Is there any 7 style car out there that has one fitted? Im going through a long list of engine choices and im very interested in fitting something jap. Ive seen a few conversations on the impreza engine but not seen one or heard of one being fitted.

i know its a wide lump but how wide? and what gear box can be fitted to it?

will it put all the power to the rear or will it still be split?

I know engines but still learning gearbox's.

I should think a flat four would stick out further than the side panels.

it won't fit.. i looked into putting one in a clio

if you want an easy jap convo go for the 200sx s13. loads off people to help you on that.

BUT why do you wanna go jap.... i only went for big power but if i could go back now i would definatly fit an 1.8 20V turbo in there now someone does the bellhousing to mt75...

jap you say? I would suggest something light with a 12k rev limit.
