Yup, power isnt everything and it was the best option for me in the situation I was in. If not, LS swap is the way to go imo.

I've thought about doing this. I have a 20K FA20 that people have asked if I would sell it for $1800. I suppose these are a popular swap for Foresters or wrecked FR-S/BRZ's but I can find 3SGE Beams Swaps online for $900-$1100 complete with Motor, 6 SPD Trans, Harness + ECU, and MAF. Just by selling your FA you can basically fund the next swap. This got me thinking on seriously doing this next season....

I actually think the boxer engine is one of the worst things about the ZN6. I get the marketing hype "low CoG" and whatnot... but I'd much rather have an 8k revving, NA inline 4.
More space, more front clearance for steering angle (for us drift guys), easier to work with, etc etc.

There are definitely better ones out there. Even if it was the STI's EJ207 from Jland... I'd still prefer an inline 4 honestly.
