anything from the body should fit the USDM car with little to no modification at all.
hi to all!
i found on advert a british 8g for parting out. i called the guy and he told me that none of the spares, even the interior door handles (which i actually wanted to buy), fit the USDM 8G. is it so or the guy is wrong?thanks

everything apart from the
bonnet
doors
bootlid
bumpers front and rear
lights
grill
windows
will fit, not sure about wing mirrors, we have folding mirrors where as the usdm look mostly fixed
Interiors are completely different
Interior
I also believe that most of the suspension etc is different, as the only shared usdm engine iirc is the 4G64 2.4 V6?? Even then they are vastly different, as we have the GDI range, which means no performance modding, so the only engine/suspension component that could be shared would be from that model
however if it has the 2.5V6 24valve engine, I highly reccomend it, excellent engines and make a noise like a mini caged Ferrari, and for 170bhp they go like stink
what about such a small thing like interior door handles?
Engines are different too, weve got the 6g72 v6 3.0

When I feel like eating a banana, I like to go to the zoo, sucker punch a gorilla and try to run with a banana hanging out my bum. Then if I succeed, I enjoy my victory with said banana and a stroopwaffle.
We do share one engine, but they are different
Door handles probably wont fit, look at them in the picture and see how different they are to the USDM cars ;)
the fenders won't work unless you make new mounting holes, and get some sideskirts or something
how different are they?? i mean the only difference i really noticed was color. i have a hybrid set, in which i took the lock piece from a usdm galant and replace the one from the door handle from the UK since the black lock piece clashed with my interior. but yea, other than color i didn't see any difference.

yup. thats my interior . without the leather :(
show me closeup picture of usdm 8g handle
will do ASAP. but r u sure that in New Zealand u have the same modification of Galant as in UK?
i know that many people have done, it but i guess they have done it with handes and mirrors from JDM.i have no questions about JDM fitting USDM, my trouble is with British (which, in my opinion should be the same modification)
when it comes to the 8G they were made in 2 places, JAPAN and the US. north america got the ones form the factory at normal, illinois; everyone else got the ones made in japan. so your suspicions are correct: JDM and world spec are pretty much the SAME. the only really different 8G is the USDM variant.
yeah. Euro galants should be same as Japansese for the mostpart.

the handles are pretty much the same. just a color variance. the trim that goes around the handle however is different.
