The car has been sold! Thanks for all the interest!
I have decided to sell my 1991 Mitsubishi Galant VR4 number 1375/2000. I purchased it to use as a fun and fast daily driver but a recent job change has increased my commute significantly and the car was no longer a good fit for my needs.
I bought the car from its second owner and at the time of purchase the car was stock except for some shitty leaking eBay exhaust manifold.
I worked on the car for six months in my garage going over it and identifying any worn parts while also performing modifications to increase its reliability. I used it as a daily driver from January 1st 2010 to April 30th 2010 when I got the new job. I purchased the car with 89474 miles on it and it now has 91350. When I work on something I do it right. All bolts are torqued to spec per the FSM and I like blue Loctite on engines with the balance shafts removed.
The car has had the following maintenance and modifications performed (all parts are OEM and purchased from JNZ Tuning):
Engine:
Maintenance:
Timing belt (with new tensioner, tensioner pulley and idler pulley)
Alternator belt
Rear balance shaft removal
All new Mitsubishi gaskets used for front case, oil filter housing, crank seal, valve cover gasket an timing cover
Ported oil pressure relief valve
Oil filter stud lock-bolt added (prevents loosening)
All cooling hoses are new
New OEM thermostat
New water pump
New oil pan
New IAC and BISS o-ring
New knock sensor
Checked timing and confirmed it is at spec.
Head gasket retorqued (replaced by previous owner)
New O2 sensor
New knock sensor
New turbo oil return pipe with gasket and sealing washers
Performance upgrades:
FP Race Manifold
Evo 560 injectors
Evo MAS
Full Throttle AFPR
Supra TT fuel pump
Keydiver chip
Upgraded FMIC
Extreme Motorsports 3" downpipe (with nice non-collapsing flex section)
Dejon Tool 3" exhaust piping kit
Dynomax VT muffler (has valve so quiet when not on it)
Drivetrain:
ACT 2600 clutch with solid hub street organic disk
Fidanza flywheel
Braided SS clutch line
Fresh Redline fluid in transmission and rear differential
Suspension & Steering:
Evo MR Bilsteins all around with Evo strut hats
Stock Evo MR springs
New front control arms & bushings
New sway bar end link
New Sumitomo tires all around
New Porterfield R4S pads up front
AWS lines capped off at steering rack
Monitoring:
Prosport electric oil pressure gauge (sender connected to oil filter housing remotely using braided SS line)
Prosport boost gauge
Palm IIIc with Pocketlogger software (hardwired to car no weekly battery replacements)
Miscellaneous:
Momo steering wheel
GT500 hood vent to allow heat from FP race manifold to exit
Owner's manual with leather VR4 cover
Replica key fob
Exterior:
The exterior of the car has dents. There is a dent in the passenger-side quarter panel that I was quoted $100 from dent doctors to remove. The driver's side door has dents. Some lady made a left turn in front of me and I took off her bumper. My bumper cover took the brunt of it so I have a new one that has been painted.
Needs:
The downpipe has a leak at the flange where it meets the catback. It's a very slight leak but annoying.
The new oil pan I got didn't come with a gasket on the drain plug so it has a very slow drip. I was going to take care of it at the next oil change.
The oil return line has a very slow drip as well. I am using the OEM gasket and sealing washers but it still has the slight drip. I was going to take care of it at the next oil change.
Summary:
This car has been very well sorted out and any mechanical deficiencies corrected. I used this car to get to work every day and I would not hesitate to drive it across country. I feel the price I am asking for this car is extremely reasonable for someone looking for a reliable driver.
Price:
I am asking $3500 for the car the way it sits. For an extra $500 I will include the following parts:
JDM "Evo Zero" front bumper cover (has extra holes below opening) with mount and OEM JDM bumper brackets
JDM projector foglights w/ OEM caps
Greddy Profec B boost controller (the classic
1993 headlights
Evo 8 ECU
Evo 8 to Galant ECU harness
At this time I am not selling any parts separately in hopes that the person that buys the car will want it.
I also have all of the stock parts removed from the car with the exception of the exhaust and the MAS which I destroyed to make the patch harness for the EVO MAS. Stock fuel pump, stock fuel injectors, stock EPROM, stock FPR, stock suspension (struts are still assembled with springs and strut hat). All of these the purchaser can have if they want them.
Having sold performance cars in the past, I have no patience for joyriders. If you show up with cash then I'll let you take the car out.
Thanks for the interest!
