NelsonEX Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi,I am looking into buying a g32b turbo engine out of a GSR Cordia for my 1980 Ex Lancer with a n/a g32b. My question is will this turbo g32b bolt upto my standard 5spd gearbox or is it a wideblock engine meaing ill need a starion/sigma turbo gearbox?Cheers Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NelsonEX Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Sweet so it should bolt up to my standard 5 spd? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranter Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I guessing you mean G62T? (1800ccTurbo)If you are fucking around with a 1600 Cordia Turbo engine then you are the only one, don't bother. If I recall there was some starter motor to flywheel differences in fwd to rwd conversion, its been a long time but someone else here will fill you in.

NelsonEX Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Talking about a 32t, only because if found a nice cheap one. Alright in quite certain they used the same starter motor so should suit flywheel u could always strip the one off my n/a 4g32 ivguess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranter Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 We are talking with the turbo on the inlet side? A nice cheap one is delivered, reconditioned and seller pays you. They only went as good as a normal 1600 with massive problems. My business partners' Mum bought one new, turbo worked only on that first day, he was a Mitsi tech at the time and they were forever seizing wastegates, blowing turbo seals and even a good one would use a sump of oil going to the coast. Traded as soon as the 1800 ones came out and we still have that 28 years later. I'd fit a non turbo 1600 or 2000 from a Sigma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NelsonEX Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Hmmm that's got me thinking if only I could find a good 62t or a 63t without paying the price of a evo 3 engine :/ your saying 200 shipped to Nelson for a 32t is to much? Turbo is on the exhaust side. Cheera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
be4ver Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 buy this off me! mint engine and narrow block so you can use your gearbox you already have. You'll just need to make/find an exhaust manifold to suit http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=608683189 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 32t with turbo on exhaust side and ECI throttle body injection would be from a box shape Mirage GSR turbo rather than an early Cordia turbo. Either way it's still a turd of an engine and you're better off with a 62t from a Cordia or even just an N/A SOHC 63 from a Sigma/L300 etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
