Doddle M8 - I've done thiws to 5 99-00 cars and it takes about 2 1/2 hours all in to do the job, need to "modify the bulkhead support for the gearbox pitch brace and cut 22mm off the Clutch reservoir and that is the difficult stuff done.

Remember that you'll also need to get a bigger 51mm 90-degree hose for the turbo-intercooler connection.

Yeah, swapping a newage WRX TMIC for a newage STi TMIC is a straight swap, slightly more involved and some work needed when swapping a newage TMIC into a classic car as the OP is looking to do.
