  2. What number is my VR4?

    Message him directly, he'll probably see the notification there sooner than a thread post.
  3. Stronger axles while retaining 4WS?

    You can keep 4WS with a 4 bolt (after all, 90+ Evo Spec GVR4s had a 4 bolt and 4WS), you just need to utilize the stock gvr4 3 bolt housing. Swap the 4 bolt diff guts and everything into it. Mitsuturbo runs that exact setup and made a thread 13yrs ago on it. He's also resealed his 4ws in recent...
  4. Heater Core

    Being its a jdm 8g GVR4, they don't use VINs in Japan. What you think is a VIN, is just the chassis code and serial number. It also wouldn't matter calling up a North American Dealer either, the 8th gen VR4 was never included in their parts catalog.You would have to see if any regular 8th gen...
  5. 94' JDM 7th Gen VR4, new owner. NEED HELP FINDING PARTS! And anything else a 6A12tt owner should know?

    That part# cross references to a nissan/infinity g35 alternator, just a different pulley per application ofc. Its a 150A alternator, interesting.
  6. 94' JDM 7th Gen VR4, new owner. NEED HELP FINDING PARTS! And anything else a 6A12tt owner should know?

    That's the issue with an engine that was never available in North America. Parts availability... better off looking to Europe, Australia, or SE Asia for bits.Alternator draw, could be not enough grounds, maybe see about an upgrade if possible. Albeit, nothing on this forum will cater to your...
  7. Worth parting or try to get driving?

    He's in Cushing, Wisconsin lol, stated that on the 2nd page. The car is from Washington
  8. Direct fit LED lights for low beam.

    You gotta get higher end led bulbs if you do, like GTRlighting, morimoto etc (175-$200+), anything on amazon is the equivalent of ebay china knockoff garbage. All the cheap ones may appear brighter, but thats not how you measure light output on led lights, gotta go by the lux/lumen output...
  9. 94 eclipse transmission for 91 galant

    Not without the turbo flywheel and turbo clutch. the NA 4g63 fwd cars run a 215mm clutch vs turbo uses a 225mm clutch and bigger flywheel. Gear ratios are different. Turbo fwd FD: 4.153 vs a 1g fwd (6g galant is probably same as 1g fwd)
  10. Broke my rear passenger axel. Whats my options?

    Steering rack, sub frames, Front LCAs, rear UCAs/LCASs, non-abs prop valve kit. Wheel bearings, trailing arms, etc.
  11. Broke my rear passenger axel. Whats my options?

    4 bolts were 92+ DSMs (1990-92 JDM Evo Spec VR4s), only the front section of the driveshaft is different on a vr4 since obviously longer wheelbase.The spline count you're probably thinking of, is the tcase, which gvr4s are a mixed bag between some having 22 spline and some having 23 spline...
  12. Parking brake cables

    They were already on the map well before dsms and gvr4s, outside of the NA market. Mitsubishi was doing well in Rallies from the 60s-80s well before 6th gen galants, hell the 4g63t was already 7yrs old by the time dohc version came out in 87.Its like any of the japanese manufacturers, parts...
  13. what coils?

    He's not driving a E38/39A GVR4, he's got a 8th gen VR4, so suspension would be whatever those dudes typically run or what the 8g community runs.
  14. Differences between Galant models?

    If anything that firewall plate will tell you too immediately. Chassis code for USDM 6g GVR4 is E39A, E38A for GGSX. There were 3009 imported between 91-92, 9 unbadged (upwards of 30k built from 87-92 globally) The badges have no correlation to the VINs anyway, unless it was owned by someone on...

  16. Need help with my altenator pulley

    That's also a GM/Saturn alternator, not your stock alternator that's been relocated fyi, common upgrade on these cars.Could always remove alternator then massage out that area of the rail.
  17. Aftermarket Support

    When looking at Coilovers specifically, These Galants are 6th gen. The 1g/2g refers to the Eclipse/Talon/Laser generations.
  18. JDM VR-4. Speed Limiter.

    Didn't know that was a thing, but then again the USDM cars don't have such a thing.
  19. USDM bumpers to JDM bumpers E39A

    Pretty sure those sold off as soon as he listed them.But yeah, you need the L brackets and make sure the bumper is complete and not missing any piece of the skeleton. You will need to remove your usdm fogs as well and splice in the jdm fogs if it comes with them.
  20. Scirocco radiator question

    With some trimming the chase bays S13 tucked radiator is an option too, if you have AC deleted.
  21. Does anyone make a "new" engine/wiring harness for the gvr4

    Their customer service is a bit shaky though and some haven't had a great time with their quality on harnesses (plugs pinned incorrectly), but its still an option if you absolutely need one.
  22. Does anyone make a "new" engine/wiring harness for the gvr4

    Ohm-Racing does now apparently
  23. FS: rs vents

    Hood vent mounting location measurementsAlso note that on a non-vented hood, they will not sit flush (there will be a noticeable gap between the vent and the hood) as the area around the vents is recessed on the vented hoods.
  24. OEM parts?

