lol guys, ok I will be selling the motor. Only once the new motor is in and i dont need anything from the old motor.

After that i'll stick it in the parts for sale.

Cheers mate, definitely keen for first dibs.

Nothing wrong with it is there?

How do tappets sound?

turbo rebuilt. temp measure TD04-19T ordered




Oooo clean and shiney

Update Time!

Things that ive found out;

You need a Lancer CE-CH Starter motor.
You can save some time with a Lancer Fuse/Relay Box.
You need to mod the 4G93T gearbox plate as the starter sits to high for the gearbox and the flywheel.




Here you can see i have added a 2nd bolt hole and ground the circle down to allow the starter to be close and suit the new hole



All together


the already known was a issue, slave problem.



All 4 engine mounts replaced.



Almost there

Looking good and great progress at this rate next update will be (hi guys I'm done)

I haven't yet. Im looking into cutting the mounts off the slave rotating it so the inlet and bleed face down and weld the mounts back on.
Failing this the only other option is to use the two bolt hole on the right side of the fork to make a mount and then a long L shape bar welding to the fork

Very nice!

Just curious though, why'd you go for the house & garden tip (hollow) style lower mounts? Surely 150 odd atwkws would call for the solids?

so surprised the fto box bolts up look forward to more updates

I seriously thought about it, however since its a project daily and wont get driven with to much lust, its a hybrid combo. solid rear mount and have hot glue modded on the remaining 3 mounts instead. Hot glued a mates audi and pug both gave excellent feel without vibration.

And no its not just hot glue like kids hobby stuff, its actually 3M Windo-Weld Super Fast Urethane

I forgot to take a pic of the mount glued. (i'll update it later)

Pic for reference

people forget about the FTO GS. its a 4g93 1.8 SOHC with the FM5A-2 Box, hence the 2nd starter housing.

The 4g93T bolts to it like its a factory option

i know the fto had the 1.8l sohc lancer motor i wonder why you dont see them lol


just funny how this bell housing stud patter is so common between the Mitsubishi models does that mean the fto box will bolt up to a 463t?

You see the GS in englandtown it was just never approved for 2nd hand import into aust.

No the 4G6X Sirius Platform only shared the mounts of this year. The Platform had its only gearboxes

the FTO box "should" bolt to 4G91, 4G92 SOHC, 4G92 DOHC, 4G92 DOHC Mivec, 4G93 SOHC, 4G93 DOHC, 4G93 Turbo, 4G93 GDI Turbo, 4G94 SOHC, 4G94 GDI Turbo, 6A12, 6A13
