Recommended Posts

I found a list of parts off of some imprezas that I want to run by you guys:

-Crank from 2.5rs

-Head from 2.5rs

-pistons from 2.5rs

-tmic '04 WRX

-TD04 Turbo from '04 WRX.

Would I be able to put these on my legacy without having to do anything else; or should I buy other parts

Many issues, if it were this simple many of us would've done it.

Major issue is engine mgt. How are you going to manage this?

the 97 gt 2.5 has thrust on #3 and 48mm journals. 2.5 RS crank has #5 thrust and 52mm journals. The RS pistons are a high compression, turbos generally are low compression.

You need to do much more research before you attempt this.

autocross, IMO you want a car with a shorter wheel base.

 

The 2.5rs with a STI is fairly common.

 

Or just do suspension and brake up grades that your class allows, do you have arule book ?

305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).  CHECK your oil, these cars use it.
