  1. I won't say yes or no, but the 2000 Legacy shares nothing with the GC and GD Impreza as far as rear suspension goes, therefore you will not be able to do a simple hub swap like the GC Impreza and BD Legacy (ie 1995-1999 models) can.
  2. I used my 5spd crossmember and a 6spd mount.
  3. I run an ACT 6 puck sprung with the HD pressure plate, but then again the setup going into my car will not handle the street disk. My 6 puck has deceleration noise.
  4. However, the R180 is taller and wider than the R160 and you can't put an R180 (180mm R&P) into a R160 (160mm R&P). Also the "differential" in the R160 is so puny that I wouldn't even consider it a differential.
  5. I just realized I made a mistake in my last little paragraph. I meant to say you need to find a pull style pressure plate and throwout bearing and not flywheel.
  6. Not necessarily. The 05-09 Legacy GT/Outback XT use a push style pressure plate and throwout bearing, fork, and slave cyl. The WRX clutch that is referred to in the NASIOC thread refers to the fact that 02-07 WRX 5spds use a pull style clutch that is the same as what the 04+ 6spds use. If you want to run a 5spd clutch and flywheel on your 6spd setup you would need to find a pull style pressure plate and flywheel, in which case its then better just to find a 6spd clutch/PP/fly.
  7. I paid $2800 shipped for an 05 STi tranny with 50k miles on it and it came with a flywheel, clutch, and shifter assembly. Then another $400 shipped for an R180. 04-06 you wont notice a difference in gearing compared to the 07+ trannies so I'd go with what you can find cheapest. The 04-05 have weaker 5th and 6th gear synchros compared to the 06+.
  8. You need to do a lot more reading on the subject. You won't be able to run 5x114 hubs unless you do some custom machining (read: not worth it). As far as DCCD Controller, an easier setup than wiring in the factory DCCD controller is the DCCDPro controller. I run it with my 6spd and it's a great system and very painless install. I would recommend it over trying to wire in the factory DCCD anytime. Factory front axles will work without issues. If the rear axles are the same as the 05-09 LGT, then you can get 07-09 Spec B axles and run them with the R180. There is no need to swap rear hubs or front hubs. Find a driveshaft from a 4EAT Legacy (05-09 Automatic 2.5i N/A Legacy)
  9. Only the 4EAT and 07-09 Spec B driveshaft works with the 6spd
  10. Weird, I swapped in my 5spd reverse switch and my reverse lights work everytime.
  11. I paid $145 for mine, but that's because I happened to luck out and a junk yard very close to me had one.
  12. Yeah, woops heh. I'd have no problem helping you installing it, I just wish you were much closer.
  13. Hollywood is a farther drive from Tampa than Boca, albeit both drives are quite long. enaggs, get with me before you purchase that turbo kit so we can discuss how to tackle the project and what not. I may not own a shop and working on cars is not my profession, but I am very meticulous with anything I install, whether it's on my car, or someone else's car.
  14. I'm sorry but S&R is a joke. I've personally worked on 3 cars (1 of them I had the motor apart) that S&R built and there were bolts that were over-torqued which left me with sheared bolts, broken timing cover, head gaskets reused, and somehow they missed an unsealed valve before putting a motor back together. I've seen their work and truthfully, I'm not impressed. Honestly, the thing I stress the most when it comes to modding cars is to learn how to do everything yourself and when it comes to custom fabrication, find yourself someone that does great work at a great price if you can't do it yourself. Since you're in Tampa, if you want to learn how to install the parts yourself, I'm always willing to help fellow enthusiasts.
