Lets post a few updates

next thing for deal with was suspension and handling


Suspension was original, but all springs are worn out and old, rear shocks were leaking, and also the car was too soft to handle that kind of power so i upgrade it to much better level

Ive bought Cusco street ZERO coilovers for Lancer EVO III

car handles much much better in corners, over the holes its almost like stock suspension, over the speed bumps you have to be little gentle , overall very good coilover



Also got the powerflex camber bolts as the car sits little lower now



Got new oem bumper indicator lens



Then the next problem was grip, i had only 2 and a half years old tyres but they didnt have grip at all

So i bought new tyres Continental Contisportcontact 5 215/45/17, also as I will upgrade the brakes i need new wheels that are the same dimensions (17" , 7J , ET40) but with flatter spokes
that means more space for bigger brake calipers, luckily i found Superleggeras which are 4kg lighter than previous wheels EACH! and also they have 1,5cm more space for brake calipers



Cleaned up the wheels, waxed them, got new central rings 67,1mm and new lug nuts



And ready to fit on a car



Results are awesome, lighter steering wheel (as each wheel is lighter for 4kg), and much more grip, which allows me to run full boost in second gear afer 5000rpm




Also getting the parts for next work

new tie rods, new tie rod ends, new boots, new front bearings, new CV joints

Mint!

Next update, got the brakes, 4pot brembos with braided steel lines and 320mm discs



redrilled discs to 4x114,3 and test fit, it fills up the 17" nicely



got new front bearing in, and also polyurethane on arms





Custom made heavier springs for trunk opening, as the factory didnt design it for trunk spoiler, now the trunk hood sits up alone



Another gearbox from 2.4 Galant is in with lower miles on it

also installed new OEM shaft seals



new clutch disk material



also new braided steel line for the slave clutch cylinder, you can see how worn out is the old one



and new slave clutch cylinder

loving the work keep it up

Disassembled front subframe



Some new parts



Took out the bushings front front subframe, they were in really bad condition, as you can see on the picture, new oem ones are ready to pop in



also new stoppers





New gasket for fuel sender unit



New grommet for hood pin



Then i have to install new seals in the steering rack, and also new rod ties, rod tie ends and new boots






New boot for steering rack




Dont have picture when shafts were finished, but painted them to OEM colour



Painted brackets for front subframe



Installed and painted slave clutch cylinder



Custom made full rubber front engine mount



Polyurethane SuperPro bush on sway bar



Finally made an adapter for EVO ISC to DSM wire installation

Glad to see you still putting updates here for us to see.

You must have a good supply for parts. You seem to be able to find plenty of them.

Dave...

Well forums are pretty dead, i know there is a lot of people still reading it, but no one is commenting


also no one is really surprised for such a work anymore, because they all think its easy as there are milions of projects all over the net



parts, yes, veeery veeery hard, everyday researching and asking people all over the world the get some pieces

i guess over time peoples taste change in what they like seeing, but i like the work your doing, i definately would like to own your car now hahaha. but its good to see activeness on the forum, some people are still active. once i get into my project itll be going up. but your doing a good job.

what are you plans for the future?

Tomica93, nobody likes too much talking during watching a porn movie. That's why everybody is quiet, they just enjoy to watch what you are doing :p

@blueTunder- hahahah nice one


@mstrrab1992- well you can never predict plans, but so far is finishing some details and fine tuning on cold

only bigger plan for now is A/C for the next year

Assembled complete front subframe, car really drives fantastic now, no sounds at all, and brakes, AWESOME, it has the stopping power now

also to make it a little softer i have made custom springs, front 5,6kg/mm and rears 3,5kg/mm



Calipers refurbed, new, bolts, paint and stickers, little before/after









It fitted very nice



New blood



At the geometry service






And got the fluidampr crank pulley & ARP bolts

I 100% enjoy your updates! This and the "Hulk" build are my first port of call after log in.

Agree with JimmyG's statement.. although the forum is pretty quiet, always good to see progress pics and effort that is still being put in.

100 plus posts and over 6000 views. Move along people nothing to see here. LOL

glad to read this guys, will be an update soon

Few more updates

new rear steel brake feed lines



installed fluidampr crank pulley, and also new Gates, alternator and power steering belt



looks good underneath now



Got brand new OEM front grille





Adjustable rear dampers came in, Cusco, newer dampers, and also they are longer for 1cm, which means a little more street friendly



Comparasion to a non adjustable CUSCO



and one nice pic from the petrol station

Looking good mate!

How the hell are you managing to find so many brand new OEM parts?!?!?!?!?!?!

magic hahah (money)

Little update, havent been working on a car. I was driving it for a change, done over 3000km over the last 3months

In front of Pula Arena



then i was on a oldtimer meeting, with my dad(green 4gen Galant), and a good friend of mine with his RalliArt version also in white. That was a pretty cool sight









And some better photos of mine car

Couple more updates

Crankpreassure was next thing to deal with, no more oil dip stick popping out and inlet on turbo is now dry

so I have made a custom valve cover, drilled a much larger hole, and weld bigger fitting, removed PCV valve and also put a bigger one, but left the thread in case i will want to return PCV

after that, professional coat was apllied




difference between holes



New oil Catch can and silicone hose





Then few shots from the sea and driving











Then got new silicone clear hose for washerfluid line, so I have replaced an old ugly one






Thats all for now

Next thing to deal with was the power windows switch.

First they started to fail on the main one (passanger window couldnt go up) and also letters worn out after years of using

First i have disassembled everything, cleaned up the contacts, and it all woreked again like a charm










Then i found a ultra rare JDM main power window switch that has Door Lock option on it and AUTO funstion for drivers window.
It was in Malaysia, and it is very very hard to communicate with them and in the end to get parts from

So i accepted a challenge of making a UNIQUE, only in the world, LHD main switch with AUTO power windows on drivers doors, and Door lock option



And finally received it after 2months




Next big problem was it was all for RHD (you cant put AUTO function on the left side) and also you need to use LHD plastic surround to fit properly
However plastic surround didnt have DOOR LOCKS sign


after days of researching, find up it wasnt a sticker on the buttons and plastic surround. It was printed with high quality colour that remains under usage of fingers
luckily i found one guy who was able to do this for me, so i have also refurbed buttons and plastic surround, also all other buttons on passanger doors




next thing about AUTO function. Mitsubishi Galant Sigma in USA had AUTO function on driver window as a LHD. luckily found one with broken plastic and cutted wires, but again seller didnt want to ship, so I had to find agents etc.
after 2more months finally item arrived






next problem was it didnt have DOOR LOCK, so i had to cut the JDM one and weld it with USA one





Next. all was working except AUTO function for driver window when it go UP.
Thing is, in the US there was a child proof law. so the button had some kind of restriction, and also 1wire was missing from the small control unit plate (white wire in the picture above was added).


When it all was solved , here is the final result



From 3very rare parts, I got 1 Unique with all functions working
Final result: astonishing
