i want to do a engine swap i have a 94 GS 1.8,sucks, and want to get a 4g63t turbo engine dropped in can i do that or will it not fit..please help i am running out of ideas:cry:
:dsm: :thumb:
 
Should drop right in I think. Might need a new tranny though, I don't think the 1.8 is the same as the 2.0 tranny.
 
hahahahaha VERY FRIGGIN FUNNY i jsut looked at the website and in BIG BOLD LETTERS IT SAYS "will not fit a non turbo car" so in other words i am not getting it which SUCKS BAWLs bt do you think i could put a 2.0 in there
 
what site?? they mean that it won't "install" into a non-turbo. it will definitely fit, but then you run into the problem that everything in your car that is under control of the 1.8 liter will have no clue how to run the 2.0 turbo.

best bet is to find a wrecked turbo near you that you can pilfer parts off of. basically steal everything from the firewall forward as well as the ecu and wiring harness.
