    as of the EVO4 they fliped the motor over to run like the EVO8 here in the states. So the Evo 1-3 all have the tranny on the same side as the eclipse, and use the same motor(well the 6-bolts). But as of the EVO4 the motor was swaped around so that the tranny was on the opp side. I want to say if memory is correct, the tranny would be on the driver side for the EVO4+. Same reason the 97+ mirage can't use the eclipse motor as a bolt in, motor is on the wrong side.

    Hope that answer you question.

    A 3g eclipse (00-04) tranny will fit on an Evo8 motor, and it has been done. A guy in Cali swaped an Evo8 motor into his 8g Galant and used a 3g eclipse 5-speed tranny and everything works fine. The eclipse motor was fliped in 99 so it sits the same as the Evo motor

    hebeat me posting that!! But heres a idea get a kit from Road Race Engineering or you can get a 4g64 (7 bolt) bottom end from 99on eclipse or Galant,Weisco pistons,stock 4G64 rods which can hold 350hp safe,or some Eagle rods,complete Evo8 head(with injectors,inake mani,exhuast mani,cam gears,finally get a 94 Galant DOhc timing belt and bam you have a built 300hp+ OZ (depending on what size turbo you go with..a 16g is fine) The 6g72 motor from the 3g is way to heavy for your car not to add probaly too big!!
    Either way it goes boost that bitch.Dont listen to the haters on here telling you not to turbo your car.Especially 1439/2000 he thinks a VR4 Galant is the worlds fastest car!!!A 30 to 70%hp increase in any car is going to be fun as hell!Good luck.."Being different is good"
