fuel Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 1991 Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 Evolution - often nicknamed 'evo 0'. Limited production run with all the good bits as the rally spec 'RS' such as bonnet vents and extra vents in bumper, larger turbo intercooler and injectors, stronger rear diff and axles etc. More or less factory original condition bar boost gauge and fire extinguisher.

fuel Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 240hp and 304Nm of torque - guess it would compete with other rally cars of the era - ST165 and ST185 Celica GT-4s, Lancia Delta Integrale Evolution etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatestben Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Mint bay. Wish there were more mistsi around looking like this, probably would still prefer a 7m in all honesty though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 That's tidy as, reminds me of how I saw an early (90s ) STI Impreza the other day, completely standard looking, almost liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Looks mint as! All the Vr4's I know of are rooted when brought. Has had or need a rebuild or well looked after? What turbs? I like these on Volk TE37, maybe in white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 well looked after and has had a recent engine rebuild along with a bunch of other new parts. previous owner had it for like 6 years, always garaged etc and if something needed attention he would attend to it right away no matter the expense. Have a stack of receipts for lots of genuine mitsi parts. for as long as I've known him he had vowed to never part with the car and I could fully understand why. only just recently had he decided to sell to upgrade to something newer and more practical as well as put aside money to go overseas, initially the price was quite high and as months went on he would drop his price by $1000 each time, until it got to a price that either I snatched it up or someone else would! I wasn't exactly out in the market to buy a VR-4 but I've always wanted one and it's been on my list of must have cars in my garage - at the end of the day I could save up money again anytime, I couldn't buy this VR-4 or any VR-4 like this ever again for that money. Has TD05H small 16G wheel, same as Evo1. Volk TE37s would definitely look hot on it, especially in gold or graphite I reckon. Not a big fan of white wheels on black cars.

Gaz Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Yeah I like the Vr4s and the evo3's. Good solid cars that can make hp easy as. Prob my pick of that era turbo 4... Also many others pic which is gay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unclejake Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 oh nah I fully had plans to sack it owt on chromiez cuz, and want to do a fully seek custom interior and fit on an evo5 kitkinda like this I would pay someone to stab you (jks)Seriously: Take a look at GT Falcons and how old the guys are who are paying $80-$300k for them. They are old (and I should know) but they lusted after A GT Falcon coupe when they were teenagers and when they were in their fifties spent $80k on a four door GT because they always wanted one. Those guys are not in the market much longer. Do the sums on the modern version of a GT Falcon and an original Mitsi Evo has to be in the mix somewhere. Certainly not at the top of the pile but the car has credentials and wonderful offspring. Seen an RX3 for under $2k lately? /I will STFU now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Didn't the previous owner go to great pains to originalise the hell out of this? I seem to recall hearing he had the exhaust brought in especially from Mitsi Japan etc etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
