You dont buy second hand cranks, only new ones unless you want to pay for another rebuild (which your going to need anyway), you cannot just replace the crank and bearings.
Crank will cost you around 4-450 quid for the upgraded twin scroll one, the rest you need to check out, I would speak with API or Mocom for rebuild costs.

Gooner1 on ESC has an STi engine forsale which would go in yours no probs. Bought from Bob5 originally other than that you need to research proper engine builders and speak to people offline as you wont get a proper recommendation on snet for want of fanboys and litigation
