    2,5 V6 sport...

    you are right,
    in germany the galant vr4 is not avaible, so i did a bit tuning on my suspensions, brakes, engine and the weight of the car, i call him twist .
    my tires 235 40 zr 17" are controlled with koni shock absorbers and eibach springs. the brackes are from the VR4, the weight of the car is 1340 kg!
    the engine takes ram air, a modified air filter the head is modiefied, sport cams and biger tubes more fuel and a bigger exaust system with out catalysator.
    this brings around 200 ps at 6500u/min and 250nm torke at 4700 u/min
    all together brings a good performance of the car for the nurburgring nordschleife where i drive my laps every weekend
    the top speed is just 230km/h but the car run very well throu corners and has a goood accaleration ...
    on saturday the 24.05.03 i tock CHRIS GRIFFITHS a member of you club, for a fast lap with me in my twist, i think he had enjoied the short lap with me
    nice to be welcome on your webside

    see you pablo

    epic bump, I know we've talked about his car a few times and it was spotted in the Top Gear episode where JC took the diseasel to the ring, so I figured I'd bump it.
    If I'm replying to your thread and helping you out, it is because I like you and want to help out your VR-4 ownership. No other reason

    We were talking about this guy over Easter. He also took me round in Twist and to this day I don't think I've been round as quick. Was an awesome lap
