I can't remember if the current Subaru WRC cars are built by Prodrive or
not; I think they are. In any case, the transmission in a WRC car has *no*
relationship to what's in a production car. If any of you saw Speedvision's
coverage of the Argentina rally the other night, you may have seen the
gearbox from Richard Burns's car- it has all sorts of hoses and things that
just aren't on a production Subaru. Really not a valid comparison at all.
