Did you run into any hassles putting the newer motor into your car?
Facebook Marketplace.

Not really, the 2015 harness plugs right in but the jackholes I bought the engine from cut the harness. I bought a conversion harness for the 2013 engine to use 2015 coilpacks from Subaru (they have a harness for 2013 cars and 2014 cars). That required me to move over two sensors from the bad 2013 engine to the 2015 engine.. IIRC it was water temp and oil temp but it's pretty obvious which need to be swapped when you have it in front of you.

We've done the reverse swap as well (2013 engine into a 2015) and just plugged it in and went.
