Hello, I have always owned mostly Nissans. I've had 2 Datsun 240z s30's, several 240sx and most recently a Rb25det powered Miata. A few months ago I sold my mutt of a Miata (Nissan,ford,Gm,Mazda Parts) and started searching for a car I have wanted since I've been 18 (26 now) a Galant vr4. I found a low mileage roller in Savannah GA so I loaded up the trailer and headed up I95. The car was great except for needing the an aftermarket sunroof removed and a non-sunroof roof panel installed, which I did immediately. Here are a few pictures of how the car has been coming along the past 3 months. My goal for the car is focused around a few things. 350awp on E85, Retain A/C, and most importantly keep things showroom clean and tasteful. This car is every bit of a restoration project as it is a performance build. Thanks to Ryan (strokin4dr) for selling me the car and helping with info along the way!

Yes, 60mm. Thank you. I wanted to keep it early 90's including the gauges but I found these for a decent price and rather have the accuracy of modern technology.

Very cool! Welcome! We have enough FL members to start a meet! 350 shouldn't be a problem with that turbo and E85. Is it easy to come by in Ocala? I can't find any down here within 60 miles. Decided not to go with the Cyclone?

That Miata looks fun. My dad has a stock 6 speed. He also has a 240z and a '68 1600 Fairlady so I'm kinda into Datsuns too. I've been bugging him to drop in a sr20det into the 1600.

Anyways, we should all meet up sometime. Probably in Orlando. We should be able to get about 7 or so. Do you ever go to Hardrock in Ocala? There is a Montero meet there in November I'm going to attend.

Hey, I would def. be interested in meeting other semi local gvr4 owners. E85 isn't too hard to find here (about 5 stations). All the Evo guys around here run it in their dailys. The miata was fun but headache after headache. I sold that to a guy in Orlando. He is going to ruin that car....as he was leaving he was talking about painting racing stripes on it and removing the old school HKS peak/hold gauges for autometer. *facepalm* I recently got a BRZ and am having fun with that while I build this galant.
