Wondering how to do a 4g63 swap into my 98 gs

Short answer, if it's a GS coupe, dont do it.

Long answer, you're going to spend more money than it's worth to try and swap it as the 4G63t and 420a motors sit in opposite orientations in the engine bay. You'd have to custom fab engine and trans mounts, rewire EVERYTHING, by the time you finish the project you will have spent more than you would to just source a running GST or GSX.

Start a thread of the project if you get serious about it. You'll get a lot of help from the community that way.
