Project GSR: Dusting off the Lancer | Mitsubishi 4G63 | BACKYARD MECHANICS | fullBOOST

[@Abe.Wassenstein]

I have fond memories of this car. It's good to see it's still kicking.

[@gradyruiter663]

That thing is so cool, you don't see them everyday especially in not the worst nick either. I want that thing 🔥

[@tmmtmm]

liking these 'off the cuff' format videos, thanks for sharing!

[@TrackDayClub]

Great vid Geordie. Nice to see the GSR and the work put into it. EVO's are cool but its good to see another type of Lancer .

[@danielbrealey2924]

Wow, the WRX driver was trying pretty hard to whack into your bro there @ 7:37!!! Cool vid, cool little car too. Thought I was seeing double there for a sec- that's the first time I've ever seen you both in a vid like that. We got another Fullboost project car here, maybe?!? Do it, come on. Then you can race them for a finale. Ratings gold!!!

[@princesssolace4337]

I've done 215/40/17 with 17x8 et38 from a EVO 7 and l just change the hubs to make it a 5 lugs 114.3 and still keep the stock knuckle...Cheers mate for a gorgeous car😘

[@fullboost]

+Princess Solace Thanks! I'd love to do a 5 stud Brembo convers ion on it one day.

[@lewisflynn7018]

Upgrade the turbo to something more modern and that comes on boost fairly early, LSDs in the diffs, keep the exhaust tame. Focus more on traction, get it tuned on the dyno & keep it nice and streetable. It'll be awesome to see itwhen it's done.

[@lukekindred1999]

I know this isn't an Evo but God it makes me want an Evo 3

[@rdtp1010]

I have just recently brought a 1990 lancer gsr 3 door hatch that has had the 2ltr 4G63 conversion. unfortunatly its only front wheel drive but it is still a little rocket. I have not seen many of these cars around. Its great to see that someone is still playing with the old 4G63. I am currently doing a new fuel system and bigger turbo for mine as well as bigger front mount. I look forward to seeing some more videos on this car :)

[@callumprior6957]

Best video in a while in my opinion. Good work guys

[@DStead2239]

always use a little silicone on the corners of the gasket over the cam humps. I have a rear mechanical lsd from evo3 if you want one.. I'm in vic. I was going to replace my evo1 viscous lsd but never did.

[@alandrade8083]

I love those cars. friend of mine did that same swap except he did the evo 3 body kit. he used the galant 2.4 crank to stroke the engine port the head upgraded the turbo injectors and flash tune it. it's running around 350/400hp

[@lorollinls]

This video was a nice change from the fullboost norm!

[@mhsalammahfuz9429]

My favourite Evo 😍

[@mitsubishikid1187]

at 3:40, in the us we got the rvr but it was not called that here, nor did it come with a turbo motor, but we did get them with awd, it was marketed under 3 names and makes, Mitsubishi expo, Eagle summit wagon and Plymouth colt vista.

[@nismofreak33]

man. these things were so fucken cool back in the day.

[@jacob-67tune18]

Love these GSR and Evo 1-2-3 models!

[@youtubasoarus]

Stunning. Absolutely love these. Many people will pass them over because they don't look like much, but driving them is a pure slice of heaven. Wonder how those injectors are holding up (if original).

[@matthewsmyk9091]

reminds me of my vr4. battery relocate to boot and then shimmy a better air intake rewire fuel pump solid intercooler pipes - the old plastic swells on boost exhaust manifold most issues are age related then she is a sweet car

[@matthewsmyk9091]

plus above can all be done on the cheap

[@StickGuy0000000001]

geez that guy in the subaru hatch was getting abit close for comfort..

[@aaroncrossling]

Jamal Evo hitting the dirt every turn

[@s1krryo626]

Jamal Evo though he was ken block lol

[@SteveLemon]

I remember this car, owner was playing with it when I was playing with mine.. although I thought it was a vr4 motor.. cool to see it's still very similar to when I knew it.. a set of Evo 3 suspension arms and diffs would be awesome.

[@iananderson4897]

I was thinking about yours while watching this.

