Define knackered!

The engine is the same as an impreza engine, and assuming the turbo's are okay, you can transplant the lot onto a replacement short engine (engine less heads etc).

Manual into auto conversion has been done by a guy on here also, Stevie_Turbo did it a few months back.

Manual conversion is a lot of work. Def easier just to get a manual car.
Why not just replace the engine, as Pavlo says, its just the same as impreza. Any differences would not be worth worrying about.

Aha, Rallcy colin is the man with the engine I mailed you about.

If you just need an engine, I know someone that will buy the injectors for some sensible money.
