    1gb 4g63 n/a coil pack relocation

    I modified a stock 1g coil pack mounting bracket to hang it off of the factory driver side engine mount. Since the mount is attached to the motor, the coil pack & bracket do not move independently from the motor itself. Factory spark plug wire lengths work in this location as well

    2.4 4G64 motor swap and build

    pull the manifold & look for oil... if in he head it is motor related. If oil is only in the turbine housing & downpipe then suspect the turbo shaft seals

    1G How much teardown to change flex plate?

    Downpipe, T-case, inspection cover, old flex plate bolts, PS axle, trans mounts (2g has 3), starter, trans to block bolts. I would then drop the trans out the bottom with a cherry picker. But you might also have to remove the fore/aft brackets from the trans to drop it (my 1g has 3 motor mounts...

    Help asap!! Kiggly 6 bollt in 2g kit

    IIRC, there was three distinct 'drops' that my TC made, before it was fully seated. -But that could also just be a 1G vs 2G trans thing

    Random Fuse/wire harness

    I recognize that 6 pin plug... it's from an old AudioVox all-in-one (aka el cheapo) alarm system... the siren housing also contained the alarm receiver / brain. You then wired all of the car connections through this harness (door pins, ignition, trunk pin, etc,etc).Your best bet would be to...

    2G W4A33 Auto Transmission Fluid

    Redline Synthetic High Temp Racing ATF here. It's decently priced, if you buy it in the gallon size, vs individual quarts:https://www.redlineoil.com/high-temp-atfI've been running this is the same trans now, for some 9 years now... and in a previously built (used) trans for some 12 years...

    Help asap!! Kiggly 6 bollt in 2g kit

    Because it's still binding with the starter removed, I don't suspect that it is a starter-related issue.It's hard to tell from the pics, but are you sure that the torque converter is fully seated in the trans? From the looks of it, you've got a Sinister Racing TC in there... I had to rotate &...

    1G Auto swap update....

    Ah.. I'm running a relocated & re-wound Saturn Alt (thus the larger 120A fuse rating).As for the engine bay grounds, I took an different approach; I also ran a 0/1 run of a ground cable (grounding it along the way, wherever I could find a decent place to ground) with the front/rear 0/1 power...

    2G Coolant leak help

    On the trans side of the engine, there's not much that can leak. BUT I've seen pinhole leaks form in the turbo's 90* rubber coolant return line that returns it to the lower thermostat housing... just replaced one the other day

    1G 2g pan on 1g w4a33?

    It's my understanding that the 2g w4A33 pans have the same gasket / foot print, but are slightly deeper in the pan outer dimensions, thus increasing the ATF capacity slightly. By how much exactly though, I'm not sure
  12. BoostedTalonTS

    1G Auto swap update....

    A little late, but I would recommend that you run a larger than 2awg wire front to rear run. Then use fused distribution blocks on either end. 0/1 wire would be the minimum that I would use for any battery relocation project.I'd also stay away from using those AGU glass fused blocks. They...

    G4CS Timing belt

    That would explain why they were intentionally set off from the factory timing marks. I would be very careful when doing your timing belt, if you plan on reusing either of those 2.0L OEM cam gears.I'd mark the 2.0L gears current location @ TDC before removing the old timing belt... I'm...

    G4CS Timing belt

    I would guess so... but all of the 1g OEM cam gears that I've seen did not have anything stamped on them though
  15. BoostedTalonTS

    G4CS Timing belt

    No problem... just be sure that the gears that you've got on the car are in fact 2.0L DOHC gears first though.Since one of those was discontinued, you might be better off with adjustable cam gears. But then you'll need to degree the motor in order to set them up correctly... this is why I...

    G4CS Timing belt

    I've always used the OEM 4g64 DOHC Galant timing belt... not sure about any others thoughExtreme psi has that too:http://www.extremepsi.com/store/product.php?productid=20265&cat=865&page=1

    G4CS Timing belt

    Yep. Even the water pump. The BSEK is also the same, but if you already have that installed, then just leave it as it is & line up the rest of the timing marks
  18. BoostedTalonTS

    G4CS Timing belt

    If you're talking about OEM cam gears, then yes, it has to be off a 94/95 Galant 2.4L DOHC. That was the only year that they came out with that setup in the states, IIRC. Adjustable cam gears would also suffice, as long as you have a way of setting them up correctly.I went with the OEM 4g64...
  19. BoostedTalonTS

    G4CS Timing belt

    I wouldn't try to line the mounts up just yet... they could be offset in order to accommodate for the lack of 2.4L cam gears. I opted to run my 4g64 2.4L with the OEM timing belt & the 2.4L Galant DOHC cam gears. Both of them used to be available from www.extremepsi.com, but apparently one of...

    1G Auto transmission install help

    I ran into this as well, with the factory auto brackets + MT mounts in the F&R... I ended up using a small bottle jack to press against the subframe & the rear motor bracket to aid in clearance'ing the Saturn alt pulley to the subframe rail. I also ditched the OEM Saturn 5 or 6 ribbed alt pulley...

    1G Auto transmission install help

    Although this is true, I've found that using this lift point makes aligning the dowels more difficult. That is why I prefer my barrel strap method
  25. BoostedTalonTS

    1G Auto transmission install help

    I've found it beneficial to make use of an old barrel strap & a cherry picker to pull the trans up from the floor. This allows me to twist the trans backwards, towards the firewall roughly 15-20* to get both dowels to line up easier. There's a small straight edge on the lower, front of the w4a33...

    Resolved swap 4G37 for 4G63 n/t - wiring/harness

    It's not a connector, at the firewall location, but only a place where the harness passes through it... you will need to dig deeper to find where the harness terminates, at the various locations, with the majority of them being at the ECU and/or TCU (if equipped)

    That's from an old Clifford alarm system.

    There are a few tabs that secure an inner plastic retainer that's right behind the rubber grommet material... gently pry the rubber around from the back of this white plastic liner, and you'll see the clips that help hold it to the firewall. These clips push towards the center of the plug, to...

    1G what throttle body do I have? and 2g intake install tips

    That's a 1990 throttle body. You won't want to run that on a 91+ 1g without rewiring the ISC. The TPS will also need to be rewired in order to run it. If I were you, I would sell that one off & rebuild your 91+ 1g throttle body that you've got there. Steve over at www.throttlebodys.com might...

    1G Helical gears and OEM stubby shaft

    I had a Topline oil pump seize up on me, on a fresh 2.3L stroker build... it had helical cut gears, along with the stubby shaft (OEM 1.6L Mirage) BSEK in this build. I found similar wear markings, that (to me anyways) indicated a large amount of side loading of these gears was responsible for...

    1G 4g64 source vehicle ?

    I would think so, but I don't know for sure.As for the oil pan & pick up, the MightMax oil pan is deeper & has a different ramp angle that would interfere with our AWD transfer case, not to mention that there is no turbo oil drain tube provision in it. The oil pick up tube is also longer than...
