This is for all who want to do a conversion to your existing Auto Mitsubishi 4 cylinder machine. this is your basic checklist
PARTS REQUIRED
1. Gearbox Assembly
2. Gearbox mount
3. Inner Axle cups
4. Flywheel ( 5 hole for the 4G1X, 6 Hole for early 4G6X & 7, hole for 4G9X and other 4G6X engines)
5. Clutch Disc (8" for most models up to 1.5, 8.5" on 1.6 up)
6. Pressure plate
7 Release bearing
8. Gearbox starter (MD 192227 for left side engines, MD301048 for right side I think)
9. Clutch master cylinder & lines (Hydraulic type)
10. Clutch Slave cylinder & lines (Hydraulic type)
11. Clutch Cable (Cable type)
12. Shifter assy with cables
13. Clutch pedal ( hook type for cable type, hole and pin for hydraulic )
14. Brake/ Accellerator assembly. (smaller brake pedal to fit with clutch pedal)
15. Gear oil (75w 90)
16. Axle grease
NOTE: Some models (CS especially) seem to have an issue where the Auto ECU will NOT work woth the conversion. Symptoms include, rough idling, stuttering on acceleration, stalling, etc)
This can be remedied by getting a manual ECU. CK and CB need not apply
ELECTRICALS
Electrical wise there isn't much you need to do.
First thing you will notice prior to installing the gearbox, is that the car will not start. In this case the inhibitor switch, (which is the small circular component on the tranny, which the transmission harness connects to)
1. Unplug the transmission ECU (If equipped)
2. Identify the harness that connects to the transmission inhibitor switch. Usually a small black rectangular connector with 2 large wires and about 5 or more smaller wires...
3. Find the two largest wires in the connection...a Black with Yellow Stripe and the Black with Red stripe
4. Make sure that the shifter is in Neutral and make sure also it's switched off. Take the two wires mentioned in step 3 and join them together. You should be able to start the car now...
REVERSE
The other smaller wires in the connector are used to illuminate the interior position switches (P, R, N, D, 2, 1) and also the reverse lights.
1. Locate the small red wire on the harness. Switch the vehicle to "on" position and check to see if the wire is producing power. Switch off car and check to see if it shuts off.
2. The next wire is a bit tricky. usually the other wire in earlier lancers is a small green colour and in the Ck models a brown wire. However if you don't know, then repeat step 5, but do not turn it off.
3. Put the gear shifter into reverse. (DO NOT START CAR!)
4. Run a feed from the small red wire and connect it to any of the other small wires in the connector. This will not cause any damage. Have someone looking in the rear of the vehicle to confirm which wire engages the lights.
5. Once you have all wires found, join them to the reverse switch on the gearbox. It will only have a 2 pronged connector. Most cases you may need to make a small connector as most used ones are removed with the harness.
6. With vehicle in "on" position, engage reverse with the shifter and have someone check to see if your light come on.
7. Once all wires connected, go ahead and clean up the installation. Solder where needed and use a good brand electrical tape. Seal away and you're good to go
