beautiful. my old friend crashed and flipped my galant :( so i browse around and look at galants for the nostalgia. man.. id give anything to have it back.
@@gutterrashautomotive3361 that’s cause we hardly have any jdm only cars here at all and the ones we do have are your basic Supra’s , rx7’s , integras, etc.
It's weird seeing the V6 crammed in there, I have a 2.4 GDI 4 cyl and I could practically climb into the engine bay with it 😂 plenty of room for repair
These also have multilink short-long-arm double wishbone suspension front and I think also rear. Very significant considering the platform and transverse V6! Not even FTO's have it which is a shame. Evos of course don't since they needed the longer stroke for off-road, and to save weight.
I'm not sure on the specifics but fully independent all round, though I think some cheap USDM specs may not. If you don't have 4WS like mine they still have passive 4WS with rear wheel toe changes under pressure to give agility
@@psions555 by 4WS do you mean AYC torque vectoring? 3000GT/GTO's are the only Mitsubishis I am aware of to have 4WS/RWS. Base model FWD Galants and Legnums of the same generation (7G) have the same front & rear suspension as theot respective VR4 models. I checked more closely after my original comment above and can confirm both front & rear are SLA double wishbone (and subsequently independent of course). Admittedly they aren't exactly optimal designs due to to the room constraints but still better than typical MacPherson Strut design on tarmac applications.
@@kekethetoad no I just worded poorly, I was referring to 4ws but as you say us Galant and Legnum owners don't get that but we do fortunately have this passive rear steer effect instead. I love this kind of setup, I think packaging constraints and crash safety is why double wishbone setups became hard to find. I enjoyed my Honda Civic for the same reason
Type V also means light weight version. Why want ayc? Its more raw without and you can powerslide/drift thru the corner. I went for Type V intentionally. And I've heard about people taking off their AYC to go without.
@@gutterrashautomotive3361 same I'm in Wellington 😂 my vr4 is pretty rough condition but in trying to restore. Currently just finishing manual conversion. Then need to get ayc serviced cause it only works every now and then 😑
Personally I'd rather forgo a sub & maybe lose a little weight elsewhere to have the AYC. Just seems like too much of a good addition to 8g Galant/Legnum, with their longer wheelbase and weight impeding turn-in. Are the bonnets aluminium?
Great car mate. I want an EC5A VR4 myself too. They just became legal for importing to United States. Seems like they are already sold out at the moment.
8gen: VR4 comes with the 6A13TT (206kw) instead of 4G93 (~100 kW), awd, and bodykit. It's got a few little extras like the hi-vis cluster, ayc, fender flares etc if Type-S. Almost a completely different car
Thanks man. I should've specified but here in Australia we use kW not hp. Based on a few tuning results from TME Motorsport a stock 6A13TT with factory tune running 7psi makes around 120-130 kW on their dyno. I'm being a little conservative when I say 150 but it's not far off I reckon (for now 😉)
@@gutterrashautomotive3361 my bad lol, yup 7psi, I'm currently run that stock 7psi until I get it tuned but gonna do a water meth kit for safty before I get it tuned to 14psi, alot of guys in my country also run a big single turbo [t3t4] 63 or 83 backend on custom intake manifolds making 400whp with just evo 550cc injectors and a arp head studs kit
@@vr4tt868 oh nice! What other supporting mods will you be doing for 14 psi? Ah yeah single turbo would be awesome, those manifolds don't look cheap though lol
@@gutterrashautomotive3361 those manis definitely aren't cheap lol. As for the 14psi, best mods if you dont already have them, fuel pump upgrade, we go for the aem intank 320, I've recently done fuel lines, 3/8 feed, 5/16 return, bigger intercooler, which you already have, water meth kit, aftermarket fuel pressure regulator, eboost controller and a tune. I believe that's basically it. Note: the water meth is not really for power but more for safety, we tune without it, then add a few degrees of timing with it because if it happens to malfunction, you dont grenade your engine, head studs might not be a bad idea as a safty, I've read some guys lifted heada running 14psi, but like I've said, I've just read that, never seen it happen
Actually i got a Nissan Primera p11 gt saloon white with mods, i want a Galant vr4 so bad!!!!!! next year i sell my car and try to find a Galant in Germany 10000/15000 euros, can't wait
I’ve always had a soft spot for the Galant VR4, it just looks so menacing. Black on black looks great.
That front bar really does it for me haha
And thanks! Wasn't a fan of the black on black at first but I think it's growing on me

