Sportshift transmission?

Would it be possible to put a Sportshift auto transmission from a later model Legacy in my 91, and get everything to work properly? I don't think it's worth the effort to me to do a full 5MT conversion but I'd like to have some manual control.

What year/model Legacies had a sport shift?
A lot of Subaru trannies bolt up interchangably with a some component swapping. But, it's hard to say unless you can tell us a year you are referring to.
Personally, I'm not a fan of these sport shift trannies. Most are just the automatic tranny mechanism with buttons, so they have all the drawbacks of an AT and all the drawbacks of a MT with none of the benefits of either.

If I remember right they started making those in 2000 with the 3rd generation, but I'm not certain of that. Still comes from the Legacy though.

Looked into the sportshifter last year and was advised that it would take a jillion hours to sort out the wiring.
I'm considering using
