Re: LSD diff/ diff centre for ga galant

@JimmyG
Is that to suit an 8 bolt diff? Would it suit GC?
If no response from Lumley93 I would be very thankful to use that in my GC touring car.

Re: magna efi with a turbo

From what I have been told and understand, No (in a nut shell).
I looked at this option, however aftermarket computer is pretty much a must.

Re: LSD diff/ diff centre for ga galant

I know people who have used air lockers in rally cars and they work quite well. Car wasn't a Galant though and not sure of running gear.
I have a shortened Hilux LSD in my LC with 3.475:1 ratio, works a pearl, and exceptionally strong, only problem is a bit more heavy.

Re: wanted: picture of bottom side body

I just had a look under mine. I cannot see the two extra bolt holes you describe.
I have the rubber stopper just above the diff, but no other bolt holes. There is a single hole that goes through the floor, where the wiring for the fuel gauge go through but that is it.

Re: Lancer Celeste Steals Geneva Motorshow 2013

That will be a 1977 model, or the LB hatch that we got here.
Can tell by slightly different hatch (glass a bit smaller) and the bumpers.

Stick bumper on, enter can of expanding foam, fill ends, use knife to shape, cover in bog or fiberglass and paint

Re: Auto LC lancers....

One would assume it is probably the same gearbox from the Galant's if it is a factory Auto LC.
I have no proof of this but assuming it as they were both 4G32's.

Ill be at a rally with my beast on the 23rd, but will try and make it back for part of the cruise (maybe about lunch time) on the Sunday.
It will most likely not be in show and shine condition. But still hot to look at/listen.

Re: Evo vs VR-4 engines

Doesnt bother me with which way the intake/exhaust is.
Interested in them as a whole.
Might go VR-4 as they are cheaper, and if much of muchness I can just get it retuned if I feel the need for more power.

Sorry probably should have been a bit more clear, wasnt just refering to up to evo 3, but more like up to probably 6 (9 pushing my budget a bit for what I want).
