hi dev,shark maybe able to help you a bit more as im sure he had one these,you may be able to download a manual if you are going to d.i.y just be very wary if you search the net for spares theres a few places that will rip you off we had problems when sourcing an engine for an imported imprezza. toyota garage should be able to do it but be prepared for a rather large bill!! i will see if i can find out anymore and get back to you
