STI V3/4 gearbox into MY99 Turbo
Hi m8s
I own a MY99 Turbo with a damaged gearbox.
I'm thinking about buying a STI V3/4 gearbox ( TY752VBCAA ) with 4.444 diff.
Would this be a straight fit into my 99 Turbo?
thx!

The gearboxes are physically interchangable although the bell housing bolts vary but that is not a problem
Best to use another TY754 from a UK car.
Assuming your car is a UK turbo 2000 M/Y 99 then you have a front diff of 3.9, a centre drop gear of 1.1 :1 and 3.545 rear diff.
STi3/4 are 4.44 F & R with drop gear 1.0 : 1.

The TY 752 only has 4 bolts attaching it to the engine whereas a TY754 has 8 bolts.
The 752 will bolt straight up as I have put a TY752 into my MY99 uk turbo.
Until I can afford a PPG gearset for my TY754VN1aa original box.

If you want to replace a bust gearbox on a 99-00 GT and don't want to go six speed, you'd be far better advised to get hold of one from an MY01-MY04 UK/EU spec WRX than the option you're considering.
