If cash is tight,a good option is to have an engine from a running car thats being dismantled from the forum,then you can hear it running etc before buying

you can buy an engine from most places that do that sort of thing,BUT,getting a reliable one is a different matter

rebuilding the original is favoured but again,it depends on £££ in your wallet

Wouldn`t it be a good idea to get it checked out first before looking for an engine?

Do a google search for SMR engines and it's affiliates.............and avoid like the plague.

Have a look on the for sale section of SN and SIDC for a car being broken. The residual prices for impreza's are so low that they are often worth more in bits
