(SOLD)1992 Galant VR-4 #995/1000 Cape Cod $3,995
Up for Sale is my 1992 E39A Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 #995/1000
Long Story:
It is an option A71 model [1 of 88] meaning that it is 92' Belize Green, has a sunroof, and a factory cassette radio with EQ/input (which I still have). I belive all owners are known of, clean title from the original purchaser to me. The car was delivered from Japan to a Mitsubishi dealership in New Hampshire. It was owned by an older woman and stayed there for several years. Then around 99'(?) it was bought by somebody from Mansfield Mass. A few years later, his brother whom lived with him at the time bought it. He was a galantvr4.org board member back then in 04' when I bought it from him. The car was always garaged until I bought it. Which is partly why I have to get rid of it, this car deserves to have a garage. It has only been driven one year in the winter until now by me since I have owned it and also was taken off of the road for about a year (Mass insurance is expensive). The car was pretty much used by me and everybody above as a commuter car for college. It is now just driven on the weekend if that. All of the upgrade parts that I have purchased were brand new and most come with boxes. I also have the original 92' Galant VR-4 dealership brochure which is rare, look at the pictures below to see it.
The engine has been replaced by the previous owner with a JDM Cyclone 14b engine w/ about 60k now. Compression test was 150 across the board before I bought it. The car runs very well, idles perfectly @ 800RPMs and has only ever been down for half of a day when the clutch slave cylinder went out. Has 168k on the body now but I have started to drive it so the miles will go up. The suspension is stock GAB but it actually still rides impressively well. IMHO it is tastefully modded, it could easily be turned back into stock if wanted or go an entirely different direction w/ race mods. I really don't want to sell it but I need a newer vehicle. I have come to the realization that the only car that I am currently willing to replace it with is an Evo. Like one of my friends said; buying one of these cars is like finding an arrowhead in your back yard. I would prefer to sell it to somebody that has possibly owned one before.

Has a problem downshifting from 5th to 4th. It started after the shifter cable bracket bolts backed off. Might just need to be adjusted or could be synchro related
No A/C, JDM compressor fittings that were on the new engine for the A/C are different so the belt and bolts have disconnected.
E-Brake cable could probably use replacing

Rear Wheel Steering
These cars just like 3000GT VR-4's, some Z32 300ZX's, early Preludes and so on came with All Wheel Steering (also known as 4 wheel steering). So all the wheels move when steering. Just like AWD puts power to all the wheels
e39a Galant VR-4's active rear steering comes on at approximately 29MPH and is good for 1.5 degrees (locked) either way to help eliminate understeer. I actually like it, some people don't. The system makes for easy lane shifts and changes on the highway. But usually if you want to beef up the rear end and get a 4-bolt, you have to eliminate the 4WS
