quit Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Your gearbox code should be on the metal plate in the engine bay Then you can find what diff you require 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hi mate welcome to S.O.C You have to look for it on the Gearbox itself from memory it's passanger side of the bellhousing. If you shine a torch down the left side of the motor at the back near the firewall where the gearbox meets the motor you should see a white sticker with the code on it. If not try the driver side, should be able to see it. but some links here that might help too http://spda-online.ca/content.php?44-transmission-chart http://www.catherineandken.co.uk/sti/trans.html http://subarugears.narod.ru/Index.htm it's all the same info just gave multiple links just in case anyone is looking for them at a later date and the site is down. Forward planning :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tlag Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 The gearbox code sticker is just above the starter motor not he bell housing. From memory, the code is about 16 digits long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Oh there you go I couldn't remember I knew I had seen it. And wasn't going out to check straight away. Chucking it down with thunder and lighting :) Cheers Tlag Should look like this TY856WB1AA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I think you should have a r160 rear diff with a 3.5.4 uk ratio as standard just google your ty.... gearbox code (off the white sticker under the tmic near the starter motor) to double check as it might have had a box change in the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
