The "VR4" is the high performance version of the galant. This is as the "Evolution" is to the lancer. Even with recent models sporting V6 engines, there are still VR4 variants but unfortunately they aren't sold here.

The closest equivalent to the VR would be the old GTi. I'll list the top end of the normal line and the VR4 variant for the last 3 galant generations:


90s GTi - 4G63 i4 DOHC 145hp
90s VR4 - 4G63T i4 DOHC TURBO 240hp 4WD 4WS

95s VR - 6A12 v6 DOHC 165hp
95s VR4 - 6A12TT v6 DOHC TWIN TURBO 240hp 4WD

97s VR - 6A13 v6 SOHC 163hp
97s VR4 - 6A13TT v6 DOHC TWIN TURBO 280hp 4WD AYC
