deputythrust Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 I smashed up my 05 2.5i pretty bad. But now it's time to go engine shopping! What's my stock motor's engine code? Also, if I want a little more get up and go, what kind of engines would fit directly into my engine bay? thanks!
AWDxBOOST Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 ej25 is the engine code and ej series engine can drop in, but the drivetrain (axles, driveshafts etc) might be hard to source. the easiest and most logical swap would be a motor/tranny from an 05+ lgt there is a lot more in depth to swapping a motor than just bolting it in, be forewarned...it will cost a lot
SpawnGT Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 i hope you are alright and anybody else in the car is. Im a novice at all this but you cant just throw another engine in without upgrading other stuff. Im sure a last edition WRX engine can fit in there and all, but the engine you have the stock 2.5i is mated directly to a 4speed auto transmition meanign you have have to get somehting that'll mate up to your transmission as well as to the engine mounts, you should really consider just getting the same engine in there and doing some bolt on's such as intake. But itll cost way to much to throw another engine in that car. Do you have pics of the damage to you car? well i hope alls well. good luck. sorry for the accident.
