don't know too much about the evo's but the galant vr-4 is a pretty bad ass ride as well. you just can't buy it here in the states. there's a guy doning the first evo viii head swap into a v6 galant as we speak though so that should be pretty cool.

i beleive it's a 3.0l based off of the 6g72 block same as the block in the galant, eclipse, sebring and stratus but with dohc.

*edit* i was wrong it is 2.0l

Evo V

Price: $--,---
Miles Per Gallon: --/-- mpg
Curb Weight: 2998 lbs
Layout: Front-Engine/AWD
Transmission: 5-Speed Manual
Engine
Type: Turbocharged Inline-4
Displacement: 1997 cc
Horsepower: 276 bhp @ 6500 rpm
Torque: 275 lb-ft @ 3000 rpm
Redline: ---- rpm
Performance
0-60 mph: 5.0 sec
0-100 mph: 12.9 sec
Quarter Mile: 13.1 sec @ 101 mph
Skidpad: .95g
Top Speed: 140 mph
Braking, 60-0 mph: 123 ft
Slalom Speed: 65.8 mph


Well, horsepower is better in the V, but the top speed is better in the Viii... It's a tight one btwn the torque... GSR(6M/T): Total only 3kg heavier with making details parts lighter
RS(5M/T): Even with ACD fitted, Front helical LSD (standard), the overall design is approx.19kg lighter than Evo 7 with manufacture option (ACD etc)





*edit* So no, I don't think the V is lighter than the VIII. Absolutely not. Why would they make a newer version heavier? It doesn't make sense.

Hard to believe I'm a girl eh?
