Half cut shop should have, I guess.....

emm, couples of points to check:
- how many load you have on car (how many ppl)?
- which brand petrol u using? (not sure only me or wat, Shell is having bad FC on my cars)
- when do top overhaul, got change piston ring? got check the ring to cylinder wall clearance? would it be cylinder wall wear off or piston ring wear off causing bad compression rate?
- try full service or overhaul the carburetor. This is the thing i hate most of my wira 1995 auto (besides the 3-speed auto tranny).
- tyre pressure okay? >210 psi?
- tyre alignment okay?
- try don't put any useless stuff/load on the car (like heavy stuff which u dun use everyday)
- do u idling a lot (like waiting for ppl, besides the usual traffic jam)?
- aircond compressor working okay? it got drag the engine or not...

my car is having as bad FC as urs too, even after full overhaul. Same year car, but it's auto. I am driving less than 10km/day, and i step on the accelerator and brake like siao lang, so expected the bad FC.

Waka waka...the sound of the rear absorber gone d..seems really the chamber nuts/skru be the kruk gruk culprit...(but nw heard the sound from the driver front seat...haizzz....) Smell the feel of bucket seat...

recommended to those have similar situation with my case, have the nuts be checked rather than the abs/spring/arms...

yours a carburetor type? if so, your carb could be problem.

let's see...

usually 2 or 3 ppl.
using shell also
changed the piston rings and one more part, can't remember what, but it solved white smoke problem.
tyre pressure 210
allignment abit off
most of the things are light.
idle mostly at traffic light and traffic jam
aircond compressor dunno, but got whistling sound when on aircon.


when overhaul carburetor, what is that?

Hello all..want to ask several questions especially to taiko2 who already change their engine.. I wanna give a new breath to my 10years+ wira + rebuild it..might change it to GSR Turbo..seems cool because of turbo ..want a speed..so,

1) What's UR opinion??
2) How about the maintenance??
3) Can i change the engine w/o take a body parts??
4) Any other opinion to go other engine??

Hope U ols can leave ur answer..

1) ok
2) slightly more troublesome compare to naturally aspirated engine
3) yes
4) depends on ur budget

BTW, the GSR is 1.8 or 2.0?

GSR is 1.8 (4G93T)

carb setting could be problem.. the carb itself could be 'dying'.. time to change the carb, perhaps?

im a GSRian.
1) good engine, spareparts easy to get. overtake car without downshift. , FC better than my 1.5I auto.
2) a bit more than NA. i change engine oil at 3k++, mineral only.
3) engine PNP, no modification needed. JPJ approved.
4) no. since you're ready to do transplant, i would suggest to go for the turbo. for once, try it, and you'll love driving.

ur one from what engine to what engine? I figured if i'm going to spend more money fixing, might as well get another engine...now wondering what are the engine transplant rules...

4g15p injection auto (1.5) to 4g93t injection manual (1.8 turbo)
the transplant rules, you can get it from JPJ (bahagian teknikal).
in brief, 1.5 to 1.8 is OK.. 1.3 to 1.8 cannot.
engine mounting cannot modify, mitsubishi 4g91, 92, 93, even the V6 engine 6A10 6A11 have same mounting. (need some sifu to clarfify), so all these model are ok for wira.

ur transplant total costs how much ah? including brakes etc


btw, i read chasis must be strong, so if accident before got problem?

it was 2++yrs ago. rm13k OTR.
with std GSR engine, i believe the chassis is strong enough to handle the power.
your car accident b4? to wat extend?

pretty badly, left fender all gone twice, first round car still can move no problem, second time the thing connecting the left wheel to the base of the car crooked.

first one some kembara on the left lane turn right in front of me so my lieft side hit his side, the fender just disintegrated

2nd one some assholes put so oil/sand at a turn, couldn't turn the car so i hit the wall at 30km/h.

So i would say it's pretty much not in good condition.

As long as main chasis were not affected, it should not pose any problem.....

^Any problem with that? For me, if it really affected the main chasis, it won't be safe...

Is 4g93 block and 4g93t block the same?

not sure, i only know the piston is not same.
