Engine & tranny 94 to 96 swap question

[zukitrek]

Fix can I change my 94 engine to a 96 and also an A/T tranny for the same year, what else would need to change?

Thanks!!

[fixkick]

a record question for simple to ask and endless answers. huge issues.
but alas, many have asked.
the 96 engine fits all 16v cars. 92 to 98, (just the long block, not manifolds)
just ignore the CKP sensor there.
(pan/pump and CKP are new)
only 92-95 to 96 and newer is hard,wrong pan/pump. backwards is no issues.


here are more ways.

the 4sp is a 4speed. they did not change it at all.
it bolts in and plugs in
but 2wd and 4wd are not same from tail shaft housing back. (and maybe the shaft too)

Yes I forogot mine is a 2WD. Did they make 96's also 2WD?

[fixkick]

i forgot what was up. and yes all years have 2wd , at least to 2005. (google the cars specs, on newer) USA answer, there are 53 countries and 4 factories, and for SURE this varies world wide.. what country is yours, i forgot.
ok bad A/T , (ever try a new clean filter , yet?)
you'd pull a tranny before a filter?

2wd
16v
4doors ? (5 doors by Euro parlance)
issues with transmissions, all 4speed, all Trackicks, and vitara's

they are 2 rear prop shafts. (4doors only, more if looking at 2dr) at the rear.
there are 2 4speeds used, world wide.
for 2wd cars. and 4wd.
when buying a tranny, 4speed you need to LOOK at yours. first.
see photo below see red circle.?
there are 2 adaptors.
as you may not know Aisin makes this tranny with no tail and the car makers adds the tail for their APP.
so, there is the fast flare tail and the tapered flare...

this is what must be known, before you buy.






some 4speed in the wild have this.




same tranny but with all different , extensions and prop shafts.
never buy a tranny unseen with you naked eyes.

at the least.

starting in 2005 there is no answer. to 2wd
it varies by country
see that wiki on this vary complex subject.

"but a 3-door version is also available in some markets. In some markets the 3-door variant drops the "Grand" to be branded simply "Vitara". In some countries, including Chile the 5-door version is named "Grand Nomade"."

key word, SOME.

Nop filter is first. Im just looking at it as a far possibility. Local shops would cost about a little bit more than a new refurbished tranny. My country is Puerto Rico. I had a 94 sunbird that was slipping heavily and one local shop estimated repairs for around $2000 about three years ago. I'v seen refurbished trannys for have that price. But no tranny yet, I would do filter first. Too many improvised expenses are delaying it, but will do soon. Thanks for all the info though.

Well my tag is missing. Went to look for it friday but no where to be found. My car is a Fed according to the under the hood sticker I sent you a long time ago. Where else could I look for?
