I think he meant a crate motor or something that is mostly assembled. You can buy a block or all the parts, I'm 99.99% sure.

Subaru sells factory long blocks and short blocks its just don't expect to get them fully dressed. I think you'd be better spent to get a built block anyway from the aftermarket like map performance or something

I bought a brand new block from Outfront Motorsports with a closed deck. Didn't even have a serial number stamped on it. I asked my engine builder to just stamp on the same number as my old block.
And you definitely don't want OEM rods if you are going to the effort/expense of opening a case. |

If you really want to drive someone elses car, check out the local tracks, they usually have programs to drive other cars or can direct you to the people locally who do that. That said, a 100% stock 86/FRS/BRZ IS track ready. At least it will be fine for your first track day or so when you're still slow and lack the skill and confidence to really attack. After that, there are some changes you should make as you grow as a driver. After the first event or two are out of the way, you should upgrade brake pads and fluid and adding an oil cooler is also a good idea. After that, add parts as you find weaknesses to compensate for or strengths to build upon. |

Chiming in with my experience.
I have a stock motor. I'm running the Avo Turbo Kit, with flex fuel. As I'm from Canada, Vancouver region, we have crappy "94" Octane gas which is worse than the 92 Octane from Seattle. Some numbers in horsepower (dynojet, at the wheel, Drift-Office) Chevron 94 was around 220-230whp IIRC US Chevron 92 (from what I've seen) can reach around 270-290whp When I run flex-fuel at 12-13PSI of boost, I hit 351WHP. I've been running this for two years now as a daily driver.

Well...

It's a QA issue in all likelihood. You may have a car with rods that can handle 450 plus HP and you may have one that will bend rods na on e85. 320 is not safe on pump, especially 98 Ron or Cali 91. If you were on e85, then you were probably just one of the unlucky ones to get poor rods. Jaden |
