Only engine that will fit good, and runs right is the 4g62 that is in the gsx and gst. &nbsp;I'd sel it and buy one, it will be less costly.

I just swapped the 1.8 in my 92 Eclipse for a 2.0 &nbsp;and had to rewire the engine bay and that car has been sitting inmy garage for three and a half months now and I'm still having problems with the wiring. &nbsp;It's not worth the work it takes to do it you'd be better off just buying a car with that engine already in it.

I've said before and I'll say again, &nbsp;It is foolish to swap a turbo enging in an older eclipse unless significant exterior/electronics accessories has been added, &nbsp;however if you are set of swapping the engine, &nbsp;the only one that is easy enough is the 4g63 &nbsp;found on the GST and the GSX's, &nbsp;however &nbsp;if you dont want to buy new axles and such get the GST version. &nbsp;it already has the 2wd ECU and such. &nbsp;good luck. &nbsp;Oh yeah, &nbsp;and go with the 2.0.
