So, the basic question is on the topic. Which countries have selling/are selling vr-4 models? I know that the first vr-4 model has been sold in U.S and in some parts of asia, also in Australia. But where has been sold newer vr-4's? Only in japan. how easily can you make engine swap to 93-96 4x4 galant model which has the 6g73 engine? This engine has propably sold only in europe. Thank you for your answers.

It's down to importers, you can have one in any country if you desire, so on that basis they could be anywhere.

They officially sold 8G VR-4's from 1999 to 2003 here in the UK as far as I'm aware.
Earlier examples in the UK are all unofficial imports as far as I know.

They have been known to be sold in New Zealand, Australia, Trinidad, Hong Kong, Cyprus etc.

Engine swapping isn't my area, but if you can fit a Doge Viper engine into a Honda Integra and two engines in a SMART car, ANYTHING is possible!

the engine swap- is abi tricky as you hace the gearbox on the right and we have it on the left, you have to also remove the battery and mve it to the left, along with ecu gearbox ect

It has been said that the 2.5 V6 engine wouldn't pass USA's emissions regulations.

VR-4s were not sold in Australia. They didn't even sell the Galant. They did sell here in NZ for here in 2000.
