Greetings,
I threw a rod in my '03 Forester, so I decided it was time for an upgrade. I found an '06 EJ255 with low miles that I purchased and I have ready to swap in.
I still need the proper ECU and to swap out the wires - in progress.
Before I undertake this task, I need to clarify whether or not I will need to swap out the pedals. I'm thinking that the '06 WRX was drive-by-wire, and determines how far to open the throttle body by the ECU based on the position of the pedal.
Is this correct? Has anyone on here swapped an EJ255 into the prior generation forester?
I'm taking lots of pictures and plan on fully documenting this swap. Any assistance/advice would be greatly appreciated.
