Suggestions, purchased jdm 4g63t+tranny

[clafrance]

I just ordered a JDM 4g63 + tranny and was wondering what suggestions anyone had as to what else I should get at this point. Aside from the engine and transmission I orderded a timing belt from toda racing yesterday, and I'll be getting redline or equivelent gear oil for the transmission. Is it a good idea to replace the timing belt adjuster or anything else? Since I'm spending quite a bit already I may as well get everything I may need...

It's been too long since the dsm has been alive....
The old engine threw a rod, and the transmission has bad synchros in 2nd so that may get sent out for a rebuild when I have some money again.

Thanks!

How much did you pay for that setup, and where did you get it from, if you don't mind me asking. My GST is running strong at 99,650miles on it, but I want to start looking into replacement motors for just-in-case purposes.

I got the engine and transmission for $1799 + shipping from http://www.streetimports.com ... Shipping cost $275 to Massachusetts from Ottowa Canada, timing belt was $200 from TODA Racing.

how many miles on the motor? usually when changing the timing belt, the water pump, oil pump/front case, pulleys and timing belt tensioner go with it

i'd get a dodge colt to put it in. that'd be one hell of a sleeper. i plan on doing something like that when i get some extra cash

The engine and transmission are garunteed under 40,000 miles on them. The company said they range anywhere from 10k to 40k. They told me the belts are good on the motor, but I don't want to take any chances this time. I'm also getting the tensioner from a local dealership hopefully for a decent price.

Luckily I'm going to be able to keep my old engine and transmission either to part out what's good or just hang on to them in case I need it in the future...

Here's a colt with a 4g63 // 10.80 @ 138.56 MPH -1.7 60ft.
