It will line up easy .......the 1.8 4 is bolt for bolt, suspension is bolt for bolt. But your stance will change as the suspension footprint is different. The V6 is bolt for bolt except for the alternator needs a custom bracket and you will have 200hp.

1.8 gs fto engine...works exact in d ck lancer just wire up and drive,only modification is d axels for d fto engine is longer by 2mm(it will still work but when u turning corners u will hear a rubbing noise),so u have to use back d ck axels.
SCHOLARS is right 4g93t smaller and faster than v6............
