View Full Version : Evolution to a 7.5G

Well, I figured it was about time I put up what it is I'm actually doing with my car.

Well, as you'll see I'm converting it from a normal 7g VR-4 into a 7.5g VR-4, and here's how...

Firstly we start off with this...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/Arcadium/Gokuh/PC090224.jpg (http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Arcadium/media/Gokuh/PC090224.jpg.html)

My 1994 Galant VR-4 with a 6A12TT 2.0 V6 engine, manual g/box and a few mods

Then we go out hunting and come across this lil' baby

https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/6616_119886944306_2471031_n.jpg

Say hello to the 6A13TT 2.5 V6 engine, go on it won't bite.... yet

Once it has been obtained we start to strip the motor down

There's not too much left once you get right down to it...

Once all that has been done, I decided to get all the parts cleaned that I was going to reuse...

Yea, I'm hoping it will all come together nicely :D

Here's some more pics of where I'm up to...

Got the crank back all cleaned and balanced...

Along with the pistons and new piston rings
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/20737_270647594306_7837623_n.jpg?lvh=1

I had the inlet manifold cleaned and polished

https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/6616_119889014306_8038724_n.jpg

We then threw the car onto a trailer and went to take the engine out...

Who says we don't have brand loyalty, The car towing is a Mitsubishi Legnum, the other drive car we took in is a Mitsubishi Lancer and the truck we put the engine on the back of is a Mitsubishi L200. Also the work shop is part of the main Mitsubishi dealer in my city :D

There is of course more I will be doing to the car, but for now the engine swap is all the I'll be posting till I have everything else sorted ;)

(Edit: I'm not sure where the pics are for this section :/ )

Well, at this stage I'm just waiting for the heads to come back from being re conditioned and sorting out the gearbox mating to the block, so might be a few days before much else happens.

Though I still have my new brakes and rotors to play with in the meantime :D

Very awesome build! but isn't a 6a13 positioned the same way as a 8g galant 6G72? and the 6a12 is positioned the same way as a 3kgt 6g72? if so are you doing new custom motor mounts? on your chassis?

Lol, the engine is symetrical, you can rotate the inlet manifold then put the plenum back on the other way :P

Goku

It's a 7G VR-4 with an 8G VR-4 Engine in it now, also runs some of the other 8G running gear :)


Hmmmm..... I'm not sure why all my pics have disappeared..... I'll try to re do them all when I get a chance, so you can see the full build.

That legnum in the background makes me jelly.

Awesome stuff man, love seeing that engine squeezed in that engine bay! Did you drive it at all before the dyno tune?

Goku
12-18-2012, 12:25 AM
Lol, that's my brothers VR-4 Legnum

Nah, couldn't really, the tune it had was way too rough to drive it.... plus it's not technically road legal yet lol

keith6110
12-18-2012, 06:07 AM
Your brother is awesome xD

Is it a fresh build? (new engine hone, new pistons and rings)?

Goku
12-18-2012, 12:39 PM
Lol, don't tell him that, it'll go to his head.

For the most part yea, it didn't need a hone or pistons, has new rings etc, the block has only done around 120,000 km, so it's in pretty decent condition.

Well, as we all know dreams have a price and this dream of mine for building and ultimate and unique 7g VR-4 is no different.
Things are getting tougher financially, but I will still carry on when and where I can.

With that in mind I have set up a crowd funding page to help push this beyond my limited income, the "goal" amount is merely number and anything I get would help in the long term.

Thank you all, everyone who has read this thread, posted replies and watched this beast come to form.

Things are looking good, just pulled the engine out to take out the cams and replace them with 262 Degree ones along with up rated valve springs and adjustable cam gears.
Hopefully we'll see some great results when we can get it back on the dyno.

Twin TD04's have been sourced and are also on the way to be fitted over next winter.

Great build. Time for some evo brembos all around! I'd like to see some exterior videos of your car. Drivebys, or even just messing around in a parking lot. You have no idea what we in the states miss out on on those vr4's. Even something simple like the stickers on the fender or the folding mirrors are super cool things that we just don't get to experience. I'd even love to see more pictures of the trans, driveshaft, rear differential and all wheel steering.

Thanks for taking that vid! I've wanted one for so long. It's cool to see the extra power steering hoses running over the strut tower to head back to the rear axles. That is the very first time I have seen the door cards or interior for the 7g VR4. The embroidered VR4 emblems are wicked! We also didn't get the auto climate control in the states(with the exception of maybe 100 of the final production years in the states).
Are the fender VR4 emblems under the side marker decals or badges?

Do you have the back seats installed? I'd love to see pics of the rear seats and even inside the boot. This is very fascinating!

As Dohcstunr said it's interesting to see the power steering lines going over the strut tower. I want a 7g vr4 just like yours just about everything about it is perfect to me. I also want that legnum damn it!!

Lol, thanks man.
The Interior isn't factory, I have had it custom retrimmed. They don't have any of that embroidery in the door cards and the seats are from a FTO.
The front guard emblems are stickers I had made up and then clear coated in when I had the car resprayed.

Yea I have the rear seats in, I'll get you some pics some time.
