And I have read, re-read and re-read again, and either I'm going blind, mad or both! but nowhere on the second paragraph or any other paragraph does it say it had an ej257....?????

See what your saying .... It doesnt actually say its a 257 directly, i just read it as implying that it shared the engine with the impreza sti of the same year.
If you pull the heads off, my money would be on it being an SCD!

Good post Don .... thats the answer then!
Think i may have added confusion by getting 255's confused with 251's .... as arent the 255's semi closed too .... i.e. the same block as a 257???

Great thread!!!!!
As the very proud owner of a FSTi myself im looking forward to your project on what is IMHO one of thee best family cars out there!!!!
As Don says you should pop over onto the Europe section of subaruforester.org where us FSTi owners normally frequent! I know there will be more people there that will be interested in your Fozza!!!
Good luck

Great thread indeed 
Don't forget OzFoz.com.au
I am looking to do something very similar to this on my FSTi: http://ozfoz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2143
The new billet wheel turbos are giving fantastic gains.

One of the boys on the Foresters Site made over 400 brake without tooo much mods.
It was a Black FSTI in stealth.
Used to disappoint big beast cars.
It has been known that Fozs disappoint all sorts of "intersting" cars.
I even "surprised" a Porsche Cayninne on the M5 with my last Foz.
They say, that Impreza owners, who understand the understated potential of a FSTI, secretly yearn for one??
Any pointers for making yer Foz "intersting" just give us a call.
For the Impreza Boys/Legacy boys we are just a click away.
Happy Subaruing everyone.
Is P Lewis stilll around??
regards.
