Did you win the ebay bid?
Curious as to what it went for in the end, looked like it would go cheaply.

I think the caranks are the same, and the block looked like a semi closed deck so i think the blocks are the same too.
I'm sure the pistons are the strange ones in the WRX (ie, not forged.)

I was very tempted to bid myself as i only want the block and crank.
