GH Sigma Wagon in tassie

So, In April i regretfully sold my A53 Colt Galant. I had a Datsun 720 Ute then a AE93 SX Corolla with a 4AGE in it. While i had the Corolla i felt like i had to get back into a "Bitsamissin" so the hunt was on. I Found a decent GE SE Sedan but old mates sales tactic didn't work on me. Abo...

Re: Mitsubishi Colt Galant A53, revived thread!

So, between September last year and August this year, it was mostly driven a few things changed. But in early August, dad killed it. ran the motor out of coolant and baked itself.

4G52 Astron into A53 Galant (GA/GB)

Well, recently i brought a GE SE Sigma as it has a good 4G52 in it. I've done a 4G52 into a GD Galant before and have found it is a nice all rounder engine. Now i plan to use the 4G52 in my A53 Colt Galant (Similar to GA/GB). I know i will need to extend the wiring to run the alternator, run a therm...
