The owner of Sanling posted Japanese slogans.

The ninth generation Mitsubishi Golan is like a loser in our mind. Just looking at its appearance is too much for you, but do you know Goran's predecessor was very talented? Perhaps younger friends haven't seen the heroic image of Ge Lan (VR-4/VR-M), the eighth generation flat panel lamp. It was officially listed in China, but perhaps the price is not cheap and the quantity is very small. If I can still see it today, I think it is definitely worth collecting.

What I want to talk about today is the sixth generation Golan, which is similar to the eighth generation Golan, and the body size of the sixth generation is more compact. At the same time, this generation is also my favorite generation, because VR-4 is loaded with the well-known 4G63.

Goran is a transliteration of GALANT, but the Sixth Generation has not been listed in China, so I think it will be more rigorous to call it GALANT. The sixth generation GALANT was produced by 1987, but the platform of this car is also based on the fifth generation. In the first year of listing, it immediately won the annual award of Japanese cars.

Photo: This car is nearly 30 years old, but its color is still excellent. Some friends may know that this big lampshade is also made of glass when they see this headlight.

Figure: You have to understand that VR-4 is a performance version of GALANT, which was originally based on the sixth generation.

Photo: Although the style of S 1R rim at work is very Japanese, I think the tension style rim will be more suitable.

Photo: This humble and low-key sticker can already tell you that it is not simple.

Figure: There are two exhaust holes on the original engine compartment cover, which can quickly exhaust the heat wave in the engine compartment during driving.

Mitsubishi powder must know the weight of VR-4, this generation Galant? The VR-4 is equipped with a turbocharged 4G63 engine, with a maximum power of 24 1 horsepower and a maximum torque of 30.4 kg/m. It is equipped with a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual transmission, and the suspension form is a front McPherson rear double rocker arm structure. The reason why the Sixth Generation galante has VR-4 is to satisfy the WRC? Group? A group of 5,000 "production car regulations", although WRC's galante sedan was quickly replaced by Lan Se? Evolution replaced it, but his 4G63+4WD, which ruled WRC, was all inherited from galante.

However, the 4G63 in front of us is not as simple as the Force. The turbocharging system has upgraded the FP3052 turbine. By strengthening ECU and peripheral components, E85 fuel can generate 436 horsepower.

Figure: Why is the fuel pressure regulator missing? This regulator is AEROMOTIVE, and friends who play Mitsubishi should have inquired about this brand.

Figure: The intake manifold comes from magnus, and its cavity volume will be larger than that of the original factory.

Figure: This nameplate is very important. Depends on whether this car is worth the money.

Photo: Open the car door and see a very beautiful RECARO? SRD sports seat, in fact, even EVO, its seats are all made of RECARO, so this kind of seat has no sense of disobedience, and with Sabert's seat belt, its performance is fully demonstrated.

Photo: The center console is simple in design, but it feels like a science fiction film in the 1980s.

Figure: The steering wheel horn button has the words VR-4. I believe this steering wheel is not cheap. First of all, VR-4 is a rare commodity.

Photo: It seems that the most important thing for the owner is the water temperature. The thermometer is placed in such an obvious position, and it is placed upside down in front of the steering wheel, which has a sense of integrity and is worthy of praise.

Figure: limited? Edition means limited edition. This VR-4 is 2000 sets 1837, and it is still a left rudder, which is really hard to get.

The history of galante is not wonderful, and it seems to be far from Lancer, whose family is famous for its EVO. But after reading the history of galante carefully, you will find that this is also a great model. Most fans' feelings for Mitsubishi brand are rooted in its performance story, and the legendary story left by Mitsubishi in WRC in those years will never be forgotten. They all say it's Mitsubishi powder Say something. EVO, 4G63, VR-4, what else? GTO, FTO. These awesome "Mitsubishi words" are closely related to galante, and most of them were born in galante. When you know these facts, will you still look on coldly at the one that can't be sold in the southeast? You will find that galante is like an initiator. After repeatedly provoking the "performance" incident, he handed over the aftermath to other partners to inherit and carry forward, but he retired and started a family car.
