The transmission was RPO option M-22, otherwise known fondly as 'The Rockcrusher'.

Oh yes...the Rockcrusher. I have version 6 STi RA gears in my WRX and had the Muncie M-22 Rockcrusher in a 1955 Bel Air 2 1/2 years ago. I must say, the RA's do not hold a candle to how loud the Muncie tranny was. But boy would that (M-22) take abuse!

So not true. I think everyone that owns a Subaru knows that these cars do not get chicks.
