Biggest issues are bell housing and starter motor on opposite side versus FA. It's still a tight squeeze though.

The other idea is put a LSx motor in it?

I know this is a Subaru but he could go the other avenue and take the Toyota approach and whack in a 2JZ?

Or you just change the pistons and put a turbo on and have 300hp+ in a 1200kg rwd car

This.
Why not just turbo the FA. Crawford seems to think it's better and more reliable at making power than the ej anyway...

^Crawford are also the same bunch that say you can make 400-500hp atw on the 06-14 EJs with stock internals and this reliable engine will last you years

The BRZ / 86 is expensive to make anything over 240HP and that is as far as I would want to push on the stock internals and clutch. Let's be honest it will cost you $7000 - $1000 to get that power... Not a cheap car.

They are a cool car, but parts and the car itself is over priced for what it offers.

way too much effort to put a EJ in and make it work.
One customer who has been smashing track days at wanneroo for the best part of a year has had no issues with the FA 20 motor and was tuned at tokyo motorsport after turbo conversion and is making around 276 hp at the rears.

Imo, efficient cooling, good tune and good mechanical sympathy (ie no boost before oil is hot) can greatly increase ej25 potential.

Dave's wife and kids are not fake, he is not gay, so why the fuck would he want a BRZ?
