Hello, I just started to Part out my 92 TSI FWD, and put together #650/1000 before my child is born so i can shuttle him/her around in a dope car and let them pick up on mitsubishi Goodness, But on to my question I was wondering if i take te 5lug Hubs off of my FWD TSi will it work on my AWD for the GVR4, And does the 92 have the 4bolt rear. This is also my first GVR4. Thanks

No gvr4's came with a 4bolt
You need a 92-94 1g AWD to get the 4 bolt and any 1g AWD for the 5 lug hubs.

The front hubs are the same FWD or AWD DSM. the front knuckles off a FWD will bolt up to a AWD but has a higher mounting point for the steering link/tie rod end. this is a good thing if you are going to lower the VR4 at all, as it will correct the steering geometry to some degree & help reduce "Bump steer".

Ok,
My car is lowered with HR springs and Koni adjustable yellow shocks and the front struts were cut a couple of inches by Muliner @ RoadraceEngeneering. So how does that set up work in my situation. I too am looking to switch out 4 lug to 5 bolt asap.

Is there a difference between turbo and non turbo FWD front hubs?

The spring/shock combo have no effect on switching to 5 lug hubs. Here is all you need to do the swap

Front



Rear
