Thanks for joining me on another auto experience, and one featuring my favorite car of all the time...the Mitsubishi Galant VR-4. This is one rare machine with a racing heritage and highly respected engine, but why hasn't this car been recognized as much as other 80s and 90s sports cars? Why hasn't its value taken off? Let's experience this amazing car and see what's going on here. #mitsubishigalant #galantvr4 #carreview

This car as been one of my favourites its one of the best sleepers from out of Japan this car deserve alot more ratings and recognition 👍👍

@autoobsessivegarage Жыл бұрын

In a world where homologation special cars are astronomically pricey, the GVR-4 remains affordable. I believe it to be an undiscovered gem that will someday get this recognition.

Maybe it doesn't deserve more recognition so punks dont know about them and buy them all up and wreck them

Great video! I have a fully built JDM GVR-4 and absolutely love it.

Thanks a ton! I’ve built a few GVR-4s in the past…what’s yours got done to it?

I own 1948/2000 and it's been going through a long restomod build. Kinda detuned it as my big power "racerboy" days are no longer desirable. I want it to be a fun turn key reliable but fun weekend car. Great video man!😎👏

Thanks a ton. Totally agree that fun weekend cars built to be all around performers are usually more enjoyable than big HP builds. Good luck with the build.

Im in the midst of buying a RHD VX-4. Love everything about the 87-92 Galant, I just hope the NA isn't terribly slow lol. Great review.

@autoobsessivegarage 2 жыл бұрын

I agree, the sixth Gen Galants look great still. The NA will be a bit slower, but still should be fun. Enjoy it.

This is a car I've always wanted to buy as a project car. I love under-appreciated cars. This is definitely one of them. Such a shame to see them deteriorate and get crushed.

I feel like it is my personal duty to restore under appreciated cars to keep them in the road.

I have a 1990 galant gsx with a vr4 swap because the gsx was na, but still awd and already had abs deleted from the factory lol. The gsx seems somewhat rare, I've yet to see another one in person.

@autoobsessivegarage 2 жыл бұрын

The GSX is very much a rare car, and is even more so now. I remember this swap being done quite a bit back in the day. I don't believe the GSX had the 4WS though. Which may or may not be a bad thing.

I got one of 315 ever Australian delivered vr4's about 6 months ago. It was in pretty rough shape when I got it but it only owes me about $4500 Aud I love it!

That is one rare machine at a great a price, congrats! Are the specs any different from the ones we received in the US?

@autoobsessivegarage 7 ай бұрын

You can certainly find them in that range, but they will usually require some pretty serious maintenance (timing belt, water pump, etc). They are not especially simple cars but there are plenty of resources out there for sure. Fantastic cars with a ton of potential.

Great find! The 16G feels so at home here and nets you a solid horsepower boost.

I have a car that is super similar to this, its a 91 Dodge Spirit ES. It basically looks like the R/T version, that uses the same 4g63, except mine has a 6g71 and is auto and not manual, and the spirit never came with AWD or 4ws. Having a 3.0 v6 in place of the 2.2 4 banger, makes the weight distribution so so so much worse. I swear the spirit has a 85-15 weight distribution, lol. It's like a Porsche, just going the wrong way.

I have a non-vr4 (eu) version. I have velours seats, and I think these are better than the leather ones. To be fair, I have only seen the 8th gen leather seats. Those automatic seat belts may only have been on the us versions. I don't know on which versions you could get the electronic suspension, with the control screen on top of the dash.

@autoobsessivegarage 5 ай бұрын

Sounds like a sweet Galant. I believe you can get the adjustable suspension on non-VR-4 models in the US. And yeah, we have those lovely auto seat belts.
