need help on this decision ASAP

[Eric03]

ok, i have a 91 gs eclipse, FWD n/t, im thinking of swapping a GSX motor and tranny into my gs, making it AWD and turbo, would this be reliable and would i be satisfied?? i am gettin a GSX car for $600 and want to put everything on that car onto my gs, the GSX was totaled but the engine and parts that i need are still good, right now i have about 150K miles on my engine, will it work or is it a waste of money??

You should find a AWD shell and swap the parts
Too much money and work for your wanted project

Or you could just swap the motor from the gsx into your gs and have a turbo fwd.

unless you are a true master of customizing and fabricating parts and you got alot of time and money to blow its not worth it. The two options stated above me are your best bet.

Good luck

theres more to it than just adding the tranny...there's the ecu, the wiring of the ecu, the rear axles, transfer case, the rear differential(with abs its even more of a pain), the motormounts, the stress, the time, the money, the....well....you get my point...

NOT WORTH IT.....

Save the 600$, Sell the n/a car, And buy yourself a turbo car without having to make it turbo and or awd. I know everyone will bi*** because they don't like to hear this, But it's the truth. You save yourself ALOT of aggrivation, And most likly will be happier.
