Item: '91 VR4 Mitsubishi Galant Evo III 2.0L turbo

Location: Killara, Sydney

Item Condition: Good

Reason for Selling: I am a student and can't afford a turbo car anymore.

Price and Payment Conditions: Chasing $5500 ono, won't part it out.

Extra Info: Only 200, 000 on the clock with a new timing belt, which is nothing for a '91. Car has undergone a full Evo III turbo conversion including cyclone intake. Has a big td05 turbo, Evo III intake, larger intercooler, large radiator, full 3" inch exhaust from the turbo back, boost gauge, turbo timer, brand new timing belt, new heavy ralliart clutch (5000km ago from Meek), big aftermarket cams (i don't know what brand but they are big). Is sitting on Koni Yellows with King Springs -> It's not a serious combination but combined with the 50/50 awd handles quite well without breaking your spine over every pothole.

I have never owned a car as quick as this. Have a Dyno sheet from previous owner with 178kwatw which was done on a loose timing belt that has since been replaced with a strong and tight aftermarket one. Mechanic reckons she is pulling almost 200kwatw. I never go really hard in her but the few times i have she has ripped pretty much everything at the lights, eats stock STI's for breakfast. Definately the best car you can get performance-wise for the price imho.

Inside is really comfy. No rips in the dash (which seem to be in most vr4's) or the seats. I am 6'4" and i fit fine in both the back and the front

Outside there are a couple of scratches (it's a '91, what do you expect) but no rust that i can see anywhere on the car.

Has been serviced regularly and got the clutch replaced by the guys over at Meek Automotive. Got all receipts and whatever.

Why so cheap? Head gasket is gonna need replacing. Other than that the car is in tip top shape (as far as i am aware).

I wish i could keep her but i am poor (damn the student life).

Ahh the old Galant is up for sale again. This car does go quite well and actually handles good too. Once the head gasket issues are fixed it would be a pretty good buy.

unofrtunatly bruv vr4's go for peanuts now days.

Too true .......... they're almost 20 years old now which may have something to do with it I'd say .... but having owned two of them previously, if you can find a good one (which is hard) they are good.

I don't see an issue though. Engine is fine (except for head). No rust to speak of which you would think would be the biggest older car issue. She runs in the 5 seconds 0-100, what more could anyone want for a bargain price? :)

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.

      I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
