  2. 2.5 Liter/Litre Factory Motor
    My engine is on its last legs and I originally wanted to build the car but now I think I just want to plop another engine in and drive it for a bit and get rid of it.

    Looking to buy a 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX Hatchback. The owner has told me the engine was rebuilt and the process on how it was broken in. I have attached all the documents relating to the repairs and processes to get it running back to normal. The owner said that all of the necessary actions...
