1.8-2.0 Swap

[eclipseman94]

I have a 94 eclipse 1.8 with a lot of miles on it. I have and opportunity to get my hands on a 4g63 2.0 for cheap with low miles on it. I know already that the 4g63 will bolt up to the engine mounts. And, i've heard that the same 5 speed transmission will fit both the 1.8 and the 2.0 N/T (It looks interchangable, is this true?). I know that i would have to get the ECU for the 4g63 but would the wiring harnesses be the interchangable from the 1.8...or would i have to find a harness from a junk yard also? Is there anything else that would be need to accomodate the 2.0? If so, what?

Will the tranny from the 1.8 bolt up to the 2.0?

Yes, it will bolt up. I did the swap myself over a year ago. This is the things I needed when I did the swap.

-Alternator, cuz the one from the 1.8 didnt fit.
-Engine wiring harness and ECU from a 2.0 N/T engine.
-The MAF and the intake pipe from the 2.0 N/T

Got any questions feel free to contact me at [email protected]
