Your brother is wrong!
a) There's no new magna's being made
b) The "new" magna is the 380, which is a 3.8 SOHC
c) Magna's have never had a DOHC in them (except for custom 2nd gens)

don't the pajero's have a DOHc and the 3.8?? or was that just back in the day when they were 3L diesels

don't the pajero's have a DOHc and the 3.8?? or was that just back in the day when they were 3L diesels
Yeah, there's DOHC versions around. There's even a DOHC 3.5 with Mivec :badgrin:

Don't know about the 3.8, but the 3L definitetly is DOHC, not sure about the 3.5L.

Don't know about the 3.8, but the 3L definitetly is DOHC, not sure about the 3.5L.

There was DOHC and SOHC 3.5lt in the previous shape Pajero. 3.8 is SOHC.

im sure i seen a new pajero dribing around with 3.8 DOHC, but could be wrong

I wonder how hard it would be to convert to DOHC :think:.

Hmm uncles pajero is a 3.0 DOHC TT I think, but my GOD its slow :P

And yeah, not too many DOHC magnas getting around, KB did a DOHC conversion didn't he?

Yep...........probably the only DOHC 2nd Gen in Aus. At least i think so.

Nope Gotrice just did the conversion to his.

what about the DOHC top block for the 6G72 used in the eclipse or 3000GT i believe. also the diamante's have DOHC perhaps his bro ment one of these (hardly new though)

c) Magna's have never had a DOHC in them (except for custom 2nd gens)

didn't the jap spec 3rd gens come with the GDI engines which where a DOHC 2.5L V6?

Yeh jap spec had 2.5L DOHC v6 and 3.0L DOHC v6 (maybe even 3.5L in the last ones). But they're not "Magnas" ;).

orrrrr... thats stupid.. clearly are magna's

here's a slighltly off topic question, but are 3rd gen Diamante's still being made for JDM?

Yes I do believe that Diamantes are still being made in Japan, for their domestic market. I stumbled upon the Japanese Mitsubishi website earlier this year and the still had the Diamante on there. Can't read a word of Japanese, but the pictures were great. Basically their current Diamante range looks like :

The front looks like a TH with the chrome mesh grille
The rear looks like our KJ Verada, with the slim lights (no boot lights) and a huge chrome garnish around the number plate.

No doubt they have a mind-boggling array of engine choices, trim levels and factory options (eg. rear wiper!!) as well as lots of goodies for the interior that us in Australia would never even dream of having.

The factory alloys include those seen on the Aussie 2000-2002 Nimbus!

oh tell me what you think of this?? My brother has a 1996 ce lancer and it is a 1.5lt.. he has just got a new import on a DOHC 1.5lt, new clutch, cold air induction kit,fuel regilater and loads more!!

my girlfriends 2.4 mivec lancer is gunna eat that thing! it beats me, now that she's learned to drive....

The Pajero 3.0 was SOHC. The first Pajero 3.5 was DOHC 24V hi comp, needed 95 octane! The DOHC was introduced in 1996 as standard in the Exceed, the ones with the tri tone pain. Late 1996 it was optional in the GLS before being replaced late 1997 by the 3.5 SOHC 24V that was used until the 3.8 in the current model. The Ralliart Pajero Evolution had the 3.5 DOHC 24V MIVEC engine, I belive that current shape also used it as well. As an interesting aside, after the Pajero Evolution was released there was a rumour of the Evolution 2 being powered by a 4.5 DOHC 32V MIVEC V8 similar to the engine used in the Debonaire. Word had it a Evo 1 mule was lapping the test track as quick as a Lancer Evo 3.
As we all know the Pajero Evolution 2 never happened.

"When is a DOHC not a DOHC?"

6G72/74 is argueably (by the salesmen!) a "DOHC" as its got 2 heads with 1 cam each.
Thus its technically "double overhead cam" :badgrin:

A true DOHC V6 with twin cams per bank can then be called "Quad Cam".

Talking about Mitsu's... when did this 350Z look alike come on to the scene?

Your brother is wrong.

1) There's no new magna's.

2) The DOHC 24v 6G74 3.5l V6 is not new either. It's been around since 93/94 and was not used in any magna/diamante ever. It was used in the Pajero/Montero and the Debonair and Proudia (Both JDM cars)

Edit: It was the Proudia that had the 4.5l V8, not the Debonair. Just for interest's sake.

No that's wrong, technically it means Two cams per head. So the salesman deserves a smack in the face ;)

Why? It's correct. Even when compared to Killbilly's statement.

You could probably get a supra kit on that :D

I like the front of the eclipse, i reckon it look sweet!

According to this site, the 6G72/4 have forged steel conrods. :shock:
