need more info on the car. classic?
newage?
sti/wrx?
uk turbo?
sport?

subaru????

would have thought for a uk car maybe £2-2500 for a good rebuild.

cant really offer any accurate prices, but sure someone else will be along soon too hazard a guess for you

I second that! I would not be at all happy if I had my engine rebuilt and it only lasted two years.
