Hi,
can anyone please advise what year and model the following 6 speed unit comes from: EATY856WB2GA

I've got the chance of buying it for my classic (v3 sti) and it's just come out of a my99 sti. Apart from box, prop, diff and hubs is there anything else I need for the conversion. Thanks very much.

Thanks. I wasn't expecting that. How will that differ to a standard JDM box? Would that be a good choice for a Fast road car with occasional track days? Cheers

Christ yes. The 5-sp struggles with 350-400 and the only options to upgrade are the PPG gearset... or, even better, a New Age 6-sp!

How much is it going for?

I know it will cope with the power I'm thinking more in terms of ratios. How do the uk, jdm and spec c differ? I'm guessing it will be closer ratios?

lol sorry.

Have a look at mike h's link - it show the boxes' ratios/FD for all MYs and variants! ^^^

AFAIK, you need the starter and clutch cylinder off the new box, and the cradle it sits in when attached to the car might be of benefit.