[@derickstiffs9051]

I think if you are going to drive it often e85 will be a good choice, if not i would stick with 98 being less corrosive on the fuel system, but some re003's and front and rear diff upgrade would be good and some good quality engine, gearbox and diff oils and brake/clutch fluid would make a good all round car without going to extreme money wise.

[@richardharrison8061]

Evo 3 owner here ;-)

[@FRAN6A]

Hit up Winton again, except without a yellow WRX trying to wipe the GSR out.

[@MrDVader]

Awesome video, love this new direction for the channel

[@V8Series]

The front bumper is an Evo bumper? It doesn't seem to flare in the wheel cover area

[@fullboost]

It's an E1 copy designed to suit GSR guards.

[@V8Series]

@@fullboostCool, I have a gti (the fwd one with the N/A 4g93) and I really wanted that bumper because the oem completely kills the esthetics.. Where did you get that bumper?

[@fullboost]

It came on the car, I don't think you can get them anymore, it came from Perth.

[@V8Series]

@@fullboost Too bad, here in Portugal it's impossible to get anything early Evo related, I guess I'll have to make do with the oem one.. Thank you anyway and keep up with that awesome project, one of the finest cars on KZbin 😀

[@thesammorley]

Love the early evo look! Would like to see the fuel system done and see the improvement from e85 alone.

[@wildyzf]

Great vid, love these cars. Put some good tyres on it and take it to the track!

[@MrKev1990in]

😍that's a great car, tdo6 makes for better top end an a kick at 4000 rpm. fun!!

[@badopinion]

Nice evo you got there. How I wish us yanks had a car market like yours :D

[@damstachizz]

LSDs and respray, add power later.

[@noisebmx]

I own a 1997 GSR with the 4g93t. Evo 4 shape and has the Evo 3 brakes upgraded to the front. I love mine but they're a real mongrel of parts put together! Would love a set of coilovers for it but haven't got a clue which ones would fit! 😭 No one has these in the UK (jdm import). Anyway keep the work up, love this era of Lancer.

[@aussie_lambo2714]

that thing is beautiful!!

[@WHYxSOxSERiiOUS]

i wanna see this get as many bolt on from later evo's as possible, i'd like to see the shitty bits of paint fixed up and a good buff overall. such shame Mitsubishi arent making these at all anymore :(

[@kickdabucket]

WHYxSOxSERiiOUS I'd also like to know what other evo parts can bolt on i have an evo 2 with the 3 body kit

[@vegasmaori6621]

Dont dress it up as as a evo that makes you look like a tryhard

[@justinspiderholden]

td05/6 hybrid, set of kelford cams, link ecu and lots of boost

[@fullboost]

+Justin Holden It already has a vipec which is same as Link.

[@SomervilleMetalWorks]

Cool video always liked gsr's. As for upgrades fuel/e85/retune and some lsd's hit up the circuits again.

[@cecilobiyo1608]

thats an rvr engine? are there chances that the rvr transmission can fit in there as well?

[@Syrephine]

I have a question my husband here in Japan has a Mitsubishi Lancer GSR Evo 4G63. His mechanic today said he needed to replace the rear pillow balls but we are having a hard time finding them to order or do they need to be custom made? Please help. We don’t know what to do

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

you dont see these anymore on the roads,back in the 90s they were huge! they launch like crazy too

[@rabidsminions2079]

The original early 90's Japanese turbo cars way before Euro turbo cars of today.

[@웡키-c7d]

wow good car~~I have evo1 and now I have a problem The cooling fan does not work and I need help~~

[@drake5557]

Sick car. I drive an 88 conquest, which you guys had in Australia as starions, but only the flat body ones with SOHC 4G63's. I want an Evo 8, but I'm a poor high-school student and need to fix my car.

[@fullboost]

I've see a few with dohc conversions, if its tastefully done with the right offset rims, they can still look great.

[@drake5557]

Thinking about it, you guys didn't get the 5 bolt wide body rims. Those are the best stock rims of any car.

[@madrx2]

Any chance this car is located in the Mooroolbark area?, I think I may have seen it. I've got some plates sitting here (JETGSR) See if he's interested lol.

[@alycestapleton]

wow it weights almost nothing just like with my e30 with a late model engine conversion

[@oldfashionedwrx3574]

looks like a fun car to drive!

