JA, JB, JD

[flav]

The JD intercoolers are mounted vertically like normal. Have never seen a horizontal one in a car, only in drawings in mitsubishi manuals.

My car was dead stock original and the cooler was mounted vertical.

JD also apprantly has the bigger diff and a smaller TC-05 turbo. The washer bottles in the front are also slightly different to suit the intercooler pipes.

There was a GSR-IV released in Japan .
I posted a rather extensive list of all the Starion models in Japan and O.S . some time ago , if you do a search you should be able to turn it up .

But people don't search, that's why this thread exists :(

[redzone]

also another rather important thing i just remembered the other day, is that the series 2 JA had the improved wiring harness, with thicker wiring and better connectors, basically the same as the JB stuff. series 1 JA has mostly black connectors in the engine bay around the eci throttle body, later ones were like a reddish brown colour.

improved wiring harness is another reason why a series 2 JA or later car is more desirable, they are a lot more reliable :beer

JD also has different length torque tube.

Oh man..... BURN!!! It was me that started this post but I did search for GSR-IV and JC but got bugger all. I'm just lazy

[redzone]

the info was in a pic i believe so a search of GSR-IV might not have picked it up

[benny]

if i remember right isn't 4 in japan bad luck?? like our 13.. if i'm right that'd be why no gsr-iv

[Mr Ralliart]

You are right about 4 being bad luck in Japan as the pronunciation 'shi' is the same as 'death' .

But as I said , there was a GSR-IV . I've got pictures of them ( Redzone has seen them) , I've seen them on the road , I even got parts off of one .

no rear spoiler
open diff
valnas computer pac man thingy
aparently it had tc05 b4 i bought it but was replaced when failed.
vinyl rear seats (front i think are from another car)
black (not sitting flush with body) pillar vents (stick out a bit)

[Mr Ralliart]

A bitsa by the sounds of it . . .

It's a JA of course . Could have been a GSR-III or GSR-X , but it sounds like a few things have been pirated off of it . Should have a rear spoiler and power windows at least .

1992? do you mean 1982?. post some pics

1992? do you mean 1982?. post some pics

This is my old car. Yes, it is a 1982 GSR-III Jap import. No rear spoiler as the Jap models didn't come with them. He means manual door mirrors. It used to have electric mirrors on the front fenders, hence the controls in the cabin. Plugs for mirrors are still in the engine bay. It originally came out with TC05, but seals went and it was easier/cheaper to replace it with a TC06. Black pillar vents are JD/Widey style ones.
