I'm new to this site, but i've been looking around. And i'm interested if it is possible to fit a Subaru SVX 3.3l h6 engine, into a 93 Legacy Wagon with a 5 spd tranny. Cause this is something i want to try.
Has anyone tried this before? if so, how did it come out? doe's the eg33 even fit into the engine compartment of the legacy?

I have heard that the EG33 will fit...but it is an extremely tight fit...and a bunch of crazy stuff has to be done with radiator and whatnot...
The 5 speed will bolt up though

Can't rememeber who exactly it was, but I do believe there is a 94 FWD 5MT with an EG33 in it. Don't know any details though.

I remember I saw it on nasoic.
Here is one car for sale with the swap.
Let me find the other link with the details.

I think it was an impreza that was made to be a rockcrawler so they gave it the g33.

This weekend I saw an Impreza coupe that had an EG33 in it. The guy had removed the stock rad and AC condensor, cut away some metal, and put in a radiator from a 300ZX (I think).

that woulda been the guy from kirkland, he was in the thread linked above. Did anyone else read insofar as to see that the OP's car caught fire?

Sounds like the same car, but he said it was the car's first outing.

Damn, that's sad. Seems like it went up because of a leaking fuel injector, my Legacy did this twice, but I caught it in time both times.
