Re: Galant w/ Evo VIII MR drivetrain
I'm positive that the Van would still beat this car at the Cookout.  |

Re: Galant w/ Evo VIII MR drivetrain
Is it AWD? I could find anything on it; definetly a cool swap but if it's still FWD man would that thing be a handful to drive if the engine was even mildly modded. If it is AWD then its an ultra sick sleeper car.

Nope, its still FWD. He's currently working on another 8G Galant that will be AWD.

Re: Galant w/ Evo VIII MR drivetrain
It's still FWD? I vote ban Rose until he learns what a drivetrain is!! 
It is not nearly as cool if he didn't swapt the AWD system in it.

Thats why I asked; what a wheel hopping axle breaking mess that thing must be with even 300whp. |

Pretty sexy galant. Not a huge fan of them, but this one by far is the best one I have seen.

Re: Galant w/ Evo VIII MR drivetrain
Well a sad day for all Galant owners...
The guy who bought this car from the person who did all the mods wrecked it. He got into a "situation" with a Mustang.

If it were AWD, probably wouldn't have happened... Just saying...

No, if the situation hadn't involved a Mustang, it wouldn't have happened.

If the situation didn't involve a shitty driver it would not have happened.

Re: Galant w/ Evo VIII MR drivetrain
LOL @ all above true statements.
The seller knew that his car wasn't going to last long. When the guy who bought it handed over the check, he peeled out and almost hit a parked car. So he kinda knew it was coming. It just sucks that 5 years with the car and this is how it ended - by the crappy driving skills of a douchebag (Galant and Mustang owners included).
