    You need to add Crashbars to the front and rear, Cat converter to the exhaust and a strength rated front windshield for it to pass.

    Is that all?


    Well thats not bad. You can get all of that from and 8g in a salvage yard.

    Except that the JDM 8g and the USDM 8g are completely different cars.

    So the crash bars and the windshield would not fit?

    I don't know that for a fact but you might want to find out for sure ahead of time instead of assuming that they will. Either way the USDM crashbar shouldn't be too hard to modify to fit on the JDM 8g since it works with the JDM bumpers once it's cut down. The windshield is a different story, it might be exactly the same and drop right in but I don't think anyone has ever tried it before.

    oh ok then if this is a good web site I might consider this. I want a right handed car so I know it is a rare car. I wont go down the street thinking there is another galant just like mine.....

    I think it would be cheaper to buy a G from EU (Not Norway, to expensive) then u can get it with Left Hand Drive ;) And its almost the same as a Japanese car

    Have you seen any VR-4's that were converted to left hand drive over in Europe?

    Thats the problem, only the VR-4 we dont have :( But if u use a wrecked Galant "Sport" interior like mine u can use that and convert the VR-4 to LHD ;) Its much work but well wort it :)

    Yes I see. I have always liked the European/Japanese interiors of the Galants...too bad they had to water it down in the US

    sounds interesting, so there is no VR-4 with left hand drive? because then a conversion would be ideal here!!

    Whats the story with dsandy? He is not answering my PMs or anything? If he really has a car coming from Japan, then why will he not help me out buy giving me some information?
