ALl that stuff was redisigned! Shit, the prodrive transmission in the WRC subarus is worth OVER 70,000 dollars... Ive heard a lot of people say that the center diff being variable isnt worth the trouble and cost to replace it.. The rally teams you may be talking about use it due to horsepower restriction.. But in a street car world, that CRAP is USELESS. Im willing to bet a wrx with the same coilovers put on an STi, and 3 MECH LSD's, would kick the crap outta an STi hangin around playing with settings around a track, given no power variable . That DCCD isnt really worth a shit! In fact, 3 STi owners i know say they dont ever even bother to change it.. lol..AND, they drive the PISS outta their cars!!! So when it breaks, and if you own one, you can pay 2,000 + for that little toy, I would just pull it and play with what works best in racing anyhow.. Besides, i NEVER said rally car, i just was talking about street cars. I dont know ANYONE running anything close to a WRC setup nor will I, the TRANS is worth more than a whole WRX
