maximumBRAT Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 welcome!! What engine is in the impreza?? if you got the 2.2 (i don't remember when they put those in the impreza's) i'm doing the STi bottom end in a similar engine. I've also heard that's a good candidate for STi sleeper-ness. Welcome aboard! ~Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2drsimpreza Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 Yeah well bad news. I found out that they didnt put the 2.5 in the imprezas of that year. Not only that I blue booked it and it is worth 1000 dollars less than the selling price. I wont be getting it. I do still plan on finding one. But that car has a 1.8 as far as carfax said. Very upsetting. Like I said I dont know too much about subaru's yet so I didnt know that they didnt have the 2.5 I expected they did. But yes my idea of the perfect sleeper. (0ne day) Still lookingon ideas on bolt on power or maybe fuel/timing tricks. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 If you're planning to swap the WRX stuff in anyways, the origional engine size won't matter. The EJ18 in that impreza is a good engine, someone would want it for something. EJ25x were not in imprezas of that era, except 2.5RS's Which were not turbo's.
