Is this really all you'd need to do?! if so I think I could take this on with a couple of fellow gear heads.. what were specific parts you used? I really want to do this to my '99 GT-Z. And swap in a VR-4 engine/tranny/diff ;)
or at least what you've done here! What all you got in on your car? that was a sweet launch.

And how much did this all cost?

zseme39, the overseas 8G galant platform is quite different from ours, someone attempted the VR4 swap over here a while back and it was quite complex, you're better of doing what Stewi and Goosey did on their cars, and even then it's not a bolt in affair
