They could... if it was power that they wanted... "There's no replacement for displacement"

Take it apart and go from there.


i'm sure at some point they took it apart. but they ran a production class so they were limited to some strict guidelines. and this was back in the day when Mitsubishi ...

No I'm sorry you miss understood me, the WHOLE truck has 14k miles on it. Built brand new as a rally truck, was used for nothing but rally.

Do those guys do over sized pistons and bearings?

But that was my goal to get it all apart and see what I have.

Excellent that's what I was hoping you would say.

Thanks for all the info

Just noticed that it has the 93&up Grille with the 87-92 Steel bumper... Is that a 94 or a 95?

it's a 92, well at least that's what the title says. :D

this thing has been rebuilt many a times. been rolled twice i think. most of the front clip has been replaced.

and it just dawned on me that ...

wow, that was way cheaper then i thought it would have been.

even with the full bore everything and a oil pump it's not an arm and a leg.

and yeah, it's seen a hard life. was built new as a rally truck, won the 1995 SCCA national truck champion ship. currently only 14k miles on it. HARD effing ...

originally, it was to build a 2 wd version for the Subs, but the added bonus is a cheaper Toyota 4 wd driveline for the rock crawlers

TECHNICALLY, i got a hold of you so i could put it all in a 1st gen rx7, :D

then you have the complete other end of things, there are some crafty subaru guys out ...

i just picked up a mighty max and i'm getting what i'm thinking is maybe some rod noise.

rather then wait for a rod to come through the side of the block, i'm thinking i'm going to try and be proactive and do a rebuild on it, at least the bottom end of things.

nothing fancy, some bearings, a ...

i tell you what, if for even a moment you start talking about rear end swaps and are going to go through all the work of making a new axle fit, and have brakes, and all those good bits.

take 2 mins and look at the toyota 4x4 rear axle. I just got done swapping one into a 1st gen rx7. you can get ...

could someone throw a tape measure to a 4g63 and measure a couple things for me. if i could get the length of motor and the height from the bottom of the pan up.

thank you ever so much

Ooooooo ouchy, that's a little low for what i was hoping to do with it.

with your 3 inches below hows the hood clearance?

does anyone make a rear sump set up that they sell?

can you off the top of your head remember where the pan sat? is it sitting way low or flush with the cross member?

i basically have the same question about making a 4g a rear sump.

but i'm not getting what you're saying about getting a pan from a ford 351. are you saying to graft on the pan and use the oil pick up from the ford. or am i just missing your point completely

I would love to see some pics of your crossmember and the oil pan. If you get some time and a chance to snap some pics I would like to see it.

ok that's just to crazy i was just about to start a thread asking if anyone had ever done a swap into a 2nd gen rx7. lol

but i can contest to the oddity that is the rotary. i have a 12a in my 1st gen race car, with 2 oil coolers and a radiator that could end global warming its still barely enough ...

i mean sure you ask yourself, why they hell would he want a t5 over a t56.

well a full dog boxed t5 can be had for around $1500, and that's using a stock housing which are a dime a dozen.

but it was just a thought when a buddy and me were talking race cars today. i told him i knew of a t56 bell ...

if there is really no difference other then maybe some smoothed out castings or something simple like that i'll take it. what i'm hoping is he didn't massively improve it in later castings, because at that point it would be worth the extra $100.

i'll PM you

any real difference between the early ones and the current ones?

did this one come with the extras like slave cylinder, pilot bearing spacer and front cover plate?

i have been thinking turbo once i have learned what it's going to take to do the NA.

but finding turbo cars to part out around here are a little hard to come by.

So I have been doing a lot of reading about swapping turboed 4g63s into everything but i had some questions about doing a NA 4g63 head onto a 4g64 block.

OK so from what I read it works just fine.

So I'm assuming the NA swap is similar to the turbo swap, well with out the turbo any ways. where ...

i'm big into the old subaru world and the older legacys share the same idea as the 1st gen dsm, the engine has it's own harness and once you get the rest of the BS out of the way it's a simple plug in everything, add constant power here, and keyed power here, and ground here, and start power here ...

i might also switch over to the w series trannys too. from what i can tell the turbo tranny is the, it will never break option, but with so much give the gravel gives the w series trannys might be strong enough for me. and bill says you have to do some machining to the front of the r154 and ...

another portland area guy? COol. Welcome to the board. THere was a guy in vancouver selling a billhousing r154 setup with a transmission for 500 a while back. He may still have it.

Or talk to bill, and buy direct from the man. Whats this going in?

any idea who the guy was?

i did email bill and ...

ok i just answered my own question, as i looked up some front wheel drive 4g63s and i see the difference between what you have and what is on there.

i will take one.

ok so excuse my stupidity as i am learning about this process but at a slow pace, in the mighty maxes i have read that either you have to clearance the fire wall or move the engine forward a few inches. does this eliminate needing to do that or what is the benefit of the 90 degree water outlet

i seem to be the last guy to learn about the ability to take a 4g63 and make it RWD fun. i just picked up a mighty max and have been really looking to put in 4g63 and have some turbo fun.

this is my list of stuff that i would like to pick up so far

RWD intake
r154 Billhousing and tranny

i'm just ...