Nice car bro. Ive always like the body style of these galant. But I’ve never seen a VR4 model here in US
Thanks man! There are very few around over there, however they're now eligible for import under the 25 year old rule I think
@@gutterrashautomotive3361 that’s cause we hardly have any jdm only cars here at all and the ones we do have are your basic Supra’s , rx7’s , integras, etc.
I had a 96' Auto with AYC. was fun watching the bars light up as you sent it round a corner.
Beautiful, brother! Congrats from Brazil.
I just bought a 2003 Mitsubishi Galant ES 4G64 with 184 225 miles, cold AC and still run strong for 500 bucks. I love this car.
Congratulations, Galants are great
@gutterrashautomotive3361 kindly mention the coilovers used in that galant...i didnt get it clearly from your words.
daaamn that's a gorgeous galant vr4!
Thank you!
Love it bro ❤️❤️ congrats!
Thanks man ♥♥
I love the galant VR-4s too a long time. perfect design. japanese build quality and ingenuity (and I´m from germany 😁)
I recognise this car! Fellow owner here in Victoria... with a colour-coded silver "Super" VR4 Legnum out-and-about,
Mint! I might see out and about sometime then
They are always telling me to dream big, but my biggest dream is to have and own one of those cars
Very attainable! These are cheap compared to other Japanese turbo cars.
Thank you!
earned yourself a subscriber mate! We would love some more vids it! Stay safe mate!
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed, will be posting plenty more on it soon :)
Wish to own one some day but I'm happy with my Eclipse GST for now 🙂
My teacher back in the school times had same model vr4 galant doing 1100hp+ on dyno
She looks WOW🫶
I’m a New Zealander and moved to Australia in 2019 the car seen here is nothing compared to back home in NZ
Woah it looks great. I think they are slept on but that's good, I might be able to afford one
Yeah definitely slept on, they'll never be held in league with the evo/skyline/supra/rx7 etc but that keeps the prices nice and low
It's weird seeing the V6 crammed in there, I have a 2.4 GDI 4 cyl and I could practically climb into the engine bay with it 😂 plenty of room for repair

Thank you! In the next video I'll be driving it so stay tuned :)

Highly recommend them
nice galant bro
Thanks man!
If i will choosing for lambo and this galant i would choose lambo and sell it and buy this type of car and modified it
Nice build! How much did it cost?
nice car
thank you :)
The Mitsubishi galant look so good I got hooked I purchased one but I want to change the engine do you have any advice on what I should get
If you can get a VR4 then definitely that. Otherwise the 6g72s are nice too
Are parts getting horribly rare now?
Great car mate. I want an EC5A VR4 myself too. They just became legal for importing to United States. Seems like they are already sold out at the moment.
Come to the caribbean their dirt cheap think I saw one for like $3k might need some work tho
Onde consigo um kit bi turbo coletores o meu é esse da foto do perfil
More video please
Nice vr4! Looks just like my old german galant 2.4 avance. Im also currently looking at a vr4 type-v from 2003
Thank you!
It was definitely the stunning looks that got me into these when I was younger
Good luck with your search hopefully you get it 👍
How much better is the VR4 compared to the other models, or whats the difference? I may buy a Galant as my first car.

Galant still a great first car though, especially if you can get a V6
@@gutterrashautomotive3361 thx for the Info man. Are all Galants AWD?
@@prodbyelxy no problem man. No, I think only the VR4s are as they stand for Viscous Realtime 4wd. Most galants are FWD
Awsome car my first vehicle was a galant black in colour. Good in performance
They're great cars hey
Love the galant I've got a 99 galant
is it fwd?
No it's AWD

It's a Type-V and without AYC.
What are these like for reliability?
Fairly reliable, but close to no OEM/After market support in Australia and very few reputable mechanics know them properly if anything goes wrong
