JDM TY752VBCAA in my Bug Wagon ???
Hi folks.
Yesterday whilst fitting a V9 Hawkeye wide track STI subframe and rack to my 2001 Bugeye Wagon I spied a familiar looking number on the gearbox sticker...the TY752VBCAA from a V3 STI
...I'm well puzzled because it has had a rumble from the rear under hard acceleration since I bought it and I'm wondering has the previous owner changed the box without changing the rear diff to match maybe??? I have a TY754 box and matching diff in the shed which I have been meaning to fit in the event the rear diff did give up but until yesterday I had never even noticed that gearbox sticker and didn't know I was running a JDM box with a different ratio to a UK one. What I do know however is that without taking the diff cover off there is no other way of identifying what diff is fitted 
Here's the specs;
JDM Impreza WRX & WRX STi Ver.III/IV MY97-98
(also STi V-Limited Ver.III MY97) TY752VBCAA 3.166 1.882 1.296 0.972 0.738
3.416 1.000 4.444 Viscous (4kgf) Open Double-cone 3rd synchro added (all turbo Impreza)
US Impreza WRX MY02 TY754VN2AA 3.454 1.947 1.366 0.972 0.738
3.333 1.100 3.900 Viscous (4kgf) Open Rev. pop-out addressed 10/01 (main shaft, rev. idler, rev. hub)
