Where to get a half cut?
For those of you who have undergone the conversion where would be the best place to get a half cut from? Looking to get a EJ25 NA possibly forester.
where did you get yours from?
Im in Brissy if that helps but if shipping was not too much would consider something a bit further away.

thought a full car might be a tad expensive and would not be using a lot of the car, could look into it though

I got our Subaru engine and parts from a direct import Japanese car wrecker AUTOJap. They gave a 3 month warranty on the engine, and a new cambelt and
water pump were fitted. I got the EJ22 engine absolutley complete as pulled out of the car, with flywheel, wiring loom, ECU, relays, igniter engine
mounts and exhaust back to CAT. The whole lot $1100 delivered.
I would assume ALLJap in Brisbane would do similar work.

As beerboy said just look around for a whole car ( usually wagons ) and you will be suprised at what you'll pay .
Most of the cheap ones will be auto's as when the auto fails it is around a 4 k rebuild for the box and hence the cars are undrivable and cheap as
and as low as $500 .
The other bonus of buying the hole car is all the left overs that you can sell off ,panels, wheels , tyres , interior etc
Don't let body work get in the way of real suspension travel
