other than 3.3L

So has anyone had any luck with swapping out the 3.3 for somthing totaly different? I hear about people doing mods all the time but never heard of anyone putting in a completely different engine.

Re: other than 3.3L

eg33 not sure what that is but I could only imagine that a 3.3L twin turbo would be pretty sick and uses alot of fuel lol

Yeah. I don't believe it stands for anything. I think it's just the engine designation.

Re: other than 3.3L

Every time I saw someone type EG33 on here I always asumed it was the svx 3.3 but when darkness said it was used in a sti i was thinking maybe it meant a modified 3.3 or somthin.

Re: other than 3.3L

no,, these are just the way the have the engines listed...
i think on the wrx/sti engine codes, they might partially refer to the internals and such..

Re: other than 3.3L

Someone had a posted link to an RB26 swapped SVX. The only downside was the molding of the R32 front end onto the car. It ruined it, but it was badass otherwise.
