We all know about failures of first generation of Subaru boxer diesel. It usually seizes around 100k km and engine block is deformed.

I wonder if anyone managed to install 2011+ engine in first generation of Imprezas.

I wonder whether this is possible.

I am currently looking (once again) for Impreza...this time Impreza GT...it is hard to get decent WRX first generation these days.

Challenge is...I drive 20-30k km per year and petrol turbo engine last about 200k km. Most used cars have 150-170k km.

Second generation of diesel Impreza is expensive to wreck out :-D

Any suggestions, please?
