MY 2G motor is dead is this a blessing

[badtzracr]

well yeah my engine is dead what to do should i spend $1700 on another 2g or go for the !1 g swap please help gimme some pointers and some tips on doing the swap!!

If it was me I would do the swap. And I am sure you can find a 2G engine for way less than $1700.

Probably everyone will tell you to do a six bolt 4G63 swap, but I'm gonna be the odd man out and say do a 4G64 hybrid swap; you have a spyder which already is heavier and the extra torque of the 2.4l is a great addition.

If you want more info on the 4G64 swap, head over to www.dsmtalk.com there is a whole forum section dedicated to the swap.

And all that extra torque will let you spin through all 5 gears and get no traction.

dsmtalk.com is full of pricks... I wouldn't go there to save my life. They are all ####'s who feed off each other. das all i gotta say about that.

ok well all i want to know is if its ok to do the 6bolt and what are the advantages?

 

[blcknspo0ln]

6 bolt = little crank walk issues.. NUFF SAID, especially if you're going with a heavier clutch or alot of power

 

[badtzracr]

yeah i was on road race website i heard 7 bolts have the C-walk issue .... so whats the hp in the 6 bolt and how much hp can i squeeze out of it in stock trim

 

[blcknspo0ln]

the 6 bolt motor is capable of handling 450whp on stock internals. which is MORE than enough for 75% of tuners here

i'm not quit sure what you mean by stock trim but many have dipped into 12's with the 14b turbo and some race gas [supporting mods as well]

I myself would never take any 4g63 with stock internals past 350whp without first possessing the money to replace the motor.

very good point - but 350HP can really move. 6 bolts are the way to go. but if you want to do this right, you should find a six bold, build it up with your HP goal in mind and then swap it in. - my 2 cents bro.!

i agree with you although this doesnt belong here anyway, i would either do the 1g swap or the 64 hybrid

 

[97spydagst]

look for one at a junkyard wiht low miles got mine for 200(6bolt) with the turbo 14g so just look around stuff is out there

 

[saw wave analog]
