4g63 mivec

[Ace_gst]

Ok so i have a 2g with a 1g block and 2g head. Was thinking about different heads to get and was wondering if u can put mivec on a 4G63 block.

 

[dboyle23]

Why would you want to get a different head?

 

[Bud92gsx]

The mivec head is flipped 180 degrees..And you would need new boost piping, turbo and probably a few other things..

 

[atownturbo]

Would you have to flip the stock block? How would you control the rotating assembly? It would probably be easier putting the whole evo mivec motor in your car. IMO

In short, no you cannot. You'll need a lot more money then it'd ever be worth.

 

[dsm03]

Nope. And if you figure it out, it is not worth the time, money, or effort.

i dont want to thread hijack but i gotta ask, can somebody(not me) take a mivec motor and make an AWD out of a 99 eclipse GS or RS since they have the motor turned 180'? im just asking so EVERYBODY DON"T FLIP OUT im not going to do it

Yopu can do an evo motor in a non 4g63 car..But everything is on the other side on the 4g63 cars so it would be almost impossible..

The evo's are swapped the other direction, with timing belt on the passenger side, just like the 2G n/t's. I don't see where anyone said anything about the timing components being on the OTHER SIDE of the engine/head.

It has been done. There is a thread here somewhere but I dont remember the title at all.

 

[Bud92gsx]

That kinda what I said besides the timing components..The intake faces the drivers side, and the timing components are on the passenger side..

My mom has this same 4g63 in her hyndai..Besides the mivec and the turbo and what not..

The evo engine is a much more likely swap than a 1G/2G engine.. The mounts are already halfway set up properly. It has been done a few times, I know exactly what you are talking about.

I also know a guy who swapped a DSM 4g63 into a 2g GS. He was highly upset when I told him that there was a writeup on how to swap a complete EVO drivetrain into a GS and he just got done turning his into a GSX using DSM parts.

I found the reference, after a little searching. It's not exactly an tech manual for those who want to do it, but it seems like a good way to get started.

Gofer originally brought it to the forums:
Gofer's initial reference post

There is a brief discussion about it, with pictures (some which have been removed), initiated by x97dsmx on dsmtalk:
DSM Talk thread about swapping evo 4g63 into 2g GS/RS

Again, not a lot of detail about how to do it precisely, but x97dsmx did leave his contact information in the other thread.

Thanks to gofer and x97dsmx (dsmtalk) for bringing that up for everyone.

Yes you can add mivec to a 1g/2g head. Kiggly has done it on his drag car as well as another person.

 

[Ace_gst]

How did he go about doing this. I think it would be awesome to have it in a 1g/2g, something different.

Has anyone figured out how to do it and control this book has given me a few ideas on how to do it http://books.google.com/books?id=Y2...a=X&ei=4FAFT9CyBMKYiALHtoCWDQ&ved=0CFUQ6AEwBg but if some has already done it I'd like to hear from them first
