Hello Everyone,

Ive always had a interest in Galant's and love their mean looks. I currently drive a 1995 FTO Gpx (mivec) which has a few goodies.

Towards the end of the year I'd be looking to purchase a 8th gen VR-4 with that awesome 6a13 and AYC So at the moment im saving up for it and hopefully gonna keep my fto as well.

Edit: Here are some pics of my fto.

Currently has full exhuast done with high flo cat and 2.5" piping, UAS Induction kit, D4 Coilovers, 4 wheel disc brakes with the front ones slotted, sway bars, struts with a DIY air box coming soon. Body kit is a unique mix - veilside rear, creative spoiler, ducatro skirts and facelift bar, Interior is white leather with a isotta steering wheel and gear knob and dash is complemented with woodgrain templates. It did 112kw at the wheels when it was last dynoed and weights about 1210kg. It does the job , all i need now is a vr4..lol

What area are you from? I think I may have spotted you once before hehe..

The rear bar and spoiler look awesome, nice job on this car, not too over the top

 

[bradc]

Hang on, you retro fitted wood into the car?

Apart from that it is a very nice car!

haha, im loving the controversy surrounding my fto. Yes the white leather seats, steering wheel and gear stick are a little oer the top for most sports cars, as well as the template wood grain dash inserts but I think It makes it unique.

I was really into that luxurious look and feel on the inside while still maintaining the performance side of things. I guess it makes it one of a kind, well in Sydney anyway. The leather seats aren't really heavier than the stock ones so no real performance loss there. I probably wouldn't do the white leather when I get my galant vr4.

By the way, I actually live in Western Sydney (not far from parramatta). If any of you happen to see me around in this or live nearby, feel free to stop by and say hi.
