  1. I only need small bits. Swap you my front seats and my fucked bits
  2. The owners of the blue and brown lancers should donate me parts/spam
  3. Lancer currently rolls no heater or fan. Sucks when the window fogs up but easy enough to deal with
  4. Il be there in my daily. Not taking the lancer to auckland now as i cant afford to race at drags. Stupid coupe failed wof
  5. probably the reason i bought it/didn't sell it after 2 week like everybody else
  6. white- hell no, almost every daily i have had in my driving life has been white(this was originally intended as a daily) it will stay blue for now, i want a wof for it so i can do the engine swap before nats, some rust work may be needed
  7. under the bonnet is red. im thinking of going with the blue and a thicker black stripe down the side. The front is back on standard springs minus a coil, due to issues with the springs not being captive and the passenger side sitting 10mm lower than the drivers side(already at 100mm) passenger side is noticeably softer out of the car
  8. I drove this thing untill just before the wof ran out, when I was driving home from town and the carb decided to quit(more fuel down the outside than down the inside) Parked on the front lawn untill today. I tightened a few bolts on the carb, sprayed some ether down it and it fucken started!!!!!!! I plan to take this to nationals with the motor from the lancer because I figure its way more comfy to go that long distance in the coupe than the lancer, but I can't afford to fuel the 4g54 lump to nelson The 4g63 should give it a good power improvement and (hopefully) improve the fuel economy No pictures of todays work yet because I cbf getting off the couch to get my camera TL;DR I have considered this paint job stolen off the sigma-galant forums I like this one
  9. discuss this: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/41851-bigfoots-mitsi-scorpion/ Mods: feel free to put all the other build theads for this thing into one, I think i'm the only one to actually do anything to it though
  10. I think almost everybody on here has owned this car Here is my addition to the story: I bought this thing back in august for the grand sum of $800 which was mostly aquired from a tax return Half way home: It badly needed slam, so after some discussion with my parts guy, we ordered some custom made springs (no listings for scorpion or gh sigma) from cobra(chaimberlains in chch I think) I also chucked some mesh wheels on the front that were lying around home cos those SEI sigma wheels were ugly and the tyres are made of some form of anti grip compound I did consider making the car look like this: maximum rake How it ended up:
  11. Nah. Its shit, borrowed it from some muppet but i havn't got around to moving engine to my good stand yet
  12. Over my time of owning this beast, I have been aquiring some parts spaghetti from Bubblegoose via Dave AMG block from cam (as seen earlier in thread), and pick a part head some assembly required I gave myself a digital camera for xmas so no more cellphone pictures
  13. Last month I took it to the Oldschool drag day, it had done about 1000km on the new rings, so I threw some new oil at the engine and the diff and gave it hell 16.55@132km/h was the best I could do with no traction and a dodgy 3rd gear, I plan to return to the strip with a few changes to try and crack a 15 with the sohc motor I couldn't manage to link the video of my launch so here are some random pics my front lawn today random arty shot in my driveway not long after I got the blue whore Hanging out with it's younger brother at the Rally of Whangarei I was going to use this photo for the olds cool autos picture comp but ran out of time to photoshop the logo in(finished the next day)
  14. Long time no update Basically I have been driving this thing everywhere I will try to update all the stuff I have done and add in some photos from my phone in no particular order Drove it to nationals (2000km round trip) took it on Manfield and gave it death, it then became hard to start in the morning and blew lots of oil into the catch can, I, eventually pulled it apart and found this (no.1 piston) [/img] No.4 had done the same thing Gave it a hone and some new rings, didn't bother with bearings because they still looked like new and slammed it back together along with a kit for the carb
  15. I got offered 1 of these for cheap, so tempted lol
  16. Mine has a 4g54 (2.6) that will be free to any home soon if you want it. Its narrow block
  17. Yes, i need to make a build thread, i have done a bit to it now
  18. This thing is inspiration to make my one (scorpion) going again
  19. I want to go. Unfortunately car not going properly and will be attending crate day celebrations
  20. Aparently the manual 2wd gearboxs that fit them are huge/cut tunnel spec. A few have been started on sigma-galant.com but i dont think they got finished
