heya
well i bought a cheap BD5 RSB with a screwed engine
not sure what is actually wrong with it
maybe Big end bearing
how do i know for sure without pulling it out?
it starts and runs is loudticking like i really loud deisel noise
and when u rev it the sound goes quiet while reving maybe to 4 and just as loud as when i started it at idle again
anyways i have 2 options
my friend has a b4 engine i think its ej206 is this the same spec as my ej20r
i know that the ej206 is 260ish hp and the ej20r is 280hp
what is different from the 2 engines and will the ej206 fit and plug and play into my BD5 rsb
which engine is better? is the ej206 the new design same as the newer wrxs v7+ they never seem to run bearings
what are the specs on the 2 engine?
pistons are they both standard forged?
rods same as above?
heads the ej20r has solid lifter what about the ej206
my 3 options are
1 get my friends ej206 from his b4 $800
2 pull down and rebuild my ej20R $???
3 put my ez30r engine in and pay around $4000NZD to get ecu fit and tune
1997 BD5 JDM RSB EJ20R
