Well basically i found a motor out of a salvaged laser that I want to put in my 2g...

I plan on ripping out the motor and basically rebuilding the whole thing so it is suitable for boost. When it comes to 1g engines in 2g cars i can get confused very quickly so talk to me like im 5 years old. Anyways, I've been looking for rebuild kits on ebay... but i dont know if this will work:

Engine Rebuild kit from ebay

Under applications it has 4G63 all over the place but it signifies turbo everywhere also... Since this engine i'm getting is going to be turned into a turbo engine then is this kit compatible? After this kit will I be able to start the process of turbofying it?

Edit: Also am I assuming correctly that this engine is a 6 bolt coming out of this 1993 laser?

please clarify what you are trying to do... are you going to put a 4g63 into a 2gnt or a 2g turbo? if your trying to put it in a 2gnt, then stop now. if your trying to put it in a 2g turbo, then you should try posting in the 4g63 engine section

with that said, your engine isnt necessarily a 6 bolt. i believe early 93's were 6 bolt, later were 7 bolt, but im not sure. the things you need to make it a "turbo motor"(besides the turbo) are pistons, rods, and other stuff... search a lot
 
Okay,

1. Removing engine from 93 laser
2. Converting to turbo
3. Putting it in a 99 spyder that is NT

Why might you say "stop now" if im going to but it in a NT car?

please fill out your profile.

putting it into a 2gnt spyder is a different story. i was talking about putting it in a 2gnt... that swap costs a lot and is pointless...

now for your spyder i cant really help you. im not to knowledgable about the 4g64. sorry
