can anyone tell me if a 1996 impreza RX (EJ20) would be SOHC or DOHC?
i found a written off one but the bloke couldnt tell me if it was SOHC or DOHC and its pretty far away so i dont wanna go out for no reason

If it doesnt have Turbo then it'll be likely SOHC. I could be wrong.

I'm 99% sure it'll be SOHC.
Then again I was 99% sure those prawns were ok...

well muddy....... when your right 99% of the time....
your wrong 1% of the time
the bloke said it was quad cam although i dont think he knew that well so it still might be worth the drive

the last NA EJ I looked at was quad cam. ( this was in a forester) plugs were up top though instead of middle.

I would. if all you want to do is replace a tired engine then to me it would be worth it.

It'd be worth it just to prove me wrong.

I'll put 50c on it being SOHC too.
