It’s best to remove the driver side engine Mount and slowly adjust the height of the engine where you can slide I. The smaller pulley the. The bigger one on top. I’ve been I. That position a lot with my old 2g and that’s what I did every time.Remove the four mounting solutions on the motor...

Thanks for the info bro. I am going to upload a video in the morning just to keep you guys posted.

I grinded out the lower ring at the bottom, but i will do more tomorrow

It was an OEM replacement, I trimmed a little of the plastic around the pulley and it seemed to quiet down. I will grind down the rest tomorrow and make another soundclip. I am currently uploading a video to youtube because i found a littl squeak noise on the timing side.This is from the auto...

Yes three pulley is a direct o.e.m. replacement. Only thing different is there are more holes on front of it than the old one.

Sorry man it was storming hardcore last night so I went to sleep I saw a little chunk missing on the cover abs trimmed out the bottom. I checked the area around the belts and saw nothing. I will start it in a little

True bro. I'll post when I get off from work.

I checked for tools but I will do again. Lets say all of that comes out fine, what else should inlook for? I

Whenever you try to turn the motor by bumping the starter it went make that noise. When you turn by hand it went either.

will do bro. Should itry to start it without the belts to see if I still hear it?

By 5th hole, I hope you mean the tiny one. If so yes I lined it up perfeCtly. No I didn't touch a single timing cover bolt.

Yes this was the only thing I did the the motor. Its all stock.If so how Would you adjust it, I have never removed the timing cover.

So I ran across a problem after I installed my new Harmonic Balancer/Crank Pulley. When I started the car, I heard a knocking noise then immediately turned off my car. Before the install I never have heard this noise, so I was wondering if this could be one of the balance shafts? The lower...

I missed one of the belts lol, but I never removed the timing cover ever. When I get off of work I'll check the belts again, and make another video

Here is the video right here. I only removed the 4 12mm bolts on the crank. Sorry I didn't explain either, I fixed the belt not turning issue also

Yes i have made it, I never removed the timing cover js.

The pulley is all together (new one) . It's rubbing against the timing cover barely. I pushed it with a wrench when it was running, and it stopped the noise! I will upload a video.

I installed the new pulley already. I found out that the pulley was rubing against the timing cover, so I need to find out how to fix that.

Yeah I have the wheel off, and the plastic off, so I will be looking at it in the morning time. I am just frustrated that is it.

SO how is my motor cranking up and they are not turning? I will make a video tomorrow. It makes a loud tapping noise, sounds like it is in the valve cover.I am sorry, I already have installed the new one, and ran across this problem.

Well I spun everything by hand , and it seemed fine. I did come across that the crank was hard to turn. could the pulley be on too tight?

That key look like. What does

Good afternoon DSM family, i just recently changed out my old harmonic balancer, and the only problem I had was a broken lug nut stud :D. But I went to start it i heard a loud tapping noise from the top end. When I looked under the hood I noticed that none of the belts were spinning, could the...

Yeah I know that, so I thought buying there 245 socketed chip came with it?

So you can download ecmlink v3 of dsmlink.com Since it's the actual software, can I buy the v3 cable and a socketed ecu? Sorry I just didn't want to get flamed.

Can anyone kik, or text me so I can let you know whats going on, I n eed input.

Forgot to mention the chick I knew that drove a non turbo spyder lol. I just had surgery yesterday so, i'm slowly about to mod mine up.

I have a 2g gst spyder. I just graduated High school, but I had her since my sophomore year! It was a hand me down from my mom, which she bought it in 97! Lol i guess it runs in the family now :) .

Do you guys have any advice towards me getting a new clutch, downpipe, and turbo

Sorry guys I have been busy with all of the shopping. But the car is the 4g63 turbo model. I want to do a big 16g swap on the spyder. so this means I'll have to take off the internal Watergate if I'm correct.I'm looking to make 550 HP by my senior year. Remember I'm only a freshman lol.

So i am heading off to college this coming up tuesday, and will my my broken DSM :cry: . But i need honest opinions on the first steps to my first DSM build.The build would consist ofFmic short routed Apex N1 exhaust MBC Intake 75% 93 25%e85 Turbular Mani w o2 dump External...

My bad man. But yeah let me know how your ride runs with it though.

Hey post a link dude because I am searching for it.

Thanks alot bro! I'm going to try this out after this year of college. I need to get an new harmonic balancer. Do you think an exhaust, fmic, mbc, intake are a good first list?

So I have a question. I am starting a build but my dsm is pretty much stock. can i run 75 percent 93, and 25 percent e85? An e85 station is about 5 minutes away max.

Let it sit in the driveway another day, and watch it collect dust. :)

Recirc yo BOV bro, i had the same problem venting to the atmosphere dude. Less sound the better, oh yeah check your fmic couplers.:hellyeah:

I just searched this, and should be right.:tease:Thermal 3" Exhaust - 1G AWD & FWD DSM - 1G DSM Exhaust - 1G 90-94 - Exhaust - DSM Performance Parts | DSMparts.com

are you saying that link i posted helped you??? UHMMMM idk dude try going to your profile lol. I haven't been on this website in forever yo.:D

Sorry man I though that was going to help you with your problem. I'll keep researching around for you my friend.

To op this should help you alot my friend.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/drivetrain-tech/329920-95-tsi-awd-98-gsx-awd-parts-interchangable.html

That "yolo" part had me cracking up yo. Why don't you try to contact the guy who fabbed it?

What's up guys. I'm from Houston,Tx and about to graduate High School this week. I got my dsm from my mother # years ago. We have had it since 97, and i've loved it since i was a little boy. My drea, car is in my hands now, so know i can mod it up, and become an official dsm tuner.

^^^^ I agree with this guy here. Check the O2 for the backfiring man. I have accidentally switched wires, when doing my afr gauge. Then make sure your cam sensor isn't off some degrees.

To throw in my $0.02, I think a gold wrinkle will look sick.

I found this thread, i hope it helps you.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/273041-bucking.html

Whats up guys i am semi new to the DSM community. I got my dsm my freshman tear in highschool, and now im in my last week of my senior year! My mom handed me down this car, and she's had it since 97; with all original miles, and no break downs. I'm ready to join the DSM community.

That thing is nasty bro. I'll have a long way to go until I get there. But hey you have to start from the bottom! :)

You should try to get the rust off, and turning down you boost. My spyder bucked like yours. I fixed this by fixing my vacuum source. Check all the piping and couplers for leaks or loose clamps.

Mke sure you prime the system. Of cycle the key a couple times, so the fuel pump can get the gas to the rail, then start it. It may take up to 5 secs.
