I picked up a road hard put away wet 99 forester L
its blown 3 engines (lets hope its not cursed) and came without one, or a harness.
I have a EJ20 twin turbo I had gotten in plans to build an 818, but this car will need it first, and teach me about the brand.
It sounds like you guys greatly prefer OEM gaskets, so I'm off to the dealer soon to get oil pan and valve cover gaskets, and crank and cam seals and a rear main seal.
The plan is to put a WRX header, up pipe, and downpipe on the car so the engine will fit my left hand drive car.
I have some newbie questions:
What harness can I use for the engine?
How much power is the stock fuel pump good for?
What ECU will plug in or require the least amount of modification to work with the recommended harness.
The car is a bit of a whore, so I wont hesitate to cut the cross member to clear the up pipe, and im cheap and lazy.
I'll snap some pictures later when I get the new to me tires fitted.
