2G AWD and FWD Torque Converter Interchangeability

[Nguyen13]

Could someone tell me if my GST Eclipse fits, the torque converter is from an AWD Eclipse because mine is FWD?

The one in the first photo of AWD

The one in the second photo is the FWD is currently my Eclipse.

I see you are saying the pilot diameter is different. I am not sure why different. Maybe OEM vs Reman.
Is the pilot OD is smaller than the ID of bushing on crankshaft?

This seems to be yours and according to the manufacturer site, it should fit with a 1998 Turbo FWD.

I am not sure what you are talking about but you mentioned that your car is a 1998 Turbo FWD.
It would be supposed to work.

I am pretty sure the pilot bushing for 1g and 2g's are the same. I'm puzzled by the difference in converter pilot size. They should be the same.
