I own a 1993 Eclipse 2.0 DOHC 16 Valve. I am swapping engines on my car...im putting a 3000gt twin turbo motor in it...u think it is worth it...or should i just put in a regular 2.0 gt motor in it

Just put a 4g63t motor in it from a 1g eclipse. You are gonna spend alot of time doing the fabrications for that 3000gt motor, have tons of space issues. Your better off building up a 4g63 with a 16g turbo or something and youll be running faster than a stock 3000gt

well thats what i was thinkning but i definitely wanna convert it to a rearwheel drive...i thought that might clear up some space for the 3000gt motor...but ur right...now do u know if they make six speed trannies for it.
