Something a bit different, previously had a changed a engine over for this customer on their 2000 GT forester, they were that impressed and happy with the workmanship they asked me if i could do the swap on their 2.8 Colorado.
I had previously removed and installed this engine a couple of weeks back, today was about wiring and plumbing everything up.
Safe to say I don’t want to work on one of these again!!!!!

Wrx turbo has left the chat. This car was dumping excessive amounts of oil down the exhaust system.
Cheap china turbo, fun for a short time.

Wrx exhaust system full of oil due to a failed turbo. Looking at the brand I think it’s a cheap china make.

Back to the STI build after a family holiday. All built back up and ready for the run in steady km’s. This is a car I do not want to see again in a hurry unless it is for standard maintenance. Some nice upgraded parts put in there while it was apart and replaced all the worn hardened PVC hoses.
