My EJ22T bit the dust in November. Looking for a complete swap over to an EJ20G to hold me over until I can buy new internals for the EJ22T. Engine from a GC8 is preferable.
I can probably work out a pick up if it's in Oregon or NorCal.

I would look for a JDM engine importer. You can get the complete longblock or even whole front clip shipped to you on a pallet. Just do a google search there's a ton of these importers and you can check their inventory online and even get pictures of the merchandise.
I'll just say that from my EJ20G experience getting parts for them is a pain. There's a lot of stuff that is real hard to get like valve cover gaskets and I had to pay PREMIUM to get them and my car was sitting torn apart for months because of it.

If you get desperate enough to pick up something from SoCal, I have a really clean *LEGACY* EJ20G. Not your first choice, but let me know if you get "to that point".
I will not ship, however. It was a hassle getting it here, and I prefer not to go through that again.

Hey Matt,
Think we've talked on the phone and via email a couple of times about this..once I saw you were in K Falls.
I have a line on a complete 20g that can ship next week, as well as a twin turbo Ej20 if you haven't found anything yet..
LMK if you're still looking.

There is a list of parts# for EJ20G items that crossover with US parts on Rs25. Just about everything has a US x-over part....GodSquadMandrake wrote:I would look for a JDM engine importer.

Rallispec got me a set of H/G's for a EJ20G in a day (ordered on Thurs arrived on Fri!).... Cost was thirty something $$'s each.
I actually had the part # for the H/Gs & sent it to subarugenuineparts to check fit but instead of useful info i got a smart ass we don't have JDM parts here stupid answer, when they in fact did have the part & were just not willing to check fit.
I'll never order ANYTHING from SGP again.
Rallispec = the best!!!!
+1 on e-bay - you'll get a complete swap with trans harness everything for the price you may pay for just a longblock/engine swap in some areas. The EJ20G will run well on SS ECU/Wiring/Sensors if you feel lazy & just want to plop a motor in your car.

As far as the JDM engines with harnesses and ECUs go, you can "swap" to that if you want, but they are tuned for better octane fuel than we have in the US, so tend to detonate among other things.BXSS wrote:There is a list of parts# for EJ20G items that crossover with US parts on Rs25.

Ideally for a Legacy Turbo to 20g swap, they run great on a USDM ecu. You don't need the JDM ecu to get it to run. It's pretty straightforward as far as swaps go. Also, very reliable and much quicker than with the 2.2 UDSM engine.
Parts can be a bit more difficult to get than for US cars, but there are some things that crossover and can interchange between the US and JDM 2.0s.

Here is one of the WRX EJ20G part # posts.

The EJ20G does run well on the ej22t ECU, just try to avoid the older Legacy EJ20G's as they have an old rocker arm valvetrain.
