Transmission swap

[Dictater]

Okay so I have a 00 Legacy GT Limited with an automatic transmission that I want to swap out for a manual (of course just like everyone else). My friend has a 02 Forester with a manual transmission however she wants an automatic, well u see where I'm going with this.

I've been lurking around the forums doing research and from what I've seen I believe the new transmission will fit.
My Legacy: TY754VCADA 3.454 2.062 1.448 1.088 0.780 N/A 3.333 1.000 4.111 Viscous (4kgf) Open
Forester: TY755VC2AA 3.545 2.111 1.448 1.088 0.780 N/A 3.333 1.000 4.111 Viscous (4kgf) Open

The first two gears are a little bit different, however the final drives match up which was my biggest concern. The parts that I have seen I will need to invest in are
Flywheel
Clutch
Pressure Plate
Front Driveshaft section
Entire shifter assembly
Clutch and brake pedals, cables
Clutch master cylinder and reservoir (for hydraulic systems)
Transmission crossmember
Rear Differential

My questions are A: Am I correct will this fit? B: What could I possibly salvage from the setup of the Forester that she will no longer need. Lastly what would she need to allow the automatic to run? Not looking to upgrade the performance just keep it as completely stock as possible.

I am still semi new in the subaru world. I have had my BE for about 2 months now and I am just trying to get educated. Not trying to be another newcomer asking you guys to do my research for me. Just want to make sure what I have found thus far is correct and am open to other thoughts and opinions.

Well problem number 1 with the gear ratios you've listed is that they are both 5spd (i.e. both manual) but that doesn't really matter.

I always thought the Forester had a 4.44 but I could be wrong.

Swapping in a manual where an auto was is MUCH easier than swapping in an auto where a manual was. Why? Because of the TCM--transmission control module. Manual doesn't have it, so it doesn't need to be wired. Auto requres it, so you need the wiring for it. Basically, you'd be looking at having to swap the entire engine and trans harness in order to make that work. Since you two both have basically the same engine, you might be able to swap the harnesses from each car and make it work. If you were going from an 00 Impreza to an 02 Forester I'd say you almost certainly could, but since the BE is a completely different chassis, I don't know.

As far as what you can salvage, again, because you have a BE, not sure about any of the interior parts. If it were an Impreza or a BD/K/G, then i'd say certainly yes. But the trans and anything that bolts directly to it should be a direct swap.
