Welcome to the board. A lot of questions have already been answered if you search around a bit.

Everybody takes the tranny out by lowering downwards.

There's a write up and photos of a transmission swap on the "www" portion of legacy central:

It won't fit.

97 = push type clutch. There aren't provisions to bolt the clutch slave cylinder (which you'd need to use the clutch) to the transmission.

05 STi = pull type clutch, AND it will hit the bellhousing of the 97 transmission.
