this may help you to find any basics if ya ever do need anything,
then research it from there?
look under oil filler cap if its the orig one should have a date stamp
Wiki page on EJ engines is absolutely useless when it comes to AUDM cars.
Its all based on JDM and USDM stuff.
Wish I read this thread before, I just walked outta the Subi joint about half an hour ago.
Your engine is one of the later 2001 onwards AVCS motors with that stupid 2 stage manifold setup
Its most likely a Forester or Lib 2L engine, its not the early imp motor.
Thank you for that info will help when ordering parts... I was even trying to google images as I noticed the oil filler and dipstick are opposite to each other and most are on the same side...
do you have a photo of the motor ?
