the 95 impreza auto trans has a 4.11 final drive ratio it will fit in 95 - 98 legacys that have a 2.2L engine. it will not fit in any 2.5L car.

 

on the 03, the 00 - 04 2.5L engines should work, as well as the 99-00 2.2L engines. but some whaer in there they changed the cam sprockets, so at the least, compare the ''new'' engine cam sprocket to the ''old'' engine cam sprocket, and if there is a difference, use the ''old'' cam sprocket on the new engine.

May I ask y u have to change cam sprokets?
there are two "style" cam sprockets that have different trigger marks on the back of them for the cam sensors to work off of. if you install an engine with different "trigger marks" so to speak, then the ECU isn't correctly interpretting the results. swapping cams from the original engine onto the new engine will give the ECU the correct signal.

 

 

your location says "northern cambria"...not sure what that means but if it's international then information may vary.

No PA... Does that go for both the 2.2 and 2.5..? There is a 2.2 engine from a 99 impreza mt w150,000 forsale by me cheap.. Was going to pick it up... Sure I ll find something someone smoked a motor in to put it in.. What will that motor all swap in to.. Did alot of the swap s for the 97 to 99 obw but coming into these newer ones I'm not real sure on..
