stuartie Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Need a wee bit advice folks, as some of you will be aware the arches and sills are badly needing done on my v1 wrx however i have found a clean v2 wrx with a goosed engine and i'm wondering how hard/easy it would be to transplant my v1 engine and mapped ecu in to the donor Shell, cheers 👍👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 There's not much difference between a v1 and v2 , as they both run a phase 1 set up . So engine loom plugs (bay ) , interior loom plugs (ecu) inlet manifold/fuel rails and auxiliaries are the same .(straight swap) Afaik the only things that might differ would be the speed sensor in the gearbox (if the v2 has a electrical speed sensor) And the power steering pump or lines , I've not checked the dimensions but they can look visually different (square or circular reservoir) , the pump and pipes could be the same though 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartie Posted January 12, 2020 Author Share Posted January 12, 2020 Thanks for the reply bud but i've decided to just run with my v1 and go with the original plan of new arches and sills then a re-spray 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
