Toyota-Mitsubishi hybrid

[rollaholic]

i dont think i t is cert'd for turbo, in the INDUCTION bit it says fuel injected not turbo.

yeah its a good conversion and pretty mint car but at the end of the day its still an EX lancer

EX lancer is For The Win, im not normally a fan of cross breeding but id hit it Woulda been better if he hadnt ruined it with a toyota motor tho

yeah, should of used one of those awesome mitsi V8s!

oh, wait...

[Snoozin]

Looks like a nice job but it MUST be pretty front heavy?

Also I don't understand the single turbo setup, it looks like only one bank is feeding the exhaust wheel? So with that big turbo with basically a 2L it'd be pretty laggy yeah?

Cool none the less.

But still not as cool as the mint 1uz conversion I saw In a JZA80 manual supra on the weekend. THAT was a clean conversion

I dunno, the all alloyness of a 1UZ would be in favour, surely it wouldn't be far off a 4G63 as far as weight goes?

My favourite thing = the bodywork. Factory colour respray, and the way the factory black rub strips have been moulded into the panels looks amazing IMO. Subtley wicked.

[Si]

It must be close, these are interweb weights but yeah..

4Mitsi g63 engine complete 152KG
Toyota 1UZ-FE long block(?) 177KG

Mmm, 8A80... Imagine the amount of Proma MBL8 it'd take to shut up 32 lifters

wow you should become a warrant guy - same sort of response i get from them
the 'MOD' after the engine make signifies it's modified, bit silly imo it doesn't describe in more detail i guess this is because in the old days all mods were invisible i.e compression pistons etc.

Maybe Leon can enlighten us?

[Muzzie]

Now thats cool.

Seriously dangerous though

Love how he says it's a Lexus V8 - even though it has Toyota on the cert plate and intake plenum

Same person has a DX for sale with a 1UZFE too

He brings up a good point though, the cert plate in my ae86 with 4agze conversion says either "supercharger" or "Forced Induction" not just fuel injected...can't remember which it is right now.

Kind of weird though, what has fuel injection got to do with the induction type anyway?

I'll have to have a look at the cert plate on my gtz turbo for comparison.

Maybe it has to do with running high pressure fuel lines?

[IH8TEC]

i have my cert plate from my trueno (had to keep something )

in the induction box has : FUEL- INJ TURBO

also in the "No." box mine has 4agze so should his not have 1UZ

so yes, very good point

[Mr.Phreak]

Unfortunately there is very little consistency in how cert plates are filled out so theres no reason it's not legit.

However if I was considering buying it, it's definitely something I'd check out

[THA SHZ]

nice car but 20,000 ? isnt that a little pricey ? thers alot of other cars i would buy for 20,000 than an old mitsi

Exactly. That car is well and truely overprices IMO.

[flygt4]

+1 for "fuel injected turbo" on cert plate for induction.

Yeah but it's straight, had everything done to it, to do all that and get it up to that standard like it is now would probably cost you something not far off that and there's been alot of time and effort gone in to it obviously.

Yup, you probably wouldn't be able to build it for that.......but then again, why the hell would you want to

Because it's different to a dx-rotor, ex-starion, RWD toyota-4AGZE conversion.
I haven't seen it done before, especially with the turbo hanging off the side. Different is good.

[Mr.Phreak]

The Ford Edsel was different

a mate got stickered for not having his car cert'd for turbo, afta all the hassle he finds out that it is in-face cert'd (only bought it a couple months ago) but only had FUEL INJ listed and turbo wasn't printed on the plate, got a free reprint which now clearly states turbo. bloody yankees

why would he need a v8 when theres 4G63T's??

I was trying to think of something weak about the 4g63... but I couldn't think of one.*



*I am by no means an expert on them either though.
