Anybody got a rough idea how much it's going to be for a 6 speed box, with and without dccd? I don't know whether to cut my losses and break the car or keep chucking money at it.

6 speed without probably about £1200 I think, Matt on scoobynet probably a good call.

IF it eases the pain my gearbox has 1 faulty solenoid and subaru will only sell me the complete assembly comprising of 6, special order from Japan for £1015 + vat coming on a slow boat...

Wow that's gotta hurt.
Was looking at that box, but don't know if I could live with it crunching from 4th to 5th. Also wondering if I should bite the bullet and go for dccd. The annoying thing is I've just spent £700 replacing the bloody clutch! If there was a readily available 5 speed I'd probably go that route....
Thanks riiidaa.

I'm guessing it was too much torque for the standard box, and changing down into first too aggressively to race a Porsche that I dint know wanted a race...��
