Mitsubishi Motor Corp has added a higher horsepower engine and stiffened up the suspension on its 1994 Galant GS automobile. Besides the basic 2.4 liter 4-cylinder engine, a 160-hp dual overhead cam version is now available. The 1994 Galant suspension system, which surpasses the standard MacPherson struts found on most cars, incorporates a 4-wheel multilink suspension system consisting of an upper A-arm and two lower transverse links connected by an upright link.

Technical Notes
With its current redesign of the Galant, Mitsubishi has placed the emphasis on durability, reliability and safety items. For those who want more git in their Galant, the GS offers a more powerful DOHC, higher compression, 160 hp variant of the base 2.4L 4-cyl., and a firmer suspension compliments of beefier stabilizer bars. Both engines have hydraulic lifters, roller rockers and dual balance shafts.
Besides being family cars, models in this segment are given the added requirement of being fun to drive. Mitsubishi has given the new Galant a more refined suspension system than the MacPherson struts usually found in this segment. The new design includes 4-wheel multi-link suspension. The front suspension consists of an upper A-arm, two lower transverse links and an upright link (knuckle), connecting the upper and lower control arms, to which the wheel hub is mounted. The shock and coil spring assembly is connected to the shock tower at the top and the lower lateral arm at the bottom.
The rear suspension attaches to a one-piece crossmember and consists of a lower arm, toe control arm, trailing arm which locates the lower arm, knuckle and upper arm. The shock and coil spring assembly arrangement is similar to the front except that it is connected to the knuckle at the bottom.
