hello everyone i need your help. i have a my99 uk impreza. i was involved i a car accident and i was left paralysed from the wasist down and now i want to convert my impreza to auto. just wondering is there anything i need to change on the electronic side, like do i need an auto ecu or can i use my ecu.and also is there anything else that i would need to change apart from the obvious of the pedal box and gear stick, your help would be appreciated thanks

Welcome

Your probably better off selling and buying an auto WRX model, most are wagons so 220ps, but you wont have to convert (at expense) anyway

I totally agree with what Tony says..............unless you can find someone who has already done this.

Have a mate on another subaru forum that has the same disability as yourself.
He has an auto but is looking into getting a legacy gtb tiptronic gearbox put in his.

not quite the same ratty dear boy, but I do use a wheelchair granted lol

WRX wagons were most common auto wise but there were some classic saloons too, sadly not in blue (rare as rocking horse s***)

I am researching the legacy tipronic idea for horse-shoe-ing into my much modified GL as ratty says.

Alternatively theres this Elap Mobility : Clutch Systems, Syncro Clutch, Duck Clutch

but if you need hand controls as well - that leaves a lot of work to do with two hands, steering - throttle & brakes - gear changing with hand operated clutch...

Bug eye'd import turbo's came with tiptroic, and theyr'e not easy to find
