Hi Aaron, according to galantvr4.org. rear ball joints are the same as the front ( hope so, i ordered a full set to replace them) and the subframe bushes are available from as a kit for US$130, http://www.b2autodesigns.com/product_info.php?cPath=13_367_795&products_id=8218 hope that helps you...

Hi there everybody. Looking for info/ places to get stuff for my 1991 A spec vr4. suspension wise it doesn't appear to ever have had a bush replace in its 300,000km life ive been able to find and source nearly every bush that you can think of, but im struggling with the Front subframe -> body...

thanks for the heads up. I'll go the 3 piece to tie it all together, the bracing must be there for a reason from factory

hi guys, just wondering if there is anybody in AUS making similar cossmembers to the Bulfab ones http://bulfab.com/bf-3pc-crossmember.html just looking for extra clearance for turbo/ intercooler pipework around the alloy radiator and hopefully remove the factory bulky front roll stopper. any...

hey guys, things have progressed slowly but well, 4000 kms into the fresh motor and all is good with everything on the std ECU. i finally get around to putting the Vipec , vr4 Plug n play in. and its not exactly plug n play ( might be for a US or Aus spec), unless "play" means your outputs and...

hey Guys, finally had to pull the vr4 motor down, spat a balance shaft bearing ( not sure why or how) so ive got all the top end sorted, vr4 head recoed ready to go, 6 boost manifold to suit the gt30/40, adjust able cam gears and 272 Kelfords whats the hotness for Conrods and Forgies at the...

hey Gianni, i cant find the post with info you speak of. other than you haven't tested them to see what they are like. any update on that. or have i missed it?

inlet cam has run dry on the front "bearing" so all burred and stuffed, same with exhaust cam but #4 bearing. so as a minimum needs to be cleaned, welded and then line bored. IF you can get a shop that has that capability.

you talking a vr4 head? if so, then i'll take it.

ok Guys, the VR4 head that came with cam tunnel damage which according to my local machine shop is "too hard" to fix. so if this truely is the case ( i am getting another opinion) im up for ideas on where to look next. currently the car ( j spec) is operational with a non turbo head used to...

im happy to be "angry". will purchase direct from NZ. local shop quoted $980 for cams alone, yet had never heard of them and just looked on the PC for what they had. not exactly a confidence inspiring sales technique. Im still waiting on 1 price and brand from another business before final...

so no suggestions on suppliers? im thinking of Kelford 280/272 + springs and retainers for about $1400 delivered from Kiwi land. anybody out there used these?

thanks for the info guys, certainly going for at least 272's if not 280's. surprised at how conservative they are compared to stuff listed for the old astrons. just need info about where to source them from now.

late boost isnt a bad thing, hell of a lot less likely to get in trouble around town if being a fool. which is what i liked about the old setup. enough torque to still put around without being frustrated. If i don't lose much if anything of the current low down performance i'll be pretty happy.

hey guys, I've got myself pretty much sorted for Tunes and comfort in my vr4 now. so time to move to the go fasts :) from the old '74 galant 2.6 astron days. i had what was refereed to as a gt30/40 with .63 turbine housing. and i was really happy with its boost response and go fasts :)...

was private sale from a mate, certaintly wont be going down the refund path. had a really good talk with transport department bloke today. he wasnt to fussed about it all. said to drop it into the poilce yard and they will go over it. said that it is known for Mitsu's to have conflicting jan vs...

well not sure how to go about this now, 99.9999% sure its had the VIN and Chassis code cut and shut. Finding a Japenese recipet under the carpet and some coins will do that though. on the plus side. atleast its not 2 cars welded together

well, i didnt get to trasport department today to sort anything out. But i did get 90% of all my stereo gear. and on the hunt int he car for what stereo wire does what. i have found the memory wire for the climate control :) but ariel wise, it has both the rear guard mount ( small plug, need...

oh i will be, no question of that. will go talk to some people in high places tomorrow and see what i can work out from here

yeah. seems my investigating may have opened a can of worms.
