PS: oh... & please read past some of my young & nieave (<spelling???) comments

yes, thats where they crack because of the high temp difference with coolant on one side and a red hot exhaust on the other. if they had a heat shield there i dont think they would crack, or if they had a thicker cast like the later models they are better aswell Hmm... so the shield that is bolted ...

Webby, yes using flat top pistons in an Astron I bottom end would restore the compression back to stock Magna, like around 8.5 to 9 I think Webby is also referring to an astron 1 head (don't know why? ;) ). In that case you would end up with some rather high compression... not sure exactly, but wou...

Interesting, never heard of them being stated for a cold engine before

:twisted: haha bloody mad isn't it... Not sure when it was done, unfortunately, only have a scan of the article (from Hot4's), but would love to get my hands on the origonal copy! Wouldn't guess it... but it produces over 300hp apparently, running at 12psi :shock: ...so tempting... turbo does make m...

I think there own wording really sums the product up the best...

This also prevents wasted electrical flow during times of pull

Lovin' it TR11KY

Will be re-reading this a few times.

So you had them reset the angle the eyes sit at? hmm... would you be able to post up a couple pic's?

Cheers.

Nice

Curiosity... but what injectors are in there at the moment?

Hey mate, Welcome to the site. Well thankfully the GK rear end will not fit the GE (so leave the disc's there for your son!) You should be able to slot the complete rear end from a GH scorpion into your GE, giving you disc's & a far better diff ;) (if you do take that route, don't forget the han...

VERY nice man.

Not a bad idea with the cooler piping too Looks like the piping will clear chassis everywhere will it?

Nick.

Yeah the interior is mint on that (worth the $200 alone really lol) Hmm... the 8th or 9th pic down is a bit disturbing though. As said in another thread, good chance that rust has gone into the main chassis too :? Unfortunately it's a trait of the earlier mitsu's :( (touch wood, I've been rather luc...

No its not true over steer is fun

Hmm, pretty sure arura do sway bars too by the looks, http://www.industrialsprings.com.au/antiroll.htm

Nick.

if the rust on the panels is 'quite bad' might want to remove them and have a look at the chassis rails... unfortunatly, stuff seems to build up there pretty bad over the years and has no where to go

Cheers for the replies guys...

Yeah, after some more thinking have shied away from the idea of it; too much hassle, and the cost of a new unit, its not worth it.

As above... wise move

Although... if your planning to be putting a new engine in anyway? just buy an auto 2.6? it will be the same amount of work to put the 2lt in?

Whats wrong with the 2lt at the moment? few too many km's over a rebuild?

Nick.

hav fun installing the clutch pedal :lol: i did one in my wb ute, from 3 spd on tree to 4 in floor. = never again! haha Serves you right for owning one :P :lol: Nar there not that bad in a GH (or galant), just unbolt old, bolt in new. Spline on gear box will be different, as well as the tail shaft ...

Doesn't look too bad?

Was that the one on ebay by anychance?

Hmm... might want to remove that windscreen & deal with the rust sooner than later too mate.

Good luck.
Nick.

Its a saturn? they don't have them

Is the cross over pipe lined with oil?

Interesting set up too with the butterfly in front of the turbo.

So the smoke is worst when your de-accelerating yeah?

Nick.

As above, what are you wanting it for? If its a GH its probably going to be a 2lt in front of the auto. Brought my GH in that form - 2lt auto. don't expect it to be quick :lol: nice and comfortable though. difference from the galant range though, they have a FAR better suspension set up, no bloody l...

Hey all, Just wondering if anyone has had much to do with an LT-8? Reason i ask... have been offered one at a fairly decent price, but it has come from a totally different vehicle, (laser TX3 for what its worth). I've heard conflicting things (as you always do lol) about microtechs and their compati...

3: I would look at getting a spacer plate made to go between the carb and the manifold, and run the fogger nozzle there (before the manifold) as there isnt much room in the base of the manifold, and you might get some fuel/nos pool in the base of the manifold, a spacer obviously will give more room...

That is tyre smoke right

Back to a previous post... if you want to confirm a buggered shock, take it out and then bounce the car, see if it still squeeks (don't drive it like this though of course...). & no, can't buy the rubber for shocks... if thats stuffed, then no doubt so is the shocker ;) Whats wrong with your bat...

Not really.

Your after the GH struts (sigma/scorp). the later model sigma's had a different bolts pattern on the strut tower & ball joint is different also.

Nick.

According to a magazine article... looks like it ;)

Springs... Aurora is probably the only one who will make up leaf suspension.

The Galants (as im sure you would know...) run a leaf rear end, where the sigma's have a much better idea... coil springs :lol: Just had a look at my GD's old rear end (conveniently next to me lol). unbolts at the front by the looks, so you should be able to unbolt the complete centres & swap th...
