Wiras and older Sagas have 4G15. Not the T though. Where you gonna source that Colt halfcut anyway?
Also, if you can get a Brabus Forfour halfcut it has an even stronger 4G15T.

Are the engine mountings the same?

Doubt so. If it's similar then we should see 4G93 BLM's already. Just my 2 cents though.

wah interesting! Yeah, I wanna know if mounts are the same. I read somewhere the Mivec engine will fit since it's a reverse layout engine. But that's just me reading. I know nothing.

Dawn of a new age for engine swaps?

I rather just buy a turbo kit for the current engine.
Sure the transplant will give a bit more power maybe but the rarity of the engine make maintenance a pain in the backside

what i know is 4g15 for satria wira is an older version , this is 4g15 newer version which has gearbox terbalik that is similar with saga BLM , thats why people said it can fit saga blm plus it has the same mounting as mivec CK , bcoz mivec ck has gearbox terbalik , u can try search google 4g15 mivec turbo because it does exist in the model of mitsubishi colt Ralliart 2005 - 2008 , 2012 is the newer version . and i already ask someone that can provide me the halfcut and i can actually found them , but im a bit sceptical about the durability of the engine.. i still want to ask for someone who already did this..

the 4g13 4g15 and 4g15t found in the mits colt 2002-2006 and smart forfour does not have the same mounting as the lancer/mirage ck chassis
it has only 3 mounts. engine side, gearbox side and one rear mount which hooks up to the kframe. the same applies for the later 4a91 series engine. the engines were designed for cars without a centre crossmember within the engine bay.

I think I've seen before Saga BLM with 4G93T in this forum...

 

[moloderfd]

so bro , does it can really fit saga BLM and does the 4g15T maintenance are ok?

here's a fruit for thought,
the chinese have gone 1 step further and turboed the 4a91 found in series 2 colts. These engines have found their way into the soueast lioncel/V3 which pretty much is a lancer/mirage ck http://www.chinacarforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4473&page=6
this is the engine: http://club.autohome.com.cn/bbs/thread-c-2769-19503123-1.html
if you can get your hands on this puppy it might fit.


edit: yeah the 2nd website is chinese, i cant read jack but you should be able to navigate around the website. Otherwise if you check the china car forum link, the v5/v6 model has this engine as well. soueast builds cars for mitsu under license and are allowed to use their technology to build their own cars.
