EJ205 vs EJ255: what's the difference?

The EJ205 is the 2.0L JDM WRX engine; the EJ255 is the 2.5L USDM WRX engine. They share the same basic architecture but differ in bore and stroke. The EJ205 is a JDM-market engine that was never sold in the U.S. as a factory fitment — sourcing one requires importing from Japan. See our complete EJ engine family guide for the full breakdown.
