Subaru WRX Engine Replacement

In this case study we're going to walk you through how we did an engine replacement for a Subaru WRX 2L turbo. You'll find photos and videos below and some more on our Facebook page.

 

Day 1

Watch the video below to see and hear what the engine was like before we started. It has a problem with the big end bearings, which are in the bottom of the engine

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 2

We were very busy in the workshop on day two and didn't get as much done as we would've liked. Here's a quick video showing you the difference between a working turbo (it spins) and one that doesn't work (it doesn't spin).

 

 

 

 

 

Day 3

The engine is put back in the car and everything is reconnected again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finished

Day 3 brought us to the end of the engine replacement. Have a listen to the engine in this video and compare it to the one above, you'll notice the difference.

 

 

 

 

We want to say a big thankyou to Daniel (the owner of the car) for letting us share these photos and videos with you.
