Here in maine theres a book called uncle henrys that is a sellers/buyers book. There is a 4g64 engine from an older galant vr-4 for $1000. I got thinking, why spend so much money on turbo and what not to install on a 4g94 and why buy a brand new really expensive 4g64 to swap out (I believe thats whats in an evo/noobish of me) enstead of just getting an older one? other then the miles of course.......... Any opinions on using an older 4g64?

 

Before you get flamed, I'll say it.

Good ******* luck getting the ****er to fit in your car.

 

The GVR4 has a DSM G63T (early years, latter years in JPN has the 6a13). Otherwise, it's a plain 4g64 or NA 4G63; depending on the year, it will face the wrong way. I do believe post-99 galants face the right way.

In America, small displacement 6 bangers don't sell, because it lacks severe TQ. Imagine a 350 motor w/ peaky HP and low TQ off the line . . . will American buyers want it? Nope.

 

Ok, I search and found this https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...64+engine+swap seeing as it's 3 am and I'm dead tired, I'll let you red it.

 

It's an old thread, very confusing. Past posters probably need to revise/edit their info.

Amongst the 4g mirage, 2-3 owners have done it, not G63/64T hybrids.

Amongst the 5g owner, ONLY 1 existed in the US. Yes, LB has answered in the other thread.
