engine replacement, halfcut or recondition??
 

im looking at geting a new engine or reconditon mine later this year. how do others go about getting through this??

options im guessing are a newer engine, halfcut? or even use existing parts of mine. maybe a sti cut??

or recondition my engine.

any suggestions and/or prices???

How much are you budgeting on spending?

not to sure im hopeing somewhere between 2k up to 4k ??
i also forgot to ask about liberty twin turbo do they go in easily havent seen neone with one in a imprezza//

Rebuild with standard ~ 4k drive in drive out
Rebuild with forge internals ~ 5.5 to 6k (rough cost) drive in/out

EJ207 (if you can source them due to shortage) - 3.5k + 1.5k labour, drive in/out

2nd hand shortblock - 1.5k (withh avg ks) + 1.5k labour, drive in/out

Rough figures, best to check with more than one workshop for labour cost

id be taking care of the labour sector myself though, trained mechanic on hand! sorry for this question wat is the 207??

ej207 is factory sti motor with forged pistons and semi forged rods

go the ej207 route, fantastic motor and u can put alot of boost into this stock :). If my engine ever let go *touch wood* i'd throw a 207 in it strait away.

rebuild a 205 and put sti rods and pistons in it!!11 :rolleyes:
