EVO engine swap to 3000 gt engine??
hey guys
my buddy is tryin to sell me his engine. The engine is of a 97 3000gt vr 4. It was recently built and can handle up to 1200 hp according to the mechanic. Its fully built with forged internals etc.
Now i know this is sort of a wierd question, but will/can that engine be put into my 06 IX mr. I know i will have to spend some money. Will it work with my tranny, be cost effective, will there be enough room for it???
anyone done a motor swap on their Evo??
Let me know please. Just trying to see if it is possible
Thanks

You shouln't do it! It would be much cheaper to build your 4g63! I doubt it will work with your tranny... I believe there is enough room as i have seen a V8 350 on one. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! MONEY TALKS!

that would be an interesting project.. but really, a 3kGT engine is a pain to work on already, with how much room is in the engine bay of 3kGT, farless and Evo... i would go w/ a rb26dett from a gtr instead.... if its a twin turbo 6 cyl you want.. that would be cool!
i def wouldnt hack up a evo 9 either... find a used 8 cheap... or just get a 3kgt vr4...
