There are a few on the J-spec site for sale

screw to galant! you want the legnum wagon!! sexiest wagon on the planet!!! im seriously considering getting one of these after my trip to nz eariler this year....

Haha I agree, was over in NZ late last year and they are definately hot :P

I'm interested in picking up a galant when theyre available for compliance soon.. the 97-99ish model ones...

Anyone know of any forums etc for these? Would like to read up on how they respond to mods and such

i have seen the "new" twin turbo galant your are talking about for sale in the melbourne trading post it was yellow and for sale around $25,000

i have never seen one in the flesh.

I owned one myself (brought it back as a personal import in 2000), and it was me who applied for them under SEVS. The ruling currently says 1998-on but that will be getting changed soon to include all year models from when they began in 1996.

I can put you in touch with a workshop who is currrently bringing in test cars, but it's still early days - you might be looking at Christmas before it hits the road.

If you need any more details, feel free to PM. I'm currently holding orders for three of them.

Pic of my old car attached - currently resides in Sydney.

we have galant and legnum both 99 models as test cars here now ..will be at least 4-5 months before compliance is available from me .it is taking 12 weeks from submission to approval atm + emission evidence = 4-6 weeks ..so end of year is more likely

I didn't think any engineers had evidence on these yet? These are a cool car, let us know when you've got it through.

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
