a little breakfast, and now i must go and finish up putting a timing belt on the NEW MOTOR IN the black mirage.

hooray for me. :)
 
good god, you bought TWO mirages. you need to have that dsm syndrome looked at.
 
its not mine :p its the one i had previously that i sold.

the owner has a broken wrist and im helping him out by changing the belts :)
 
and its not a DSM ALL mirages were built in japan :)
 
yeah if you own a dsm you have to wake and bake just to accept the fact you own a dsm.
 
dsm's are bad mmmkay?

got a new photoshoot uploading :)


so he blew the worked 4g15 that was in there, munched the valves since he busted the crank pulley bolt and thought it was alright to drive it home.

$320 later, we drove home a good shape running and driving stock S coupe, and swapped another 4g15 into the car in ~7 hours. we used my LSD tranny and ACT clutch assembly as well.

since then it hasnt run right. so i put a new timing belt/water pump/cam and crank seals and did some maintenance and its running better than ever :) no more leaking oil.

we swapped the old non-egr ported manifold/tb and valve cover on. looks good.

popped motor = 193K miles.
newer motor = 140K miles.

cant complain, a full motor swap and good spare parts for $320 bucks.

still other mods - full mirage LS exhaust, hockey puck motor mounts, ball bearing shifter cable bushes front and rear, LS brakes, sedan front end and carbon fiber hood :)

we now have an almost completely stock base to compare the upgrades of the red mirage to - and i must say its a HUGE difference.

if the tranny was geared a bit shorter i would be in heaven.
