If there were not people in this world that ask how to swap a 2jz into a ford probe on a budget of $861.23 so they would have the ultimate auto cross car. :slap:

Maybe not a myth but a Japanese only motor like the RB so there would be less 2jz swap threads for every car ever made... notice barely anyone wants a 1jz? hell most people dont know a 1jz even exists.

god why does toyota have to make such amazing motors.

True... a lot of ppl over look at 1jz. Yeah it's limited to what it can be done, but if you just want some good kicks with lil bit light weight, 1jz is way to go. iirc even Powerhouse Amuse made 1jz kit for Supra before.

So chances are this could be similar to the motor in the FT86????

This is new phototype flat 4 for the next Gen of Subaru

And what, may I ask, makes you say that? It looks like a typical Subaru exhaust.

Actually it's not. If you look carefully, it's UEL header, while '90 to current NA impreza are EL header... but I'm pretty sure RWD_only wasn't talking bout that.

Actually, I think the pre-08 NA Imprezas were UEL, not 100% sure, but close...

Tougerenner 03-31-2010 10:09 PM

I would say that if the ft86 has a boxer and depending if they change how the motor actually mounts in the ft86 the 3.3 H6 EG block from the subaru SVX or the new 3.6 H6 EZ block from the Tribeca would probably be the easiest in terms of the motor just dropping in, wiring is a whole other issue.

I have seen some videos of H6 swapped GC impreza, this is on the more extreme end of the scale. But ohhh..... that 911-esk noise it makes :drool:

^ no "if" about it. The FT-86 will have a boxer.

Tougerenner 03-31-2010 11:13 PM

Only reason I say "if" is because is for that faint chance when the production model is announced there is a change.

Trust me, I want the boxer.

Nope, I own '00 RS and I know for sure it was EL header.

Note: Yes, it's been coated with high temp spray paint. Why Bright Orange? Cuz local store only had Orange or Blue.

Anyways, you get my point.

@ tougerenner
I so want to put H6 engine into my gc8. I so love the exhaust note they make... but I ask local swap shop and they said it's bout same amount of $$$$ to do WRX engine swap... but some day, H6 with STI's 6sp tranny gonna be install into my Impreza.

H6 with 6spd in a GC would be sweet. You would basically be getting the power of a STi with no lag what what so ever all in a lighter package to boot. Yea, I hear what your saying about the $$$$ I guess it really has to do with what your end goals are for your car.

I dont know if you are on http://www.rs25.com/ but are is quite a few people over there H6 swapped.

Here is the thread containing the run down on that EFI logics track car from the videos. I believe EFI Logics can do the swap for street applications but they are on the east coast.
http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=1652549

But look at these beautiful headers that EFI Logics track car has.

yup, I've been remember of RS25 for quite long time. I have almost same alias (ichitaka_is).

I remember first time EFI show their H6 Impreza. That's one of the reason why I wanted to do the H6 swap. IIRC EFI only have WRX or RS tranny.

I think, I have almost all the pics of all the H6 swap imprezas on RS25.

mrtodd 05-15-2010 01:22 AM

Tougerenner, that is a BEAUTIFUL header. I like.

The more I read on this forum, the more I like the Subaru crowd. Good bunch of dudes. :)

Good luck getting a 20b in that car, I wanna put one in my fc and I still would have to do a lot of remounting. And a four rotor is rediculus

I like this compact little equal length exhaust. It has some funny snail-like thingy on it though...

3UR-FBE with TRD supercharger? :)

70NYD 06-19-2010 02:27 AM

as to all this talk with ppl swapping the engine out, or putting a ej25 or 22(allthought that would be very good :D) i think a great deal of ppl will be suprised how much grunt you can get out of a disi engine (think diesel) especially if its turboed. all i can think of doing for this car is putting stronger internals in it (unles they are already forged) and tuning the ecu for higher boost cus with disi u wont get knock easily, or at all depending on how it is controlled

aloysiuscarl 07-01-2010 05:05 AM

I am looking into swaping a 2zz and 6speed trans from a 2006 xrs and Im wondering if I'll drop something powerful into my rolling storage shed '94 Hyundai Scoupe Turbo. At 900kg, the car's handling is wicked fun, and with some power and coilovers, would make a great track car.

RE:engine swap thread
 
Hi,
The three things you want to consider doing while the engine is out is replacing the water pump and thermostat housing with the aluminum parts. The plastic have been known to fail. Also the pre-10/95 S50s all had a possibility of valve spring retainer failure due to the way the retianers are mfgt. Also check the tightness of the oil pump bolts including the gear.

Care to say what engine you're talking about?

ichitaka05 08-29-2010 02:45 PM

^ my bet is on E36 M3. isn't one of the code was S50 wasn't it? Also yr S50 was made in '95

RWD_only 09-05-2010 06:01 PM

S50s were in the 95 M3 only. 3.0l vs 3.2l S52

BoostJunkie 09-09-2010 11:56 AM

What about a black top SR20DET?

Midship Runabout 09-09-2010 11:58 AM

^why?

BoostJunkie 09-09-2010 12:07 PM

Why not, it has a great deal of aftermarket backing it up, it's a pretty good engine as well, saying this if they don't make a turbo version boxer engine, just an option I was throwing out there

That and I got one in my garage just sitting there waiting....

What you need to do with that is go find a S12 Nissan and put it in there.

I was just curious cause both subaru and toyota have motors that are equally as good or better than the SR.

And I still dont see any other motor besides a flat one swapping in easily.
