2000 gs engine+5 speed trany swap
I have an opertunity to get an salvaged 2000 eclipse for around 400 https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif
it only hase 25000miles on it and it the engine and 5 speed trany seem to be good.
Now i was wondering could i just take the engine out with the trany and drop it into my car? I'm have read a big amount of threads and i know how the tranny swap would work but how about the engine are they all the same conectors? or do the eclipses have something on theyr 4g64 that we dont have. In the 2000+ eclipses if i'm not mistaking have also an knock sensor and i'm not sure if we do. How about the ECU? Are they diferent i found my ECU in the center consols that is inbetwen the pasenger and driverside legs space but it only hase one conector so i dont think that that is the ecu. but please let me know where the ECU is located and how would i change the whole engine and the tranny.

That piece your refering too is not the ECU, dont swap motors just do the tranny swap and leave the ECU alone, the part you were referring to is the Airbag control module, reconnect it and slowly back away.....
