<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=black size=2>Hey, my friend has told me that i can replace my 4G15 with a JDM Eclipse GSTengine...is this possible?</FONT></P>

 

Yep...just put a USDM 4g63 in it....basicly the same thing as JDM 4g63....notmuch different between the 2 motors other than the intake mani....correct me if im wrong

 

The intake manifold of the cyclone is a little but wider the the domestic 4g63. Other than that, they are the same. You will also need a JDM ECU to work with the cyclone engine.

 

well it can be done ....but be ready for a trans and axles that little 2.0 motor is far from a turbo eclipse i would'nt do it but i'm a dealership tech and we stay away from swaps like that .</P>


every time you turn around you find something wrong, if your a seasoned mechanic you'll do just fine but if it's all new to you just get the eclipse</P>


my 2 cents</P>

Hi I'm trying to do a engine swap on my mirage I have the 1.8 l in now and I want the 4g63 engine with the AWD trans. I was told evo 4 5 and 6 were the best to go with. My issue at the moment is trying to locate the rear drivetrain off a evo 5. This way I can have the mirage AWD instead of FWD

Let me know your input on any warnings or snags i may run into and any good advise you can give me for this job. Thank you
