Been looking for a while for a subaru engine to put in the black car. Today I went and picked up this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
Its out of a 2003 outback H6 3.0, it got hit in the rear. A subaru shop in Auburn bought the car, because he wanted the wheels. Went up to look at it, turns out I know the guy, used to be a Porsche only shop. He did the work on my stepfathers Boxster when they lived in Auburn, so he gave me a great deal. Got the engine, a 5spd transmission from another outback, the H6 had an auto, the ECU and harness, and anything else I want from the car for $400 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Looks like the black car is getting a 6. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) The motor in my shop And the 914 it's going in. So I'm going back on saturday, he's going to put the car in the shop on a lift and let me go at it. I need to get the ECU and wire harness removed, so he can get rid of the rest of the car.

If anyone is free saturday and would like to come help, Pizza and drinks on me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) you can pm me or call my cell (916) 834-6574. Thanks, Jeff |

Wow, nice score! You'll want to make sure to get the entire engine wiring harness and the stock FI controller, etc. Just follow the harness inside the car and see where it leads so you don't miss anything. In the SVX there was a lot of electronic stuff under the carpeting. If you want to run heat, AC, etc grab all that stuff as well. The heater core and AC stuff should be under/in the dash. Might as well take anything you MIGHT want to use later. Think of it that way. If he's going to scrap the car take the automatic trans controller box....it's worth $.
