Hi!

Been lurking around cvr4 for a while and now I´ve found you guys, actually didnt know that VR4´s where sold in Aussie. here´s some pics of my car:

Currently the cars in a shop to get a bit more power:

Td04´s
Haltech standalone ECU
Greddy profec spec II boostcontroller
OSGiken clutch
EVO 4-6 racing Aluminum Radiator + race fans
Custom hardpipes around engine
Custom 3" stainless exhaust
Bigger IC
Blitz dumpvaulve
Custom plenum
Oilcooler

...Thats the biggest part of the mods happening right now.

Welcome to the site.

what can i say but......


Awesome car, and i love that bonnet. Isnt it going to be hard to get those TD04's into the enginebay though?

also got any interior pics? looks like you got recaros too, very nice.

 

[Guest]

thanks! I think that bonnets called "monster style" they stopped making it a year or two ago from what I´ve heard. Got it the same time as I bought my CF trunk.

There´s not going to be a problem with the space for the TD04´s. The back manifold is turned up side down, so the turbo gets clear of everything. In the front we had to do a oilfilter relocation with some custom oilfittings to make it work, new downpipes, new radiator with the fans on the outside etc. The engine is now in the car, what remains is basically the pressurepipes and the big mapping.

Yepp, got recaro´s. Beacause it´s a "ralliart edition" it comes with darkgrey recaros, momo strearingwheel and black interior + some more small stuff. I havent got any really good pics of the interior(made a custom A-pillar gaugepod to):

Welcome Pierre, that's one hot Gallant you got there! What sort of hp/quarter mile times are you looking at with the proposed setup?

To answer your Q above, Galants/Legnums were never sold new in Australia, they have recently been granted "grey import" approval meaning for the first time about 18 months ago we could import them second hand from Japan.

 

[leebutts]

Welcome mate - awesome car - I think I've seen you on youtube drag racing?

 

[matchtheclown]

Welcome dude. Beautiful car.

Not to stereotype or anything but is sweden really like this?

Also don't google image search Swedish girls with safe search turned off at work.. :S.... Ok don't google girls at all. D:

 

[SiliconAngel]

Pierre that has got to be one of the hottest VR4's I've ever seen - what a fantastic factory spec! And that bonnet's gorgeous - is that the same style as yours, Brad??

Welcome to the site btw, I'm sure you'll be bombarded with questions over the coming weeks

PS that inverted exhaust manifold is a clever idea... How close will it get to the bonnet, though?

 

[Guest]

wow, thanks for all the answers and stuff.

I´m aiming at about 450hp, but I havent opened the engine yet, so pistons, rods and everything in there is factory. I guess that if I where to put the car on a dragstrip it would be spraying usefull engineparts under the car.

The clearance is quite big actually. The higest point on the engine right now is the custom plenum.

Welcome dude. Beautiful car.

oh, where so tired of them, sould I send some over? haha

Welcome mate - awesome car - I think I've seen you on youtube drag racing?

Yepp, that´s me. The car wasnt tuned yet on those vids though.

 

[bradc]

Trev - yes that is the same bonnet as me.

Now as for the car, you posted it up on Club VR-4 a while ago didn't you? Can't wait to see some dyno's with the TD04's

 

[SiliconAngel]

Shit Brad, I think I agree now, that is freaken hot! Why don't you get yours painted so it actually looks good too??

 

[Adrian]

Thats one mean looking galant!! cant wait to see what power that thing is making can you get some pics of the engine in the car??

btw welcome to the site

 

[montgomery]

Welcome!

Car looks really nice dude!

Good to see some more modded motors too!

enjoy your stay!

 

[bradc]

The curve on the bonnet really suits the front bumper on facelifts, evo style bonnets only work on prefacelifts!

 

[SiliconAngel]

Be interesting to see the finished product on mine. Not that I have a lot of choice - you can't get those bonnets here, and even if you could, my g/f wouldn't be impressed if I decided I wanted to upgrade before the new one's even finished!

that is why i'm gunning for that bumper I really wish someone here would make some.. *hint* *hint* to Freddy

Beautiful car man, some really nice mods too.

I will come to Sweden and take as many girls as I can if they really do look like that.

yes, posted it up a while ago on cvr4. I want to see the figures to on the rolling road. Just hoping that the rest of the engine, gearbox etc will hold up.

 

[SiliconAngel]

Pierre what are the cannards you've used on the corners of your front bumper?? They look fantastic!!

 

[Guest]

Uhm, their just some universal CF cornersplitters from a company called Realcar in Sweden. Dont know what brand or where they order those from. Their website seems to be down for maintanance right now. Thanks btw!

I havnt driven my car now in 8 months because of the tuningcompany. Their a teeny weeny bit SLOW!.....
