Been thinking the Subaru WRX engines would be a perfect conversion powerplant. I did some research (mostly after the Nissan 6 conversion) and can put together a complete package for just under $4,000.
Cost includes a JDM 230hp engine, pre-programed ECU and harness, Kennedy adaptor, radiator w/ fans & shrouding, K&N, and engine mount. Muffler, cat and water guage not included. The ECU can be tuned upto 300hp safely for non-smog cars. Weight would be about 50 lbs more than stock. You can keep some trunk space. Uses stock drivetrain. Should require no sheet metal cutting but I haven't built one yet. I can say 220hp makes for a FUN 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) Interested??

QUOTE(Chris914n6 @ Mar 27 2003, 01:08 PM) Interested?? Building one. Except I'm using the twin turbo version of the WRX motor they put in their Liberty sedan. I have the engine, programmable controller, and Kennedy adapter kit. $4k is a decent estimate to get the engine in the car but you would be wise to add another $2k for a 5-lug conversion and wheels. That's just my opinion until I get the car actually driving. |
