gsr lancer manual to auto conversion

[jetevo3]

Hi guys I'm currently doing a auto conversiono on my 1994 gsr Lancer. It has a 2 litre 4g63 engine already. I bought a kiggly flex plate kit as my crank was a 6 bolt. That's all good. I put an rvr auto 4wd transmission in but now I don't know which gearbox mount to use. Any help? This is the mount on the drivers side as the manual evo 3 gearbox mount or the rvr auto gearbox mount won't work. Which car auto transmission mount do I use. Also I have complete evo3 manual conversion up for sale. Which includes genuine evo 3 gearbox, transfer case, pedal box, cables with bearings, clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder, exedy heavy duty button clutch brand new done less than 500kms, and also manual shifter.Open to offers as 3rd sometimes is hard to get into but other times is fine. Located in Melbourne, Vic. Please help me as I miss my car being on the road

The correct mount will be the mount from a auto gsr. Good luck with that.....

Whays wrong with the rvr box mount and a gsr body mount? High, low, or too far forward and back?

 

[4piknup]

Teds box fits, ask him.
also robevo may know, or he might of just made something work....

somethimg about magnas tickling my brain

 

[jetevo3]

Thanks for that. The gsr body mount won't fit into the rvr box mount.

 

[4piknup]

Is it as simple as using a rvr bush in the gsr mount?
Or narrowing the gsr bush to suit the rvr mount.

 

[Cranked]

Does the gsr box mount interchange with auto box mount?

 

[evo-gsr]

Its no good when you cant mount a box anymore.....

 

[4piknup]

No. The gsr box mount wont bolt onto rvr box.

i thought it was in teds members ride, what mounts he used.
I was probably going to cut and shut the gsr body mount to suit for me.

^^^ that's where I'd go. Backyard engineering at it's best!

 

[evo-gsr]

Dont encourage Jack.....He has lots of backyard ideas already.

I'll have a look on the weekend really can't be bothered so over this car

 

[Cranked]

Worth looking at a auto proton for both mounts, i reckon. Taks the rvr box mount to compare mounting points.


its ok, i have valium that i had left over from the sick dog. Fully relaxed.

I used a magna gearbox mount welded to the original gearbox mount plate...it works well.

 

[jetevo3]

Ted which magna? Photos?

 

[4piknup]

Did you try/look at a auto proton mount ted?

Fwd and awd boxes are dofferent jack awd boxes sit higher up and the mounts are different shapes in the bolt pattern

 

[4piknup]

Thanks.i know they bloody big and heavy.

 

[jetevo3]

So which awd mount will work?
