Gearboxes, DCCD, quickshift etc
Having had a change of plan and gone for a 6 speed DCCD box, rather than a 5 speed PPG build - I have the following for sale:
MY95 STI RA gearbox Code TY752VB3EA.
3.9 front diff, gear ratios 3.454 2.333 1.750 1.354 0.972
With DCCD, 1:1 drop gears
Came off my car when the 6 speed went in. Its got approx 80k on it, but about 10k miles ago the nut that holds 5th came loose (a common problem) which resulted in a broken woodruff key and 1-2 selector rings. I had it rebuilt by API and it has run faultlessly ever since. It does have a slight crunch when changing into 3rd on occaision, but I haven't found it a problem - it doesn't do it during day to day running, just the odd time on a high rev 4th-3rd downshift.
I feel a fair price would be £500 ono +postage for the gearbox considering the slight 3rd gear crunch. I can also source the correct rear diff so the whole lot can fit any 5 speed car.
Would consider splitting the DCCD box...
MY95 UK turbo2000 Gearbox Code TY752VN3BA
3.9 front diff, ratios 3.454 1.947 1.366 0.972 0.738
Viscous centre diff with 1.1:1 drop gears
Has broken 3rd gear and synchro, I purchased this purely for the 5th gear to go with the planned PPG 1-4 set into the STI RA box above. £75 +postage
MY95 STI RA quickshift Genuine STI item, full linkage and Nardi gearknob. Very short presice throw - fits MY93-96, possibly 97-8 but you'll have to check£120 ono +postage
Propshaft Fits all classic 5 speeds and was mated to a R160 rear diff £30 +postage

For UK owners if you want STI RA gearing all the bits are here, just buy the 2 boxes and swap the centre diffs and transfer boxes, then sell on the DCCD
You could even put the long 5th in for the motorway whilst you're at it 
Or you could buy the top box and source a sport rear diff (£150 from HDC) and you'll have the benefits of an open DCCD (35:65 rear torque bias), this is what you get without the controller fitted, and in my experience the open setting is where the diff is set 99% of the time anyway

May condsider selling the DCCD and transfer case seperately if no interest in the whole box.
Just a note, the 2 boxes together are the ideal donor for a PPG DCCD big power / drag car
