Hi Guys,

Anyone know of any panels or bumpers for an LB Lancer in NZ? Mine has been sitting outside WAY to long and now that it goes is in need of some serious TLC!

Any help would be much appreciated!

May consider frieghting from Aussie depending on cost. Cheers.

Thanks guys. After just deciding to buy new instead of going to the wreckers for everything I found it was at least one or a mixture of: Clogged jets in carb. Faulty Coil. Faulty Vacuum advance. Incorrect Microfarrat rating on condenser on distributor. Now it purrs beautifully. Problem is now, After...

My advice mate, Modgies or Hotwires. You can never go wrong with either of these two....

Ok, So, I have now checked it over and: New carb changed over Checked for leaks on air lines, established that there is in fact spark at plugs new points, condenser compression test at 110psi on all cylinders timing belt correct valve clearances on rocker all good. Car will now start runs extremely ...

Well I eventually got sick of looking at it parked up and decided that after scratching my head for ages I am still not sure on cause. So to ensure the problem is fixed i will be installing: New Head & gaskets New Dizzy, cap, leads, plugs ect New Carbie (Possibly a webber DGAV if i can find the ...

When warm it stuggles to idle and will miss under accelleration.

And belt, timing seem ok although i am missing covers so doing it by 'feel'. will give it a recheck just in case

I have now completely overhauled dizzy redid points, leads, cleaned cap and rotor and it ran great,..... Yntil it warmed up. vaccum advance seemed a bit sticky tho. Is there a way to overhaul these?

Hi. I have an lb lancer which i recently had the head redone after sitting for a while. Although it idled ok it wouldnt accelerate and kept missing. After changing points it ran better for a bit but seems to keep arcing them out and they grt worse. Then it would idle, but after about 30 sec it would...

i also mated a 5 speed to my 4g32, and can confirm all you need to change is the gearbox mount. Although i needed to use my 4 speed selector bar thingee that mounts to clutch cable as it was modified and after 10k i lost 5th and reverse and when turning over by hand, it seized. i beleve something fe...

4g52? That is a 2ltr right? Is it a bolt in job? and whats been done to it? Cams etc. The 4g37 has incorect mountings on the block and wont take RWD mounts so i will have to use somethnig else.

I agree. It looks similar but by judging on that webpage id say id have to stick with the complete 4g37 setup. im thinking just reversing the thermostat housing and running a steel pipe past the head to the radiator. Then i just have the exhaust issue to deal with. That and finding a suitable clutch...

So i just got the motor and it turns out its a 4g37. Hmmmm. 1800cc is something i would definately be ok with. However, the thermostat is clearly on the wrong side, as i was told the 4g32 would be. However the exhaust manifold gasket looks very similar to mine. What would be the best method of modif...

Worst case scenario you may have to modify something fit. My friend and i did that once on my old daihatsu, using a newer daihatsu armature with the old cog and old housing. It looked dodgy as hell but it lasted longer than the car did ..........

And got to work taking the rust out of the front

This was the car i bought 2 years ago. Painted with a paint roller. So my faded V green botched paint job is still a step up. 1200cc 4g36. Ewwww.

And dave, as soon as i figure out how to post photos i will post pics of the initial 4g36-2 coversion, and pics of paint job (a lesson to all those who try to diy at home with inferior preperation or equiptment)

Thanks guys. Im probably just going to swap heads to make it fit should it give me too much hassles. Anything i should know about upgrading from the 4 speed box to a 5 speed. some people say it will bolt straight in but others say its a nightmare. I have a box from an ex lancer.

The 4g32 is a good upgrade, even using the 4 speed box 4g36 carb and exhaust there was a huge increase in power. Literally bolt in and turn key.

Hi all. H I have an LC lancer that ive had for 2 years now and have changed from the original 4g36 to a 4g32 setup. Unfortunately the motor now uses as much oil as petrol, so its time to replace it. however the only motor i can find is a fwd 4g32 from a tredia. Aside from exhaust stud pattern differ...
