"felt like a 800whp car shifting real hard then boom gone"

Sounds to me like the "shift easy into second" wasn't so easy. You say the driveshaft had to be replaced, and I don't know anything about how that came about, so I will refrain from comment about that particular item.


If you claim you can shift, why does it matter how he drives? You claim you can shift the car without forcing or slamming the trans. Anyways, enough of that shit. If you're looking for a stronger trans, upgrade the gearset. Even the 04-05 WRX gears were cut with wider teeth to give some added strength, but they're not "bulletproof". Also realize that will put pressure on other parts of the drivetrain... clutch, driveshaft, and half-shafts (aka axles).

cmon guy! i said when i shifted it broke. but when it broke thats when it felt like a 800 etc etc. anyhoo i never claimed to know anything bout subies. i just research, and about the driveshaft i was told that........so if there is no help just leave it alone.....i already have enough negativity w/o having her so thanks for the help....al
