96 tsi tranny to 96 eclipse gst

[demetrios aftias]

Does anyone know if a 96 tsi tranny will fit in a 96 eclipse gst.

[Dan Harshey]

tsi trans is AWD, gst trans is FWD, so no

[Shane Sawatzki]

tsi can be either FWD or AWD ... so if the TSi is a FWD then yes it should work

[Richard Clark]

From my understanding 2g TSI's are only AWD.

Nope, 2g Talons came in tsi trims (fwd) and tsi awd trims.

As long as it's not an awd tranny I can't see why it wouldn't work.

[Richard Clark]

Hmm, I have never seen a fwd turbo 2g talon forsale.

Or maybe it's because I have overlooked the fwd's

[Shane Sawatzki]

they do exist. 

[Jason Harwood]

They do not exist in canada

[John Hartman]

Lyles car is FWD turbo.

[Ryan Singh]

On a side note...
A lotta peeps think that tsi awd's never came in auto either, but they did.
I have one...but yeah, you guys laugh at it.

[Joliesa Lepp]

I know of at least two in my area that are fwd turbos.

And I see wayyy too many auto awds?!

Get a manual

[Ryan Singh]

I'll convert it sooner or later, when I can actually throw a couple grand at it and not miss it.
But for now, not really high on my priority list of "things to do".

[John Hartman]

meh, as a daily driver in traffic an auto with awd and turbo aint too shabby.  As my only car?  No, but as a second car or daily driver fo sho my ho!

Do a few minor mods, hold the brake with one foot, hit the gas with the other, wait for the lights to change and lift the brake foot.  Hold right foot floored for 11-13 seconds.  Simple.

never do a clutch, clutch fork, throwout bearing, clutch master, clutch slave, clutch line.  never miss a shift, never have to worry about bogging a launch, never have a heavy duty puck style clutch kill your tranny or axles.  NEVER have crankwalk.
