Do you mean the bottom end that's pretty strong? I think Frank off the Swiss/German Impreza boards fitted an entire STi7 bottom end into his GT...and is pretty happy with the results

EJ205 and EJ207 block castings are the same for MY99-00, short motors differ in terms of pistons only. If you are looking to get hold of a short engine (block) then the STi7 one is best as it is semi closed deck as opposed to open deck, thats what I use in my car and its been good. All Sti engines from MY99 up are EJ207 but the MY01 onwards are semi closed deck.

If your going to pay for a new short motor. Why not go for the EJ25 or even the EJ25 sti motor from the states.
Apart from the 25% increase in capacity the 100mm bore is even more efficient then the 92.7mm bore when it comes to opening up the combustion chamber and unshrouding the valves.

Q´s,
Can a EJ25 block be used with just other pistons???
There is not a semiclosed EJ25 block is there
And what about the heads,use the OE ej20 or use the Ej25heads
Thanks,
SKassa

Somebody might correct me, but I noticed two different STi closed deck blocks (unknown MY): one was externaly looking like EJ205/EJ207 but closed deck while the other was externaly looking quite different: apparently more water room around cylinders, casted stiffners around those water chambers like the v.7 & 8...
Anyone ever noticed something looking like that ?
