818 Donor cheat sheet

I did not use a donor primarily because I imported my motor from japan. For some this might be a cheaper option if your local junk yard has what you need. Plus less work for you! I have made a cheat sheet so you can cross reference if a part is compatible or not.

Note: This is for a 2002-2003 WRX based 818, however a good amount of parts will swap between models read the comments for more. 818 full disassembly and donor list can be found here. Some Subaru parts are interchangeable with the forester and legacy. If you want to look up compatibility with other models use parts.subaru.com. You can look up part numbers by car type, and see the comparability section to see what models all use the same part#.

*Note means will work with 93-07 Impreza all others are not confirmed to go past 2002.
