If not, then its not going to be a proper inspection.. any mechanic can check the stuff you've listed, but only a specialist can look for the idiosyncrasies that exist within a Subaru. |

Well im the new owner of a 2000 subaru wrx
Turns out the gearbox has something wrong with it (not a whine but a clicking noise off load) like the sound that intermeshing gears would make. So i managed to get the price down $2500 to include in the cost of getting this fixed. Ive called stechnic but it seems quite expensive even for a non new 5 speed. Does anyone know where/what it may cost to get a brand new 5 speed fitted?? |

You have rung the right place already, Stechnic.
Or search on this forum for mechanics, and you'll find allstars and maximum motorsport, and a few others.

So you paid $10500 with gearbox problem? Use the search function and you shall find! Look for a 01+ 5 speed as they are known to be stronger than the older model boxes!

Dude seriously why would you agree to buy a car that you know has issues with a gearbox before doing some research on what it actually costs to get a box repaired or replaced ?

Well, I hope you've budgetted for a new gearbox. When I bought my car it had issues that I knew about and like you, managed to negotiate the price down. But I did however find out how much in total that I'll need to spend to bring the car back up to 100%. IF you didn't...well, start saving up mate
