Hey guys I have a 2ltr Legacy GTB and the engine seized up today, don't really know for sure what it is but the engine just cut out and won't start up again, sounded like a lot of knocking before it cut out. Either way it looks like I will need and engine/turbo replacement or find someone who can recondition my engine/turbo back to running condition.
Would anyone be able to recommend someone who could recondition my engine/turbo?
I currently have a quote of $2300 for an engine/turbo replacement + $500 fitting, looking at calling up Strong for Subaru and a few other wreckers on Monday to get more quotes, the alternative is to import an engine/turbo from Japan. Also does anyone know if I can fit a better turbo onto the engine? And if so, what model? What other mods would I need to do? As the factory turbo is rubbish.
Thanks for your help in advance.
