But with the help of members of this forum who had clarified that the 2015/2016 was a "plug-and-play" to the 2013, I just told them that it would work. Just make sure that all wirings, sensors, coilpacks are there. To keep it simple, if your car is manual look for a manual engine so that you will not have to deal with having to change things around say you ended up getting an engine from an automatic car.

Both companies have different designations for the engine (Subaru FA20 and Toyota 4U-GSE) but they are identical in all ways. Both companies use totally different part numbers for all the parts since they use different numbering systems. Other than some body, trim and interior parts everything else is identical except for that part number.
