So my dad bought this car from a guy up in the northeast. He had a big ported 16G installed because the 14B wasn't up to snuff and he had to drive it all the way home to the gulf coast. The car was decent but it would only run low 16's... Here's Why

Now the car runs MUTCH better! I'll let you guys know what it runs at the track. I think he's gonna run it with the exhaust/IC pipe we made.

P.S. It won't stay like this he has a FMIC kit with pipe coming sometime next week.

I got smoked by one of those vr4's when I had my altima. This was way back when I first got my car. The guy kept saying "vr4, vr4" before we raced but i didnt know what it meant and raced him anyways. Little did I know, I got totally smoked. Needless to say, the car wasn't near stock, but it was a learning experience anyhow

I think guy yelling vr4 at me would be kinda scary, unless I was all like "Ligenfelter, Ligenfelter!"

or "16psi 16psi!"

Yeah, Galants can be huge sleepers. 4 door AWD family sedans with turbo engines. gsxtasee has one that dynoed around 300 rwhp I think, but it needs some work now.

i there are so many cars like the VR4 galant i would love to have, but i know i would turn it into a project car and then i would have two project cars at the same time and less money than i have right now (and i dont have any so that would be bad) :P
