Hi, I'm Ais, 29, lives in Jakarta - Indonesia. I love my Mirage very much. these cars, in Indonesia, they named them lancer. Well, here are some details:
model type: Mitsubishi Lancer (Mirage) 1985
Engine type: 4G33 carburettor, 1.4L, SOHC 8 valves
Tranny: no Idea, but it is manual.
body type: 5-door hatchback
Some worked I'd done to the engine, and it ran 15 sec. in 1/4 mile.
All stock. no hi-po parts available for this type of engine. just some portings here and there.
I read all about the swapping things in the net. Kinda interested, so I bought a 4G67 (1.8L, DOHC) in a local junkyard. But a pitty was that the engine was not a complete stuff, you know... no harnesses and ecu. so when I asked a mitsubishi store for the harnesses and ecu..wow... those parts just beyond the reach of my pocket. So I have this crazy Idea, Why not I change the fuel system into a four-barrel side draft system ( I used two mikuni 45). I also swap the cranck sensor (u know, the one behind the camshaft) with another car's distributor ( I used a Daihatsu CDI distributor with a little modification). Others I think I still can use.
Still in progress though, donno if the tranny will fit or not.
I searched all the net, about swapping the 4G61/ 4G63 into the 87 mirage, like the one in
http://www.insaneimportperformance.com but there wasn't any detailed tech. hmmm I wonder....
All I'm asking is, is there any modifications with the mounting to swap a 4G67 into a 85-87 mirage ? Or maybe other modification needed? Please give any technical advise
