UK300? Thats a newage model isn't it? Would be on a T-reg for sure. Bugeye shape come out on 51/2001 plate. Must be a private plate.

Its a Uk300 on a t reg yes

You'll have to be more specific to get a correct answer.

The UK300 is a Bugeye. They came out in 2001.

A T reg/1999 is 100% the classic shape Impreza.

So you've either got a classic that someone has stuck UK300 badges on, or a Bugeye with a private plate.

Which is it?

its defo a t reg classic shape buddy, what engines fit it these then

OK. So its not a UK300. Out of interest. What gave you that idea?

Anyway. You really only have the choice of a 99-00 engine for a straight swap, without unsettling to much, ECU/electrics etc. Anything else is do-able, but more work.

must of been thinking of something else mate lol, how much would its cost to rebuild my engine?

Seems to be 1500-2000 from what I've read on here.
Best bet is to find out whats actually wrong with it before you think about that.
A second hand 99-00 engines go for around 700 quid.

where is the best place to look for second hand 99-00 engines, well i was booming down the a419 and suddenly lost power and oil went everywhere mostly coming for the o/s area of the engine and smoke comming from exhaust lol, dont really no whats wrong with it buddy

SUBARU IMPREZA WRX 2.0 ENGINE (YEAR 1999) on eBay, also, Subaru, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 11-Mar-09 21:52:27 GMT)
