2013 Mitsubishi Mirage

[ice15]

R5 with the Evo X engine did pretty good! And there's a hillclimb car with a 4G63T





Placed 2nd in NC2/R5 in Rally Hokkaido a few years ago. Sayang walang works support to develop the car further.

Final results Rally Hokkaido 2?17

only the "body" is a Mirage

everything else was replaced

It's an Evo X chassis on top of Mirage's body.

the conversion is not difficult, pero making it look "clean" will be a challenge

tapos the Mirage platform is really bad, this car will only be good for drag racing.

They should use Lancer instead. It will some have clearance issues on the transmission. The V6 engine has more power than the existing engine, although it is heavier.

No it's actually not.

Check out the suspension orientation. It's completely different from the Evo X which uses conventional upright struts. On the Mirage R5 the shocks are actually angled backwards. It's a completely new bespoke design that has little to do with the Evo X aside from the Engine.


No Evo X shell here


I'm sure the Evo X strut tower isn't angled like this


Even the front struts are angled backwards. From a full on side view this is even more pronounced.

I've just figured, there's no Evo X floorpan and other parts there.. This is more like the GR Yaris and their rally versions. They took a Yaris chassis with some modifications and to adapt AWD.

Someday if Mitsubishi will response to Toyota's GR Yaris to create the ultimate Mirage...(Mirage Evo?)

Ready na para sa unang service ng bagong luma. Iyong brake fluid pang flush sa shop na lang kukunin.

DIYer dream engine bay. Madaling maabot ang service items. 70s/80s vibe iyong airbox snorkel, parang sa di-karburador.


Banawe shopping ulit.

NS40 yang battery mo? Wala bang issue kung undersized at naka-CVT?

Yes tama, N40 battery size. 1 click start naman, no issues sa CVT, alternator malamang nagdadala.

Xpander 4AT namin naka N40 din from factory, no issue din sa 4AT.

NS40 din sana ipapalit ko sa batt ko pero ayaw pumayag nung shop na tinanungan ko.

bakit daw kaya?

in my former cars,
when it came time to replace the battery, i would replace it with the next smaller size (if one such were available).
wala namang pagbabago sa battery life at sa starting power.
and yes, the battery is just to start the engine. once running, the alternator provides the electricity for everything.battery also provides trickle current for the toys when engine isn't running.

Dati sa amin kung anong maximum battery na kasya sa tray. Kunwari iyong Innova gas na maliit ang battery, pang diesel Innova ang pinalit.

Ngayon parang okay na minimum size na maayos pa rin ang start, para mas mura at less weight na dadalhin.

=====

Mga 1 week na din halos dala ang HB. Mas relaxing i drive sa errands. Okay sa makipot na daan, madaming allowance sa parking at maliit ang U turn. NVH niya mas tahimik kaunti sa base Mobilio. Mas malambot din upuan at suspension (comapred ulit sa aking base reference), kaya mas relaxed. Hindi matalbog or malikot sa likod. Loose nga ang steering or hindi gaanong direct ang response, possible siguro dahil may wear and tear na din sa suspension sa mid 20K. Okay pa naman ang stance kung 3 kaming maliit ang sakay. Average nga ang aircon hindi super lamig. Sakto space sa amin harap likod na below 5'5".

Iyong droning engine na sinasabi se reviews ay ito iyong parang bbrrrrrtttt sound sa slight acceleration ng mga 1.5k to 2k rpm. Medyo sporty naman ang dating sa akin hehe. Nakaka irita siguro kung sanay sa tahimik na makina. Madali naman maabot ang 60-80 kph sa mga 2K-2.5k rpm. Mukhang 80 pataas ang hirap. Sa ngayon mababa na 10kpl ang nakukuha, light weekend traffic. Expected sana nasa 12kpl.

Kapal ng body panels parehas din sa Mobiliio or Innova.

Tahimik? Hindi kaya pina sound deadening na yan ng previous owner?

Beats me why they don't want to. Playing safe probably. Humingi kasi ng pic ng current batt ko which is 1SM so I guess he wanted to just replace it with the same size. I didn't bother to push it any further. Naghanap na lang ako ng Amaron dealer.

Mas tahimik compared sa Mobilio E MT, na maingay din. Possible na may added sound deadening ng previous owner, or kasama sa facelift update. Heto ang mga nakita ko.

Sa hood.


Sa firewall engine side.


Sa firewall dashboard side.


Sa right front door, habang inaayos power window switch. May parang carpet lining sa may kaliwa, at styrofoam sa may kanan.

[bxr monkey]

Mga kaunting improvements. Bagong seat cover at matting.


Iyong cargo cover may mga biyak. Ni reinforce gamit rugby at tongue depressor. Kinulayan ng pentel pen para same ang kulay.

[bxr monkey]

Old school na pull up handles at vertical C pillar lines.


Round bug eye reflector para ma maximize ang H4.


Kakahatid lang kanina ng Mirage sa kanyang provincial assignment. Okay naman takbo sa SLEX na 80~100kph. Stable at komportable ang suspension. 90kph ang 2k rpm. NVH levels same sa Mobilio, mas tahimik kaunti siguro dahil 2k rpm or under madalas.

Overall sa buong trip mga 20kpl, ~70kms, nakuha sa 1hr 45 mins. 50~80kph madalas ang takbo, EDSA, SLEX, provincial roads sa Cavite ng mga 830am. Pinaka mataas na register ay 23kpl sa 60~80kph run sa SLEX.

Kakamiss mag drive ng A segment HB.

May nagpalit na pa ng CVTF dito? How much was it and who can do this properly?

Iyong sa amin drain ang fill lang. 2.5L CVTF nagamit. 450/L ang Mits na CVTF. 400 labor sa Speedyfix.

Kung proper na baba ng oil pan na nakita ko sa YT.
4.5L na Mits. CVTF.
Mits. CVT strainer - 1000 pesos
Mits. CVT filter - 900 pesos
1 tube ng silicon sealant.
Labor baka aabot ng 2k.

[bxr monkey]

Naayos na din ang power window switch sa front passenger side ng Mirage.



Listed as Xpander power window switch sa Shopee, galing Indonesia ang item.

Madali lang pala alisin. 1 screw sa may armrest handle. Tapos clips na. PW switch mismo naka clip lang din sa armrest.

Sakto pagpost ko nagloloko naman ang susi ayaw magstart. Kelangan ilagay ang susi sa slot malapit sa kambyo. Bago naman battery kakapalit lang. Pascan ko bukas.
