starting 5 speed swap on my 8g

[millerlite2224]

well im finally gonna start on my 5 speed swap on my 8g galant i got a 2000 eclipse parts car to swap everything out wish me luck guys. is there anything special i need to no bout doing this from the ppl who have done it please let me no. will update with pics asap also how hard u think it would b to do the auto swap into the eclipse my girl wants it and she cant drive a 5 speed. and if anybody is wondering why i dont just drive the eclipse i hate eclipses id much rather have my galant. my girl loves them. so ima give it to her. well ill get pics on soon and liek i said if theres anything special i need to no let me no guys

[OMEGA PHX]

I did exactly the same, I bought the whole car, my advice/warning is that when taking the flywheel out of the eclipse it is going to have 2 of these:
http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z290/OMEGAPHX/flywheelspacer.jpg\

One between the bolts and flywheel and the other one between the flywheel and crankshaft, DO NOT use the one between the flywheel and crankshaft, I'm talking from experience it made the car vibrate and sound horrible since it didn't let the flywheel align on the G.

Have the flywheel cut at a machine shop or a reputable place.

Get a new clutch kit

I have both of these installed and my car runs fine

im swapping motor and all outtta the eclipse so would this matter in that case?

[deeznutz]

Nope swap n go

[millerlite2224]

ok so i picked up the eclipse today and turns out dumbass didnt put oil in the engine and locked the motor up witch is why he quit driving it. yea he wasnt good with cars he had to have a shop put in the racing steering wheel cause he didnt no how lol anyways is there anything special i need to do to make the tranny work with my galant engine now that i got to change the motor. i no i need to change the clutch but other than that

[Black8GV6]

This thread --> https://www.thegalantcenter.org/showthread.php?16557-8G-Auto-to-Manual-Conversion-DONE!-**UPDATED-02-03-06** will have pretty much everything you need to know. If you get stuck, ask questions in this thread you made. You have the advantage of having everything you need and seeing where everything goes by having the eclipse right there next to your galant.

[millerlite2224]

yea i thought this would b the esayest way to do this and sadly enough it was cheaper only gave 800 for the whole car and ive read that thread probally over 20 times just studying how to do this. thanks for reminding me it was here i had forgot about it. yall wish me luck gonna be doing this on my own hopeing i dnt run into no issues i cant figure out. i havent had a problem yet i couldnt over come im pretty mechaically inclined so yea i think i can do it

[master_visionary]

yoi should swap the steering wheels too
well actually there are a few parts yu can swap
and. with the motor out I recommend doing the timing belt

as for the eclipse motor I would take it all apart as a hands on experience
trust me much can be learned

[millerlite2224]

it has a racing steering wheel in it right now i dont like it to much i have one in my galant also so ima leave it alone. i belive ima take the motor apart just like u said as a learning experience and hey if i get it runnin wooo hoo if not oh well. also with the timeing belt how to i reset the timeing and stuff when i change it thats the one thing i never understood how to do in 4cyl motors

[Dominicano]

you should rotate the motor to be Top Dead Center before you remove everything and put everything back it should be at that position

[millerlite2224]

ok a couple more things these maybe kinda noob questions but ima ask anyways lol which cylinder is the number one so i no were top dead center is and axels do i have to get any new ones. i only ask this cause i had a civic with a b series in it and i had to buy like 2 differnt axels for it man that was a mistake buying that thing

[M-Rod]

I'm not sure about the 4 cylinder stuff so I'll let somebody else chime in about the axles, but I do believe they are the same. However, don't quote me on this.

As far as the cylinders go, cylinder number one is closest to the belt. The way to rotate it to TDC though, is to turn it by hand until the timing marks line up. There will be notches in the cam gear and valve cover that line up for sure. There should also be one on the crank pulley that lines up somewhere in there as well. Like I mentioned before I'm not sure of the specifics of the 4 cylinder. If it were the V6 it would be a different story, but alas, I'll help where I can.

