    Subframe bushing material

    So I’m starting a little project for the AWD swap after a long hiatus but my question is, why are all solid mount subframe bushings aluminum instead of steel? I believe my little project is going to require me to use steel for the threads but wasn’t sure why nobody used it. I can’t find anything...

    2G Drip Moldings

    I was thinking about sanding mine down and trying to blend into the rubber edge then using a rubber coating, either dip or spray them until built up to roughly factory mil thickness. I was thinking the same material for under coat may work? I’m not sure how to get it smooth though… that’s where...

    Rod suggestions for build

    I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’m having a hard time searching here. I know I’ve came across threads on piston and rod setups but the search engine is weird on my phone or something. With that being said, I was going to ask opinion on weather or not the Manley I beams for the 6 bolt with...

    Spyder No start issue

    Annnddd that’s a wrap.. turns out I had two bad from stock cam position sensors so third time replacing was a charm. Got a new starter, fuel injectors, fuel pump, negative and ground cables in the process but she’s up and running finally. Thanks for the help all.

    Spyder No start issue

    Alright... so my BMW is about to be done and I’m starting back on the GS Spyder to get it running. Ended up changing the starter and fuel pump and it now cranks and starts but is still dying. I checked the voltage at the fuel pump plug (black wire blue stripe) and am only getting 0.028 volts. Am...

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    Unfortunately my progress has slowed, I ended up buying a 435i and doing a bunch of stuff to it so now that it’s done, I’m going to start back on the Eclipse hopefully this coming week!

    2G Block surface

    From a logical standpoint that’s too small to worry about. From a piece of mind standpoint, if you already have the block out, it’s pretty cheap to resurface at a machine shop

    Spyder No start issue

    Yeah Im gonna get er done today as soon as I figure out how to do it lol. Wiring diagrams are my weakness but looks like I better start learning haha

    Spyder No start issue

    Well when I got hole today, it fired right up as normal and was running fine, I let it warm up, shut it off and started fine again, but on the third time, it was a no go. It’s as if it has a problem only after being warmed up. And after letting it sit and cool down it’s back to normal operation...

    Spyder No start issue

    Thanks for the input! With your mod, when you say “make these three connections” do you literally just remove the module and connect all three wires together or?

    Spyder No start issue

    And I spoke too soon. Started putting the interior and ECU in, got everything hooked up and the stupid p0340 code came back as it died. Checked my battery connections and they seem good but I’m guessing it’s somewhere else
  12. brettsvn

    Spyder No start issue

    Possibly man. I put it all back together and it fired right up with the new injectors it’s back to running smooth... idk, hopefully the problem doesn’t come back. I checked the grounds and cleaned them and made sure they were tight but maybe I missed something somewhere along the way.. then...

    Spyder No start issue

    I have a 99 spyder GS automatic (4g64) and was originally throwing quite a few codes including one for injector circuit (had a bad injector), misfire same cylinder as injector (pretty obvious if an injector is bad), p0125 (coolant sensor I believe), a p01750 (shift solenoid), and a p0340 (cas?)...

    New 2G AWD Spyder build

    Yeah Spyderdrifter pretty much hit the nail on the head. You have to remove the drive shaft carriers and exhaust hangers, heat shield etc. I’m going to tackle the rear subframe different than most of the swaps just to try a new way and hopefully it works out (we will find out pretty soon here...

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    That’s definitely a possibility. I’m just worried about the trans and diff. I know the 2.4 setups are much more torquey and can brake those more easily than the 2.0 setups. I was reading Jacks Transmission thread on the 7 bolt with the big rod setup machined down for tighter tolerance, but...

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    Hahah, oh no, I wouldn’t do that to a stock 4g64. I have my choice of a 6 bolt 4g63, a 7 bolt 4g63 and I’ve been recently debating going with the 4g64 bottom 7 bolt 4g63 head (the head is fully built and just about done with GSC S2, port and polish, bee hives, kiggly HLA, etc etc.). I’m also...

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    I have a GS spyder it will be going into so non turbo. But reading back on it I can’t find anything on the front subframe... I must be smoking something. I could have swore I saw something about using the back subframe bolts on the front subframe and swapping them but I guess I was wrong about that!

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    Gotcha.. with that being said, is it the same for the front subframe or do those share the same bolt locations?
  21. brettsvn

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    Son of a bee sting. I thought the only reason was to drop the longer bolt from the same location. With that being said, it will make it a bit easier but you’d still have to go I. From the top for the FWD location... gotcha! Well... we shall see how it comes out and if I can come up with...

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    If I understand what you’re saying correctly, you’re talking about on the bottom of the subframe? Because all mounts are the same position correct? If they are, my idea should work. It would essentially make the subframe and the frame one piece still providing the needed stretch on the bolt. I...

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    Yeah, I’ve decided it’s definitely possible so if they aren’t interested in doing it, I’m going to convince one of the guys here at my works machine shop to make me a set to try out. We are aircraft oriented but I’m sure I convince someone to make them. Haha

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    I’ll for sure keep you in the loop if they agree to do so. I’m sure the more people who want them, the more inclined they’d be to make them!

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    When you say did it “that way” are you saying you did it by cutting into the frame and replacing the studs?

    2G 2G Spyder AWD swap

    So I’ve decided to take on the Spyder AWD swap and have read a bunch of swaps and started thinking to myself, “there must be a better way to deal with the subframe studs that need to be swapped in order to make the subframes bolt up’”. Every thread that I’ve seen cuts into the frame to add the...

    For Sale 7 bolt block

    Got a 7 bolt block that seems to be in pretty good shape. Got some typical rust in the water passages etc. but pistons seem to be in good shape, no visible signs of any damage and no excessive crank play or anything (could take measurements for anyone interested). I haven’t actually removed the...

    What’s up all!

    I definitely had to reset my password hahaThank you! And if money wasn’t an issue... I’d actually probably have a Supra lol

    What’s up all!

    I guess I registered on this forum quite some time ago but lurked from the shadows and sold my 97 spyder before really needing this. Well fast forward quite some years later and here I am with a 95 GSX project and am back to the forum to learn and search for parts. Hopefully I can contribute...
