Default Sti Gearbox?

Hi All,

I am a very recent Scooby owner!

The Impreza I own is a 1997 Import Sti 555 with TY752VBCAA transmission.

The question I have is does the import gearbox have short legs, as in, will the car run out of puff at 115mph?

If so Has the Uk box got longer legs?

I have looked at the gearbox ratio chart but this made no sence to me!

Many Thanks

Andy

Your car is still limited to 115mph,you are don't need new gearbox.

Thanks for the quick reply,

So if the speedo delimiter is fitted what top speed would I expect?

Thanks again

Andy

Not sure Andy,but maybe someone with more experience with classic will tell you more

Out are two types of de-limiter,mechanical and electronic,but not sure which one you have

Just a thought,

Being a V3 sti It has a speedo cable, so is the electronic delimiter still usable?
