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.

    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch 
    • re the security system, my Fuga/Q70 has the factory option where the puddle lights in the mirrors turn on when the prox key is detected, it was clearly dealer fitted and has a switch in the lower dash to disable it....it didn't have remote start but TBH I don't really miss that, I had it in the Stagea originally but never used it....we don't often have to warm the car up in the snow before we get in for Australia. And the Fuga also has the illuminated footwells, sounds like a useless feature but I actually quite like the indirect light within the car, it was a nice addition
    • Ok now I’m extremely jealous
