Re: 4g63 g/box onto 4g52?

I could fit a 1991 4G63 DOHC non turbo to a KM132 of a Lancer LB Hatchback (Celeste) without problems. The only thing that you have to do is to take the flywheel and clutch of a 4G52 (different diameter of the center hole in the flywheel for the input shaft of the gearbox)... other info you can find...

Re: Radiator for an LC?

Maybe you could have yours overhauled, and if needed have it re-cored? You could have more waterchannels like that, enlarging the cooling surface like that...

Re: What is it worth?

I put new carpet in one of the mine a couple of years back. There are a couple of places in Sydney that do new carpets for them. I can't remember the company's name but they were in Lansvale in South west Sydney. Fitted really well and looked nice once done. This one? http://www.sibacarcarpets.com....

Re: Twin delortos 40s on a 4g52

had a DHLA 40 from an Alfa Romeo on my 4G32. Don't see what people like on them, they just use more fuel and i didn't notice any gains, besides more noise... I just swapped engine to a 4G63 twin Mikuni, sounds way better and more power as well.

info request on this LC hatchback

Hey guys

Someone saw this LC hatchback being posted on the web today. It was taken during the recent Mopar Day in Australia.

Does anyone know anything about it?

I noticed it has 5-lugs wheels front and rear.

Re: lancer lb/lc hatch front struts

Hi, The stock shocks are normally oil filled ones. You could try to replace the oil but the easier solution is to drain the oil and install strut inserts. I've done that in mine. As far as I can remember Sachs still have them. I'm not sure but the partnumber could be FI110075... Hope this helps... C...

From your description I would say it's a 4G63 SOHC (8 valve) engine. Found in Lancer Turbo, Starion and Saporro Turbo/Scorpion. ECI stands for Electronically Controlled Injection.
