Gearbox issue. Please help!

Gearbox issue. Please help!
I decided to upgrade from a 5 speed to an 07STI 6 speed DCCD box and the problem I'm having is that the gearbox doesn't have axle driveshafts (the stubs with splines coming off the gearbox, for the driveshafts to sit on) So my front driveshafts obviously wont fit. Is there a way of removing the stub shafts from the old 5 speed and putting them into the 6 speed? Or will I need 07 STI driveshafts and in which case, will they fit Subaru classic hubs?
Any advice, I would really appreciate!

Apologies if I am hyjacking the thread.... I have a very similar question, can the 6speed fit into my 01 WRX with the 'adapters' / stubs that you mentioned above.
I was always led to believe that the 6 speed conversion needed the driveshafts,diffs and hubs changed in addition to the box.
thanks for any help clarifying this,
cheers.

I have decided to order the stubs from subaruparts.com at £30 a piece. Will put them on an use my normal driveshafts. Just a warning. I put the engine and gearbox in without realising that the starter motor stud, from the 5 speed, doesn't fit the 6 speed. The 6 speed doesn't have threaded holes, so I'm going to have to tap it and find a stud that will fit
