i just bought a 1996 eclipse gs-t with a blown motor and no transmission.. i know the generation 2 eclipse gs-t and talon tsi both have the 4G63T engine, but are the motor mounts different with these two cars? can i used an engine from the AWD tsi too without dealing with transmission/motor mount problems? if so, does anyone know a good place online i can find an engine?

 

How about you just buy my car, 1997 GST?.....2k......with a 1st gen 4g63 and trans. Freshly rebuilt engine. All reciepts included, part the rest out that you gont want and maybe come out even. PM me if interested.

 

LOL! Dis Dude!

 

Search Button, its there for a reason.

 

check dsmtrader.com... they have a toooon of motors and trannies and stuff on there... and if you want a new one check out mitsubishigraveyard.com... i got a brand new rebuilt/repainted tranny from there for $900 shipped to my door, so they'll hook you up. Just give them a call or email them or something

 

You can use an engine from a 90-99 eclipse(gst/gsx)/talon(tsi/tsi awd) but you cant use the tranny from an awd. My suggestion is to try and find a 6 bolt block from a 90-93 eclipse since youll be starting from scratch its good to start with the best motor you can get.

 

Make that a 6 bolt from years 90-92.5

 

with a 6-blot would i have to change my motor mounts though?

 

magnus motorsports has a whole write-up on the swap... no you don't need new mounts... it's basically the same motor as the 7 bolt, only it has 6-bolts holding the flywheel, different oil squirters inside the block, and a couple of other different things internally i believe... it's much much less prone to crank walk like the 7-bolt is... here's the write-up on the swap

Go to vfaq.com for swapig a 6 bolt into a 2gen.
