You may find that posting up whether it is a prefacelift or facelift version to be useful to your sale quest. And pics. I always like pics of facelift white Leggies!

you will have a PFL im sure,positive about it lol
what makes you say that? it could be an early facelift
It is a PFL as they didn't make manual facelifts until may 99
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
Will you guy stop bitching about whether its a PFL or FL, just put up some pics, so we can ogle, PLEASE
old age and treachery will outdo youth and skill anyday
gerryli, i have interest, tell more pls
Here are some pictures
Very nice example there.
Thanks.
Thought I would give a bit more details on history.
Car is regularly serviced (used to be by Mitsubishi in Auckland, now with Road Race & Rally in Panmure). Apart from the usual checks and oil/filters stuff, we replaced the following parts:
- Octobre 2007 (94052 kms): Replace rotors and brake pads; replace spark plugs (NGK platinum); replace water pump, cam belt and tensioner (all genuine new parts); replace P/S bearing in pulley; replace alternator belt; replace AC belt.
- March 2008 (96625 kms): replace clutch (incl PP, CP and brg) and machine flywheel; replace RF banana lower arm.
- July 2008: change battery
- December 2009 (105311 kms): replace tensioner pulley.
Tyres: Bridgestone Potenza - RE001 Adrenalin 205/55R16 91W - filled with Nitrogen mix. 2 tyres newish (december 2008) - 2 tyres might need replacing soon (can be arranged prior to sale if required).
Car is fitted with a Dynatron alarm (5 star) - really good stuff as people broke into the car 3 times and never got it to start - I have since had the car detagged and had no further intrusion (still got one tag; other one was broken by Mitsi when removed).
Agreed, good example except your engine oil cover is upside down
I wonder if my rear windscreen was replaced at some point as I don't have anywhere near the same level of tint as you do... unless you've had them tinted at some point?
I didn't, but it was maybe done by the first owner in Japan. The car was already like that when I picked it up.Originally Posted by Ryan
Rest my case lol????Originally Posted by Subaru ETA
That is an exceptionally clean and straight 100% stock manual VR-4 Well done! How many km's did it have when you bought it?
What he said! Why don't you sell the other car instead?Originally Posted by bradc
Brad, I bought it at 59,000kms.
Ryan, the other car is a 4 year old Mazda 6 MPS that costs a lot less than the Legnum to run. Don't get me wrong, it is going to be difficult to sell it. However, I am no petrolhead so the car goes to garage everytime something sounds wrong. The guys are very good but hours of labour are not cheap and they tend to accumulate for this type of car.
Like I said, I really want the car to be bought by somebody who cares and will not crash it on first weekend out.
They are a few scratches on bumper and right sides, but just superficial (undercoat is still on). That can be fixed if required.
what dollar value do you have in mind?
1991 E39A Galant VR-4 - the original VR-4
1980 A164A Eterna GSR Coupe - 3.0 V6 MIVEC TT!
LOL I thought I was the only one who got annoyed when the mechanic put the cap on upside down, must be a Ryan thing eh?Originally Posted by Ryan
