I have a 92 N/t, and i recently bought a 92 gst. They are both 6bolts, the gst I was told only needed a piston but as i took it apart, the piston was totally melted nothing I've ever seen before and the head wasnt salvagable either.
So my question is what can i change over to my n/t as far as everything else. I already got the gauges and the interior swapped. Can I use the injectors stuff like that?
 
My N/t is also a 5speed...would it be worth swapping engine harness and ecu? would it even work?
 
Is your N/T a 1.8L or a 2.0L?

If it is 2.0 your could switch nearly any part as far as drive-train. I could go through what is a goodidea and what isn't but that is a rather long list. Just do some reading into n/t 2.0 to turbo conversions.
 
Its a 2.0. i plan on checking if the block is any good but the piston is totally melted you can see the rod its horrific to say the least. I was planing on rebuilding the gst motor just got overwhelmed with all what was melted and the head was melted to a couple of valves were broke and melted in the head.

As far as driving the gst the body isnt as good as my n/t. the front end is baked paint isnt as well kept like the n/t wanted to swap out everything. OH btw the turbo is junk. the previous owner cooked it literally LOL
 
You can just swap the parts and harness along with the ECU and injectors.

Well, is a long list, But as far all the parts are usable, like the manifold Down pipe, etc, etc.

You can just drop a turbo if yours is not good.

I would say is straight , Nothing special like cutting and welding like the awd swap.

Just do the conversion.
