    Greeting From Nairobi

    Hey guys, I've been here since last year and apologies I never posted on the newbie area. I currently own a really beat up galant vr4 which I am really trying to restore to it's glory. I have already engaged with some of you in sourcing some parts and you have been really helpful. Thanks. Drove it for a few weeks after buying it then hell broke lose. The wiring was all messed up (always shorting fuses here and there). Few wires burnt out due to poor bypasses, left me stranded a couple of times. So I'm currently trying clean everything up. My aim is to return the car to pretty much stock then see what can be done from there. Will keep you guys posted. Cheers.

    Hey guys thanks for the welcome. We've got a bunch of them here so far met like 3 people with VR4s. all stock nothing crazy. Weird thing is that it was highly recommended by police in the late 90s early 2000s. So most were from ex-government.
