Hooray! Now to find somewhere to install it! I think this ones out of my range of skill!

 

Don't get cat hair on them!

 

just one? is Lancer engine SOHC? and who makes it?

 

yup its sohc. rpw makes one so does rrm.

most likely kungfu bought the rrm version...

i heard its not that hard to install a camshaft.

 

is that your new pet

 

I did not buy the rpw camshaft, i got a camshaft out of a 97 mirage with a manual transmition. The specs are pretty much rpw stage 1 for my car especially since i am auto.

RRM camshaft is what 300$? I got this one for about 15$ Looks like its in great shape.

If it isn't hard i would assume womeone here would have done a how to. which i haven't seen on here. anyone got a link?

 

02-06 is an sohc 16 valve 2.0, a 4g94 which is a bored out 4g93. Since the lancer engine is bigger, the camshaft is not as aggresive.

 

damn i actually heard about this but i wasnt sure if it was true. imma go to junkyard this weekened and look for a camshaft.

 

I also got the stiffer valve springs out of the older mirage. They are a small amount larger and are made stiffer. I figure i might as well upgrade them too!

Regarding the camshaft, mirage guys have been tooting this horn for a while. I figured i needed to put it to the test and put er in. Plus it is mitsu oem so i feel nice.

 

If this is going onto a head out of the car, it'll be cake! But if not, just use an overhead valve spring compressor and it'll not be hard. If it's anything like my sohc Civic head, the entire rocker assembly comes out as one unit after taking off the bolts.

Good luck!

 

Shizzle. I am having trouble with turbo install. And since i don't even know what machine you said, I will take it to a mechanic.

 

any updates?

 

Working hard on getting my turbo up and running with reliability. Then my brothers friend will install for a hundred bucks and dinner.

 

I'm sorry for the previous, mis-leading post! All you'd need to do is:
1. Set the crank/cam gear to TDC.
2. Remove T-belt.
3. Remove coil packs & wires.
4. Remove valve cover.
5. Remove valve train bolts. *Heres where I have no proof, since I've never cracked open a Lancer head; but on my Civic, I remove 14 bolts and simply lift up and remove the entire assembly as one piece.
6. Remove the camshaft.

If you're afraid of messing up, then by all means have someone else with more experience do this. But if you simply remove the vc, you can get a better idea of how exactly the assembly is held in place.

Good luck!

BTW, lube that "dry" camshaft good in oil or assembly lube over night.

 

This camshaft out of the mirage will work on the 04 ES, 4g94 engine also?
