BRZ Rebuild (Mulekr1)
Recently I bought a salvage 2015 Subaru BRZ limited. Its manual, has 2563 miles and is beautiful. Im really excited, the main focus right now is to fix it and pass the salvage inspection. Learn manual on it whilst I wait for my rebuilt title, and then take the engine and trans out and go VVTI TH400 2JZGTE. These are a couple images of the car, the car is pretty bad. It hasnt come yet its coming this Sunday so i'll update when I get it and I clean it up a bit too. Most worrying thing about it is if I end up like B for Build and can't figure out why it isnt starting, my fuse box looks busted as well but the thing is its not gonna be a track car, I have to pass the salvage inspection. So theres no jumping to do a swap.
Anyway enjoy! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() Car came, started right up. Just need a box for the fuse box as it was knocked up and I took it out. (Funny part is the car was dropped in the middle of a road at the wrong address and we had to drive it home with a bent control arm and tireless rim.) Bent the rim, belt came off of the engine, and brakes line was cut lol Damage was worse and better in some ways. Stripped the broken support pieces ![]() ![]() lol, forgot to mention the car isnt black its DGM. |

I'll be your first reply
..nice car! When planing on a engine swap,a salvage car is defiantly the way to go in my opinion,I'm in the exact same position as you,I bought a 13 frs from the salvage yard I work at with the intentions of doing a ls1 swap,got the car for 4200 and payed 2800 for all the parts and going to cost 1800 for paint/body work..perfectly good frs for 8800$(With a clean title lucky enough)..drive it for a year stock while gathering parts for the swap..if you need any small parts that are hard to find send me a pm and I will try to help you out(we have 5 frs/BRZ parts cars in our yard at the moment) but where I live in newfoundland Canada shipping may be abit of issue if the parts are bigger/heavy..anyways best of luck with the rebuild/engine swap