[master_visionary]

I want the eclipse muffler if its stock and free+shipping js

also im pretty sure the fsm for your car is in the 8g knowledge base ...read it like the Bible and retain it im 7g so yeah but you seem pretty mechanically inclined so between the knowledge base and common sense I have faith in you good luck

[millerlite2224]

lol if my girl want to change the muffler ill let u no and ill do that for sure

[99galantES]

Axles are the same for the 4cyl

[millerlite2224]

ok good to no cause i just bought brand newones for my galant b4 i got the parts car

[master_visionary]

your on the right track .and Thanks

[millerlite2224]

im hopeing to get started soon i took a vacation in april 2 do this lol

[millerlite2224]

well got the valve cover off and all u smell is burnt oil coming out of the eclipse engine looks like i got a future boat ancor lol will have it out soon and be posting pics soon of my progress

[millerlite2224]

ok got the motor and tranny out of the eclipse it was a tough job by myself but and engine leveler helped me out alot. the engine looks like it might be warped dang the old owner got that thing hot so its no good the trans looks good me being a noob at manual trannys i did nto no they used gear oil and not transmission fluid lol i got a bit of a stupid question though were to put new oil in it at i didnt see any spot to check it or put more in it at hopefully getting ready today to start putting it all in my galant so pic time soon

[master_visionary]

the fun is only beginning my friend :)

[millerlite2224]

i know i still aint tackled getting those shifter cables out lol gonna work on that 2day i guess

[master_visionary]

good luck with your work does your Galant have rear disc? if not And the Eclipse d yo may want to keep the swapping spirit

[millerlite2224]

mine doesnt have rear disks ill have to check that out how hard is that ot swap out ?

[master_visionary]

straight up there's a tutorial in the knowledge base ...im 7g so there may be small differences in procedure but the swap is simple enough the ebrake cable is where you gotta meddle but if its as easy as the 2g -7g swap its no big deal

[master_visionary]

https://www.thegalantcenter.org/showthread.php?37560-How-To-8G-Rear-Disc-Brake-Conversion

this swap was done using 8g rear discs....

http://www.galantforums.net/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6666

and this is that guy confirming 3g brakes :)

[millerlite2224]

well the eclipse dnt have rear disks damnit lol finally got the shifter cable out my my g on a stand still till i get the clutch in so im stuck till then

[master_visionary]

lol shame sorry to get yu excited :) well you now know for future reference look forward to this build and I love the Hood

[DTP]

Good luck, when are you doing it? I'm 2.5 hours out from you.

im working on getting it done soon hope to order the clutch sometime today anybody know of a good cheaper clutch i cant afford an act right now its not boosted or anything at the moment i was gonna order one off ebay called an xtd but idk anybody got sum suggestions. and dang didnt know anybody else around the south messed with these cars lol were u at

[millerlite2224]

yea i traded a guy a 1995 silverado grill for that hood he sold his g and didnt need it no more came with a front bumper and back bumper bommer body kit but i didnt like the way it looked and it was way 2 low my car with the stock bumper sits maybe 4 inches off the ground with that thing it was 1 inch so i just used the hood and got rid of the bumpers. i like tahat its fiberglass and not carbon fiber that way i aint gotta mess up the carbon fiber look by painting it i can paint the fiberglass and be done with it

[master_visionary]

barter is boss .. how close to a yard are you

[millerlite2224]

i got plenty of scrap yards near me 1 got one right in dillon,sc bout 15 miles away and like 4 used parts places around me within 30miles

[master_visionary]

well when yu get rid of the leftovers yu can get the brakes done

[millerlite2224]

lol yea im parting the whole car now so if anybody needs any 2000 eclipse parts hit me up i got bout the whole car minus the motor and trans and the bumpers and the dash is busted cause of the air bag depolyed

[master_visionary]

and minus muffler :)....oh btw just cut it off I just need 2½ inces to weld to thanks

[DTP]

How are the seats?

Might have to get you to help me in the future, I'm looking to get mine done

Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2

[millerlite2224]

seats are good there black cloth there in real good shape and that aint no problem man any time to be honest im just doing this learing as i go and by reading the forums and im pretty mechaically incline to so that helps alot

[millerlite2224]

update got the clutch pedal and got the clutch master in with the resivior have to drill and tap a spot to mount that but its in doing all i can while i wait for the clutch. anybody know of a good clutch to use that dont cost freaking 300 bucks? im not paying that much for it and it just a stock g motor i was thinking bout an xtd stage 3 or something any body got any ideas

