It's has been a long while since I posted The Galant is very close to finished and we're just sorting out some teething issues that all newly rebuilt cars get. A lot man hours put in, but all worth it in the end. I'll let pictures do the talking. http://i1250.photobucket.com/albums/hh532/HitchysGala...

Hi ShelbyGTO, Your GTO looks pretty clean, as you describe it may not be a 'show car' but at this event is mainly attended by cars that have been driven there under their own power, very few if any 'show cars' trailered in. Just about everything there is streetable/registered. As you described it's ...

Would be great if could make it ShelbyGTO,

Your GTO is awesome! Only seen it in photos would love to see in the flesh, that thing is real head turner and unique, If I was voting and from what I've seen this car could win best in show!!!

Cheers,

Andrew

Don't know if this helps, I'm currently doing brake upgrade on GD Galant Rally Car: Been using early scorpion Struts for a while now that have been converted to coilover (straight bolt up very simple). Currently with a bit of mucking around I am adapting, 4 pot Series 3 RX-7 4 pot calipers with Star...

Hi Cheater, If I could get 120kw atw that would be more than satisfactory, in fact that would be awesome!!!! That's double what I'm getting out of the current motor. what's your recipe for a 2.6 that will achieve these numbers. All going to plan I'm going to have the budget shortly to undertake this...

Hi Cheater / All Currently running 4g32, balanced and blueprinted to 1600cc. Twin 40mm DCOE, Ported head, o/s valves, Stage 5 Works replica cam, Tuned length 4 into 1 headers, but stock pistons. Comp ration only about 9.5:1. Its been a really reliable unit and has given me little to no trouble. As m...

Thanks for all the info Guys, Thinking that it might be just easier to build 4G54 2.6l and run the car under the Club Rally Car Rules which allows greater freedoms, stating engine must be from same manufacturer and have same number of pistons as original engine with from there basically anything goe...

Thanks for the info Simon, If 2.3l is the limit than that's still pretty good, currently car is fitted with 4g32 and which can be maxed out to about 1850cc, which is probably fine for the earlier and smaller GA -GB Galants, and LA/LB Lancers but with bigger body of GC-GD series probably not going to...

Hi, Doing my home work on a potential new engine for my GD Galant Rally Car. I am required by CAMS PRC (Production Rally Car) regs to run a engine variant fitted to my model at production. information I've found says the biggest engine fitted was the 4G52 Aston in the Japanese models. Therefore I mu...

Yep chopped the pressed ball joints and fitted bolt on Starion ones. The brake set up in the front end photo of the 4 wheel solid disc scorpion set-up I use for autocross, but I'm also working on a fully ventilated 4 wheel disc set up for Rallies that runs Starion rotors all round with Starion/Serie...

no worries, Bad-Sig, will publish meeting location about week out from event, will be same location that we've used in previous years. Hoping to get a few more sigma -galant forum members to attend, already got a number of Starions coming, which is great. Look forward to see your Sigma there. Cheers...

Struts are from a Scorpion, castor is achieved by adjusting rear rod end in or out, therefore changing angle wishbone, camber by adjusting front and rear in or out, do bulk of adjust at the wishbone, then fine tune via the strut tops. If you take a look at the photo above of the bare strut installed...

Always great to see more Classic Mitsubishi out in the forests, sometimes get sick of all the Datsun 1600's, Escorts etc. I would have to agree with you regarding similiar punishment between gravel & tarmac. My Galant has faired pretty good considering the 10 years of punishment I've given it. N...

Great build,

Looks awesome

That roll cage is basically exactly the same as what in my GD Galant Rally.

She'll almost be too good rally once you've finished.

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi Mick, I'm running Starion 14 x 6 Rims all round with either 185 road tyres or 175 rally tyres. The increased track front and rear of the scorpion 4 wheel disc set up and the increased offset of the starion wheels (+18 opposed to +24) has me right on the limit of tyre width. I've had to role the r...

Hi Mick, I haven't messed around alot with different setups, I did try Starion brakes all round rear ventilated discs and calipers bolted straight up to my set up, fronts too with a bit of mucking around got all to fit but lost about 4" of front track. So I got rid of all that. The 4 wheel disc...

Hi Mick, The diff is a hybrid, The outer 4'' of the axle tubes and axles are from a early model scorp (GE i think) so the rear discs would fit. The casting that the calipers bolts to has been rotated 180 degrees to a trailing caliper set up as the scorps have a leading caliper set up which fowls on ...

HI All, Its been a while since i've been on the forum, though it might be time to put up some pics of my 1976 GD Galant Rally car which has given me 10 years of service and is currently under going a well deserved rebuild.

Unfortunatey no youtube footage of it, have got a few short snippets from here and there at home. Whilst it's got some good gear underneath it would love to get my hands on a close ratio box, apparently rarer than the diff that's in it. Engine wise some hi comp pistons would be nice, but i'm not pre...
