Re: Engine Swap Help Me!!!!!!
another person wanting to swap.......awesome.its cool that you want to make the effort to do it but its not easy, but its not terribly hard.i am doing a swap too, but im going n/t until i have at least 250-275 horse.heres a little list of what you will need, and some approx. prices
* jdm(optional but suggested)4g63t or n/t 92' 6 bolt 550$-1200$
* ecu 75$-130&
* engine harness 75$-100$ (the one under your hood going to the right side of your dash to your ecu)
* i know someone who can wire a n/t harness to fit a turbo dsm
* a a/c pulley if you want to keep your a/c. 10$-15$( the 1.8 has a pulley for a v belt and the 2.0 is a grooved belt.
* if you go n/t, the tranny will work
* i suggest a performance clutch and flywheel $$-depends on which one you want
* a gauge cluster from a 2.0 t or n/t. 20$ (2.0 redlines @ 7k and the 1.8 @ 6k)
* i "think" you will also have to replace the harness going to your gauge cluster if you go turbo because of the boost gauge. ??$
* be sure to get the same year of ecu as harness because they made little changes throughout the years 89-94. even better if you get them from the same car.
ill double check on everything and ill post again if i am missing something but i think i got everything.my swap should be done in a month to a month and a half.i am waiting on my clutch and flywheel.good luck, and hope i helped a little
