my motor is siezed. will not spin. didnt lose the oil, never overheated it. and its fuckin pouring down rain so I dont want to work on it. pretty pissed at this car right now. car may get parted out, or get a ej22t not too sure yet.

shitty! I'd offer up our garage for the afternoon, but this does not sound much like an afternoon project.

guess it's time for a swap! lemme know if you need any pieces from mine that may get removed during the turbo stuff install.

thanks laurel, but you are right, it does not seem to be an afternoon project. I have a line on some ej20g's with cut harnesses that I may go look at. but I would definitely rather find a ej22t parts car for the ease of wiring.
what do you have as far as turbo stuff?

exhaust, you can have my dp, turbo if you want it, and a few other things. :)

oh, hell yeah. an exhaust would be perfect. I want to get the car driving before I start building a TBE. Ive got a bunch of 3" mandrel bends. :twisted:
I went and looked at some ej20g's the other day, they were pretty rough and had no wiring but did have an ecu. I'm probably going to attempt to use my stock harness with the appropriate fixes. unfortunately the ej20g's were from AT cars so they are a little down on power compared to the manual ones, and the AWIC's arent included.
what do you have planned for an exhaust laurel?

i have a wrx midpipe and STi axleback. my perrin dp goes in when i do the turbo and awic.

I forgot to mention that my stock midpipe is cut, so the part that bolts onto the dp is missing. sorry
