Great pics of the meet cho4u2 :thumpsup: I bet there's plenty of people on here that would like to know where to get hold of these chin spoilers? http://i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h406/cho4u2/Mitsubishi%20Colt%20Club%20Thailand%20Meet/11745398_961891270545017_6879056615852177660_n_zpsst8jeyvd.jpg ...

A112H has pretty much got it all there :thumpsup: What model is the Scorpion? Don't the 5 speed's from the GH (or GE) come with the short extension housing on the gearbox? I thought it was only GJ (Sigma) onwards that had the longer extension? Is it also correct that the only difference between the ...

The diff housing from a Sigma will not fit into a Lancer diff housing (Lancer is 8 bolt, Sigma is 10 bolt). The whole diff housing itself wont bolt it without shortening and removing the old mounting brackets and fitting Lancer ones. If you're going to that much trouble Nissan Skyline R31 diff housi...

Superscan811 has pretty much said the same thing I'm thinking along the lines of. I was thinking auto choke adjustment and operation (for exactly the same reasons).


Dave...

That looks to fit pretty well.
Nice Job

Dave...

Yep thanks.
Just tried it. It works pretty well.
I also tried shellite (lighter fluid) I think the shellite works just that little bit quicker.

Workshop manual says SAE 90 gear oil.
I put 75 in mine.

Dave...

Just curious. Has anyone got a good answer on how to remove the non setting window sealant from the rear window openings? We've tried a few different solvents, but nothing that just gets it off easy (wax and grease remover, turps, kerosene, GP thinners to name just a few). I've tried google search, ...

Yep, keen to see more pics.
I assume you've done enough work prior to this that it will all fit together perfectly?

So next is the wiring harness?

Dave...

This might help you identify what you are looking at:
Wide or Narrow (Motor or gearbox)?

I hope this helps...

Dave...

Yep, it looks good.
My theory with stuff like that 'the more it looks like it came from the factory like that, the better'.

Dave...

That's the one thing I prefer in the gen 1 Galant's compared with the gen 2's (the removable section in the front radiator support panel).

Dave...

Yep, you're getting there.
How much clearance will you end up with between rear of motor and the firewall?

Videos. Sounds good

Glad to hear you've still been working on it.

Dave...

That's seriously unlucky Geoff.


Dave...

I had a similar issue with my wagon.
How tight is your steering?
I had overtightened the steering box trying to remove freeplay.
Backing the adjuster off and changing the steering box oil fixed it all. Now I still have no freeplay, but I the steering now re-centres.

It certainly sounds it.

Dave...

Yes, a short shifter location will fit in a factory 5 speed LC hatch gearstick hole.

Dave...

Well, from that pic, I know it's a Jap box,
has Astron 2 head,
has the shorter shifter location,

What 'I' can't tell from that pic. If it's wide or narrow block.

Question is, how long has it been out in the open like that?


Dave...

What box will you be running? Jap wide block 5 speeds have a larger spline than that on the narrow block (just change the front spline over). If the 2.6 and 5 speed are from an early GE/GH Sigma the box will have short shifter location (same as Lancer 5 speed). If the 2.6 and 5 speed are from a late...

Is this correct?

Sunrise Orange looks like it could be on the money...

Is this the same colour?

Is that the factory orange or something else?
Is it the one in that pic above?

Got a pic of it if it's something different?

Dave...

Orange is his favourite colour, I bet it's what he ends up running with. Saying that, anything is up for change. Budget will be the decider on most things with this build. Fact is, Ferg's doing it mostly himself. This is what's going on it the garage right now. https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net...

Welcome to the forum.

What sort of work is it going to need to get it back on the road?

Dave...

75wagon you should have built a bigger shed. I don't think it would matter, I think i'd fill whatever I built anyway. Still have my first car. My son has just got his L,s and is eyeing off the wagon to use as a car to learn in. Yep, you should get that wagon rego'd again for sure :thumpsup: Dave...

^This bloke... Long time member, first time poster. Welcome to the forum bud. Looks like a bit of a build ahead of you, do you have what it takes to get it there? :think: Enjoy Ferg, first cars are always the best, no others ever take there place in your heart. Good choice on your first ride and pro...

No point putting twin 45's on it, twin 40's would have less of a step down in throat sizing once you choke them down to 34mm.


I know that isn't a weber chart, but the information shouldn't be too far off the mark.

Dave.

All of the things you are changing or have changed IMO are nothing to do with how loud it is when it drives.
I'd put everything back the way you had it, and put a more restrictive muffler on it. Cheap and simple.
