The Official CS Lancer Thread!

[mety57]

aye fellas i,m thinking about putting a cone air filter on meh intake (4g15 gdi) i notice how small the front scoup hole is do u guys think any engine probs can form from this

[A.W.O.L]

AWOL

how long the 2 pipes run?

till the firewall or two pipes and 2 exhaust barrel

AFAIK it runs to the firewall or even under the engine an then is 2" or 2.5" pipe out...
I feel u'd loose compression if it's separated like that...our lil 1.5 not puttin out the kind power those V6 an V8 does put out

it should look somting like this..>>

[venum]

yeah

that is why i was asking yuh

till firewall or a lil beyond that will be great

any further will cause a loss of power

before the firewall will cause a decrease in power output

DM here have two of the tip-tronic CS Lancers... 1 Grey & 1 Silver

[daniel135]

also i was considering cutting the cam and making it a half race cam.think the cvt would handle that?dont want to go turbo so i just thinking of some stuff to modify our 4g18 engine.i was thinking extractors,cutting the cam,and running a cold air intake,then putting a gearbox!what yall think?

[mety57]

hmmmm no reply

[EVA Unit-01]

^^^ lol

Zero, u get d bulbs yet? i mite b in POS tom, lemme kno if i cud chek yuh...

[turbo_beast369]

daniel135 extractors, full exhaust, CAI or K&N drop-in replacement and gearbox sounding good but I eh know bout that cutting cam ting...u would no longer have a smooth idle...if u willing to try then go ahead...first time I heard of that...and I'm sure the cvt could handle it...is not like if u gettin major hp gains from it....

[ZeroOne]

^^^ lol

Zero, u get d bulbs yet? i mite b in POS tom, lemme kno if i cud chek yuh...

tried to go for it today but rbtt system giving trouble

[mety57]

how allyuh treating meh ruff so ah new to cs

[turbo_beast369]

mety57 I didnt understand your question...wha kinda problems u talkin bout?

[daniel135]

with cutting the cam,it idles like how a subaru does,and there is a significant increase with hp.my dad had one in a sunny and you can feel the difference..machine shops have the specs and they cut the cam to suit.ask around bout it.its kinda like those aftermarket cams that you can get for other vehicles

[QG]

LOL...since weekend rbtt was doing over the system. So link cards or access to accounts are temporarily out of service.
People's pay went in but they can't acces it until some time during the week they said.

I have a question- When doing an engine swap, the odo reading changes to the current mileage of the purchased used engine, or...does it remains the same from previous engine readings???

[GLXXXTACY]

hey guys. i need sum help on a newly experienced problem. here goes

i drive a 2002 cs3 glx lancer doin abt 170k and its the 4g18 engine with 2 fans. recently i noticed that when i turn the ignition to on/acc, the two fans come on and the fans remain running about 10 secs after i remove the key from the ignition/shut the engine off. this never happened my entire life and i am now worried.

please mitsu owners, any sort of info would be appreciated. thanks again

[QG]

Sounds like a faulty relay!

I'm sure someone here can give you proper guidelines and steps you can follow to DO IT YOURSELF (DIY)

It remains the same as the mileage is stored on the circuit board in the IP.

happens on all 3 of the CS3 Lancers that I maintain(ed) from day 1

doesn't seem liek a problem, because twhen the engione is cut off, no power should be supplied to teh fans unless teh wiring designed to specifically allow it

[TURBOT]

Fellas that problem that yall getting with the fans running for a few seconds after the ignition is turned off is a sensor problem. it happened to my car a long time ago. it was sent in to DM to fix and they changed it and everything went back to normal. now the problem is that i cannot remember the name of the sensor but i thiink it costed about $1000.00 and is located somewhere near the radiator. dunno if that helped at all

[EVA Unit-01]

^^^so wait nah...why do u have to adjust the lens vertically?

uh... 2 make sure it where it supposed to be???

wha brand and colour temp HID u bought?

VVME H4 Bi-Xenon - 4300K

[GLXXXTACY]

[GLXXXTACY]

When last you check the A/C?

Cause the A/C system controls the tripping on/off.

The cooling system also controls tripping on/off.

[EVA Unit-01]

so i found the adjustment screws for my (triangular) headlight, and thought i'd share with you guys...

one's near the top of the inner side and the other's near the bottom of the outer side (inner and outer relative to car, of course)
