broke my timing covers when removing to get at my heads for my gasket replacement, so trying to find a set and need to know what my options are. Saw about 3 imprezas at the yard last time I was there and heard EJ18 timing covers are the same as NA EJ22's. Thanks for any advice. mainly need both inners and the center outer..

How do the EJ18 timing belt covers look compared to the EJ22?

thats a clean looking motor 777 wish I could find one like that. but I don't know how the EJ18 ones look, just took a peek at them so not much detail is remembered.

Thanks, that one is just freshly rebuilt.

From the pics I found from a quick search on google, they look to be the same.
