Question What year motor is this/what to do with $4,000 to get this too work?

I just bought a Jspec ej20 for 800 bucks it is water and air intercooled
does anyone have any idea what the hell it is.
It has individual coil packs if that helps

I just wanna know what motor this is to see if it is worth anything to build
what year?
what model?
ect

get a replacement wrx motor and drop it in. the legacy ej20g is junk in comparison, sell it back on ebay. no point in swapping it in the weird way, just do the prper thing

I agree. Maybe I would not call it junk, but its just not worth it.
