I have been doing some reading on NASIOC about what parts I should buy for my repair. From talking to Dylan(DS1 Motorsports), he said that I only
need to buy 2nd drive gear and a new main shaft. I told him that my trans. has 89k on it and that I have the early MY04 (that has since been "improved" with the following parts.)

3rd & 4th gear sleeve & hub 32605AA180 <-- This part is now HIGHLY recommended by subaru if you are buying new syncros. They redesigned some of the syncros and this 3/4 hub/sleeve in 2005 to provide smoother shifting. You can no longer buy the older syncros or the old 3/4 hub/sleeve. (there is a TSB about it). I did not know about this part and did not install it. I haven't had any problems yet (as of 6/12/07)

I don't know enough about the transmission to know if those parts are completely necessary and Dylan doesn't seem to think so.

I also read something that suggested replacing some or all of the bearings. Again I know nothing about this.
Any input would be appreciated
