Legnum VR4 info?

[maverick_MCS]

I'm working on a data sheet for all Galant since 1977 for the swedish mitsubishi club (http://www.mitsuclubsweden.com/).
Thanks to your site, I've got all that i need for the Galant VR4.

However, I still haven't found so much about the Legnum VR4 1996-2003.
Could anyone here help me?

I need:
All perfomance data for both M/T and A/T.
Weight
Dimensions
Original rim size (4 or 5 lug?)

Please e-mail me anything you got.

A legnum is a galant, just the jdm version all be it with 260 bhp (From 96 to 98) instead of the facelifted 280bhp.

Or somfink like that.

Legnum is what the Japanese called the Galant Estate. Pretty much everything is the same as the saloon, except for a sensible amount of load space and better looks!

It does not refer to a specific engine or drive or wheel lug pattern. The VR4 is what gives that info. You can get a Legnum 1.8 GDI.

ok so I got the engine bit a little out but the jdm bit was correct. You could have at least quoted me as being almost right!!!

[Nick Mann]

Absolutely!!

[maverick_MCS]

I know what a Legnum is. But the Legnums dimensions aso can't be the same as the Galant, since the Estate is bigger, right?

And whats the original rim size for the VR4? Lug pattern?

[d3x]

a galant estate is the same size as a legnum. It's just a different name that's all..

16's I think was the original wheel size with five stud

[maverick_MCS]

Are you shure about that? The estate V6 is a bit larger then the saloon V6.

And how wide is the 16 inch rim? 6,5"?
So the lug pattern is the same as the GTO/3000GT then. 114,3x5.

[d3x]

ok then put it this way. I parked my LEGNUM next to a galant estate in a car park about a month ago. Apart from the obvious bits of body kit the size was identical..

[Pescha]

Ok the standard rims are 16x6's. maverick_MCS do you or have you ever owned a VR4 legnum/estate/galant station wagon? Now in New Zealand they are either called Legnum or Galants. Galants are New Zealand made, Legnums are Japan made. But they ARE the same dimensions!

Pescha!

Ok this is a galant saloon (like you own maverick_MCS)

Ok the standard rims are 16x6's. maverick_MCS do you or have you ever owned a VR4 legnum/estate/galant station wagon? Now in New Zealand they are either called Legnum or Galants. Galants are New Zealand made, Legnums are Japan made. But they ARE the same dimensions!

Pescha!

No, never owned one. I would know about the car then.

Ar you absolutely shure that they are the same dimesions? The V6 Estate is 50mm longer, and 80mm (with rails) higher then the V6 Saloon.

[Pescha]

Well if you have never owned a saloon, why does your car that you own say Car: Galant 2.4 1999? A Galant saloon is a car and a Galant estate is a station wagon!

[maverick_MCS]

Ok this is a galant saloon (like you own maverick_MCS)
