You can put a jet engine in your g if you have enough money, time, and patience.

The answer is..nobody knows. Sure it could be done, but to my nowledge it has never been done before.

Meh....just swap it for a 63, much more aftermarket support there anyway.

6a12tt.

If you want a nice easy cheap swap then go for the '63t. If you want a swap that will take forever and be a pita try the 6a12tt. The main problem I find in doing this swap is actually getting the motor and the drivetrain. Unless you can get a non vr4 6a12 drivetrain you will have to convert to awd. Im not sure if they made the 6a12 in 5spd or not(havent seen many) But the ideal setup would be a 6a12tt motor with a fwd 6a12 5spd tranny(like out of a vrx). Also wiring would be a very very big pita. You couldnt use your ecu because its a 4cy ecu. You have to use a 6a12tt ecu and the harness. Good luck finding wiring schematics in english https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif

Can USDM 7G E56A be converted to AWD using parts ripped from JDM E84A VR4? I don't have a VR4. And I don't have enough money, just wondering https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif Sounds like a dream car project https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif Wiring would be a nightmare https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif Most of the car would have to be rewired https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif


As for the wiring schematics in english, that's not a problem, I know where to get JDM Mitsu service manuals on CDs for the price of printed Mitsu books on USDMs https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif The bigger problem would be getting spare parts over here https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif It would suck to pay $40 just for a tranny oil pan gaset shipped to US https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif
