SUBARU3 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Quick question: Will a 1996 Impreza AWD automatic trans work/fit in a 2000 Impreza AWD automatic, (non turbo) 2.5? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 The main separation year is 99. Anything 90 - 98 is a safe bet will swap just fine. Anything 99 or newer will likely swap just fine, but going from pre 99 to post 99 you run into problems. Differences in electronics, wire harnesses, different bellhousing bolt patterns, etc. A 90 - 99 trans will physically bolt to a 2000 engine just fine, it's just the other particulars that will make or break it. I'd stick to 99+ for a transmission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
