First time doing the engine swap, I never ever doing this nor has background on this kind of thing so I asked some mechanic to do it for me:

Prepared to be painted in Black since I got Hood from VR4 FL already

Finished Painted in Black but still need lot of work for interior

Interior still completely in mess

Not Finished Yet

Engine Bay

Very Dirty after several run on Highway

Video of it

It's not VR4 (if it's counted as VR4) that as great as other members have but I'm proud of it and still miss it even after I sold it

Wow, I like it...a lot. How much better does the 6g sound! New plan for mine now lol
What was required in regards to the engine mounts? custom mountings on the chassis?

Galant 6G ? I never try 6G especially 6G VR4 so I don't know how's it sound

Basically we need to change lot of engine mounting position since 6G72TT sit opposite ways round in VR4 EC5A engine bays. But the engine bays is big enough (very cramped though) so you don't need to push the firewall or move battery to trunk

thanks, it takes lot of time since I tried to keep it look as stock vr4 as possible but it was harder than I thought since mine was originally 2.5 V6 EA5A

i meant 6g72

 

[werrior]

i meant 6g72

Oh right, 6G72TT imo has louder and harder sound when rev at 6500 compare to my friend`s 6A13TT at same rpm. It rather similar to Evo's 4G63T engine.

Personally I prefer more silence engine sound like 6A13TT.

 

[M0R81U5]

Wow, I've wanted to see this conversion done.

Black on black on black too, I like it!

I see why you car is louder, picture 6 looks like just straight pipe, no muffler I could see.

Love your work, looks like an absolute beast! Nice seats too.

I dunno bout other VR4 owner but personally I really like black VR4 with black interior, was searching for COTY edition to complete it however VR4 doesn't have black leather powered seat so I find black leather powered seats from VRM

Yeah maybe I'll re-worked on my exhaust pipe again to reduce the noise but for now it's great the way he is

 

[Slinz]

Awesome!
I dig the sound of the 6G72 also... Looks like there's not much room to get anything else in the bay but I guess it's like that with the 6A13 anyway

Jon you should do it. Go on.

yeah it was very cramped, I never thought we can squeezed 6G72TT in my bay without pushing the firewall or moving the battery to trunk

yeah as Tom said, do it Jon if you have a chance

If you find an Aspire badge, I'll have your old Galant one!

good work on the conversion..

also just a suggestion, if you're going for the aspire trunk garnish.. add the tail lights too.. they have that slight difference.. as far as I know they're very rare like CIBIE headlights

Nah I just looking for ASPIRE badge to replace my GALANT badge, but as you stated, finding it will take times

If you find an Aspire badge, I'll have your old Galant one!

You lost your badge ? Untill then you need to wait till I got the badge

 

[Lasiorhinus]

No hurry. Ive got the badge there at the moment.

*update

MMCS is working but forgot to put the bootable CD-ROM :

Some people demand a picture of engine bay because previous picture is too small, so I took more picture of bit higher quality, Maybe in near future I gonna use smaller battery and re-placing the wiring again to save some space. I should had have it cleaned before taking pictures though
