So trying to bolt on the transfer case to finish the auto swap, but the transfercase won't fit. It's almost as though the driveshaft is too long. All motor mounts fit smoothly, using an automatic passenger side mount with a prothane insert, a rear avid (billet) from my 5 speed (bolt slides in...
I've started a Facebook group to have a small friendly competition to find the top 10 fastest street cars in the GTA based on drag strip time slips.If you are interested in joining PM me your Facebook name and I'll add/invite you.
Does anyone know if the X brace at the rear of the spyder can be cut out and left out?I don't care about its handling performance, but my fuel cell will barely fit there wit it in place, and I'm getting a cage done for it come spring time.
I've been looking for a turbo to replace my Hx40 for the drag car and want to try out the larger BW turbos.My goal is to get at least a 150mph pass and will be shooting for about 850whp+ but would like to not have to go above 9.5k rpm at most.Does anyone have any experience with the...
So I am itching to get the car back on the road now that it's AWD, but, my DSS driveshaft is 3/4" too short. I welded the rear carrier bearing bracket according to where the DSS shaft ended, but didn't realize it was too short for the stock rear shaft to reach the differential.I've been...
So I just finished a 2 week job of rebuilding the engine/drive train and swapping it over into a new chassis. Did the first start and the RPM's wen't to 3000 RPM climbed a little, then died right after.What I've done:
-checked the ISC
-checked for vacuum leaksWhat I know:
-The ISC gasket I...
Just wanted to make a note about something I noticed during my last rebuild. I was comparing some 2g 7 bolt parts to 1g 7 bolt parts and noticed that the oil pickup tube is actually a little longer (closer to the bottom of the pan) with the 1G.I don't know if it would make a real difference...
Hey guys.Wanted to ask if anyone has ever used a 2G front case on a 1G 7-bolt block.From what I understand there are some minor differences such as the timing belt tensioner.Anyway, wanted to ask if anyone here has done it before and if so, how well it worked, if it did.
Hey guys.So I have a question that pertains to fuel settings with ecmlink on my 1G. I started modding the 1G and recently got to installing a 255, new -6 feed line (old one was very rusty) and a new OEM fuel filter to go along with my (over sized for the 1G, but am borrowing them from my 2G)...
So I wired the gauges from my 2G into my 1G, but after driving at night and turning the headlights on, the gauges shut off. They shut off whenever the side markers or headlight switch is turned on. Even at higher RPM's with little power draw, they only turn on when all exterior lights are set to...
In attempt to stop my idle surge, I checked for boost leaks, checking connections, and now replacing my exhaust tomorrow on my new 1G.Now, heres the odd part that I cant figure out. While sitting at a light with the blower motor going, headlights on and music playing, my idle was rock solid...
So, as I slowly collect parts for next summers build, I came across a local seller who has an evo 2 transmission and t-case on sale for a good price. The seller says that I can bolt up the evo transmission and t-case and it will work fine with my rear diff (which I am replacing with the TRE evo...
So, I decided to go on the highway to do some short pulls. While I am merging, I feel a loss of power going into third and a high pitched whistle. Pretty much sounds exactly like a ssqv dumping air, but doesn't stop. When I take a look at the log, I see link recorded 27 psi in first and...
After trying every listed method, my balljoint still spins with the nut and I've decided to cut it at the boot with my angle grinder tomorrow. Before I do, however, does anyone have any recommendations as to anything else I can try other than pushing up on the ball joint with a jack?
So today while going on my second drive with the car this year, I noticed that my Tach is not having a good time. At idle, it reads just above 0, yet link gives me a proper reading. While driving, the clutch will chatter when coasting, and if I disengage the transmission, the car often stalls...
So after 2 years of sitting the Talon is now driving. Only problem is, the front drivers side and rear passengers side struts make a clicking sound.I had someone watch the rear while driving, and apparently, the center bolt would go up and down when I went over bumps.CV boots are...
Hi,I have been putting off the install of the inner bearing for a while now as I have been swamped with both work and sleep. I was inspired to work on the car again, bolted a lot up and pushed this bearing in. It finally went in, however just as I pushed it in fully, the bearing split...
Hi,
Just wanted to know if anyone has any tips for removing and installing the inner balance shaft bearing. I got the timing belt side one out, but am having trouble with the tranny side one. I tried searching (might have missed what Im looking for as I was skimming through pages) but have had...
Hi,
This is my first build I'm doing and just wanted to ask if I have everything needed to assemble the engine (not including oil pump, machine work required and other supporting mods, but just so I can finally torque the head studs back on). Mainly just don't want to make another trip to the...
Hi,
I have searched and not found an answser to the question.How difficult is it to replace the crank seal on a 4G63? Reason for asking, is im looking at buying another Talon while the mid build beast is asleep.Thank You.
Hi,
Just wanted to ask if someone here knows what oil line this would be called. Leaking at the seams and is very rusty. Noticed it while replacing a bunch of parts for maintinance.Thank You,

Hi guys,
So today I was ready to buy a set of KW's for my AWD Talon, but then saw that they are only ment for FWD's. Just wanted to know if they would fit, and if I would need to ask for springs with different rates due to the weight difference.Thank You,
Stephan T.
Hi,
Sorry for asking someone to do this, but could someone PM a member on there for me (to PM him my email address)? I have tried to register and used my ISP's email address (i.e. [email protected]) but it wont let me register.If you don't mind, PM me here and I will send a link to his...
Hi,
Just picked up a 2G Talon TSI AWD, and after some driving, I noticed a strange rattle in 5th. Was worried 5th was about to leave me, but then opened the window, and it didn't sound like gringing gears. Looking underneath the car, I noticed (in low light) it seems as though the current...
Just wanted to say hi, awesome looking car, and sorry for bot taking the earlier turn as I'm new to driving a manual.I was in the talon right infront of you turning left.
