After 89 views without a reply, I'm wondering if eveybody else is asking the same question.
What does FCC stand for?? and what is it you are hoping to swap?

sorry I meant dccd bloody predictive. I’ve currently got a 5 speed and I’ve been offered a 6 speed setup without the gearbox (wondering whether it would all fit in my current 5 speed) for a good price.

If it doesn't include the rest of the 6MT box (gear set only) then no, as 5MT and 6MT are totally different.
Plus the UK WRX is narrow body as against STI wide body (drive shafts and hubs different) and doesn't come with any wiring for the DCCD.
The UK WRX 5MT runs 4.444 diffs front and rear with 1:1 drop gears, the UK WRXSTI runs 3.900 front diff and 3.545 rear with 1.100 drop gear ratio.

I thought as much to be honest mate. I knew it wasn’t gonna straight forward and probably cost me lots of money also.
