hello im new to this site, reffered by gsxracer80, and so far i like it. I just bought a 1994 eclipse, 1.8l slow as it can get, and i want to put in a 4g63 engine, not soon, prolly over the winter months. i was wondering is it possible: how mch of a pain it would be, where can i find a decent price for it, what mods i wouldnt need, the whole nine yards basically. this is my first eclipse, and i would appreciate the help, and thanks  Atheon (Jarod)

I was gonna try to do it, and they are right, your better to sell it and buy one thats already equipped with the 4g63 in it. You would need a new ECU for that motor, wiring harness, misc sensors and its just a pain to have to route all the hoses and wires. Unless you have time, money and a lot of patience, i would just buy another car with the 2.0 already installed. And truthfully i had a 94 eclipse with a 2.0 non turbo and gas mileage is basically the same between the two, and there really wasnt a huge performance difference, but the 2.0 does have alot more possibilities.
If you decide to do it, the trannys are the same, axles, radiator and everything, unless you get a turbo, then i believe the trannys are different. -------------------- 2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS- Pretty daily driver
