    Galant V6

    Hi I've just bought a Galant V6 sport, i know its not a VR4 - and never will be, but its still a great car and this looks like the best Galant website i've seen!!!

    my questions are;

    are any VR4 parts interchangable? i.e suspension, exhaust etc
    where can i go for
    ECU remap
    Suspension upgrade
    Exhaust upgrade

    any recommended Galant websites/ performance websites etc etc

    Thanks in advance

    There's a few V6 Sports floating about Glasgow, and they have the same body kit as the VR4, I was all excited when I seen them passing, lol.

    Ummmm, can't answer your questions though, I'm not long had the car, sorry.

    your looking at the only galant website in the UK, theres some in the US/Hong Kong INSERT INTO post VALUES ( I think) Both have some good info..

    - Exhaust, well you can do a search on the forums here, thers a couple posts about it.

    - ECU Remap, not sure of specific places, however it can be done. Mines getting done just now.

    - Suspension im still trying to figure out whats best. Then document it.
