Nice pics of an awesome machine Rex. I'm lusting for your car, man.

[pinoyesv6]

so nice. so clean.

[seth98esT]

So thats the cool JDM RS with the big16g and yellowtop 510cc injectors stock? Love the new paint.

Only thing I see wrong is ... venting with the stock MAS! I know its a 2g mas, but still needs to be recirced! And the chrome trim around the tail lights needs to be black, would be even hotter.

[auto]

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmm that cooool

Stop posting beautiful pics of your GVR4 Rex.....I look at mine and its 18 year old original paint and I get sad. That Ralliart shift knob and Ralliart pedals are sweet. Can you get me the pedals by any chance?

[9G]

bery nice sir.

[DOHCstunr]

I have NEVER seen that front grill.

It looks amazing.

I love it.

[4-G-rim]

I have NEVER seen that front grill.

It looks amazing.

I love it.

Only came on the last year production of the E38 and E39 6g's which was 1993. Very sought after item amount the 6g Galant enthusiasts.

I have started a side business selling parts for 6g Galants for those restoring or needing parts mainly for the Galant VR4 guys. 1993 "clear" headlights, grille, and rear taillight assemblies are highly sought after exterior parts. (Which Rex has all those items on his Galant VR4) I found a 93 galant in a salvage yard near my parents house and took a bunch of parts for it. A guy from Maylasia wanted those items bad...and paid a very pretty penny for them. :cool:

[Blazepr24]

Wow really nice and clean too.... mad props!!:cool:

[Koncept]

That car is definitely a gem....

[4g63lover]

looks good pare.

Stock wheels dont do the rest of the car justice.

Love the Ralliart knob and pedals.

it was all silver before with dings.

i had it repainted two tone black and silver.
i had the engine rebuilt from the ground up using oversized pistons and bigger cylinder walls etc. its now a 2.2L 4G63T engine.
it has a td05 16g turbo from a limited edition subaru impreza sti 555, 3" exhaust plumbing, custom turbo pipings 510cc injectors, greddy bov.
it used to have the oe vr4 rims. i changed it to very light jdm black racing watanabe style mags.

alot of items went into the 6g that i posted in the first page.

like always, looking good Rex!

[galant350z]

nice, how come only one fog light??

[vr6]

like always, looking good Rex!

thanks brother :)

[vr6]

nice, how come only one fog light??

if you check out my sig, i have a fmic. i relocated the license plate for the fmic. best way i can think of relocating the plate without drilling new holes on my front bumper was to remove the left foglight, put some brackets and mount the license plate.


i plan to remove the right foglight too. i am going to install a big ass hose in there that will connect inside the engine bay for my air filter to suck in more cooler air. duct tape and some plastic ties should do the trick.

[EATsleepJDM]

snice!

this is the dyno run at only 7psi - 300+ wheel torque and 206ish wheel hp in 3rd gear at around 6000rpms. the driver in the car is my tuner.

the a-chu-chu-chu sound is my greddy bov. kinda sounds like compressor surge. hehe!
i love the sound.

[vr6]

i am getting bored..... i might increase boost to 18psi = maybe around 400+ ft.lb wheel torque and 290+ wheel hp..... lets see.

ill post a new dyno video and chart if ever.

[4g63lover]

you should try a custom foglight shroud bro. The funnel takes away from the beauty of the rest of the car.
