Hi guys new to this forum n wanted some feed back n opinions. I just recently bought a 1998 impreza 2.5 rs (gm6 i think) 2 door manuel from the orginal owner. The car is clean but as we all know theres always a lil work that needs to be done. The engine is loosing oil gotta change the cam seals, timing belt, the usual rust on the quater panels n the rear shocks but thats abt it.
I wanted to take the $$ to fix the engine n put it towards a swap with a jdm turbo engine only, id like to keep the rest stock (tranny n diff)
Which engine would u suggest for the swap?? Not looking for crazy hp just smthg a lil more agressive n that wont blow out the original drive train. I dont want to spend all that $$ on a complete sti swap since it will be a dd.
Any advise or opinion would b a great help since im new with the subbies. Im doing research myself but its always gd to bear from thr owners themself.
Thanks joey
