[edit] hey guys...

hey... here's somthin' i want to share with you, here in Venezuela, (my country), just appear the mirage cyborg as Colt GTI, (4G93 DOHC N/A), and mitsu give for the most high grade executives from mitsubishi in Venezuela a lot of 90 that "drop" on each one. A good friend of mine told me that just in Europe, people call Colt to the Mirage Cyborg, (for people who don't know, It's a Mirage version that presented an HB 3doors body), and there's just 20 or less was to the public sale in 1992 to 1994. It came to compite in the market directly with the Toyota Starlet(EP82) or something, but this one showed up too basic, it was too basic. A single 1.3L carburated sohc, with no enough kw to compite with a Colt. The difference between Colt GTI (CA5A) and Mirage Cyborg (CA4A) was just a few things. The Colt came out with a funny a 1.8 DOHC 16 valves (4G93 DOHC) that fit well and hit 143hp @ 8300rpm stock. In the other way, the Cyborg made a run with a 1.6 DOHC 16 valves MIVEC,(4G92 MIVEC) that some people told me that hit 175hp @ 9600rpm stock, and use a stock Launch Control and short ratio gearbox and employ 1 way LSD stock, as i see... that's somethin' to be scare for any SI, SIR, GSR, or else... (hahaha). rigth now, i'm a 2nd owner of this such pretty car... and i am no complaint, just by the aftermarket and brand new or used parts for this car, I CAN'T FIND IT!!! IT DOESN'T EXIST!!! Here in Venezuela, too much CA5A are on junk yards, or crashed. In fact, more than 86 Colts was hitted and losted on accidents. I will apreccied if someone know any link to aftermarket parts.

Ahhh!! i almost forget, sorry about my translade, i learned by my self... jajaja, hasta luego y gracias...
