yes! do it. i recently swapped my 95 wagon with an EJ20G and it was fairly easy save for the wiring. had to cut the harness at teh ecu and splice the EJ20 ecu connectors in, as well as make an adapter wiring cable from the ej20 Engine connectors to the old Engine connectors. i also swapped wrx brakes front and rear. still only weighs 2750 lbs. the stock outback tranny with cable clutch is holding up well so far