    Most of those "Mitsubishi parts" sites are attached to dealers.However, you gotta remember these cars are approaching 30+yrs old now. When the oem supply on the shelf runs out, that's it for availability and that's already been happening more frequently now. Welcome to the world of "obsolete"...
  25. Production number??

    But there would be a serial number following the chassis code on the firewall, which is as close to a production number as he would get from the ~30k built lol.
  26. Exhaust Manifold 411(T3 to TD05h/TD05 adapter)

    your local dumpster will take it free of charge
  27. New owner, hello new friends

    either replace the caliper or rebuild it, most likely has a rip in the boot and moisture got inside behind the piston, causing things to rust.

  30. parking brake lever does literally nothing - replace cables?

    Quoting yubh8tn: Alright, thanks everybody who helped. Rockauto has new cables for us, $25 a side, so I'll do that when I rebuild the rear hubs and calipers. Hopefully I can soak the cables enough in the meantime to break them free...its actually misleading on Rockauto, as when you try to...
  31. parking brake lever does literally nothing - replace cables?

    most likely discontinued, they were becoming hard to find about 10yrs ago.
  32. Active Toe Eliminator Kit Extra Toe Out

    Which trailing arms? Dsm/gvr4 and 3000gt stuff are very different. The 3kgt arms will widen the rear tracking.
  33. What kind of Coilovers?

    Quote:Any new players bring a gvr4 specific option to market, thats not just another taiwanese manufacturer who can put together a whatever spring and cartridge with e39a mounting parts? As far as I know, nope. Just FEAL and they now make their own springs, so you need at least the...
  34. New to the scene w/ '91 Eagle 2000 GTX

    And blow through all his transmissions and transfer cases in the process? Yeah sure he can do that way, but it's not the proper way to do it, if you want it to last at all. We have enough issues as it is for the 500+ ft-lbs of torque level for AWD, now you want to send all that torque through...
  35. New to the scene w/ '91 Eagle 2000 GTX

    Many mechanical parts do interchange, but some things are specific to the Galant chassis of course, obviously a windshield will be specific to the Galants.AWD swap would require cutting of you trunk floor and welding in one from a AWD 2000GTX/Galant GSX or Galant VR-4, then needing the AWD...
  36. New to the scene w/ '91 Eagle 2000 GTX

    Or rather 1G dsms are basically 6g Galants, because that's the chassis they were derived from lol.The Eagle 2000GTX is just Chrylser Canada's rebadged version of the 87-93 Galant (89-93 here in the US), whether AWD or FWD.
  37. Looking into buying a galant vr4

    Quoting mk2davis:A common criticism of left hand drive cars is that it's harder to pass because your sitting on the wrong side. Just something to be aware of.Did you mean Right hand drive? LHD is what we have stateside.
  38. Looking into buying a galant vr4

    There's no real added benefit to the JDM cars other than they already have the bumpers that most of us buy anyway. I should probably go work on mine today
  39. Has it been done before ? 3000GT V6 TT engine in 91 or 92 Galant VR4

    Quoting BLUELIGHTSBABY: I have a hinkering to pick up a 91 3000gt VR4 TT engine and 5 speed transmission, T case, wiring harness and install into a 92 Galant VR4. Has this been done before?? It's just something diffent to do. I read somewhere on-line, mitsubishi had installed NA V6 engines in...
  40. Workshop Repair Manual

    lilEvo FSMsLilEvo has both FSMs available there ^ 89-93. Those are the ones I use.
  41. Fuel Tank to Fuel Rail line upgrade question - how much line do I need?

    I believe I bought the fuel line and fittings off Summit, adapter for the sending unit on extremepsi and whatever else I may have needed. Take a measuring tap and take a rough measurement of the overall length of where the sender location is on the tank to the front crossmember, then measure up...
  42. Speed density and IAT sensor wiring assistance

    Yeah you can just get either the maft sd adapter harness or the adapter harness off ecmlink's website. The aem ecu isn't a bad way to go either.
  43. Part number On JDM bumpers / Hood

    it has to be a 1990+ GVR4 in Evolution Spec (16g, 4 bolt lsd diff, bigger fmic etc). Those two items aren't exclusive to RSs, let alone not all RSs come in Evo Spec.
  44. Source for knock sensor

    And the Knock sensor MD131681 that is on the 1.6l C53A Mirage, is the same for E33A (with 4g63) and E38A Galants according to ASA. The DOHC 4g61 C63A mirages, however don't have anything available in ASA for a knock sensor...it's either been long time obsolete or they didn't have one.
  45. Source for knock sensor

    I believe he was referring to turbo and NA models of either cars sharing the part numbers between them, not manufacturers lol.
  46. Source for knock sensor

    ebay?
  47. Source for knock sensor

    Parts Geek They have one available, and I just ordered some other NLA parts from them for one of my other cars recently.
  48. Where to buy parts?

    Performance Partout is owned by NathanCrisman on this board, he has been helping keep our cars on the road for many years and more years to come.
  49. #461... Soon to be a real car again (again)

    Quote: generally you adjust bias towards the rear until you start getting rear lockup under hard braking, and then you adjust back towards the front a bit. It should result in getting the absolute maximum braking performance you can, since you're not under utilizing the rear. That's...
