If you think it will be that easy, go ahead and try it. I mean Diavlo put a USDM RA engine in his UK lancer and he is spending big $$$. ifyou can do the whole swap for 5K including engine and labor then more power to ya! just read this thread for some refernce b4 you try that https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=230893

 

Yeah that sounds sweet, and 4g63's are powerplants... ask if your getting a 7-bolt or a 6-bolt though. Pina Motorsports sells built 6bolts for around the 2k-2.5k range.

 

Okay... since you are bound and determined to 'try it' at least go where the parts are.

Probably the cheapest place I've found a 4g63 or any other JDM motor for that matter. Also a good place to find other options like a 6A12 twin turbo OR Mivec (not both) for your old school DSM.

Also check out dsm.org for a ton of information on... yeah... dsm's

 

yeah the fwd transmission is pretty strong so theyre probably not going to do much to it, the gst is the fwd turbo anyway and the gsx is the awd version, the gst im thinking in theory would fit pretty well
