I know there's some threads out there on a lot of swaps to the 2002 + WRX's and STIs.
I have been seeing a lot of older engines around where I'm from (JDM ej207s etc...) pulled from late 90s (98-99) STIs.
I'm sure there's info on it but I haven't seen any from relatively recent threads?
What I'm guessing (and need advice on) that this swap will require;
I have;
2000 2.5rs 4door sedan w. a blown ej253 SOHC motor (already pulled).
Hardware;
Motor/turbo/etc...
clutch (if I stick with my 5 spd)
--If I swap the trans, ++ rear diff ++ axles (Hub fitment issues??)
ABS pump(?)
Fuel Pump
Fuel level sensor (?)
Electrical; (the hard part)
ECU
Cluster
Full interior/engine wiring harnesses/ or merge them
It can't be that simple? What else am I missing here. Note that I am not planning on running higher than stock HP at this time.
