I have decided to get a 91' FWD GSR Turbo as it would be a great project car and there isn't to many of them around. It isn't intercooled, is that going to make it difficult to put a intercooler on it? I am thinking of an EVO 3 intercooler for it. If I changed the turbo, do i have to put a new E.C.U in? Does anyone know what the standard turbo is. I think it is maybe a TD04, but I could be wrong? I also want to put forged pistons in it, would they be easy to find?
Redbook said there is to versions, a 3-Door and a 5-Door. So I take it this is the 5-Door with a bodykit of course?

Cheers

Here is a good example of what one can look like.

 

I might be wrong but I don't think that model had a turbo, I think the GSR version was just a twin cam 1.6. You could always stick a MIVEC in it though, should give you about 130kw

 

I think Grover is right. They didn't have a turbo but then again we could be wrong. Ask Mivec on this forum, he should know for sure.

 

I think the Jap spec ones were

 

In Australia we did not get a turbo version of the CA - CB Lancer. So unfortunately the 1991 CB Lancer GSR which you are talking about is non turbo, 1.6 (1596cc) 5sp Manual Multi-point injected. The identical motor is run in both the 3 and the 5 door.

 

Alan ! Dude where'd u get the top pic? That looks f#*king cool with the EVO IV bar! TELL ME NOW!

 

As to the original question, does anyone know the specs interior wise (power windows etc) for the 91 GSR. I take it that it would be a CB model? Would the CC GSR motor bolt in? That pic from Alan has got me thinking of a relatively inexpensive super tourer style moded CB Lancer? What would a good condition 1 go for?

 

This is not a dis, but is the front bar meant to be on that car? as i can spot a huge gap between the bar and the grill. or does he have my brothers problem where his car is too low and scrapes **** that rips the bar down ?

 

2 words... Retro-Fit ... but I wrekon done properly it would look the goods

 

That one in my first post is turboed. He did it, it doesn't come standard. That would explain why it hasn't got an intercooler.


Cheers

 

Where did u find the pics and info on this car? I'm thinkin of trying to pull off that look (Stripes, and side-skirt stickers), but I need a better/bigger pic to geta beta look.

Also has anyone used photo editing programs to "Mod" car pics? What programs are good, cause I wanna see what design looks good on my car. Thanks.

 

Go to photoshop forum, in i think other topics or something liek that.. they should be able to help you with the program..

i think adobe photoshop 6 is perdy darn fine.

 

Photoshop Forum? Where do I find it, and how do I get hold of the program?

Kind of slightly OT here, the US did get the turbo Mirage (Colt Hatchback) during 89-92. It has a turbocharged 1.6 4G61 engine, outputing 150-180 hp (can't really remember). It's FWD, a few owners in the states put the 4G63 motors into these cars, which has little problem accepting the 2.0 engine

I rode in one of them, very nimble and fast
