hello guys and gals. my old 2 liter engine is on the blink...has been rebuilt a few too many times, and its about time i replaced it. the cost of a rebuild/new engine just seems to steep for my likings so im looking for a Subaru motor preferably an EJ22 to put in it.

I'm after a full engine, loom, radiator, everything. or a half cut.

im ringing wreckers on Monday morning to see what i can find. but the EJ20T (wrx) seems a lot easier to come by, but not what im after from what Ive read so far.

if anyone has something. or can point me in the best direction that would be greatly appreciated. (i intend on doing everything myself)

yay for boost, my skyline has the boost, its alot of fun 🙂 but i wouldnt complain about boosting another car. that link is awesome 🙂 comondoor ute does a big burnout while the bug pulls up slowly. then hoses him down the strip. nice work!!

Hey man, very long time no see. im still out west alot, but moving back at the end of the year and gonna get into workin on cars again!! yay. sounds good about the Liberty. im after pretty much everything that would come in the front cut except for brakes and gearbox basically. any idea how much hes looking at for the whole car? (not that i can really have a whole car sitting around but if the price is right...) and PM me as soon as you know plz 🙂

Have a look at ebay there was a B4 liberty motor. Twin turbo 2litre. Twins are twice the fun!
68 Baja - It's a growing pain!
58 Baja ute - and the pain spreads!
85 T3 Kombi - still growing
89 T3 Kombi - parts car

Ifyou dont like that one I know a bloke who has a twin turbo B4 donk (front cut - cost him $3.5K) with Sherman adapeter kit (cost him $1.5K) ready to install but he ran out of cash and his kombi ran out of rego.

He wants $3.5K for the whole lot but I'm sure he will take offers.

He is in Sydney though.

Cheers,
