Hi guys does anyone know if a ej205 short block will fit into a 2003 wrx with a ej205 long block?,and will the ancillaries bolt on to. Just thought about enquiring because you can pick up a new one for £2300 , looking at another potential option for replacing the engine. Cheers guys let me know what you think👍

 

EJ207 from importcarparts would be stronger and come with forged pistons and semi closed deck about the same price

 

I looked into getting a ej207 it’s just the insurance that’s the killer otherwise I would’ve gone that route.

 

It should not matter its just a 2 litre short block crank rods and pistons

 

Looks like the part quoted is a ej207.
As above 2.0 so no difference in insurance.
I think you will find ASperformance a little better on price.

 

I assumed it was a ej205 better check didn’t notice that
