Will the stock driveline be able to cope with the stresses of all the power from the new power unit?? Why not just swap in an STi transmission as well??

Ah, my dream project . Seriously the cleanest RSti I've ever seen, not to mention one of the cleanest subarus I've ever seen. Wish I was the lucky man to drive away with it

The motor has been in the car since Nov 06 and there haven't been any signs or issues. Swapping an STi transmission into the car will cost ~$500 in labor plus the cost of the transmission. I personally don't need the 6th gear and don't drag race the car so I'm not too bothered with a transmission swap. The RS transmission is a ton of fun with its shorter gearing.
