Just found a few vids on youtube of a car that was posted up on here a long time ago. CSM with a VR-4 front and 3000GT twin turbo motor.

I STILL don't like it, but with all the 4G63T CSM's out there now, it sure is unique.

Maybe if it wasn't jacked up like a 70's musclecar I'd like it.

Why are the rear wheels so much farther out then the from?? Seems like a lot of work and sort of silly but I guess if your going for unique they got it.

I think they used a full VR-4 rear setup (it's 4WD), which I guess is a bit wider than the factory CSM stuff

I still don't believe that the V6 motor could fit in this chassis. There simply isn't enough room. The 4G63 barely fits. I need some under-hood shots.

There were under hood shots the last time it was posted I think...
Remember it is Galant from the windscreen forward, so there's alot more room in the engine bay than there used to be.

It doesn't look wider in the front, and my wheels don't stick out like that. I'm pretty sure my rear suspension is the same as a Gvr-4.

I think they were just using spacers to be unique... or make the chassis more unstable.

I think it looks retarded. Cool concept, poor execution. Is that a Home Depot Household forced air return grill screwed to the hood? Thats just as bad as the v6 civic on here, Just plain dumb IMO. :-?
