Default RS Automatic to GT Manual

A guy is selling his GT Manual Transmission with 100k miles on it, is it compatable with the 2.4L V4 RS? I have an automatic. He says I just need to come in and take what I need.

No.

And there is no such thing as a V4 in the car world. Its I4.

Yes it would fit. Would it work... no its a piece of **** ebay product.

Dont ever buy **** from ebay. Its cheap for a reason.

Second, no thats not all you would need to install it.

You want to go faster? Sell it and buy a GSX.

Here is what I say to do.... Build up your auto and get a tranny cooler. then slap a turbo on the 4g64. that motor can make 300WHP and run 10-15PSI as it is. If you really got $$$$ and want to be creative think about doing the Evo8 head swap. All a 4g64 is, is pretty much justa Evo motor that is stroked with the exception that your rods and pistons are higher compression. so if you swap a Evo head on and build up a beefy bottom end youll have eesencailly a Evo stroker motor persay.

I really like the look of the 3g eclipse, and am enjoying it. I'd like to stick with this car. Now, in your opinion, how much whp would a turbocharger add to the RS?

I also have a K&N Cold Air Intake, I am told it gives around 10-15hp.