[millerlite2224]

my fix to haveing to put those bolts back in under the dash welded 2 nuts to the back side so i can bolt it on form under the hood lol
http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k506/millerlite2224/0403132050_zpsa51b5b55.jpg

[millerlite2224]

i got a question when i bolted the clutch to the fly wheel is the clutch supose to be tight in there between the fly wheel and pressure plate or is it supose to be a little lose idk ive never delt with a clutch b4 ive always had automatics that ive worked on. on an updated note got the shifter mounted and the linkages ran welded me sum nuts to the part thats under the dash so i can bolt them in from under the hood now lol trying to not go through that again

[99galantES]

Yes it is

[millerlite2224]

ok so its supose to be tight thanks for the info

[millerlite2224]

this manual stuff has me all kinds of confused on how it works lol i can drive one good never took one apart to work on it so its all a learning experience for me and down here in nc i aint got noone to help me im trying to do this whole swap on my own and i have to say it aint easy buy no means for anybody thats considering it get a freind to help u wont regret it lol

[99galantES]

I know what you mean I made mine 5spd and that was my first 5spd i ever owned and actually drove hardest part was the damn cables but I did what you did except I didn't weld a nut I put a screw through the bay once it was all through I put the nut from the inside hand tight easy

[millerlite2224]

yea i said i wont going trough that hell again trying to put them back in lol the one on the drivers side i went to drill out and the drill spun the bolt out when i hit it with the bit. hopefully gonna have this done by end of nxt week

[99galantES]

Your going to love it once your done I did mine in one day then helped my bro do his v6 which was a pain in the ass that trans was heavy compared to the i4

[millerlite2224]

yea i cant wait i love driving a manual car i have been figureing this out since i boutght the car 6 years ago. and when the auto tranny messed up i said well this is the perfect time to do it. and i was way suprised at how light the I4 manual is i no the I4 automatic is a beast 2 that thing weighs twice as much as the manual

[millerlite2224]

well getting ready to do my swap 2day fixing to tear out my trans got the pedals and shifter in already gonna drop the trans and all that 2day anybody got any last min advice b4 i start

[millerlite2224]

ok got the trans in not bolted up yet it got dark on me and i dnt got power at my shop yet lol gonna go there today and try to get it bolted up and get the pedals all buttoned up any body no the proper ttpe of trans oil to use in these im not sure and how much

[99galantES]

Use pen they sell it at auto zone and 3qts I believe

[OMEGA PHX]

ok got the trans in not bolted up yet it got dark on me and i dnt got power at my shop yet lol gonna go there today and try to get it bolted up and get the pedals all buttoned up any body no the proper ttpe of trans oil to use in these im not sure and how much

Pennzoil SynchroMesh, Redline MT-90, AMSoil 75w90, buy 3 qts., It uses something like 2.3 qts, the proper way to fill it with oil is wait till its installed and with the car on the ground fill it up until a little oil starts coming out from it.

[coconut]

I used Pennzoil SynchroMesh and havent had no issues,and for the price you cant go wrong.

[millerlite2224]

ok ima go with penzoil there motor oils good i normally use valoline how often do i have to change this oil is it like the motor oil or is it like rearend oil ina straight axle? again im new to this whole manual stuff i can drive one just dnt no much bout maintenance and stuff

[millerlite2224]

ok got an issue my car wont crank now got the swap done and now it will not start at all it turns over but wont crank and body got any ideas i did short the 9 and 10 wires on the black harness

[99galantES]

Make sure all sensors are connected back I had that issue but it was the pins I had wrong

[millerlite2224]

i didnt unhook the motor connectors or anything from the engine but corect me if im wrong but there aint but 2 plugs on the manual tranny aint there. the one in the back near the axles and the reverse sensor.what do i do with the harness on the clutch pedal just not hook it up? whitch pins are right like color wise and whitch plug? i was told the big balck plug that connects to the old park nutral switch. is that right the 2 biggest wires on there that u short out?

[99galantES]

The one in the back is the speed sensor then you take the big plug there's 4 big wires two go to the reverse I hope your using the plug from the eclipse then the other two are for the car to think its in neutral and those go together now the switch on the clutch pedal don't worry about that you don't need it at all

[OMEGA PHX]

This is how, check if you got the right pins shorted
http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z290/OMEGAPHX/ECUconnector1.jpg (http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z290/OMEGAPHX/ECUconnector1.jpg)

[millerlite2224]

ok so it is the big black plug then ill double check that when i get back to my shop

[millerlite2224]

were exacally is the rev solenoid? is it the only other plug on the trans up front ?

