Default looks like i am building an engine, spun big end

My 94 GC8 WRX spun a big end bearing on friday
i think a life of slack maintenance from it's previous owners and probably having been given a good thrashing or two in it's life has finally caught up with it.

anyway, now i have to fix it. or one of my other engines. I have an EJ207 which seems in reasonable nick other than that it has also had a bottom end failure so i am thinking i might put my money and time into that rather than the EJ20G that is in my car. How would i go installing that in my car?

the heads on the 207 seem good, so i'll probably just leave them alone and do bottom end work to get it up to scratch.

thinking it's going to need a crank, rods, pistons, bearings and of course gaskets and seals.
where do you guys go for this type of stuff, i would happily buy from overseas if it can save me some $ seeing as i can't buy locally because of where i live. and what do i need to look out for to be sure of compatibility? and what brands should i be looking at? i don't have a heap of cash but should have enough to get by.

P.S has anyone ever ordered from CI motorsports, they seem to have everything i need at reasonable prices, perhaps too good to be true??
