There are a few things we need to figure out first. You might have typed the year or model wrong in your post.

You said you have a 1997 Eclipse GS that has a 4g63. This can not be true. There weren't any Eclipse GS's made from 1995 to 1999 that had that engine. They were all 420a engines.

Now, if you meant you have a 1997 Eclipse "GS-T" that is a different story. If that is the case then you already have a 4g63T engine because all Eclipses that had the 4g63 engine from 1995-1999 have the 4g63T.

If you in fact have an Eclipse GS with the 4g63 engine then your car has to be between the years of 1989 - 1994.

If you open up your driver's door you will see a white sticker on the painted metal where the door seals. Read that sticker and let us know for sure what year and model your car is.

A very few number of eclipses were shipped to europe. They all had the 4g63. The swap is VERY easy. In fact its a direct drop in. The only thing you will need is a new exhaust, engine harness, and Mass Air Flow Sensor (maybe a few other things here and there but thats about it).

The only difference between the 4g63 and 4g63T is different pistons.


p.s. thanks for the correction milman

when they are saying 6 botl or 7 bolt, they are refering to your CRANK. our 6 bolt motors are the more popular of choice and swaps. After I believe 94, the 7 bolt cranks became more prone to what they call crankwalk. This had something to do with the oil squirters in the block.

They say the best combo is a 6 bolt block with a 4 bolt rear.

Guys am I giving miss information?????

FWD is Front wheel drive
AWD is All Wheel Drive

6 or 7 bolt crank, will also tell you what CLUTCH you need to buy or oil pan

I would have to assume since your vehicle was made after 1992 that the 4g63 engine used in your car is the same as every 7-bolt from 1995-1999 in every eclipse turbo model. Either way, any 4g63T you find that is in a car past 1995 will drop right in to your car.
