Don't do it (it simply won't work). If you can duct some clean air from the front of the car directly towards your air filter it will be way better than the filter sucking hot air from inside the engine bay (you've seen it done - put the filter inside a shroud to keep it separate from the rest of t...

To answer your question simply, the intercooler won't work in a N/A application at all and the small electric fans do not flow anywhere near enough to be of any use at all. The intercooler only works on a turbo application because the compressed air out from the intake side of the turbo is much hott...

That would make sense a little about the GA's having the equipment as my GB is one of the first GB at a November 72 and has the tail lights with the extra hole. My car has a couple of cross over parts from the GA's as i guess that they just had spare parts left over and just chucked them on instead ...

I was tracking down some electrical gremlins with some headlights not working today and I decided to try to also work out why why hazard lights don't work. I checked a few different things and the switch seems to work as the indicators stop working when you pull the hazard light switch. So I try to ...

Have you considered getting a rapid prototype part to manufacture a mould for sand casting. If you designed up something in solidworks you might be able to get something reasonable. You'd just have to do a bit of thinking about the casting shrinkage etc.

If you take a look in the galant brochure section you can see some of the US ones showing a sedan, wagon, coupe and hardtop. It you look closely you can see a very small pillar there. The coupe was the budget model and the hardtop was the highest class.

I can probably include some more info to clear up any details. If you take a look at the information pdf of the parts manual which I put up of the Galant A51 to GC it gives the breakdown in writing of the vehicle compliance no. translation. http://astronsworld.dyndns.org/astron/viewtopic.php?f=14&am...

It looks to be a pretty good start to the project and we know you have the skills and patience to get it right. I know the wreckers you are referring to up in Brisbane here and I have a few pics of the galants and lancers on my computer and phone if you wanted me to PM them to you for a bit more det...

If you just ask for high tensile bolts and nuts then you would be fine. The there are different grades of high tensile bolts but I'm pretty sure there is only one two different grades of nuts, high tensile metric grade 8.8 and standard nuts. Also you need to measure the size of the holes which you a...

I'm pretty sure the Hyundai Lantra has the 1.8L equivalent of the 4g63 engine. The engine is basically a 4g62 engine from memory and the head will go onto a 4g63 engine but it just has smaller ports.

To convert to the GJ style mirrors you would need the window glass, mirror and associated trim bits and also the window glass runner. This would be at the very least. Unsure if it would all bolt in at all. Might even need the window winder mechanism too.

Does the kiggly racing crank trigger sensor eliminate the need for the CAS on the back of the head? I couldn't find a clear answer on if it just eliminates the TDC marker on the CAS or eliminates the need for it all together? Could you provide some insight on if it is a complete replacement for the ...

I don't know if this would be the right section for this topic but I'll go ahead with it anyway. I was just wondering how much interest there would be from people for an option to relocate the stock 4g63 DOHC Cam Angle Sensor from the back of the engine to allow for a much easier fit into Galants an...

Hey all. I know this might be a little late notice but the Classic Japanese Show N Shine is occurring again this Sunday. It's located at Earnshaw State College, at Banyo on the northside of Brisbane. http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=14828 It's a completely free event bu...

I'm not sure if this would be of any help top you but the ryco website has in their catalogue section where you can try to search for a particular filter from a set of dimensional ranges. http://www.rycofilters.com.au/catalogue/dimension I used it to find a filter for my GB as for some reason the st...

Yeah there was definately a 1.6L GK. The last of the sigma's to have the saturn. The chassis no should be gk3-m-41. It was basically the lowest vehicle of the range. The GN was the only model that didn't have the saturn engine at all.

Getting the heater core out is an absolute bitch of a job. I would personally prefer to pull out an engine then a heater core. If i remember correctly you have to pull out most of the dash and centre colsole to remove the core from the car. I remember some pretty bad bolts to get out which are right...

Factory option option I believe. Even the ID plate in the bay says 4G52. http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/247272_10150273621665336_507210335_9346497_8054220_n.jpg Yeah the US market got the 2L engine as an option on all models but you had to have an auto and boosted brakes to get it. ...

Excuse my ignorance but where is the sigma-galant facebook page. I tried to take a look for it and couldn't find anything that really seemed to be the right ones.

I've almost got that A51,GA,GB,GC Galant parts manual scanned in now so i should be able to get it uploaded as soon as i get the info from Astron Boy about how he would like me to do so.

I should have it all scanned in by the end of the weekend for people to upload hopefully.

Have you checked out the thread of the info I put online about the NZ Mitsubishi's? http://www.sigma-galant.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=7195 It appears that if going by the pattern then your model should be equivalent to our GK/ GN models but with the little differences which NZ vehicles had. Also ...

Another GA brochure to add to the collection. Funny thing is that the GA and GB brochures actually have many of the same photo's for the two different model for the small feature pics. http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk91/woops1234/IMG_0022.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk91/woops1234/IM...

I thought some people might be interested in some of the NZ Equilivalent of the Mitsubishi Models. I was given a copy of some Mitsubishi model info from NZ from a fellow forum member and i thought a few people may be interested. I know that there have been a few NZ members a bit confused about their...

The Sigma's in NZ have a different model No for pretty much every year. 1977-78 - YC (pretty much the same as our GE sigma) 1978 GN - Sigma Estate (GE wagon equivalent) 1979 GP - Sigma Estate (GE wagon equivalent) 1979-80 GQ Sigma (Similar to our GH) 1980 GQ Sigma GLX Estate (GH wagon Equivalent) 19...

Here's a close up pic of a brand new one I had previously but sold it to one of the members to replace his original one one. It was on a GE SE model and is similar to the ones on the valiant but just much smaller. http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk91/woops1234/Bonnetemblem-1.jpg http://www.pentas...

The super saloon was only available as a 2.6L 5 speed manual or 3 speed Auto and only came as a sedan variant. I haven't seen any brochures but the super saloon I've seen have the the dark and light brown and also the silver blue combo. I'm sure there are other colours but that's all I can remember ...

I think the best market for the engine wouldn't be Australia but more so the Japanese Market. They are willing to pay a fair bit more for history and quality then us. The last few second hand twin cam 4g32 engines which I have seen sell in Australia have been for about the $1000 to $2000 in think fr...

best bit is this new little piece found in auto-barn performance shops its a hose splitter pretty much you cut hose in half off the radiator fit the piece 2 hose clips doesnt leak like the copper wire jammed down the hose like the Davies Craig kit. I'm guessing that you are referring to something l...

Hit a snag today. The block is a wide block (330mm betwen the gearbox bolt holes) but it uses a narrow sump and timing cover. Just spoke to Cheater and he informed me that it's a GN wide block. Basically it's the same as the early Magna blocks, including the extra welch plugged hole at the rear of ...

Thanks for the info it is helped alot and will help heaps once I get to the wreckers. I called them today and they have a bunch of galant's and sigma's but he wasn't sure what he had exactly and said I should come and have a look. Going to a car show in that town in 20days with our burnout car a da...
