You need
4x114 hubs
93-95 mirage kunckels
Or you can use the full galant knuckel and hub but will have a ton of pos camber the is hard to take out.

In the wifes car it has 1g dsm hubs and mirage knuckels from a 4g 93-95.

You then can bolt on big brakes on the car if you want to swap to a 15in rims

Sweet. Makes me want to finish what I had in mind with the AWD Colt Wagon.
From what I can see, my Colt's hub has the same part number as all other Colts. Meaning, at least the axles should spline in.
I think it would be fun to go to the DSM Cookout with a bunch of 4G63 swapped CSMs.

If you want to do it. I have a shop press. I can swap them all around for you for a case of beer.

So the car is kind of at a stand still right now due to crappy brakes...

This is what the 3g CSM brake look like... Kind of crappy and no one has the rotors around for them, or carry calipers, or master cylinders....
They are clamped to the hub by 4 bolts. You have to remove the hub if you have to remove the rotor. Sucks... Weird design coming from mitsubishi...

:Misc.block: I really need input here!

This is the time where I decide to go 4 lug or 5 lug non clamped rotor

I might as well convert it over to a free rotor while this is happening

If 4 lug I could just modify the hubs (grind down the edges so a rotor will fit over the hub) to work with another rotor like this

Then later I could do the 2 piston VR-4 rotor but would have to find 15" 4 lug wheels (which I don't have)

If 5 lug, I would just have to go to the u pull yard and pull 5 lugs plus brakes plus rotors which there are plenty out there

The negative side is I would have to do the back and Convert my drum brakes to disk brakes and modify the parking brake somehow... which there are parts out there but eventually I would like to go AWD anyway.
For right now I would like just to keep it FWD because I don't even have the 4g63 swapped into it yet.

I have 5 lug tires. DSM tires with good tread.

The main question is with the 5 lug, can I / should I use dsm wheels and tires? Or are they too big? Would they even fit underneath?

I could've sworn I sold you 4 15" 4 lug wheels with the car ;)

[Andrew7dg]

Are those the size of the other wheels?
We are in business again!

[turboimports]

Keep us updated!

Ok it is freaking freezing out...

Haven't done much because I am still at a stand still with the brakes...

I have collected some very important parts though

I have my Honda radiator 2" duel core

Mirage turbo axles + half shaft

all motor mounts needed plus some poly inserts in a couple of them

Plus I have my 4g csm knuckles I can play around with

Are these 4 X 100? I really wish they went with a standard 4 lug pattern...:madashell:

So I am getting a good collection of what I need...

I am finding out that converting the rear from a 4 lug Drum to 5 lug disk is tricker (and more expensive!) then I thought and I am tempted just to do the AWD rear frame swap just to get it over with. I do have all of those parts together so the only thing that is stopping me is a warm garage Would it be cheaper to do the swap?

Anyone want to donate their garage to a poor CSM person :violin:

I wish the car was moving right now but maybe I will just have to piece something together to get it to move. I don't know how though...
I am going to try to keep this project under $1000 anyway I can! so any helpful, cheap advice, (also accepting donations) would be greatly appreciated!

[Andrew7dg]

So whats left?
Motor (I can piece something together! with my blocks sitting around)
Trans (I do have a FWD trans laying around)
Fuel line?
1" square tube


TKR, please tell me I can massage the gas tank to work behind the AWD system so I don't have to have a fuel cell in my hatch :)

[craig]

might have a place to do the swaps this spring to both cars if you want to. I will be modding a awd 1g gas tank to fit in the car
by the way this is mark

also 4*100 is the norm 4*114 is not that is why the mirage went to 4*100 in a 4g
