Thanks guys, we here in Australia didn't get the galants at all. These have only just passed the 10yr rule to be imported in the last few years. I first saw them in newzealand and the started the reasearch process. Found a local importer and got 1 from him. I fell in love with the black. Such a nice colour. And the wagon just ticks all the family boxes. Lol

Did a service and replaced engine and Gbox mounts. As they were well shagged. The oil had exploded from the drivers side.

Trotty

Well dyno on Saturday didn't do too well. Dyno blew up before first run was completed. Hopefully next weekend.

If all goes well injector seals and filters will be replaced, injectors sonic cleaned as well as flow tested. Also gunna try and remake the top ic pipe ontop of motor. Waiting for O ring groves to be machined up. Then to make a cleaner merge. Reduce some back pressure/turbulence in the hot side. May also port polish top to bottom manifolds.

My AYC pump has been rebuilt awaiting figment and bleed. Been 18mnths since I bought the car and its never worked properly for anymore than 2 corners before ayc light comes up on dash.

Next tune I'm putting in launch control and anti lag for shits and giggles. Goodbye diff!!!!

how much was the vinyl to do the roof? im looking to do the roof of my hatch mazda mps which is about the same size as yours, rough estimate on the price per meter?

Trotty

05-02-2014, 01:31 AM

It was $70 a meter. But the roll is 1500mm wide. I got 4m and it was maybe 400mm left over. But that was bonnet aswell. So 2.5m for roof.

u just gave me an idea... ill be able to compare the 6a13 gearbox and the 4g63 gearbox in about a month or so

But I read somewhere that the 6a13 gearbox only fits the 6a13 could be wrong tho hop3 so at least

wetamup2k3g

12-07-2014, 06:46 PM

Damn, looking at the pics, aside from the bell housing the trans looks identical.

Trotty

12-07-2014, 06:49 PM

Yes the bell housing is different. They share the same internals between the evo 4g63t and 6a13tt. Had a few members change the gear sets over as evo gears are longer on 1st 3rd and 5th. Iirc

ViewAskew

12-08-2014, 10:14 AM

Well I know the 4g63 transmission bolts up to the 6a12tt and vice versa and the guy that built my eclipse with the 6a12tt said if this motor blows we should just drop in the 6a13 as the parts are easier to come across so I assume the 6a13 would bolt to the 4g63 because he said I'd only need the motor.

I have been sourcing slowly a spare driveline for any more misshaps. I have another viscous LSD rear diff., awaiting arrival of another transfer to do the bolt upgrade on to try and stop any flex in the casing.

Now after the last dyno day I've noticed that 4th has been a little more noisier than I would like. So I'm preparing a frankenbox from an evo 6.5 tommi 5speed and the longer 5th gear from an evo 7.

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/28/8c7f97d2c739186eeffb286df9569f7d.jpg

Now after pulling the box down I found it had the 4.52 final drive and
1st-14/39= 2.785
2nd-20/39=1.95
3rd-27/38=1.407
4th-33/32=1.031
5th-42/32=.762

I want the 5th from the 7 to bring that down to 43/31=.720