[99galantES]

Yes

[millerlite2224]

ok im on my way back form the beach had to get away from the swap for a bit i was getting pretty aggervated with it lol but as soon as i get back ill check all that and get yall an update

[millerlite2224]

ok so i feel pretty stupid didnt think to check my gas to see if i had enough in it to crank it. the gauge said it had a quarter of a tank but didnt take into consideration it was up on jack stands. lol i feel dumb. i shot sum startin fluid in it and it fired off gonna go today and put sum gas in it. i gotta question can u adjust these clutches if u can how. the reason i ask is i tried puttin it in gear and holding the clutch to see if the wheels would move when i cranked it and they still are moving. could this be cause theres no weight on the wheels or is something wrong?

[OMEGA PHX]

If you have the clutch pedal to the floor the wheels shouldn't move,
How to adjust the clutch:

[millerlite2224]

thanks for the info on this and i screwed up a little bit as i was pulling the carpet padding from behind the air box i pulled 2 wires apart from the harness anybody no were a red wire with black strip and a brown wire with a black strip with silver dots go it come through the main harness and connects to the pcm

[millerlite2224]

im not getting any power to the fuel pump and its got a full tank of gas. put my test light to the main power on the pump and it has no power wondering if one of thesse wires goes to the pump

[OMEGA PHX]

First check the fuel pump relay in the engine bay fuse/relay box, check if fuel pump works, swap it with the one thats for the a/t trans, if that doesn't work then one of those wires is the cause, what year is your G your gonna need a pinout to locate where those wires go.

[millerlite2224]

its a 2000 model 4cyl were can i get a pin out and whitch ones for the fuel pump its nto really labled in the fuse box

[OMEGA PHX]

Its a relay its located in the "L" shaped fuse box on the engine bay look at the inside lid of that fuse box for specific location, I don't have a pinout t the moment

[millerlite2224]

ok ill keep searching for the pinout im afraid ima have to remove the dash to get to were it broke at looks like i cant catch a break with this try to do a simple swap and end up with a huge headache

[millerlite2224]

well looks like im gonna have to remove the dash and airbox so i can get to were the wires broke and fix them looks like im in for some fun

[OMEGA PHX]

You just need to take out the lower dash part and the ac blower.
If you can understand this then it will help you:
This is a Galant to Evo pin out(credit goes to underated), the pin numbers for the galant are at the right side of the chart, on the chart you can see whats that pin for, on the left side of the chart you can see the pin locations, look at the one that says <A/T> this image is as if you were looking at the ecu connectors from the car/wires side Hope it helps Fuel Pump Relay is Pin #21

[millerlite2224]

yes this helps im going to work on it today and ill let yall no hopefully if i fix it

[millerlite2224]

this is what u get when u try to rush to get stuff done and rip the carpet out from under the dash with some pliers u have to rip the dash out and airbox just to repair them lol

[millerlite2224]

this is what was wrong with the engine i pulled from the parts car eclipse a busted piston belive it or not the block was not messed up since the piston didnt turn

[millerlite2224]

got the pcm wires fixed and car still wont crank wires are shorted right could the fact that the dash and everything no being bolted in cause a grounding issue cause hte dash brace is nto bolted up either

[wetamup2k3g]

O.o What caused the rod to do the Terminator impression, oil starvation?

[millerlite2224]

i guess so the guy i got the car from didnt no nuttin bout a car i drained bout 2 and a half quarts out of it i no when i took it apart all u can smell is burnt oil

[wetamup2k3g]

iAye pobrecita! Hate to see such neglect. Anyhow, I wish I knew the answer to your no-start problem. You may have a ground issue with the dash support being out, but I've never done a disassembly to that level to know for sure.

