i got really bored one day and thought of a project to do but 1st i gotta get everything straightened out to see if this will work or if its jus a dream. anyways i was wanting to use an evo engine. but the car im wanting to use is FWD and dont wanna have to do abunch of body fabricating.so ive done a few post here and there and i heard that the late eclipse model has a FWD tranny that i could use with the evo engine. and i was wanting to kno if it was true or not. thanks for the help i would be greatly appreciated

 

the evo engine is 180 from the other 4g63's and form the "late model eclipses" as well I believe. It will be tough and a lot of money/work. Anyone can do anything with time and money. youd be better off buying a turbo kit and buildin a stout block out of your current engine.

 

+1

anything can be done if you have the right amount of money. there is a civic hatch that has transplanted the whole evo engine into it leaving it fwd i believe also. don't quote me on that one. i will post pics of it if the file isn't too large. well good luck with whichever path you take.

 

the v6 eclipse's and evo's face the same direction. and i believe they also share the same bell housing bolt pattern.

 

yeah i didnt know exactly. i never touched the girl cars.

 

man thanks alot guys how much do u think it would run me im gonna be using an 88/89 crx si. just for fun. but if its too much then ill prolly jus fix it up. oh yea whtevo were did u get those pics.

 

hahaha!

 

i put a GSR engine in a 91 CRX not sure if the older is the same size but it might work. they are similar in size. might be a little tight with turbo and radiator.

 

how much power does a GSR have and how much does it cost

 

um talking b18 (ithink) with a rebuild and tons of parts header, hks cams, ,......stuff it made like 220 whp on a 50 shot and then it blew up 3 days later because of a bad rod. it was a waste of money and time,

 

dang that sux man sorry bout that it happend to me 2 put alot of money trying ot make a good v6 engine for my mustang drove it for like a week then it blew. allot of money down tha drain. im new to the honda world and i like there cars cuz there lite and the crx is pretty damn lite and im trying to figure everything out 1st befor i start doing stuff. so i wont waste all my money

 

i found it laying around at a junkyard. it really only cost me like 350 to get everythng together and installed. just pissed me off. It didnt blow up cool. it just stopped working. at least for that much it should have,

 

Just use a damn DSM 4G63 if must. No real point in paying all the extra money for an Evo engine if you've got to do the fabricating in the first place. Mike Simon already did a 4G63 CRX, but it was RWD.

 

i hate the honda engines. weak as hell with out tons of work. DO what he said^

 

man thanks alot guys yall have helped me out alot i just need to read up some more on the DSM 4G63 i jus need to see abou thte tranny tho some people say its possible with an eclipse tranny then some say NO!!!! no ****in way. but yall seem like you kno what yall are talking about. ive searched on google n stuf like that and ive asked people with evo's and they dont kno either. thanks for all the help guys. and yea the only thing i like abou tthe honda really is that they make there cars EXTREMELY lite. and i would like to put a high powered lil engine like an evo. to make it really fly
