So I am going to do the EJ swap with my brat its a 1980 gen 1 brat and im looking for a car to buy that I can pull what I need out of which is the EJ22 engine, transmission, and computer along with anything else I might need however I was wondering do I have to put a 5spd dr into it or can I just go with a automatic trans with four wheel drive that normally comes hooked to these engines in the impreza or legacys otherwise if somone in my general area has what im looking for let me know I would preffer to get a whole vehicle so I can pull what I need from it but if somone that has done this has everything they know I would need let me know the general area being minnesota also willing to travel into wisconsin or even down as far as possibly iowa

I highly doubt the Legacy's automatic transmission would fit... The D/R is your best bet. There's the option of a 3AT but I wouldn't trust one with that much power.
