89 HG GSR 4G63T CONVERSION nearly finished

[monza]

hey im new member to the site and in the process of converting my 89 GSR and transplanting the 4g63t in, even though its FWD, :roll: one day will have original vr4.....

ive kept busy with the car and this what ive got and what i still need to buy (which im finding very hard cant find any parts i need around my area anyway).

1989 HG Galant GSR

-4G63T motor (blue injectors) TD05 turbo
-3 inch high flow mandrel bend matt black muffler from turbo back
-custom 3 inch throotle body
-matt black 3 inch intercooler piping + intercooler
-turbosmart boost controller
-walbro fuel pump
-new excedy heavy duty clutch
-2x new cv joints
-new gasket on exhuast manifold
-new thermo
-new boost actuator
-KYB shocks + pedders springs
-new DR!FT electronic boost & oil press gauge

It ran on the DYNO and got 150 kW @ 15 psi and 450 nm of torque

I STILL NEED TO FIND.....

-vr4 gearbox ( still running the gsr gearbox, cant shift quick and i have to nurse the gears it sucks big time!!)
-vr4 brakes twin pot (ive got the standard i think single pot they come, car does not wanna stop!!)
-coilover suspesion ( dont know wat to buy, car hanles like a boat at the momement)
-vr4 front bar ( gsr bar dosent fit cause of front mount)
-front grill
-set of wheels (vr4 or other) black maybe
-steering wheel

If i can find these parts my car will finally be finished

any help or comments would be great.....

ill have pics up in next couple of days

thanks .....

Looks very neat i like it! When you get new rims, id try get the widest tires you practically can under there for some traction if you wind the boost up later a few psi. I like the torque it made, is that corrected for the gear ratios? Looks like it was.

Sent you a message also.

thanks for the comments mate,

yeah im lookin for some rims thought id get some evo 3 rims or vr4 rims wat eva i find wat would u recommend?

for the gear ratios its just the gsr 2.0 n/a gear box but i could put the power down with a proper box...

The rims you have are the same as came with my vr4 when it was a virgin. So looks like the galant gsr and vr4 shares the rims. I have another set of rims that came wiht an aus spec that are differnt to what was on my j-spec though. So you do have one type of vr4 factory rim it seems. So you should easily fit the twin pots under those rims already.
