4G94 Auto to Manual

I'm converting my auto to manual.
I work at my family owned mechanic shop so I will be doing the labor.
No matter what anybody says I'm still doing the swap lol so no negatively only want answers lol.
I will be buying new and used parts.

Correct me if I'm wrong
02-06 lancers are the same for engine and trans.

I'm buying a 2003 Manual Trans.
Will a 2006 flywheel fit on the 03 trans.

Any websites you guys can recommend on getting parts.

Are there any interchangeable parts I can use without problems.

When I buy a new ECU. Does It need to be updated for the manual trans if it's already a manual lancers ECU(from a 2003 already)

If anybody can help toss a comment below or send me a message.

Once again I'm going to do this no matter what if it's worth it or not Im swapping it. Money doesn't bother me when i am having fun working on projects.

02-03 lancers have a internal slave. 04-07 lancers have a external slave. The flywheels are the same as well as clutch. You'll need a manual ecu as the auto ecu you have now may throw a check engine light when some of the electronics are unplugged. I would probably opt for a 02-03 ecu because they have more definitions for them when tuning. The auto and manual roms are definitely different. The auto rom is 512kb and the manual is 256kb. Road race motorsports has a few lancer parts but if you do some homework you can find what you need.

On top of all that i would say the 02-03 and 04-06 use different fuel system types....the 02-03 have a FPR and a return style fuel system as the 04-06 use a returnless fuel system with the FPR inside the fuel pump unit.

because the engines are not even the same family, the won't bolt up...not to mention the 4g63 bottom end is at least twice as strong...why would you even want to use a weak block with a 4g63 head...did you plan on ditching the turbo?

OK see there two people using this boat me and my brother I have the evo engine and the money and brain power for the lancer swap but he wants to just add some parts from an evo and try to frankinstine his so the question about the ego head swap post is my brother I'm the on that owns the 4g63 motor from now on to know the difference between use two I'm going to leave 4g63/Oz at the end of my post... Just so you can tail who is who 4g63/Oz

Attempting manual swap using manual trans from 2003 eclipse GS

Hey man did you ever get the swap figured out? I’m jus bought a parts car with the 4g64 and 5 speed manual and want to manual swap my oz rally and then engine swap later down the line, trying to do my research before starting the swap but it seems every thread is just people saying DONT, but I’m going to anyways, what did you do for your wiring harness situation and did you flash your ecu or use a different one? Any advice would help thanks
