So I blew 3rd a while ago in my 07 WRX and just replaced it with a used one, now that one has sheered off #1 shift fork roll pin. I want to slightly build my trans up so I won't have to worry about it but on the cheap as I wasn't expecting the second trans to fail...I know that the factory gears will not give me what I'm looking for either... so I've been looking at a set of 05-07 LGT gears for like $700 but it says my speedo will be off a little, the next set up is like $1200-1500. Looking for input.

PS I'm not doing an STI swap lol

It's either swap in another trans and hope for the best. Get a straight cut gear set 1/2/3 or 6spd swap it.

so I ended up going the cheapest route possible. LGT gears fro Flatironstuning.com and all new bearings, seals, and synchcros... total will be about $1800 not much else out there for that price. Used transmissions for 06-07 are going for like $2000-2500 with 150K on them!?
