so i have been working on getting MIVEC onto the older generation 4G63 engines... so this was a test to see if it was affordable to upgrade to the 3rd gen heads..

will begin work onto the MIVEC head conversion shortly....


4G63 DSM block (6bolt) with EVO7 head.. (note this is all DIY!)

Chipped single board ECU (ECMlink on the way)
1G 6 bolt block
Evo 7 Head
2G CAS (no mods straight bolt up)
1G Throttle (needed 5mm plate adapter)
1G Thermostat housing
1G 1 piece timing cover
Evo 7 cams and gears
Evo 8 (shaved) intake manifold
Evo 9 injectors and rail
VR4 wiring loom (extended)
Evo 6 coil packs and leads
Evo 7 turbo 16G
i'll list more when i remember..

(note: if anyone has noticed, yes they are 255 wide front tyres :P)

just wiring my gauges and RPM converter..

ran out of space on the intake manifold and fuel rail for my pressure gauge.... so here is an idea for everyone....
