Guest Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Big end just went how much does a rebuild typically cost and is there much of a difference between forged and standard? any good spare engines going at reasonable costs? cheers

StewartyBoy Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Scottish Subaru in Paisley will sell you a 2nd hand engine at a good price.
Guest Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 cheers for the replies! thinking of just scrapping now as recently spent big bucks servicing it and getting brembos and pf discs/pads! getting well into 4 figures to sort this one out... - should have kept my evo.... Scottish Subaru in Paisley will sell you a 2nd hand engine at a good price. got any conatct details?
gordi82 Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 sorry to here that but don't scrap it put it to the auctions as a non runner you might be surprised how much its worth.
craigdmcd Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 As much as I hate to do this (I was wanting to get this for myself at a later date), but Wilky has a VERY NICE bottom end for sale (I'm assuming it still is available), and would be ideal - total to buy and have it fitted with new gaskets - less than 2K.
PAUL-KILLIE Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 You might be lucky and only need to replace the shells and a conrod or two. Although, I would recommend a new crank rather than a regrind, up to you though. I know a guy in Kilmarnock who does impreza rebuilds from home in his spare time, He comes pretty highly regarded and isn't hard to pay as its more of a hobby to him. Give me a shout if you want contact details. You might have seen his yellow four door or white 2 door impreza with carbon front end at Knockhill. I reckon you could be back on the road for less than £1500 Big end just went how much does a rebuild typically cost and is there much of a difference between forged and standard? any good spare engines going at reasonable costs? cheers
