Sorry mate missed that one sentence.

Still the question stands, Why a 6?

I don't get it. You want to pull your sigma off the road to do it up, but you want to replace it with a 6 cyl. Why does it have to have 6 cyls? Are you planning on keeping this car you buy after you do up the sigma, or is it just a make do till it's done? I would go and buy the cheapest roadworthy c...

Good news and bad news. I've decided not to buy it but my mate is instead. So one less car for me, but he assures me he's going to become a member of the site. This Sigma should be cruzin around West Syd as of Sunday. Hope you like the pics. http://i32.tinypic.com/2up47ww.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/...

Also for spray painting the car make sure you get a compressor which can flow enough for the spray gun. The best i found to suit the job at a decent price was the belt drive supercheap compressor but make sure you get it when it's on special. Prob cost about $500 but it will save so much hassle rat...

I was asked how much I spent. But I'm sure you could insure it for more, only problem is you'd probably have to pay a higher premium calculated on the risk level they are taking. I don't know how much would it cost to insure my galant for $20000? The temptation to try to get a pay out like that was ...

I had a datsun 1200 coupe too. A14 in mine imported rally 5 speed in it. It was pretty quick in the early 90's, (slow by todays standards). It had a habit of breaking things. 9 gearboxes (until I put the 5 speed in) 4 diffs 1 tailshaft uni 1 engine mount. I remember DATSEZY. Hot 4's car show. Doing ...

1. 1932 ford 3 window coupe
2. 1959 Holden FB wagon (lowered red, with white flash)
3. Evo 4,6,6.5,8,9,X (any of those will do as long as there black)
4. Lotus 7 (replica would do)
5. Meyers Manx

Speed doesn't really concern me, I just want something that turns heads.

The recaros in my galant are on the standard runners.
I used 2 original holes and had to redrill 4 more.
Recaros attach with 6 bolts not 4.

Just for interest. I'm with GIO. I've got vintage car insurance with them. Your car has to be over 31 years old to be eligible. You have no limitations on when you can drive your car (unlike NRMA) I have agreed value and I also have a disposal option (so I get to keep it if it gets smashed and they ...

If you'd have bought a TV earlier you wouldn't have any kids to worry about. lol.

Your method takes a lot of planning, but does seem very effective.
I like it.

I did a favour for a bloke at work a little while ago. Water pump on a 96 barina/ swift. you have to take the drivers wheel off, remove plastic panelling under the chassis rail. Drop the front right engine mount and lower the motor about 6 inches. remove bottom pulley. take off timing case undo alte...

They also came out on 1977 to '81 lancer hatchbacks.
On different wheels though.
1978 to 81 sigmas had the centres like those without the colt logos on them.

Here it is.

Can't say I'm too keen on the red interior. That interior is the original brown the coupes came with isn't it? It's just the lighting that makes it look a bit red surely? That looks a bit rusty too me, but closer inspection may reveal it to be better. I'd only pay enough to use it as a parts car it...

Just bought an 84 sigma 2 day, pick it up on the weekend.
162000 kms 1 owner 2.6 auto.
Only put out the front of the guy 5 doors down today.
Grandpa special.
I'll post the pics when I get it.
He was telling me traded a galant in to buy it.

makes sense I suppose...

I use a suction feed Iwata W87 spray gun.(bought it in 1993, cost $400 then) Good quality gear makes life a bit easier. If you haven't sprayed a car before I recommend staying away from metallics and opting for a solid colour. There is nothing special about how to put on that green, other then it's ...

Apprentice money does suck.
I know i was there once.
Stick with it, there's no rush. Do it once and do it right.

yeah,
Just like the 'Sandman' Holden Panelvans, Valiant made the 'Drifter'.
Shame it doesn't have the original paint scheme.
Does anyone remember what the Ford Panelvans were called.
The Escort vans were 'Sundowners'

Welcome mate.
How about some shots?

least yours has a tacho.....

Show us a photo.

That's a 4G32B?
It probably had a lot of pollution gear, have you had a look under the bonnet of an '89 colt to see where the pipes go?
Sorry best I can do without a picture.

yep

I've always preferred the GE to the GH instrument panels.

Mitsubishi seemed to keep most of there parts interchangeable in the older models so I'd be suprised if it didn't fit.

sounds like American terminology to me.
It does say that it is direct injection.
I would put money on it, that it's still electronic.
I could be wrong though, i've been wrong before.

just a few more shots, http://i28.tinypic.com/14mav5j.jpg http://i25.tinypic.com/148grcx.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/2nssz2r.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/jjbc0m.jpg http://i27.tinypic.com/2moz155.jpg http://i32.tinypic.com/2jb9n5.jpg http://i29.tinypic.com/2jgpl2.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/345j4eb.jpg ...

how about some pictures?
It took me awhile to work it out, (i'm only new to this sort of stuff) but give it ago, I'm sure we would all like to see your car.

That thing must really go.
any chance of seeing photos with the bonnet open?

What sort of things do you want to know?
I'm sure someone could help you, but probably not me, I don't know all that much about sigmas.

Sigmas Look good it black. Nice car.

Just checked out what I have. I've got 2 cams with 6 stamped in and 2 with no stamp at all. I've got the one in the car but couldn't be buggered pulling it out just to see what it is. Anyone got any ideas on who to contact about an off the shelf cam(possibly a no.2)? What should I pay for one? I hav...

Ah, you guys have cleared that up for me, thanx. That cam has no stamp in the end. don't know what it is? One of the motors I've got is out of a GB, that would most likely have a stamped no.? I'll pull them all out 2moro. Thanx again for the help. I've owned these things for years but never really d...
