HELP NEEDED I have some basic questions and at this point I'm too afraid to ask. 1. What engines came with this car? YOM 1983. (According to my manual, it was manufactured with 4G3 series and 4G5 series engines.) 2. My engine number starts with G12B-CB-XXXX. What engine do I have? I believe it's 4G12B. 1400cc Orion with jet valves. 3. How can I find out what engine it had when it was manufactured? And know if it was swapped later on? (I just want to know if the current engine is the same model as it was designed to fit. I'm alright if a previous owner had replaced it with one of same model) 4. Does anyone have a engine repair manual for my engine? (I remember seeing a large collection of Lancer manuals somewhere on AL. But a search didn't show the ones I need)

Thank you, But how to identify the difference?
-
If you're going for a CS2 it would be wise to avoid GDI ones. Find a PFI. CS1 and CS3 are PFI by default

Thank you so much for all recomendations I was really confused with so much options..

Hi guys, Thinking of buying a VZR which has been put for sale for quite some time now. Its pretty beaten up and has been with quite a few hands. I'm interested in doing a full restoration on the car. Please advise/reccomend a good place to do a full restoration of the car. Parts are not a problem as I will importing the necessary from Japan and Australia. Appreciate the advise. Thanks.

The CS Lancer is really comfortable. I think it is really ahead of cars like Axio,121s.On the other hand fuel economy is not so great and you are getting a comparatively old car. Demio is a really good car. I know a Demio owner who had done over 200,000kms and he became a Mazda fan ever since.I have never driven one,but since it’s Mazda it would really shine in Driving and Performance.But it might not be as good as CS1 when it comes to comfort and space. For me, I really love sedans and good comfort, so I’d go with the Cs1 despite the age.

I too agree with you mate💪

Just found a old pic. Called the guy at the yard.said its was sold some time back. Actually there was 2 very similar looking cars. Sad to see 18-8006 has gotten nastier. Owner seems to have taken the rare and valuable parts out. Notice the alloy wheels it has now? Crappy.. @Octanehead any info about the current info on these?

This happened to me . About driving pleasure I expect car to provide comfort and refinement(not compared to Euros you know) in daily Colombo city driving for obvious reasons over handling. For long journeys I always travel with family and need them to be comfy as well for couple of hours of driving with all sorts of morons in the road. So yeah my driving pleasure is based on relaxed driving with relative comfort which Allion is pretty good at. I think I passed that age to be enthusiastic to drive in SL roads. OP can figure out what his definition of practicality and comfort suit for him and go for the car he want.

This car was(I think still is) in the peoples leasing yard in maradana, that was back in 2010. Guess they never sold it. They used to quote 800,000. Had some work to be done. Buy it and retsore it. But at first it will not be a daily. Ask for 500,000. Because if its not sold for so many years, it means they will gladly let go. Have atleast anothe 500k in hand for restoration. Was a good car, fully loaded too. Rare. But its not a cheap BMW to pose around(for now 😉 )

For me, I really love when the Turbo kicks in, specially in double cabs and jeeps. In relavance to the topic, Allions and Premios have a considerable amount of body roll when cornering, but the way you dive in to the corner can vary the amount. I’m still new to the car and I’m totally satisfied for what I’ve paid for. I moved from a car which is closer to 20 years old to 5 years old and paying an extra over 2 million. Really amazed how the same engine from the 121(with many tweaks) perform extremely quiet and economical while giving okish acceleration for day to day driving in a much heavier car. Also the extra 2million really showed me good people and bad people. Only about 4-5 were happy about what I had done and really appreciated. Others...yeah they were not happy at all

The most the car will need other than gen maintenance is a battery pack,.

Hi, First question is the reg paper in order with the details of the seller as the owner? is the a/c working? ( cooling nicely) get the ca checked at a garage who deals with euro cars or the dealer.GET A SEPARATE QUOTE FOR THE BODYWORK. get a suitable discount on price, not practical as a daily driver . Good luck,. TT.

Dear Friends will you please advise me average fuel consumption of Swift 2007 or 2008 (1.3) cars. Is it suitable to buy ? thanks
-
Okay, let's see - Allion and Premio owners find those cars enjoyable because of their comfort and smoothness. Which qualities of the Civic make driving that car an enjoyable experience for you?
-
see this is why some factors vary depending on the user - some folk acquire certain automotive tastes. Some like cars that are like libraries others like me find it dead boring. The most enjoyable ride i had ever was in an ancient VW doing 80-90 KMH rattling like hell and screaming like a banshee. It's good to have guys like you on the forum to get unbiased opinions on cars with mass-appeal.

😁Really I said what I felt.But it has more driving pleasure than the Axio Hybrid.I have driven most of the mainstream jap cars imported to SL and among them, I think GP5 is the best for driving. Allions and Premios has the barge like feeling.Numbest car I’ve ever driven was the Axio hybrid.Anyway I’m yet to push the Allion to a corner in an aggressive way😁 I think he is refering to the smoothness of the car as driving pleasure
-
I have not driven the A1 but when i closely inspect one I feel kind of let down - it's not in the same league as your average Audi ..true even though the A1 is a poor example for a euro.

My Mitsubishi Pajero jerks when accelerating from stop.
tiv replied to Neil Rodrigo's question in Mechanical problems
Looks like it's your gearbox mate, get that checked first When did u last change the oil? Sounds like a torque converter issue -
1. Lancer 2008 2. Demio 2007 3. Fit GD 1 And please ignore the others.😋

I’m really impressed about the fuel consumption of the Allion A15.Yeasterday had a journey to Anuradhapura through Matale and returned through Ella(340km) and It cost me only Rs.2700 using 95 octane.So the car had done closer to 19 kmpl which is kind of impressive for a car that weights 1.2tonnes plus 3 grown up people and using AC all the time.As I remember my 121 did around 15-16 for the same route.· 2 replies

It's a sad day for DIYers and petrolheads who know the value of this man's work. I must have been around ten years old when I first peered in awe through the pages of a Haynes manual. It was one for a Renault 12 that belonged to my grandfather. That manual is probably one of the reasons for why I don't mind some grease under my fingernails, and what inspired me to get one for almost every car I've owned.· 5 replies
Rest in peace Mr Haynes.
