Kennedy do the Subaru engine plate kit :-) ISTR last time I looked at this it was about $3500 (not including fitting) based on an exchange with your existing 4 speed model. If you have the energy to look I suspect that you may actually be able to import a re-conditioned one from the UK or Europe for considerably less, or if you have contacts over there a straight second hand one from a breakers yard (US = wrecking yard?). Just Kampers in theUK may be able to provide some info. Bruce > Max |
