SHORT ENGINE SUBARU EJ25 FOR IMPREZA WRX LEGACY FORESTER 2.5 LTR 2001-07

 

Anyone help? Don't want to order it if it's no good , any info good or bad will be appreciated , thanks

 

I wouldn't take a chance with this and it would be just that.
Any rebuild, particularly a 2.5 should be sourced from a reputable builder and there aren't many that are known to us on here.
Sometimes Paul Finch, website Finchmotorsport has a shortmotor for sale, enginetuner, scoobyclinic, api are others but rebuilds are done to order and not usually sitting there waiting for someone.
Definately worth contacting Paul.

That's brilliant thanks , I'll save up a bit more then contact them see what's going to be best , thought it was too cheap lol , thanks again

 

That is a N/A 2.5 short motor in the ebay link.
