okay, seriously, it depends. Assuming you want no DCCD to make the install simpler and the gearbox cheaper, you just need the box, driveshaft, linkage and shifter, slave cylinder, clutch and flywheel, and one of two rear diff options. You can either just swap the ring and pinion from your diff (which is cheaper, but more fragile) or do it the "right" way and get the whole R180, rear halfshafts, and rear hubs. That will also require you to switch to 2 pots, either the STi or Brembo versions. There are also some issues with installation that need to be dealt with, but nothing major.
And if you want the DCCD? Just add the DCCD tranny, and some sort of control box to plug the two switches into? It doesn't require an STi ECU or gauge cluster, right?