[millerlite2224]

i had to cause of me trying to pull that gray glued up carpet with sum pliers and pull 2 wires apart on my pcm and had to remove the airbox under the dash to get to it to fix it a major pain in the tail. ima replace my heater core and everything while i got it out lol so i aint gotta do it again. and yes ill agree neglect like that is terrible and the sad part is it was like a 30 year old man letting go like that u would think he would no how to check the dang oil its kool though ima get the block checked and if its good im gonna start my build race motor

[millerlite2224]

gonna try shortin those wires again 2day anybody got anything else on why it might not crank im not getting any reverse lights either when i hook them up

[millerlite2224]

well i feel like a pure total dumb@$$ when i took the dash out to fix those wires i unpluged the imobilizer plugged it in fired right up still gotta adjust the clutch cause the wheels still spin when the clutch is pushed down but other than that i think im bout ready to get it on the road

[wetamup2k3g]

There you go! Glad it's nearly sorted out.

[99galantES]

Good to hear but we all make mistakes

[millerlite2224]

yea me too glad its bout over yall didnt lie when yall said it was a pain still gotta say that the shifter cable bolts were the most pain in the ass though

[millerlite2224]

does anybody no why the clutch wouldnt be engaging. i havent adjusted it yet gonna do that tomarrow. just want sum info on this. could i have put the release bearing in wrong i hooked it back on with the wire clip that was on it. anybody got a link of video on the proper way to put that thing in. also could a bad slave cause this also how do u tell if the slave is bad?

[OMEGA PHX]

First bleed the system completely, adjust the pedal and then move to the other stuff. A slave or master cylinder are bad if they are leaking fluid, take off the slave cylinder boot and see if there any fluid leaking also check the area of the clutch pedal/master cylinder for leaks.

[dknight3]

if the tires are spinning then it is engaging you mean it wont disengage, and yes, you need to bleed the system and you should be good to go unless you messed somthing up :)

[dknight3]

let me know i have almost brand new slave and master if you need them ill hook you up.

[millerlite2224]

yea i ment disengaugeing lol i dnt got any leaks so ill keep bleading it and if it dont work ill try adjusting it. if that dont work i might have to drop it again to see if i done something wron with the release bearing it does just stay on with that wire clip right? or does it hook to the metal and the clip hold it in place?

[millerlite2224]

when i took off the old one it popped off so i didnt really get to see how it whent on

[OMEGA PHX]

Yes the release bearing stays on with the clip only, the clutch release fork attaches to the trans by the pivot ball.
Bleed the system as much as you can. DO you have pressure on the pedal or does it easily goes to the floor without? Adjust the pedal. Have someone step on the clutch pedal and watch for the slave cylinder movement.

[millerlite2224]

ok just makeing sure i put it on right cause it was a little lose with just that clip on it lol just bleed the crap out of the system still wont disengauge gonna go and adjust it now acording to how that video u put on here for me tell me to and hope that works if not ima drop thje trans to make sure everythings right in there. i was bleeding it wrong i thought u did it like u did brakes didnt no u cracked the bleader open and then pressed the pedal. so got it bleed to were nuttin but fluid comes out now so it should be bleed plenty pedal is very tight but it does have some small play in it right as u push down on it but i think thats were it need adjusting. with it being a new clutch and all it might need to be adjusted back. gonna do that nxt hope for the best will let yall no.

[millerlite2224]

well clutch is bled pedal is tight clutch adjusted and still no disengaugeing of the clutch the wheels still spin with the clutch pushed down. anybody got any ideas on what might b wrong? could i have the release bearing in wrong?

[zobgel]

sounds like you need a new slave cylinder.

[99galantES]

Is the car on or off the floor?

[millerlite2224]

no its on stands with the wheels off does that matter

[99galantES]

Put the car on the floor and go from there when I did mine and had it off the ground my wheels were spining bleed it and check everything while the car is on the floor

[millerlite2224]

it being in the air like that would cause the clutch not to disengauge?

[99galantES]

Not sure but its best to try it while the car is on the floor

[millerlite2224]

ok thanks ill try that b4 i pull the trans back out

[Silvertune]

If the car is up and the engine on the wheels are going to spin unless the clutch somehow splits the plates perfectly. There is ALWAYS drag on the shafts in the transmission, even if you're in neutral if there is zero resistance on the wheels they will turn.

Even when you depress the clutch, the plates aren't sprung to come apart. They're like brake rotors, they still rub together and again, when there is zero resistance at the wheels they will spin.

Put the car on the floor and try it again. If it doens't want to go into gear when you have the clutch down then you have an issue but if it goes into gear fine then what you're seeing is 100% normal.

