GeneralDisorder Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 No. 2006 is the farthest back you can go. Subaru sells reman short blocks with 3 year / 36k warranty for about $2100. Best deal going hands down. GD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Could use a 04-06 2.5 SOHC block/crank and install the 06-09 Pistons and heads. Could maybe even use a 99-03 SOHC but PCV is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