[@barragu7189]

Nice, car, they sure do bring back memories, theres obviously a world of things you could do that have most probably been mentioned above and below. You could also pop past and take a ride in Marks Evo from JPC, he was nice enough to take me out for a spin in that thing a week or 2 ago and i believe he is somewhere around the 360 kw mark ? Above all , I think the main thing you should do to is that no ones mentioned is just go out and drive it, enjoy it for what it is , there is a reason why you've held onto this beast for so long and sometimes you may need to jump back in the drivers seat to remind you that. Hoping you guys are well , Regards Georgie!

[@fullboost]

Thanks George. We know JPC quite well, they did the current tune.

[@alycestapleton]

nice build love the old bits are missing tho this car looks claen as f sweet as

[@Camhin1]

Make it a handling monster!

[@stevenshipman6629]

it's beautiful

[@alex11055]

seeing this video makes me miss my own lancer cc, also my first car, it started out as a 1994 auto front wheel drive non turbo 1.8 CC lancer, i swapped a manual gearbox and a 4g63 in it, still FWD tho, i remember thrashing it on the mountains and crashing 3 times then fixing it again. After that, i just bought other cars and eventually it sits in the garage for more than 2 years, now its given to a friend driving it since i left australia....pretty sad about it~

[@jozakroat]

love the potenza re003

[@wackomanx]

I think the 1996 & 1997 Honda Integra Type R had 4x114.3 lug patterns and you might be able to find a set of Volk TE37 in the right offset if you search for those cars. I never did care about the name brand. I bought Rotas and abused the piss out of them and they never gave me any problems. I had the Rotas in Spoon SW388 and Mugen MF8 styles. Those TE37s you pictured are extremely rare. They are the Top Secret Company colored wheels. You have those style TE37's on your car and Smokey Nagata might come visit you on the highway at 300+ kph.

[@jrbuch]

More vids like this please guys. LSD, E85 and maybe something like an Evo 9 turbo with a little bit more boost if you can get that to fit.

[@jjsorenavki7005]

Standard evo 1-3 Cooler is good for 220-230wkw,, Most Stock replacement ones 300wkw, unless its something like a Plazmaman or hks/greddy Cooler But the stock Motor on this aint going to make it to 300wkw Maybe 230-240, with a setup that works not a lag monster, Tell him to Look into a PAR Crate Motor, I beam for around 15k, 800+hp, its around 11-13k for a H beam Spec motor with tune included so your not paying that much more for Full peace of mind Build a H beam is only warranted to make 600whp 650+ is Pushing it,

[@jmoore9806]

so he went smaller cams ? he had 272 and got evo cams instead ? i dont understand most people go for big cams no go smaller..... i know he said he wanted it to be smother drive in traffic but towards the end he said he dosnt mind if its ruff

[@fullboost]

Yes, the engine had Camtech 272s, the car hunted a lot down low, I think a lot of it was due to the old ECU, I had the cams removed before the newer ECU went in.I would much rather a punchy powerband and sacrifice some top end. Unless the engine is rebuilt, I doubt the cams will go back in.

[@andresjavier6322]

Nice

[@JustGeminis]

Hey man nice GSR . I was always a fan of this lighter bodied car , did these have a low ratio gearbox as well ? I just remember one a long time ago and it was crazy fast going through the gears .

[@fullboost]

Yep, they are quite short ratio 5spd, with final drive around 4.9

[@shoominati23]

Chuck a 3000GT V6 in it and go after the time attack records or runway sprints

[@175myles]

Fuel pump with new injectors and the car should run pretty sweet.

[@Frietpan]

just clean it up / do the e85 upgrade and or ignition/injectors and the paint ;p

[@makeupplaytimewithnicola5768]

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone can give me some advice please? I have an 95 lancer GSR (similar to this), and want to by a 4g63t out of an evo 9, but was wondering if I’m able to put this engine in? Cheers

[@fullboost]

No, from EVO4 onwards they change the orientation of the engine/gearbox. You can get mount kits from NZ, but the entire upgrade would cost a lot.

[@quikgt]

Great episode, and glad u found the 10 mm lol. A 35r plus fuel and exhaust upgrades to run about 20 psi on pump and 30 + on meth would wake it up without going extreme:)
