01 Impreza RS Coupe automatic - 324 units
'01 Impreza RS Sedan 5-speed - 1,057 units
'01 Impreza RS Sedan automatic - 1,011 units
Total for 2001 - 4,093 units

_____________________________________
Total for all production years - 14,033 units

The WRX on it's first production year in the US sold 20000 units, so yes sold more cars, it's subaru's flagship, so congratulations to all for driving the CIVIC of the Subaru community!
