I had a Mitsubishi 2.6 l. 5 speed Man. That car was beast

Mad little cars... Great to see enthusiasts still keeping these gems alive

My first car was a new 1978 GE Sigma. Loved it. I remember having to tow my mates XD Falcon regularly with as it broke down so often. I've had 6 Sigmas over the years. Now in 2020 I'm hook on Mitsubishi cars. Currently I have 3 Lancers. 2014, 2015 and 2017 models.

I had a 1980 Chrysler Sigma SE automatic with the same sports steering wheel despite having the 2 Litre engine. It had awesome velour seats and a rear seat with a back that reclined. Had that baby for 8 years. It had the same awesome map light!!!

Bloody hell, she's in good nick. Well done for keeping the Siggy Turbo alive!

Ahhh Sigma, my first car, I had the round headlights but always liked the square ones better ❤ This one is simply beautiful, keep her going mate!

My first car - my first true love really - was an '80 GH Scorpion with the 2.6 Astron II. I always wished they'd put a turbo on it from the factory.

Beautiful example of a factory turbo GH sigma, only 500 were ever built. My first car was a 2 litre GH Sigma, got a 2.6 litre 4G54 from "pinchapart" in Melbourne fully rebuilt with forged pistons, removed counter balance shafts, fitted high volume oil pump from a canter truck, bolted on all the factory Turbo gear to it except turbo itself which I upgraded to a water cooled Garret T3 with a 0.63 exhaust housing, changed the head to a larger valved pajero one, changed gearbox to a supra 5 speed all alloy, Ford 9 inch diff conversion, factory zenith carby was terrible always going out of tune due to change in climate from one day to the next, nothing a gas research straight gas system couldn't fix which also got around the EPA requirements, 23 PSI boost up from the factory 7 PSI, in the end pulled a 12.7 second quarter mile at Heathcote. Why a Sigma? because it was the largest 4 cylinder engined car available and in my case beat most 350 Chev powered Monaro's at the Dandenong drag meets.I remember seeing the sigma with the number plate you mentioned "cachme" in a magazine (fast fours and rotaries) which also featured my car "Hybrid" (a culmination of a variety of species) never raced cachme as im based in Melbourne but would have been an interesting race.

Owned one of these for 12 years,bought it from a guy who had lost his licence for 6 months then promptly lost mine for six as well!Awesome car!

Such a beautiful example! I remember cleaning one of these while working in my first job as a car detailer at a Mitsubishi dealership back in 1981/82

I love veiwing vintage cars.

Go the Sigma. They really are a good looking car. And I think as certain cars of this era get older, they tend to turn from ugly cars to quite good looking cars.

I do possess a 1994 Mitsubishi Sigma SOHC. Nothing broke, only changed common things, brakes, tires and such. It rusted soso last year under the chassis, because of the friction of small dirt during all those years the factory protection went away on a left and right straight lines. But during a 2 month of weak raining, I cleaned and dried it not properly and then i painted it with "antirust" paint, 7 days ago i found 2 small holes, i did opened the weak places too and fixed them all yesterday, I was able to put some real antirust from the upper side of the wielding (upper side of the holes weren't even rusted...). It's a car made to last, Japanese and Scandinavian people really know their stuffs back there. I do suggest everybody to try and drive one of those cars if the occasion present itself.

Gorgeous. I’d love one of these. Always loved the early Mitsubishi’s.

You never see these things anymore. The scorpions were good too.

What a beautiful survivor.

My dad had the 1600, but here in South Africa they were known as the Mitsubishi Colt Galant. Remarkable cars.

Loved the GH, absolute gem.

Wow a unicorn! Grew up seeing sigmas everywhere... The first time i saw one of these was on the legendary Aussie mini series ''blue murder'' (1995) The drug dealer Allan Williams (Marcus Graham) is being chased( he gets away too :) by XD falcons in a Sigma Turbo! The footage was sped up, but the sound of an ''Astron'' engine sort of sounded right and it looked tough as hell! beautiful car! Keep up the good work lads!

My pop had a Sigma when I was a kid, and it used to make me sick to look at, now they look insane, they've aged well

Beautiful car. My first car was exactly the same colour and all but mine was a peter wherritt special. I know you said it never happened but mine had a proper badge on the glovebox. I traded it for 600 at a caryard back in 1998. Wish I had of kept it now.

I owned one of these. Red one purchased in country nsw. Loved it!

Just wonderful.......a rarity to see now days 👍

Gorgeous car a friend of mine had one of these even the same color. His wife mainly drove it .They bought it new . Sadly she passed away last year. Brings back great memories. Love your channel mate .

G'day guys. Sweet looking Mitsubishi Sigma. Here in the USA, it was sold for a way too short time as the Dodge Colt wagon.

Shame they made only 500 of these. What a beautiful example this one is. 👍

Had it over the others for interior. Lovely and plush. Drone well.

I had a few sigmas back in the day. A GJ GSR I bought for a few hundred. Light blue with dark blue interior. I loved that thing and it flew. A couple of GKs , had I 2 litre one that did killer stand stills till the diff gave out.

My very first car was a 1989 Sigma. I bought it in 1998. The air suspension went out after 2 months. It didn't stop me from driving it tho ! It was a damn rough ride after that. I live in the US btw. I think I only ever saw the 1 other Sigma that had my body style. They only made the model I had for 2 years, 1989 and 1990.

