If I can say... if you are going to do E-Manage, I would just do Heltech.

I thought you were going for brembo calipers in the front though ?

Was trying to save alittle cash and I already have most of the brake parts already got them in a trade.

Im not sure if My hp goal is to high or not?

370 ?

Nah, there are a couple here running about 400, so 370 on a fwd should be pretty realistic.

Oh okay cool my real goal was 400 but decided to lower my hopes to 370

Due to it being FWD instead of AWD, you'll be able to gain power a bit easier, due to the lower transmission loss.

This is some awesome project, real awesome job man keep up the good work.

**JDMFTW** · 10-20-2010, 05:27 PM

Oh wow I haven't posted in awhile.

Did some wiring a few months ago basically got no where, sorry to say but the VR4 community is so small info is not plentiful and ontop of that all the sites are pay now.

The combination of the fact the ECU in the VR4 is MUTII gives me millions of problems ive been daily driving this car for sometime and every time its something else.

Im soon switching to a USDM 3000GT VR4 ecu and doing a repin and tune to fix Mitsubishi's screw up on using a bad and outdated protocol.

Thats an Evo 6 Engine harness laying on the ground there

how it looks as of now picture taken Sept 2010

I plan on picking up a 97+ galant for this winter and pulling this engine out and swapping in a 4G63T i picked up into the Mirage. after that's done I plan on swapping the engine into the galant.

I have another video but it involves "street racing" aka highway pulls, not sure what the rules are on her about posting it.

blue8g · 10-20-2010, 09:15 PM

You wouldn't be the first guy to post a vid on here. Besides, I'm sure your vid was shot somewhere in south america right?

lol "hint hint"

**mysticj** · 10-21-2010, 02:55 PM

MUTII protocol huh? What problems you having? You may be able to log it if you connect the OBDII to the ECU.

**JDMFTW** · 10-21-2010, 04:49 PM

^ I have connectivity problems, same issues guys in the UK and Aussy land are having, the ECU's are pure garbage.

Only a few have managed to be lucky to have one the works and is flashable.

my problem is basically this im throwing a CEL under normal driving. but i cant read the code as it wont connect even using evo scan with the correct cable.

now here is the fun part, all my sensors test ok BUT a cold start the car takes some finagling to get it to start. and if its below 50 degrees it wont start at all you have to use ether/starting fluid to get it to fire.

Ive even replaced sensors for no reason also did a tune up running new NGK plugs etc, now after the car runs for awhile if I go to shut it off and try to start it it tries to flood itself out so i have to give it WOT to start after this happens NO CEL and the car idles at 3200 (yes 3,200) RPM's

I really have no clue whats going on nor can i read it to figure out.

luckily Mante runs a AEM ecu for a 3000gt so my attempt will be to use just the oem ecu and reflash it. this probably wont be till later as i want to just start fresh with it in the correct chassis.

**mysticj** · 10-22-2010, 11:08 PM

Sounds like a bad sensor ground to me. As far as reading the CEL, PM sent.

**qnz** · 10-23-2010, 12:13 AM

thats somehting different in the Mirage

**JDMFTW** · 01-11-2011, 10:22 PM

6A13 no more. swapping to a 4G63

Car is going into the garage next week redoing the rockers and finish up the exterior Evo 5 with evo 4 spoiler.

then doing a mild wire tuck on the body harness goals for the engine are HKS 272 850cc injectors FP green and E85 should yield me in the 400hp range.

Ill update with pics as i start the tear down.

**Galanttuner10** · 01-11-2011, 10:49 PM

i like the idea and how it will end up, but why the swap after all the work to get the 6A13 in there, and by 63 swap im figuring same orientation as the evo 4-9
