So I recently got back my first car 1997 2 door Impreza that I did a RHD STI swap using a 1999 jdm car I’m super excited to have her back after all these years but she is in less than stellar shape. Body needs some work no big deal, but it has a nasty knock. Sounds like a rod. Any one have some recommendations on best place to get internals? I know it’s spendy and getting a complete long block or even another jdm engine are on the table, but I want to price out my options and if the block or heads are salvageable more hp wouldn’t hurt my feelings.
Thanks!
