You can use the Mirage transmission, the 7 bolt non turbo 4G63 from a 1G DSM is the same size as the Mirage Flywheel. That flywheel is hard as hell to find, took me 2 months to find one. Came from the 92.5-94 4G63 Eclispe/Talon.

but the orientation of the 7-bolt non turbo 4G63 is totally different from the 7-bolt 4G64 for the 8G's. Might fit the 7G's though if I understand correctly.

Orientation does not matter, I thought that to but the swap has been done in a Mirage. Using the Mirage transmission will put the starter behind the engine like the 7G, but thats a good thing in my opinion.

you're right. but I guess we'll need to see it to make sure.

Someone try it!!!! lol.

I'll be trying it soon, but the swap has been done. I got lucky today at the pull a part. I found a 5 speed GTS, the front was cut off but shifter/w cables and pedals where still there. Sadly the clutch line had been cut, but I only paid $37.84 for the shifter, clutch pedal, master and black e-brake. I'm going back tuesday for the rear disk.

GTS?? Galant? or Lancer??

Eclipse

ah. I see.

well, some pics of my car to freshen up this project thread.
you can see the difference in color. I think its from the clear but not sure. Will do for now.

This is the color I would like to get her painted.

i see you got some work done by mark at one6 i live like 5 minutes from there

**4g63lover** · 06-02-2009, 03:25 AM

yup. Mark's the only shop I trust. I make the 40 min trek out to Elk Grove everytime I need parts.

Although, I work on my car myself. I just buy parts there, and sometimes I'll have him work on it when i don't have time to do it myself.

the way the car sits at the moment. She's a very confused car. Grille color is once again gunmetal, She is still waiting on a M/T swap (I need to stop being lazy and get off my ass and find a trans), tails are again tinted, but much much lighter this time, and I got the stickers I had Seth make today along with the "No fat chicks/will rub sticker". I know no one here likes stickers but to each his own and I am not taking them off. =P lol
