Item: '91 VR4 Mitsubishi Galant Evo III 2.0L turbo

Location: Killara, Sydney

Item Condition: Good

Reason for Selling: I am a student and can't afford a turbo car anymore.

Price and Payment Conditions: Chasing $5500 ono, won't part it out.

Extra Info: Only 200, 000 on the clock with a new timing belt, which is nothing for a '91. Car has undergone a full Evo III turbo conversion including cyclone intake. Has a big td05 turbo, Evo III intake, larger intercooler, large radiator, full 3" inch exhaust from the turbo back, boost gauge, turbo timer, brand new timing belt, new heavy ralliart clutch (5000km ago from Meek), big aftermarket cams (i don't know what brand but they are big). Is sitting on Koni Yellows with King Springs -> It's not a serious combination but combined with the 50/50 awd handles quite well without breaking your spine over every pothole.

I have never owned a car as quick as this. Have a Dyno sheet from previous owner with 178kwatw which was done on a loose timing belt that has since been replaced with a strong and tight aftermarket one. Mechanic reckons she is pulling almost 200kwatw. I never go really hard in her but the few times i have she has ripped pretty much everything at the lights, eats stock STI's for breakfast. Definately the best car you can get performance-wise for the price imho.

Inside is really comfy. No rips in the dash (which seem to be in most vr4's) or the seats. I am 6'4" and i fit fine in both the back and the front

Outside there are a couple of scratches (it's a '91, what do you expect) but no rust that i can see anywhere on the car.

Has been serviced regularly and got the clutch replaced by the guys over at Meek Automotive. Got all receipts and whatever.

Why so cheap? Head gasket is gonna need replacing. Other than that the car is in tip top shape (as far as i am aware).

I wish i could keep her but i am poor (damn the student life).

Ahh the old Galant is up for sale again. This car does go quite well and actually handles good too. Once the head gasket issues are fixed it would be a pretty good buy.

unofrtunatly bruv vr4's go for peanuts now days.

Too true .......... they're almost 20 years old now which may have something to do with it I'd say .... but having owned two of them previously, if you can find a good one (which is hard) they are good.

I don't see an issue though. Engine is fine (except for head). No rust to speak of which you would think would be the biggest older car issue. She runs in the 5 seconds 0-100, what more could anyone want for a bargain price? :)

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
