Battery placement, which makes for a different intake box setup mainly. Notice the lousy intake manifold too. When the 8G still had the stock intake:
Thats actually a really good idea, DOHC 4G63 motors are pretty rare maybe i could get the top section imported from japan to do that. And a DOHC conversion wouldn't require a certification over here :)
Out of curiosity what parts is really interesting? And what is different from galants over there? (as i have no idea what your guys engine bays are like)
I never realized world spec 8G's were such a combo of 7 and 8g:
7g *USA*
8g USA
That is quite weird as out battery are more protected tucked up next to the wheel well, quite far away from anything. Do you guys get limited airflow from the stock scoop?
Brake booster's on the wrong side of the bay lol! I wonder what a RHD car is like, it's probably as weird to me as a LHD would be to New Zealanders.
You airbox looks a lot like the Diamante's airbox:

Trust me, it is odd. lol
I've had the pleasure of doing a safety inspection on a 66 Mini Cooper Clubman, imported from Britian and RHD. The gearbox shifts like it does with LHD, but doing it from the other side throws you for a loop. The pedals are in the same position too, but it's a trip sitting in the "passenger" side with the steering wheel in front of you.
Ur G is very nice, and its the first time I c single fog lights
That 7g photo that was posted before looks exactly opposite, I was looking for image flipping!
Also with LHD to RHD, my mate i work with has a LHD drive Audi A3 1.9 TDI (we have a weird law if you owned a LHD in another contry more than 2 years it can be load legal here) and i have had the experience of driving it to work a few times, road positioning feels insane as your on the wrong side for the road, but in terms of driving i found little trouble adapting to the gear stick on the other side.
Its more scary being the passenger, as you feel like you should be driving.
Plus the awkward moments when you get pulled over driving it, and the cop goes to the wrong side...
Thanks, Samman. Also im amazed at the conversion you did to yours. Looks brilliant!
Hmmm welcome dude but let's get this right lol
I've been dealing in anything to do with 8G from per facelift to post as well and I think you'll notice that the double fogs are not a rarety like your saying they're plenty full . I can send you 4 sets right now to prove. Plus all the ones in my family's galants and legnums and the ones in the cars for sale..
The motor your talking bout in your car is readily available ex NZ yes NZ for round $450 as there's tons of them..
And then the tails as well plenty full
I don't mean to be harsh but I don't want you leading the Yankees astray on false knowledge..
The fogs are merly Nz new as well as your headlight being 2 piece and ur tails too,that's also for your motor..
When you talk of something nice and rare factory this is where it matters
Now these fogs are rare. Sorry if someone can post pic please iPad is restrictive.
