Does anyone have any tips or pics of there CAS setup?

I'm using a VR4 one which has the black rounded cap, I have seen others
with a flat metal cap. I believe my one is larger?

CAS will simply not fit in at all with gear box. Have tried panel beating tool for chassis rails (hydraulic piston thing) to massage in the fire wall but damn thing was leaking.

Cheers,

P.S will a EVO 6 CAS work?

Pull the motor forward 15mm like was done to install my twin cam by slotting the mounts which is in IMHO better than the BBH method
PS My cas has the flat metal cap as I used a HG Gallant GSR head so if you can find one over there it may solve your problem by swaping them over if the GSR cas is lower/smaller than the VR4 unit.

HG Galant GSR (which NZ don't get by the way) will be the early type which most pre-facelift JDM E39A Galant VR-4s and other N/A models like the GTi-16V, Viento, MX, VX etc) will have. I'm fairly sure the facelift VR-4 (and HH Galant GSR) CAS is about the same size, if not smaller.

Personally myself I would just massage the firewall a little rather than shift the motor forward.

Chur,

as I said the tool that panel beaters use to fix chassis and floor rails, small box with a piston that pumps out, much like a brake caliper.

wedged between the head and firewall to push in fire wall without having to bash it and make a nicer shape.

but the one i was lent leaks when pumped up. would be the perfect tool for the job though.

but my unit is VR4 evo 0 which has the black plastic dome rather than the flat metal cover. and is quite a bit bigger, going to hit up the mitsi wrecker and see if he will do a swap.

yeah it's the same CAS that's on my Evo VR-4 but I'm sure that most facelift VR-4s have it, along with Evo1-3.

use a hyundai one if u cant find the mits one, the best is the one with the long wiring tail hanging out..

good luck bending the firewall enough to clear it! that'd look pretty dodgy..

Thanks for the advice guys.

I moved the engine foward about 15mm. smaller CAS will fit no worries.
