7k for a ck conversion. Engine and tranny complete
Ac hadda do over. So 800$ and then wire up and exhaust 1800$
Say 10k more or less

more or less sound boy , i totalled 11k for the entire project didnt have to do nothing to the ac though the gdi compressor bolted right back up so they just tied it to the side of the frame when they removed the engine

3500$ to change a engine? you cannot be serious

men does feel hard to pay 1200$ down south yes :/

Biggs, the correct cvt oil for the CS is SPIII (or SP3)

yea regardless of the bottle color it should have SPIII on it with mitsu branding logo etc

gonna change shocks, shock heads, rack end, rod end and cradle bushings

all those parts gone bad or you just changing for changing sake?

all bad Zero

not completely dead, but far gone enough to change

200,000+ km and they were never changed, still have the factory fit

pretty damn good I would say

[ZeroOne]

I see.

Those parts last pretty long.

that $3500 is justified bc u got back d car in a matter of days...a convo by a mech i know in central costs $1500 and d electrican might take anywhere between $800-$1000...plus u gonna be without d car for 2 weeks avg...

so....not a bad trade off dj

Changed out my tranny yesterday, finished like 12 dis morning, ran in to a lil problem, where the torque converter was different from mines, so I had to return it to get one with d fly wheel attached to it, she runs sweet again, but I discovered a lil problem a while ago, the tranny oil is leakin, where d axels goes into the transmission

[Ted_v2]

it has a seal that could change. check that

[nightman22]

Can anyone tell me how many bottle of transmission oil is needed to full my cs5a lancer when changing it .
Thanks.

I told him have a gd day and walked off...someone correct me if I'm wrong please.

what is d correct fluid...2002 CS3A GLX

Sent from my GT-S5360L using TriniTuner mobile app

I've bought the SPIII in the black bottle before and the cost per quart is less than $100 (can't remember exact price).
Stopped getting it in the white bottle for a couple years now.

If it uses same as CS3A CVT, then I last got some at Chase Village Auto Supplies. You can try there.

hey the other prices are good but the $3500 for the mechanic is robbery without a mask .....the front and side engine mount r the same , the ck tranny mount will work in the same spot and the ck axles will have to be used ....the back mount will have to make a bracket no way that worth 3500.......

[ZeroOne]

wow....fellas paying a lot for tranny fluids. I Not paying more than $22

thats not SPIII?

[Ted_v2]

anyone have a cs wagon? reviews?

[xtech]

Nope.....

Don't follow my lead... I use a huge oil cooler. It keeps the oil fresh an my tranny happy.
