Engine and Transmission Swap


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

Relatively new to Subarus, picked up a 1999 Legacy B4 sedan (JDM, I live in New Zealand) about 8 months ago. Has the EJ206 twin turbo, and a auto box behind it.

 

The engine has developed a bit of piston slap (was told this was normal by a friend who drives Subies) but it has gotten worse over the past month and now doesn't go away until the engine is warm, and is burning coolant (approx 200ml in 6 months). Engine has done just under 200k, so is due for a cambelt change anyway.

 

Has anyone swapped a EJ205 or EJ207 into their BE5? Also along side a manual swap? I've got mechanical experience building Skylines but I'm still learning electrical, so I can do it fairly easily, just looking for pointers.
