STI Engine Question
 
What should be printed on a Jap Spec Version 6 Engine block. EJ20 0r EJ207

Mister Two 25-03-2009 04:38 PM

ej207.

ej207 is a member of the ej20 engine group. the term ej20 covers a broad range of 2L engines from subaru.

Ok, I nearly had a heart attack because i read on my block EJ20. I thought i had been jipped into buying a standard wrx engine with a red manifold thinking it was a STI engine. My block has EJ20 on it, does this mean it's still got the forged internals?

Rossco 25-03-2009 05:49 PM

I'll just go and check for ya!

EJ20 on block, "600" on righthand head (top rhf corner).

Please do!!, I'm fucking stressing ATM. I might have to go and kill someone if this is a stock WRX bottom end. It was sold by JWS as a Jap Spec Version 6 STI. It came with a stock WRX intercooler and i was like WTF!!!... Now i have spent thousands on Mods and will be seriously pissed if I have been screwed.

It says 006 on the left hand head and on the left is has 001 and says Japan on it. The turbo is the vf29... Hope i'm ok.

Rossco 25-03-2009 06:23 PM

VF29 IS the Jap V6 Sti turbo...

I have one on my V6 too (stock aus had VF28...Mine died @ 192,000km!!)

Stock WRX intercooler ???

Bit odd.

I'd be checking out those internals properly asap...

reflexwrx 25-03-2009 08:32 PM

Does anyone know if the block should say EJ207??? Does the Version 6 have forged internals. I was under the impression the Version 6 had a EJ207 bottom end with forged internals.
