Thank you

What you want to modify?

u mean overhaul?

yes yes. overhaul. donno much about engine...
cuz very old and engine no power anymore. aircon also gone oledi...
might as well ask around.

any recommendation? in penang island?

too far...

any ideas anyone?

What engine?

any engine that is cheap and last long will do.

dont feel like taking up a loan and let the bank charge me.

What engine is inside the car now?

the ori one since 10years ago...

Proton wira every road side mechanic can fix la

4g13 4g15?

Wira got use many engines u know lol, which cc?

If you own a Wira 1.5, you're totally in luck. Market is swarmed with parts.

Search mudah or anywhere. If budget allow you, go for a complete engine rebuold, not just an overhaul.


P/s I do envy wira owners sometimes hehe...

Best answer so far. Loved it

not sure. but its 1.5.

but which mechanic to go leh?

dont laugh at me lah...

Bro, not laughing at you, just that those kind of witty answers are awesome
Since you said it's a 1.5L, means your engine code is 4G15

oic... lol

There's a forumer here with alias maddriver.

Or Powerzone Glenmarie @ Shah Alam.

Maddriver is experienced with engine rebuilds, port and polish.
Good stuff!

You only want recommendation in or near Penang Island?

Wira is good car.....people say its like tin milo but tell them.....milo is good for you......

Want reliable and swap it to 4g91 single cam from Wira MME edition......simple to maintain and got extra power.....if want more powaaàa.....get 4g93 single cam...but more cc means you have upgrade brakes also and change rear ones to disc....in Peneng i dont know shop but advise is there

1.5 is good for rebuilding.

yes. im staying in penang.

What are your goals actually for modifying, TS?
There are a lot of performance parts for 4G1 series engine

TS, you mentioned you want to overhaul..So just to reconfirm, you want to overhaul your current 1.5 engine or convert to another engine?

Suggest TS to do intake/exhaust mod first.

Depan buka, belakang kena buka juga.

EXHAUST
4-2-1 Stainless steel, mandrel-bent headers. ( You may get Hotbits, or powerzone's stuff)
2" custom piping (follow factory route)
Straight flow muffler.


INTAKE
Open Pod K&N / Simotawith custom heat-shield.

the mechanic told me my engine too old. need to change another one.
takut he tipu me so asking around right now.

convert to another engine.

is anyone can do that in penang and how much?

U convert other engine also u dont know the condition of the engine

If u fully rebuilt your engine, u got yourself like new engine

rebuilt like how?

Overhaul using new engine internal

Rebuild is basically a full overhaul with original or new parts

mitsu engin not cheap..what budget u have?

thanks for the explanation. so it should be cheaper compare to changing a mitsubishi engine right?


around 3k to 5k.

5k probably enough for 4g93 sohc... if u dont get chopped by mechanic...

thats the thing lah. scare kena chopped.

engine too old? what happen, block scratch, piston ring ko, compression lost?

Everything can be rebuild, no need put in new engine unless you budget high. 4g15 can build, oversize piston, waja crank, cost still less than transplant engine.

I've few very good mechanics in my list for engine rebuilding, especially original Proton engine, PM me and see how you want to get it done. I'm from Penang.

But me driving stock car only la of course,

Stock *coughs* stock.....AHEMMZZ

Memang la, x ubah ape2 pn, break cover china dan ezxos je~~~
