Going mivec

[Animal Pak]

Ok. so i'm driving a 4g92 sohc lancer. D only ting is ....d car startin to give real real problems.

sensors going bad, random rattles dat nobody know how to fix etc.

So i tinking bout going Mivec. Done check new age in bamboo #1 and dey give me a complete price of around 15k for everything. Engine tiptronic tranny.....the whole set up....

Jus want to know if dis is a decent price or should i even bother with d mod and jus get myself something newer??

Any relevant feedback would be greatly appreciated.

[VW_Exec]

you can get complete turbo setups for around that price or a few $ more.
im almost certain a 4g93T was around that price.

however, with turbo applications, there are further incidental costs (brakes, fuel, etc.) and the install price will increase.

so if it's just a straight swap n/a, then MIVEC option sounds ok.

my personal opinion - it's a tad bit overpriced.

[*KRONIK*]

it's a tad bit overpriced.

it is but these days ppl setting the market price for everything

because 1 person willin to pay "X" amount everyone after have witht eh same amount of money......

if u only knew how much these fellas duz pay for a front cut........
u go feel sick to pay 15K for a engine

[2nil]

u know ah while aback dat same mivec setup was $9k at cosmos.......
i personally find 15K is way too much 4 dat setup,is better u go 4g93t than u have to spend dat kinda cash..........

[rjaggs]

check around, you will get a better price elsewhere. If you could get an engine only i may be able to organise a tranny for you

[Animal Pak]

well so i've been told....but i real bummy to go turbo cause at the end of d day d car will more or less be a daily driver. Too many conversions and i doh want to b pushing boost every day.


I looking for somewhere dat selling d setup cheaper but like dese parts hard to find??

[DriFT_KiNG]

15 g's is quite high , but that is the price you will pay in most places you check.
I know someone that recently did a ck2 conversion to mivec and paid approx. $5000.00 for the entire setup incl tranny, axels, shifter etc
He said that he purchased it from Bicks in Penal. I was quite shocked that he was able to get a 4g92 mivec for that price

You can check them if you like...

[Animal Pak]

wha d mackeson?? well yea ......if is so den i for sure in dat...............

Now jus to find a mech who capable of proper installation

[QG]

15K for that lil 1600 mivec engine???

Hoss check Bicks in Penal dread.

[DriFT_KiNG]

it have a few good ones around, let us know your location and we can point you in the right direction...

[Animal Pak]

So i checked Bick's .......dey outta stock.....and new age outta stock as well...apparently the engine is a hot seller now or so they say.

Either which way...i more or less make up my mind.....i making d switch.....

So now i looking at selling my old engine

[-sMoKe-]

i called new age and they r calling 22,000 for a 4g93t and mivec gearbox....i nearly fall dong wen i hear dat...and as KRONIK said...everyone selling that price or around it

[-sMoKe-]

if any one know where i can get the 93t engine...please pm meh!

[SCHOLARS]

nothing to lose guaranteed

[star323]

every single mivec owner would tell you that goin mivec is askin for trouble... from experience if you lookin for speed then you have to be willing ot throw out cash and throw it at the 93t not mivec!! if yuh just want a workin engine to replace the old one is bess yuh dont go mivec..

[Cardo-MR]

So y it is all yuh gehn on like mivec is "Bad"..........Mivec is ah engine yuh have to make sure yuh no wat you doin & give it care......If not obviously it will give u headache.

Also if yuh driving habits are bad......what you expext?

[Animal Pak]

really? i talkto a few ppl who mivec and dey say it wukking bess....

i mean....engine is engine ent?

once u doh rough it up no stress....unless u driving a megane?

[SCHOLARS]

as ah mivec owner it real sweet real nice power it feel good and it fun to drive and my mivec working best cuz i beat real 4ag20v, b16a, rb20de and det rb25de and countless sr20 de but u going to feel good until ah man who running boost run up on yuh ass. as with every new thing u will enjoy cuz is ah big difference compared to the engine u have now but when u get used to it u will get like how i was... sheit i should have bought d damn gsr... take it from me either service the SOHC or go 4g93t cuz boost is the only solution.

[Cardo-MR]

SCHOLARS, yuh now explain yuh self dey..... buh yuh cud make a mivec faster than a boost car by proper tuning with a management & spending a lil money on cams,....dat shud be bout enuff to drive a boost man crazy

[Lean Wid IT]

the amount of money you goin to spend on a N/A car to beat a boost car is best you invest into boost and done...unless u jus have reall money and want to prove a point

[Cardo-MR]

Buh the thing wit Boost is men does geh thirsty for more.............which to me i rather spend d money on all motor N/A

Thats just me

[QuickPc's]

allyuh stop bad talkin miveec so th man cud buy one an i cud get ah sale on ah sensor or somethin...

[Animal Pak]

jedd i feel when i reach d time for boost i jus goin to get a evo an done.....

i really nuh feeling to confident taking my ole lancer and goin turbo

[Lean Wid IT]

well there u have it mivec it is....u will enjoy it it's much better than the stock 1.6 jus treat it with care like any other engine

[Cardo-MR]

jedd i feel when i reach d time for boost i jus goin to get a evo an done.....

i really nuh feeling to confident taking my ole lancer and goin turbo

Animal Pak tuh took the words right out meh mouth......plus a Stock CK2/4 Chassis can handel so much of boost....up to a point. in being stock

[SCHOLARS]

jedd i feel when i reach d time for boost i jus goin to get a evo an done.....

i really nuh feeling to confident taking my ole lancer and goin turbo

Animal Pak tuh took the words right out meh mouth......plus a Stock CK2/4 Chassis wasn't built for boost....it would however be able to hold with a N/A like the mivec

WHAT U mean ck2 and ck4 wasnt build for boost. ck has one of the best handling compared to most cars in its class they hold corners really well at higher speeds. no major understeer and oversteer so please shed some light on that statement

[SCHOLARS]

plus u can only go so far NA. boost is out of that league boost carries u to the beyond and back remember teknet got 500hp out if his SOHC 4g92 and did 11sec and 12sec i believe

[fras]

Animal Pak tuh took the words right out meh mouth......plus a Stock CK2/4 Chassis wasn't built for boost....it would however be able to hold with a N/A like the mivec

Shouldn't say wasn't built for boost... and yes the mivec suspension is better!
