If you have an MY02 STi, you have a EJ207 semi closed deck block from factory. This is the engine of choice.

The cost to make a 2.5L reliable is very high for the gains you will get. Better off sticking to the EJ207 and if you want more displacement do a stroker kit.

cheers, i dont really like the stock taillights. These aftermarket ones look good, if it wasnt for the leak in the seal on the left hand side, i could always just drain it out, reseal myself, then drill a small hole in the bottom, so if it clogs up again, it can drain out.

And some of you might even see my car driving around wanneroo/joondalup, as thats where i am based haha
