Hey community
First post, praying it's in the right section, got confused
Now, I am completely clueless when it comes to cars, defiantly out of my comfit zone when it comes to problems.. ( I only figured out what a turbo ACTUALLY does yesterday )
I picked up a 96 WRX GC8 sedan for around 3k, it has it's fair share of problems, but that's why i got it.. a learning experience!
her heart isn't to healthy and is in need of a rebuild (It's a EJ20 that's all i know) It has been completely thrashed with 240,xxx on the clock (found a video AFTER i bought it of it being limited bashed all the way down a street
) got quoted 3k minimum for a rebuild at a local place
NOW here's the question, he mentioned it could be a good idea to pick up another engine and get that rebuilt and put in, If i was up to it
Would it be worth it? should i stop at getting the same engine with less Kms and just add bolt ons or go for some sort of conversion?
I have around 6 months at a minimum to get the car running and back on the road as a daily ( depends how lazy i am and or income is nice to me )
So yeah If someone could help me out a little that would be amazing
Cheers!
