I was talking to Adam (I think that was his name) at i-speed about 9 months ago (they are the guys that helped write the article in the current SCC) and he had a red/gray OBS with an EJ20 swap done. I honestly can't remember if he swapped the tranny or not, but I'm thinking they didn't. He was looking to sell the thing, and he quoted me $14k for the whole car. If I had anywhere close to that much, I would have bought it then and there (I was still driving a '93 Corolla wagon at the time). He also had these beautiful sparco seat in it, which he said he was taking out when he sold the thing

I've also heard they do EJ20 swaps for ~$8k into almost any Subaru (major exception being the Justy because it was the only Subaru with an inline motor). I've also heard that S-Squared is trying to work on doing EJ20 swaps, and trying to get a lower price point, if possible.
