    swap parts???

    Does anyone know what performance parts that are made for the eclipse will bolt right up to our engines? Like intake manifolds, headers, pulley kits, etc. I'm hoping not swap my engine and just keep our great 2.4 SOHC lol. If not I'll just have to swap for a 4g63t.

    lots of parts, try a search? we need some stickies

    headers from the 4g63 and the 4g64 spyder will fit, but not any intake manifolds

    I need some clarification... does that mean that aftermarket headers for the 4g63 will fit?

    the headers will fit. the downpipe is another issue.

    Webhosting for less than $3 a month? put "pinoyesv6" as a promo code.

    There is also a pulley kit available for the spyder that will fit our cars.

    I'll try and find the link.

    pretty much everything sept intake manifold will bolt onto the sohc. If you wanna get ballsy then you can even slap on a 2.0 DOHC head on the 2.4block.

    headers will fit, turbo manifolds, turbos, lightned pullys, suspension kits, radiators, throttlebodies, cyl heads...

    thats about everything i can think of right now..

    i think i may be missing something here, but you want parts from an eclipse? some of the parts you asked for are available for galants...check www.visionimports.com and http://www.rpw.com.au/... unless im completely missing the point, and you really just like to use eclipse parts.

    If they are made for an eclipse they are usualy cheaper to buy because its more in demand. The same part made specificaly for a galant is usualy overpriced. Eitherway the galant and eclipse share a ton of the same characteristics, suspension geometry, engine parts, engine mount locations for swaps, shifters, strut bars, etc etc

    Its much easier to find eclipse parts anyway especialy on ebay.

    So you're saying that the header here:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=2418255242

    will fit? Then I would need a custom downpipe, right?

  11. #11
    yup, u'll need a shop to modify that downpipe to fit ur car, make sure its a 4g63 header and not a 420a

    Anyone know much the custom work on the downpipe would cost?

    I'm thinking you can buy the Eclipse header much cheaper because they're obviously more mass produced, but the customizing may add up to the cost of buying the RPW header??

    Then again, the custom downpipe couldn't be much more than like an hour of labor I assume...

    I see and understand what everyone is saying in here, but a "7G" isn't just a SOHC. I am fortunate enough to own a 2.4L DOHC, and was wondering the same question on what is compatible with " MY " engine. Also, I'm looking for a short shifter, anyone know of one that will fit my car? stock height is just a few inches too tall for me. Let me know, and thank you very much

    you are lucky man(BTW you have a 94 gs ) cause your DOHC head is pretty much the same head thats on the turbo eclipse. so im pretty sure all eclipse head internals will work 8)

    The infamous 94 DOHC i thought it was a myth. Dude a 7g for all practicle purposes is sohc. I cant even find a 94 GS anywhere in a junkyard in ny. This website said the 94 galants only 1% where dohc. Either way it still swaps with eclipse parts so, "YOUR" engine is still compatible with everyone being writtin here...
