Hi everyone, I'm from China and I have a Soueast Lioncel (a rebadged facelift Lancer CK2A). It has a SOHC 4G18 engine with 100hp.
I've been looking into the idea of swapping a 4G92 Mivec engine into my car. Unlike Honda B series or the famed 4G63T, there's not a lot of info on the internet about the 4G9 mivec engines. I think south east asia is pretty much the only place where people still mess with this engine, and this is about the only active forum to ask...
In Guangzhou there are shops importing crate engine/half cuts from Japan and I see them selling the 4G92 Mivec (with complete harness, transmission, ECU) they call it the 'MR' which i am assuming is cut from a Lancer MR CK4A. But I am not sure if they are the RS version or not.
From what I gathered, the normal blacktop 4G92 have 175 ps and the RS has 185 ps (not sure what model is the RS from). Also I read in a post here that the RS model engine has different valve springs and cam timing. So if the cylinder head has different design, is there a way to tell by stamping on the cylinder head?
here are pictures they have posted for sale... more or less the same, I can't really tell the exact model. appreciate any insight into this..
