i doubt it will fit in there between the strut towers..
surely a tape measure will sort out whether it will fit or not........

highly unlikley conversion with extensive mods and 4wd mode, a sr20 would be a much better 2L engine over wrx ones.

Ca or Sr conversion is very very $$$$$$ as im finding out :P
Thats with out taking into account the 4x4 side of it. Good luck tho
What state is the motor in at the moment?

there is a bloke on datnet doing a conversion into a 1600, its a tight squeeze even in that! if you did get it to fit you would probvably have to use a different box for rwd only.. tape measure is your friend!

Nope - no way, no how.

They're even a prick to put in a brumby which came with a flat four from the factory.