G'day boys I used to have a Sigma Turbo in silver, bought it in '91 sold it in 2001, sadly. I noticed that the turbo light on the dash isn't working as it did from the factory - it is the pressure switch on the back of the inlet manifold, originally barrel shaped and variable, so when positive pressure first started the light would glow dimly (you couldn't really see it in the daytime), and as you squeezed the accelerator, the light progressively glowed brighter. Look into a variable pressure switch because it was one of the best parts of the car - you could feel the boost in your seat as the light brightened!

Love it. Even the base Sigma are awesome. The Turbo is even better :)

wow never seen a sigma like this ...great vid and car rest guys

intercooler tech was low back then i remember the turbo gettin that hot you could see the oil flowing thru it

Bring back fender mounted turn signal indicators. With every man and his dog having a dash cam these days, it would certainly help with insurance claims if you can prove that you had your indicator on, and a dash cam would capture that.

Love my mitsi. Owned a sigma turbo 1983 model in nzl an own a vr4 galant 1989 model. Awesome channel

my dad had the standard 2.6l. Said it was 9k new in 81 and the scoprion was 11k. I remember as a kid the vinyl seats were damn hot after school. Petrol lid was able to be opened with a spam ham key ....

I love this car, kudo's to its owner, great video. I grew up in the Netherlands, and loved this car (Galant in Europe), my dad actually bought the 2.3 Turbo Diesel in soft green metallic paint in 1984, I even remember the rego plate LOL. It was a very progressive vehicle at the time.

And how good does it look even today They are fantastic 😍😍👍👍

These cars were very common in the day but you rarely saw the Turbo and Super Saloon limited edition models.

First car my family owned from new

My favourite is the 1977 colt sigma with round lights but yeah great video and beautiful car

I had a GK GSR 84 model with power everything non turbo auto it was my frist car wish i still had it

Absolutely love this, i had a sigma for my first car and would love to one day own another. Obviously a turbo though

Not many people know who peter wherett is but that sigma is in good condition pefect resto base not much work needed but she is nice as she is I had a similar sigma with rust but went hard and was reliable sold it to a mate who put the time into it and fixed it up but was poo brown lol not many people appreciate a good car and sigma turbos were ahead of their time wish i could have the privilege to drive one

I had a few GH Sigmas in my time.I had one far rarer than this. I bought a GH Sigma Turbo 2.6 one of only 12 made. Not the Peter Wherrett and not the two tone Factory Sigma Turbo for which they made 500. Our rare all red 2.6 was made in conjunction with Peter Brock. I took it to the Brock Shop in Brisbane back in the late 80's to give it a tickle.Did flat 15's with a slipping clutch, and air cond.

Awesome

Love it 😎👌

Great looking car, very special thing

I nearly bought one in Cairns back in the day. About '83. Nice car Except for the insane overheating every few kms. Let alone if you gave it stick. The salesman had to try to get me back to the dealership from that piece of crap three times.... I didn't buy it.... I adore Sigma's. This was the pick of the litter. I mean, early fucking turbo days. So cut em some slack. That advert on tv as a kid. This model smashing thru glass wall... I though it was the BEST looking car I'd ever seen. Those four headlights. Coolest thing on these is the twin tone and the fucken wheels....😍🥰

what a beauty!

I had a silver and black 2 liter sigma turbo which I bought in 1982 and kept for 25 years. In the end I sold it because the wastegate kept kept jamming open all the time and I got sick of pulling it apart all the time to free it up.

High quality car

Always wanted a GH....

I remember doing services on these from new working in a mitsi dealership

Get into it gh sigma had 3 awesome

Is that workshop "Monstabishi" still active???

the 80 model doesn't have the earth strap on bonnet

Beautiful car, especially considering these things rusted like mad.

Factory blue to match the colour of the exhaust smoke! 😂

Peter Anderson is doing a rebuild of a sigma. Not the turbo but looks to be the same colors. Check him out on KZfaq

I remember towie. Didn't it get pinched? Did you ever get it back

The engine is an astron engine 4G63 is a siruos engine and the early 4G63 was single over head cam 12 valve I have owned 2 Japanese sigmas which are called galants over there Engines are 4G63 single overhead cam 12 valves and gt4 turbo The oil cooler he showed you is the same one the cars I had used but they were mounted behind the lower valance In front of the radiator not like his one The Peter Werrit cars had red painted details on the wheels as well but pretty much exactly what he has there One very nice car

so many mitsubishi galant in Australia

Why Why does the bonnet have an earth strap???????????????????????

Oz muscle🇦🇺

I wanna put a supercharger off one of those mercedes 230s on my GJ wagon

Mate, come up to Brisbane and check out my Sigma collection. I've got a sigma turbo and enough parts to build another one. Plus a Peter Whereret special. And an SE, and a couple more....#493. 1982 MODEL.

I just wanna buy one to put the number plate LIGMA

Did you say you owned the ‘TOWIE’ sigma?

I used to think sigmas were ugly but now I think they look cool 🤷‍♂️

Astron power lol !!!!

Even the EX Lancer was a cool car to modify

My car mitsubishi sigma 1982

🥝✔️

redbook .price when new $9,999

Nowadays it,s modern equivalent Mitsubishi 2ltr NA ( non turbo ) would blow the doors off it!!

Did someone just dead-name Peter Wherrett - sorry, Pip Wilson...?

Due to inflation etc if this car was $14,000 in 1981 it would equel about $39,616 in today's world 2019
