engine swap....... uh-oh
yo i was smokin a blunt tonite and i thought of a nice project....... i wanna take a 3000gt VR4 engine and drop it into an eclipse gsx..... anyone know any prices or what id have to change.... cuz im thinkin the driveshaft and tranny can stay the same seeing both are awd........ and also i thought of a new tail light idea.... i havent seen it yet but im sure its out there..... i wanna take black vinyl (cuz my cars black) and lay it over the middle piece of the tail light and cut out "DSM" in the vinyl.......

if the vr4 engine will fit, however you have to change the tranny cause the vr4 is a v6 tt and the rear driveshaft would be shorter....... ive thought about this also but im not sure it would be worth the money with all the modifications you would have to make, just gettin the engine in that engine compartment would be a pain in the ***, much less every other mod youd have to make.......... short list is: new engine management sys. , new tranny, drivetrain, axles, etc., etc., etc......... you get the idea.............

right now engine wise its just a stock gsx with a borla exhaust...... but i got the kaminari wide body on it and many other mods to the body like a custom cutout to cover the middle piece of the tail light and i had DSM cut out of it........but i want power to back up my looks
