what is interchangeable

[Turbo_Legacy]

I am definatly a noob but what is interchangeable from the impreza to the ( BE ) like anything i am just doing research on this before i start my build up Thanks
oh and if this has been covered before i am sorry!!!!!!

[sheepdog]

I'm retarded

[Turbo_Legacy]

evertything like what??? what fits that is not in the engine...ex.like will the turbos kits work from the impreza and anything aftermarket like CAI, Tranny's, Anything

[Wiscon_Mark]

which impreza?

There isn't a whole lot that I can think of...

[sheepdog]

I meant most suspension stuff, exhaust from the downpipe back, wheels, brakes, control arms, and seats. I guess I assumed you had a turbo 1st gen by your name, I didnt read BE. I'll have to look up which year and model that is :lol:

EDIT: ahh. 00-04 sedan. Nope, nothing switches over except exhaust I think. Check out the swaps and conversions forum, Gator GT and I have talked about engine/trans/interior/etc swaps in depth several times. That would be your only option really to gain power significantly.

[Wiscon_Mark]

Yeah, the BE...not much for suspension or exhaust there. The Axleback is totally different and the midpipe length is different. BEs have multilink in the rears, so that's out. You might be able to use Impreza struts though.

[Turbo_Legacy]

so nothing like turbo wise or anything engine then eh!!!! That kinda sux but ok new question what kind of turbo upgrades and anything for the engine do they make ex... Intake, Exhaust systems, Turbo's kits ETC........

If you are looking to go turbo on your BE, I would suggest doing a WRX or STi swap. It will be more money, but you will not be limited any where near as much in the amount of boost you can run. Plus there are a ton of limitations the NA 2.5 presents when running boost.

Just my $0.02

[sheepdog]

yep. Don't waste your money turbocharging that engine, the most you'll ever be able to run is 6 or 7 psi. Take that money, save it, and do an engine swap down the line. As I said, check one of the multiple motor swap threads, and feel free to PM or IM me with any questions you have!

I could probably find you a set of D2 coilovers for the BE, iirc theyre around 1300 bucks. Next to the Teins, theyre some of my favorites, but Tein doesnt make anything for the BE. Also, D2 doesn't make too many sets of them, so tracking one down might take some time.

[Turbo_Legacy]

so what about the BE that comes turbo could i get one of those then go from there or is it the same idea

[sheepdog]

Ohhhhhhh your from Canada!!! w00t! You can buy turbo BEs!

I've been screwing this thread up royally. Yes, if you have a single turbo BE (EJ20t) most WRX (any year) stuff will work motor wise. You also have more options suspension wise, however I don't know what those are because I'm not up to date on all the JDM spec stuff.

suspension will only fit with some modification, exhaust will only fit to the cat, all 5 lug subaru wheels swap, stock brakes are different and need modification/ entire brake swap to fit, seats are interchageable. not sure about control arms.

all EJ22 components fit all 2.2 engines, same with 2.5, 2.0, 2.0t, 2.0tt, 1.8, 3.0, 3.3, 2.7.......

Thanks guyz I thought that they would but Thought I would ask before I buy a bunch of stuff
