Description

Replace your high-mileage or damaged engine with this JDM 2.5L EJ25 SOHC AVLS engine, a direct-fit non-turbo replacement motor for 2010–2013 Subaru Outback 2.5i models. This long block comes complete with the timing belt already installed, offering a hassle-free installation for mechanics and DIY Subaru owners alike.

This engine features Subaru’s AVLS (Active Valve Lift System) and a SOHC (Single Overhead Cam) configuration, offering a balance of fuel efficiency, torque, and simple maintenance. The AVLS system enhances driveability across all RPMs, while the SOHC design improves mechanical simplicity and longevity.

Sourced directly from Japanese domestic market vehicles, this JDM EJ25 engine offers significantly lower mileage and less internal wear than most U.S.-market motors. It’s an ideal long block replacement for the EJ253 found in U.S. Subaru Outbacks from 2010 to 2013.

Installation is straightforward—reuse your original intake manifold, sensors, wiring harness, and exhaust components for seamless integration. This engine is compatible with your factory ECU and emissions systems, making it a smart choice for daily drivers who want OEM reliability at a fraction of the cost of a rebuild.

At J-Spec Auto Sports, every engine is fully compression tested, cleaned, and quality-inspected before shipping. Our team verifies the performance of each unit, and every engine is backed by a 90-day startup warranty for peace of mind.

If you’re looking for a dependable, low-mileage, and cost-effective Subaru engine replacement, this JDM EJ25 SOHC AVLS 2.5L engine with timing belt is your ideal solution.
