you do know that engine doesn't just swap in without alot of other stuff. to use an STi tranny you will need STi differentials, hubs and axles. if you don't have the right diffs. that go with whatever tranny used, then the front and rear wheels will go different speeds and you will break something expensive before you get out of the driveway. N/A subaru's also use a push style clutch while turbo ones use a pull style. they aren't interchangeable. you can use the stock N/A gearbox with a heavy duty clutch. they have shorter, quicker ratios than the wrx and sti which makes it faster. but you have to be easier on them because they are weaker (no 5k rpm clutch drops...etc.) oh...and its also a wiring nightmare! just thought i would give ya a heads up
