I do all the general maintenance and parts replacement on the Sigma myself. But for bigger jobs where I do have the means or the space to do the work I would call on one of my mates. Problem is everyone I know is retired or retiring. My best mate is a retired machanic and now does not like getting h...

Me either.. I thought mitsubishi in the USA were rebadged as Chrysler...

Heaps of tutorials on youtube

Brisbane to Melbourne $119 with tiger air. And a couple of tanks of petrol to drive it back

or better still, get a boost retard canister fitted to your stock dizzy at Scorcher Ignitions. http://performanceignition.com.au/

OOOO for an edit button. Obviously it should read "THIS GUY"

This guy shows you how to stop the annoying windscreen wiper chattering. He is a little bit rugged in his application of this method, but you will get the gist.

What timing did you run? Also what was your AFR? I would love to run 15psi but my auto box will die haha i will be getting a manual but until then....... Cheers All trial and error (guesswork ;-) ) With timing I went full retard , advancing a little bit at a time until I heard detonation, they went...

I ran my carby turbo at 15lb for a while. Makes a big difference but you have to get the timing and fuel mixture close to the mark.

Starts around 2000rpm. I tend to short shift around 3000/3500 so I do not know when it runs out of puff. Definitely goes harder,and has made the clutch slip a bigger problem.

Had some turbo bits laying about, and time to kill , so I decided to fit the .47 exhaust housing to the T04 and see what the result was. And the result is (as you would expect) that it comes on boost a lot sooner than the .63 ..and makes it heaps better car around town and at country speed limits. B...

So the turbo manifold is either a home made job or possibly a Starion 2.6 turbo. Does it have a wastegate attatched ?

and you also need some means of getting the engine oil to the turbo ..

Just make sure that you oil return fitting in the sump is above the oil level .

If only Randolf :( I have taken the turbo inlet crossover off this morning and there is more oil in the inlet than there is in the sump. 8o| Also heaps of shaft play in the turbine shaft but it has not made contact with the housing. I have some bits and pieces for the turbo laying about somewhere so...

Yes I have sort of resigned myself to the fact that it is the carbon seal. I will take the crossover off in the morning..only a 5 minute job. And I have noticed that the oil is very dirty, only changed it last week and already it looks black. In the grand scheme of things putting a new carbon seal i...

http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/922/hOtM4x.jpg This has me stumped. My Sigma has been running great and trouble free for years. The timing chain was getting a bit rattly so I fitted a new pump, chains and sprockets. Rattle gone. Not long after ( I am putting this down to coincidence) I ...

Thanks for the reply. On one of the old forums there was a guy selling white faceplate kits for Scorpion instrument clusters and I thought that someone on this site may have been around back then and did the faceplate changover.
Only one way to find out

I want to swap over my speedo so that I have a working trip meter. The replacement speedo has a different coloured face plate . To replace the faceplate, first I have to remove the speedo needle. Lots of different methods on youtube, but this one looks the easiest. Not sure if this is appropriate me...

Actually those TRX rims are still current on Gumtree ..$500.00

Back in the day I was going to chase up a set of Nissan TRX rims for my wagon. I thought they would look pretty good painted up. (These were on Gumtree recently) I initially fitted up a set of Starion mags, then went to pepperpots, then to turbo rims, then back to pepperpots. http://imagizer.imagesh...

I think basicly any 80,s RWD Jap with the same stud pattern. Sigma , Starion , Nissan RTX , Corolla , Mazda , I have even seen a Golf with pepperpots so presumably Golf rims will fit Scorpions.

I was told to wind it in reverse. So you are actually filling the pickup with oil. Then cranked it over for a couple of seconds and had oil pressure.

I am open to suggestions. An old school mechanic friend recommends packing the pump with Vaseline. I remember when I got the engine back from the machine shop when I had recoed..that I spent 20 minutes winding it over with a ring spanner on the crank bolt, while squirting oil through the oil pressur...

maybe your electric fuel pump is putting out too much pressure. Shouldn't imaging you would need any more that 4lb pressure for a couple of carbies. A good indication is if it loads up with fuel at idle.

You can still use a Magna block but then you would have to chase up a Sigma GN motor to get the timing cover and sump and even the cam. ( GN is the only model that has the necessary parts to turn the Magna engine into a RWD engine) And you also will need a transmission and flywheel from a 2 litre. A...

I did not change over the brake master cylinder when I put GK discs on the back of the wagon. Every year I have to get the brakes tested on a platronic drive on brake tester..and the balance is perfect.

ha I thought so. Only see you for a split second. You were doing some rather hectic steering corrections Lol

Hey Chris ..do you own this a Lancer ???

I had a W55 behind a 5 litre in a One Tonner and the bellhousing came from Dellow.
