Can you swap an STI engine and trans. onto a 99 2.5rs Coupe?
Just an idea, i have an STI and i was wondering if i could swap my car's engine and transmission onto a 99 2.5rs coupe. Is this possible to do, i know there have been EJ20 swaps, but not heard of any EJ25 STI swaps.

Speak to the guys at LIC as it's not that hard to do, nothing a WRX intake manifold with throttle body and some wiring can't sort out (there are a couple of other things but nothing major) I'm putting a forestor XT motor into a L at the moment and other than the above I only needed to fab a cam position sensor mount that took me a simple trip to my fabricator.

Wiring = Headache. But everything else seems straight forward. All the mentions about LIC are justified. They were recently used for a tech article at SportCompactCar.
