Hi all, great forum you have here, I use to own a gsr which I converted to evo2 running gear about 8+ years ago and spent a heap of dosh on back in NZ. Back then there was a mitsi forum in nz called mmcnz I think. That was a great place to buy parts and find info.
So long story short, I have found a cheap Mitsi (VR4 E39a) Jap spec with a blown head gasket on Boost cruising and was talked into buying it from one of my employees. So it arrived on a tow truck and I go off searching for Australias version of a Mitsi forum for some info! and I have found you guys! Great info on the car and heaps of good reading.
So as per usual, Just a quick fix head gasket, has gone to pull the whole motor out and rebuild it in the garage, recon head, new pistons, bearings ... all the basics- and it will be one of the company cars all stickered up for 'advertising' .
Funnily enough the employee who talked me into it , was the man who made a lot of the custom interiors for some of the popular old evos like NForca and a few others.I met him in NZ and he made me a custom interior for my gsr. So guess what he will be doing to pay me back for his new company car Hope he reads this......
