EJ engine is also very, very low. Chance of fitting a JZ into a spot made for an EJ is very very slim.

If you can come up with internet evidence of JZ swapped Subarus then maybe, just maybe, there would be a very expensive possibility for this car.
Lol I guess I'm just gonna keep my mouth shut, it was just a what if

It's not 2JZ... but I remember this kid try to put LS1 into his Impreza











In the end, he couldn't finish it (due to kid & the house).

2JZ is even longer than that. In that Subaru he was going RWD right? I think that's the only way the motor would fit far enough back.

Goddamn, the things I would do with an unlimited budget...

Yeah, I know that 2JZ is longer. I just remember when you said 2JZ & Impreza, LS1 Impreza came to mind.

I'm not quite sure on RWD or not. I wasn't fully following on his project... but I'm guess so.

kid, wife, & life get you in the way to built your unlimited money project

LSs are pretty compact engines

The S2000 has a very long hood. The 2JZ still sits ON the front axel, not much over. n the case of the 86, impossible, it would totally F things up.

Speaking of JZ series fitting where they are not supposed to,




Like said before anythings possible with an unlimited budget.

Also, Toyota's lineup needs a small affordable RWD hatch/car badly( beside FT-86).
