  1. Headlight levelling Servo (3wire type)

    As with pretty much all of mitsubishi's old electornics in these and their sister cars. The adage change your caps really applies.Here was the last job I did on the Lancer but the servo is used on late (1992/1993 cars) and others.The servo takes a power feed and an earth. The 3rd wire is...

  6. Steering Rack. Knocking, rebuild?

    Turned over some rocks to find the company I bought seal kits from way back when.. Here is their webpage as a screenshot: Looks like Covid and Brexit export restrictions killed it. It was dissolved in 2021 per companies house.

  10. Steering Rack. Knocking, rebuild?

    Nope, but there is a shoe on the back behind the pinion you need to adjust. The bottom of the pinion also runs in a roller bearing. I’ll look out the uk place i used for seal kits and post for you. If there’s play stop using it as you’ll knacker up the rack and pinion. Do you have the shop manual?

    I have no Idea. I just need the light panel and say 6" around it. It would also need shipping to the UK. How much do you need for it? 2WD/4WD is fine, the light panel and outer tinwork are the same.

  17. LSD rear in Galant GSX Question

    GGSX is a w5M31 box, GVR4 is a W5m33 box. Wider gears and slightly larger (higher strength)You could rebuild the og rear with the diff out of the LSD one. You'd need to swap the ring gear over, that would also solve the ratio issue. No need to tear the front apart then.Rich
  18. JDM VR-4. Speed Limiter.

    Here is my T-1 HKS SLD:And here is the wiring for E39A:The inside of the box has all the chip idents filed off. Hope this helps.Rich
  19. JDM VR-4. Speed Limiter.

    You need a HKS SLD (Speed Limit Defencer). I'll dig out the manual and see where it plugs in. There is a speed reed switch in the clocks that feeds into the ECU and the ABS i believe It's used to help compute load I believe. The JDM cars also have a second reed switch which pulses above 65...

  23. Upcoming server move

    Gents. Bringing to your attention. the www.galantvr4.org splash page links are circular.. they don't default to the board. They just go round and round and round.. It needs fixing.Cheers!Rich
  24. Rear Windshield Wiper only on JDMs?

    You are correct it was only on the Japan home market cars as saloons. All the bracketry is present to install the rear wiper on the other cars. All the euro cars I have come across had the body loom wiring from the factory to support it already installed.I think there are a number of rear...

  31. Using foglight switch as off/on switch

    These are the same as the latch on demister switch too. the middle part comes out and you could add a different emblem. IIRC there should also be a pilot you can patch in so the switch changes colour when activated.Rich

  35. Anyone know a part number for JDM GVR4 o2 Sensor?

    You can use a 4 wire one and leave the heater wires disconnected. All you need to do is de-pin the connector and swap the shell of your one on. Leave the heater wires off or cut them back. I believe the EPS rack (2WD GSR) and AC Clutch use the same connector family, You might find the same...
  36. Radio: OEM options or period correct upgrade

    You can use a 3k dsm headunit with this changer too it'll work, but you need to add an exta line to the illumination. It's set up in the 3K with a dimmer. So if you really desire you can hook up a dimmer feed to it too. That's what I've wired in mine.Rich

    Here's the takeapart of the mirror.This is from the JDM Technical manual, it was never supposed to be a serviceable item, but the reason I love these cars is everything is held together with proper screws so you can rebuild it:I've posted the whole section on the mirror construction...
