Looks like someone broke the nipple off and tried to either plastic weld or JB weld it. Was this a recent purchase?

May 31st update:Long time since last post but been training my new mechanic even though she is only 3 weeks old she made it to her first car show with...

Starion and Luv is the current projects, GS300 daily and Panda talon is sitting up there quietly

Spring time photos! And did upgrade my stock exhaust to a Mookeeh 3" Turbo back exhaust. Way better than OEM & no muffler... Sound Vid coming soon.

Spring time photos! Of the fleet of projects. Which is your favorite? 70s, 80s, 90s? All Mitsubishi powered! 4G63 squared and G54B. Cherry blossoms for the win!

#olivestarion update. Started doing some maintenance by rebuilding the axles, replacing sway bar links front and rear, axle seals replaced and some #mks front wheel bearings. Waiting on one more tie rod to come in to do all the tie rod ends. Need a new exhaust then I will be ready to roll! More...

No major updates, but swapped out some parts store yellow shocks with some rancho adjustable rear shocks. Great difference matches well with my QA1 adjustable coilovers. LUVLEE matches well with the Panda.

Happy new years! Not much of an update. But dropped the trans again to get the torque converter sent out to Precision Industries to add the sprag back in. I want it to be more street-able and keep the temps down a bit in the trans. Took it for a drive and the Panda needed to stretched its legs...

Well I pulled the trigger on a 86 starion (1986 only had manual seat belts and color is Olive Gray, 86 only color). I think I paid a little too much but good base to start off with. Don't know exactly what I want to do yet either factory restore, 4g63 or 2J. What you guys think? What's Pros and...

This is the Build Thread for 1986 Mitsubishi Starion aka Olive. Reply below.

Beater brunch car show. Clouds looked cool that day. Mini photo shoot with the Panda.

Another suggestion if you want to get rid of a rad cap is to use a mid-90s hyundai sonata thermostat housing. Part number from Dorman 902-5108 I also used the hole to hold my Fan temp thermo switch to run my fans. Switch is set @ 180degs (down fall is can't be turned on manually by ECMLink)...

I like the Radiator! Also the coolant pipe, want to make me one too? :-) Mine was a cut down oem eclipse water pipe to make it fit ok.

NOT FOR SALE! But I guess if someone won the lotto and had money to pay me out for 3 years of my life building this 4G63LUV (still an ongoing project). I would say $50k (dreaming of course), reasonably would be $25K (maybe lol).

Modified or Stock Chevy LUV? Mitsubishi or Isuzu motor?

What's your favorite? Top, bottom, or left? RWD4G63, AWD4G63, 2JZ-GE

I think I had similar issues with my Ebay half rad on my 4G63LUV. But it would run hot with load of any kind so I swapped to a late 60s mustang radiator. I dont think I shared on my thread that I swapped radiators (I dont know why lol)...

Been running E85 for over a decade and has never seen pump gas (maybe a gallon or 2 over the 10years), I get very little black goo. I sent out my 2200cc injectors to be cleaned every couple of years but they were not far off before and after cleaning. But I was recommended this with every fuel...

Washed the panda...and Big white (got an oil change too)

Cam Swap update! Changed out the stocks for BC101 cams (basically 272ish). Easier to do timing belt area with more room than a frame next to it. Also changed out the gas gap on the tank for easier fill and took out the crappy ebay gas cap. Great day for a photo shoot too.

Always :) Its either they hate it or Luv it. Some don't understand that it originally came with an Isuzu motor...keeping it original LOL Mitsubishi haha. There are folks that are shocked...or disappointed...why comments...kool comments... or just plain dont know whats happening (looking at the...

Back from the trans shop and to the 1st car show of the year. Broke a sprag again and now in a 400+ classic car/ truck show called Cruzin to Colby in Everett. Awesome time with family and friends. Installed a Precision Industries Converter for the TH350 9.5" spragless converter stall 4500rpm

rarely happens on 2g compared to 1g, but check for crack in clutch pedal. You can only see it when pushing clutch pedal. I had that happen with my ACT2600 I used for many years and I guess to much pressure on the pedal.

Recently Acquired trailer with my 2012 Sierra 6.2L (towing the LUV to the trans shop once again :-( )

this happen couple of weeks ago in my 4G63 Chevy LUV. still digging through to see what exactly happen. Its either Trans or converter that started this mess, either way not good... Trans is a TH350 that has less than 1000 miles

Haha I wish it was that easy... I forgot to add the carnage, I dropped the pan to check fluid Its either trans or converter or both, not good either way. Trans is under warranty but converter was built by another company and if converter took out the trans, then I am screwed lol :cry: :cry:

From the lake to the trailer. Going back to the transmission shop it goes. 3rd gear is whining...

One is not like the other for some reason :) Bent an OEM rod with my original 7 bolt with 120k about 9 years ago.

Better with a 4G63 :-) and somewhat unique

Agreed! I dont think I can let go of my Luv

Happy Sunday! Few updates: Added some QA1 DS402 coilovers with 10" 275lb springs, polished some upgraded cams BC 101(soon to be installed), also did trans flush with new filter and oil change with...

Or it could be a bad sending unit

I need to stop buying project cars and start working on them. 4G63 LUV, 4G63 Talon, soon to be LS GS300, plus outside the shop my daily AWD Eagle summit wagon + GMC Sierra 6.2L Truck + 08 subi (wifes).

Did some research on what would fit on these Luv...DS402 from QA1 should work, but trying out different spring loads

Happy New Years!! very small update... not much got done over Nov & Dec, slow progress I guess. Working on fitting these coilovers. Trying to decide to see which spring is better. 10in 275lb or 9in 450lb. Removing the stock torsion bars up front. Any suggestions on with a 4g63 block that's...

Attended last few car shows of the year with the wifey and still surprising people that there is no V8 in this LUVLEE. Happy Fall everyone...

Went to a couple of classic car shows local in town with the wifey. Surprised a couple of people instead of a typical V8 there is a Mitsubishi valve cover in the bay haha...

A 48'x24'x14' shop came with when we bought the house. Fits 6 cars (or 7 with one on the lift) but I have a couch and tv and work area in the back so most of the time there are 3-4 cars inside the shop. Has 3 10ft doors, a ceiling fan and 3 electric small shop heaters. I wanted to insulate the...

Long time update.... Chuckanut Rally 2021, #LUVLEE got to finally stretched its legs this year and took a cruise around a nice sunny day! Cruisin' with the wifey and #4g63luv! Back in April 2021. Then around 2 years ago I first started this LUV truck with the 4g63 then... Talon sneaking in the...

do you have a picture of the clutch fork without pressing the clutch pedal? Is it more the half way toward drivers side? I got confused of the 1st couple of pictures of fork being pressed by clutch pedal

Hello All, Just need a little confirmation. I am assuming its all drive train noise with all I have installed. So recently I just installed rear diff bushings (Delrin not alum) and now the rear end area is making a loud noise only on Decel and in gear, but no noise while accelerating or not in...

Used the mighty max max and some tweaking to them.

The sun peaked out for a bit, decided to take some pictures of the LUV

Welcome, Please fill out your profile with what dsm you have. This looks to be a stock 2g turbo T-25.
