    One guy in the Mitsubishiclub Norway did some research on an german forum. He believed this combination of interior and exterior looks where only sold in german and austria for a short period of time.

    Eit even has carbon look int the center console, and this is original too. Not glued on.


    If feels nice to know that I have something special

    I'm not a big fan of the carbon look inside the cabin.

    But that gets the big thumbs from me, because it almost matches the pattern of the seats.

    You can also see the icons near the vent-controls which wouldn't be there if it was all stickers.

    Another update:
    Checked out how the new facelift grill fitted. Will look good, but i want to do something about the mitsubishi logo, cause i like the one on the pre-facelift grill better.







    Also changed for winter tires. The winter rims are the original 17" the car came with. Borbet rims made just for the galant sport. But the time has taken it's toll on them, so i gave them a quick shine with some fresh paint. Need more tlc later, since they have some bad bruses.









    Changed the bulbs in the fog light too. The front of the fog light was a sad sight to see, so i also gave them some fresh paint.





    The new streamer in back the rear window. It's the webadress for the norwegian mitsubishi club






    Then i fixed a worchbench and so on in the (small) garage. Just moved to this apartment, so there was nothing there before. Need some space to work with stuff, even though it is small. Can't get the whole car in when i am working on it :S

    Then out for a drive on a forest road, just for testing the winter tires and some pics. My first year using winter tyres wich are studless and bigger than 15". These ones are 205/50-17 Nokian Hakkapelita studless tires.

    That's some very early snow! (for us on the flat little piece of land called holland that is). About winter-tires: I drive with winter tires 225/45/17) (from around november upto feb/march), but never used or even actually seen tires (IRL) with studs on them!

    Love those pics in the snow! Do they use salt on the roads or do you just use winter tyres and get on with it?

    Salt on the main roads, but a lot of smaller roads (Wich there is ALOT of in Norway) is the snow just removed, leaving often a slippery ice/snow surface. But we are not allowed to use summer tires in the wintertime.

    You need to buy a Jap VR-4 or ST-R with 4wd
    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

    Yeah that would be nice, but the g8 vr-4 is almost impossible to get norwegian license plates on..... crazy system in Norway, almost not allowed to have a fun car here, and if you do it costs you the shirt, an arm, an leg and both kidneys.

    Evos are also hard to import and get road legal, if you get license plates on it is for motorhistoric causes....

    Probs comming some snacks to me soon thanks to a very friendly guy here. Thanks alot Ian!

    Been struggling with my left headlight. The mechanism for adjusting height seem to slip. So i was wondering on getting a used headlamp, or maybe go for the JDM one. What do you guys think?

    To illustrate what i am talking about:
