where can i get a 2.3 from of course cost is a issue i hear you can get them from the states

 

axis racing do a 2.35 seems quite reasonable in cost to with current exchange rates don't know what the shipping will be like though

thanks mike

 

why dont you go for a 2.5 for about £1500 for the short block then bolt on all your bits.

any one who deals with scoobs will be able to get you one

 

Having read your other thread re 2.5's.. i'd say get another 2.5 and bolt that in, remapped again....

 

sorry i dont get that apperantly the 2.35 has forged pistons strengthened rods closed deck etc.. a far better and most importantly stronger engine something that i obviously need

 

Stage 4 Components:
- 2.2 Liter Fully Closed Deck Shortblock
- Piston Squirters
- Stock Steel Sleeve Liners
- Modified Axis Racing Forged Crankshaft
- Balanced & Polished to 10,000 RPMS
- Pauter 4340 Chrome-Moly Forged Rods
- Axis Racing/ CP forged pistons (8.5:1 or 9:1)
- 8500 RPM Rev Limit

Total Cost: $ 3,950.00 = £2,200.00 aprox + shipping costs seems quite good value plus the higher rev limit and stronger parts

 

Only bad thing about this is I can't get the 2.2 blocks anymore. There were only 16 left and Subaru has decided to not offer them any longer since it's been past 10 years for the production date end.

I do also build a 2.5ltr using the same internals, but into a new ej257 case. It's the same price. I have several customers hitting low 11s with these swapped into wrx's and they are just getting started. There are also more than a few who are pushing over 500 wheel hp, not crank hp, and the stock engine is living up to it.
