I have a guy that is selling a 96 Legacy L. It has a bad diff and bad tires, so he is selling it cheap or it goes for scrap. Would this be a consideration for an engine swap? My research tells me the engine is an EJ25D, which makes around 150 hp, does that sound right?

In Tx. we have to have the title to take a complete car to the scrapper. It has to be in real small parts otherwise. Get the title. If theres no title it's going to be a lot more work to scrap but that should make it cheaper to buy. I think if it has less than 100k on it there is some value to the parts. If it's over 150k it's your call.
The 96 jdm tranny I have seems to have the same rear mount as a 05 legacy tranny I have so it should be at least a good mockup. |
