Sell your car and buy an STI, far easier and cheaper.

ye but ill get next to fek all 4 a wrx wth fekd engine.

 

well now there's a surprise. tony is right cut yer losses and buy an STi.

 

ye thanks 4 ur help.

 

no probs HTH

 

Remember the parts you have listed are just for the engine, you need to factor in brakes, suspension etc. For the price of STI engine box diff etc maybe look at a stroker kit with a newly built engine or 2.5. lots of options just need to ring people and gets prices.

 

Best option is to use an sti short engine with the wrx heads> will all fit in then without a problem

 

An STI engine & ECU is all that's required.
I did this last year with no problems whatsoever.
A few small alterations to the original wrx harness and the AVCS worked a treat, Although I did smash a few built gearbox's before doing what I should have done in the first place and that's fitting a STI 6 speed.
In hindsight it probably would have been cheaper to sell up and buy a STI in the first place, But wheres the fun in that eh

 

thats more like it,beginin 2get somwer now,cheers guys,any names n number of who can do this 4 me wd b more than welcome,preferably in scotland.