[millerlite2224]

ok thanks for the info this is my first time working on a 5 speed so all this is new to me ill try that as soon as i get the time.

[millerlite2224]

i got a question does my slave cyilinder need to be compressed when the clutch is not being pressed down or does it still look like its normal i noticed on another car that when it was jst sitting there it was compressed in and when the pedal was pushed it would push out. i ask this cause mine just sits there like it would if it were new in ur hands . and when the clutch is pressed it only moveout maybe half an inch.

[zobgel]

Don't waste your time!!! Just get a new slave cylinder! Even the car is on jack stand or floor it should be able to engage your clutch. The slave should be pressed all the way when you stepped on the clutch pedal.

[99galantES]

Is it bled right?

[millerlite2224]

ive bled it so much that ive gone through a big bottle of brake fluid

[99galantES]

Lol if adjusting doesn't work either do what zobgel said

[millerlite2224]

i adjusted it acoording to that video someone posted on here but the more i adjusted it i never got tighter or anything and that video was for a 2g dsm are they the same? adjustment wise i mean

[99galantES]

Yes they are but if your pedal is too far in its going nowhere my clutch pedal is the same height as my brake

[millerlite2224]

mine further up then my clutch pedal i have to push it in further so it gets more travel

[millerlite2224]

thanks zobgel i put a new slave on it blead it an it now is disengaugeing also thanks to 99galantES for all ur help 2 and everyone else that helped me out through this. gonna try and put the wheels on it 2day and take it for a test drive

[99galantES]

Welcome and glad you got it all working

[zobgel]

Good to hear that you got it fix man. If you just listen to my first post you should get your car fix long time ago. LOL

Now enjoy your galant! :]

[millerlite2224]

u no what dude lol i never saw were u put that on there until just now yea if i would of seen that eairlier would of saved me sum time. i still aint got no revs lights though and ive got them wired up right anybody got any sugestions lol i can live with out them though

cant PM for whatever reason...sssooooo at any point did you have to mod your ECU to not get the CEL? I have an 03 and doing research and I have found I need to get an older ecu and flash it or flash my own. Dont really feel like dropping $100 bux on a cable i'll only use once to do it my self.

[coconut]

Yes the Ecu has to be patched if you want the cel light off . Hit up isario for the patch. He is AWSOME when it comes to this, as a matter a fact I just goth Ecu back from him last week and it works great. He even tuned it for the manual trans and let me tell you it is a totally different car. Props to isario. Quick on doing it and kept me inform with every step ..

At the bottom of the page, change the TGC Dark - Fluid style to the standard style, and everything will work. Then you'll be able to PM.

Qwick question is there any way to make the cruise control work after the 5 speed swap

[coconut]

Qwick question is there any way to make the cruise control work after the 5 speed swap

Yep, I think i put the switch on the top part of the pedal, the starter switch. I'll have to look how I set I up for you, if someone dosent beat me to it.

[millerlite2224]

Thanks any help would b nice what switch are u talking bout

[coconut]

Thanks any help would b nice what switch are u talking bout

It's the neutral safety switch that goes on the pedal asy so when you depress the pedal you can start it? Well I didn't wire mine up like most members did in the engine bay, you know the two wires everyone is saying to connect so you can start it ? I took two wires and fed them in the cab, by the pedal. Instead of connecting them directly to each other. Two seperate wires,one side on the switch and the other to the other side, I went to the jy and sniped a connector to plug in directly on the switch ,but on my pedal asy I have two different spots for the switches. One is for cruise control switch( the top part of the pedal and l the lower is for the neutral switch) I put the switch on top so when you depress the pedal is would start the car and cruise works perfect. Good luck. Hope this helps and I didn't confuse you. Lol!!

[millerlite2224]

It's a little confusing yea so I just hook those wires to the top switch and it will still crank and the cruise will work

[coconut]

I think you also have to connect the wires at the PCM also. Can't remember . There is a tut on here also about the c17 connector at the PCM or Ecu (which ever you want to say ) . I'll see if I can find it again for you. Just came to me the connection at the PCM is for your speedo to work. But search a lil and you shall find it my friend. If not pm me. But yes run two seperate wires into the cab to the switch.
