Called up Innovate/Subtech/Highbrook for rebuild quotes, looks like im looking at ~$3500 if all goes well, and more like 4k if the rings or cam belt etc are going to be done. Push in/drive out kind of thing. So need ot decide exactly what I want done, and who to do it, and hopefully get it done in a month or so.

Is that with your original Version 6 EJ207, open deck block?

Yeah, does that not sound right?

It\'s the perfect time to switch to a Version 7 EJ207 semi closed deck block.

PM fbssub1 and see if he has anything coming up?

http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/subaru/engines/auction-722133084.htm

PM Marc and see what he\'s got, even one needing a rebuild?

Wingers had some maybe early last year for $1500 each, one resold recently on here for the same price.

Or if you want to go EJ257, member EJ20T has one for sale that\'s ready for a rebuild.

Or you can have rods inserted beside your bores to semi close your original block (quoted $200-$250), or there are other options for closing blocks (JB weld etc).

Oh right, will keep my eye open then,. I am somewhat budget constrained, I have 4k to play with, 5k at the absolute max to have an engine running and installed, anything more and its not going to be worth fixing up as the car isn\'t worth enough money even rebuilt. Im also not planning on keeping it for that long either, maybe flick it off end of year unless my financials change, it costs too much to track if I break anything, and its a bit pointless having as a weekend car, id rather swap it for something a bit more comfortable. Ive still got to fix/replace the panels I crashed and possible chassis damage... So this is a lot of money to spend on a car worth maybe 10k?

I do but they are a big array of crap unlike the older ones. (they run thru the injector sheilding plates -which i have too but no1 bothers fitting them on modded stuff as they just get in the way)

Id just use push lock hose and a T fitting. (can be done neatly and come with most turbosmart Bolt on BOV kits as they dont clear the breather hardpipe) You running V7 type heads or v5/6 type heads?

Ticked over 90,000 time to sell it

[Guitar_Guy]

90,000 is that all? (Not actually my car but impressive none the less).

[Roo]

Woah!

Highest i\'ve seen (other than commercial trucks that have done over a million km\'s) was a landcruiser that was coming up to the 700 mark
