Re: 1g 2g swap
I am in the same spot. I just got a 91 tsi awd trubo and want to take the engine out and put it into my 95 tsi fwd after it is built up. I just wanted to see some replys also here. I was also seeing if there is anyone that knows if the rolling chassie is worth anything or if anyone is interested. Also if anyone has any links to this process post them as well.

Nope, It'll never fit. The 2g's are designed for a 2.0 4g63 and the 1g's are designed for a...ah...2.0 4g63...hrm, wait, maybe you're on to something here...
o you Seriously though, are you talking about motor, trans, etc, or what? |
Re: 1g 2g swap
Well, its my buddies car. im pretty sure that the 1g tranny wont bolt up... :/ but i found a site that kind of helps out a little bit. http://www.roadraceengineering.com/1gcasin2g.htm
However im still not sure if anyone has done a 1g rear end w/ axles in a 2g, or if it would be any better, i dont know a whole lot about 2g's in general. |

wait, i take that back... here's the link..

Re: 1g 2g swap
Bolting the motor in is not a problem, if you have a 2G transmission. 3 of the 4 motor mounts are on the tranny on the 2G cars, while 3 of the 4 motor mounts are on the motor in the 1Gs. Running a 2G tranny in a 1G car also isn't too hard, since you just don't use 2 of the 2G tranny mounts. I don't know about going the other way around.
The rear end setups are much different on the 2G versus 1G. There wouldn't be much use to trying to swap a 1G rear end into a 2G. The 2G rear ends and axles aren't too bad as far as breakage. The most common problem with higher HP 2Gs is the 2G rear end actually breaking thier mounting ears and becoming a Woodbridge Parachute. |

The first thing to try would be solid mounts and then possibly some extra mounts for safety. Marco went to a complete chrome-moly rear subframe in his car after he ejected his pumpkin at the DSM Shootout a couple years ago.

Re: 1g 2g swap
Where can one purchase some solid mounts?
