What about an older STi motor (EJ20K or G) into my 95 L?

I choose to put the whole wiring into my 95L no issues, all that came in STI work in the swap including airbags. Just like someone mention lots of trimming to make it fit right. If you change whole drivetrain and dash, tank, abs, dccd... it made more sense to swap the whole wiring.
If you only swap motor merge is the way. |

i think its def possible, its just that some people dont want to go through the hassle of searching for parts like the front, bulkhead, engine harness, ecu..etc. its not like those parts for a specific year are always on sale.
On the other hand, i have an 02 2.5rs and i did a usdm wrx swap. it took some time but i found all the parts to do a direct swap/ plug and play. it was pretty easy. patience lol |

almost as easy as plug n play. thats exactly what i did. V4 STi into 95L sedan. it's really is easy. with the newer style heater controls and HVAC(98+), it's literally plugging everything back in after minor twisting/tweaking of the harness to fit in it's original routing spot. that and a hydr. pedal box is most everything you'll need!

I need help with a swap or harness merger
Quote:
So I did the swap as told to. Car starts right up, BUT it idles sporadically and reclines at 4k. So I was thinking what if I swap the ecu for a 2.0l manual ecu,but not sure if my 2009 engine harness will fit into a 2.0l m/t ecu?? |
