not a full on race car just a street car that can handle track abuse
trying to locate a 2l twin cam to fit in as the one i had lined up seems to have vanished
have a set of R1 carbs ready to be fitted to the engine i don't have aswell

as for the sounds i have it turned down most of the time my ears can handle all that bass

sounds promising. n/a screamer mitsi will be good, different to the 4g63t route.

been there done that fed up with turbo's
i want to keep the car tidy and simple so a set of carbs eliminated lots of horrible wiring and im sure i can keep the mj ignition system quite hidden
the rule for my engine bay is, if it doesnt need to be in there it wont be :P :badgrin:

Oops, your damn right i should have, i even have one here for it.

edit: I never figured out why it had to be pushed for 5th, coz standard boxes dont.. I had 2 other boxes with similar shifters sitting around at the time, so its likely one of them got a little muddled up. Hope it doesnt cause you any dramas.

push for 5th?? that's weird.. mine's got a push for reverse which I haven't seen on any other mitsis of the same era.

only just saw your project thread now, sweet build up and crack up colour scheme underneath. how are you going to control ignition with the twin cam on carbs?

i fugures that if i have an offensive enough colour sceme
then it might distract the wof guys from any real problems hahaha
i was planning in going megajolt or megasquirt for the ignition
preferably megajolt as it removes the temptation of slapping on injectors and a turbo
so if anybody has one for sale (actually i need 2 one for my dads x-flow) then i may be interested

Liking it quite alot apart from disneyland colourscheme... but each to their own, hmmm Looks real similar to one prozac worked on...

Edit, pays to read first, it is!
Oil leak? What oil leak? That puddle under the car is just sweat from all that horsepower....

Phil. the Sigma had push for 5th. I replaced the gearstick with a cut down one I had, possibly orientation was wrong or some weird shit

bubblegoose: You'll have to build the Megajolt up for each individual car I'm pretty sure. Ie: You cant just whack any old one on and try tuning it.

i thought that all megajolts were the same apart from either having tps or map?
they only list those 2 kits on the site i was going to use
