How much do you want to spend?

did you have a look at the FS thread here?
someone was selling a complete MY03 or 04 motor for around $3k

What model is your car?Underground has a complete 04wrx engine available.

my car is 01 bug

Yes but the variable valve timing won't work, meaning you'll more than likely be losing power with the 04 engine.

in about 2 weeks i'll have an MY99 EJ205 block and pistons going cheap. If your heads are still good...
