Well I have a new project on the go.
I recently picked up a 1992 Eagle Summit Wagon AWD project car. This car is also known as the "Mitsubishi Expo" in the states I think, or the Mitsubishi RVR overseas.
Anyways originally the car came with a SOHC 2.4L 4g64 engine. The previous owner (Kenta) swapped in a 1G DSM 6 bolt turbo engine with the 14b turbo The transmission is from a Galant Vr4 turbo. Im pretty sure the ratios with the VR4 tranny match up with the stock AWD summit rear end ratio (hopefully). He got everything almost done but ran into problems getting the engine running properly. For whatever reason the car would start, but not stay running. Now that I got the car I peeked under the dash at all the wiring and its pretty clustered and I dont really know where to start as he has a SAFC spliced into the wiring and shortened and extended wires all over the place. Because the previous owner shortend all the injector/TB wires for a magnus intake mani, and now it has a stock 1G intake mani, all the wires are too short. I figure since I should start from square one and install a spare 91-94 turbo DSM harness i have laying around and try and re-do all the wiring so I KNOW that its done right and installed properly.
If anyone knows any good information on these cars or wiring information or anything LET ME KNOW!! Currently im trying to find as much information that I can to help with the wiring issues.
I will keep this thread updated as I progress with the project. First thing is to get the engine running and the car movable under its own power. Then i can finish installing all the interior pieces and get everything put back together.
Here is some pics of the car
This shot is of the enginebay.
And the Interior (in disaray and need final assembly and wiring clean up.)
Ill keep you guys updated once i can get this thing running under its own power.

guess I should have read that a little closer.
Two questions: How is the tach signal different? What did you do to make the throttle work? My engine and harness are still out of the wagon but harness will be done today!
