Still not sure about the lib rack fitting on the brumby cross member but if thats the case why don't you use the wrx rack and pump off your donor car and buy new rack ends?

I don't think he bought a half cut - he just bought an engine.

What gearbox are you using?

What ratio is the said gearbox?

Why can't you use the diff from the car?

If you are going to 5 stud (via the conversion kit) then as long as you have a rear diff in the car you bought then you are ok. another problem you will encounter is the tailshaft. you will either need to get a one piece made or make a 2 piece out of parts that fit. I used a wrx rear part (changed the diff flange) and a liberty manual front (from memory)
