Mitsubishi Legnum VR4 question

[szymonsta]

Wondering if anyone here has any experience with these cars? opinions?
i was considering one as a next car (maybe looking at getting something cheaper than my dc2R as buying a house and studying, maybe looking to try to free up some $)..

Don't know anything about them, but I saw a silver one on BBS LMs in Box Hill carpark last year and it looked hot. You would fit plenty of chicks in one too.

Sounds like an awesome plan...should we invest in one together?

Tom can drive with one on his left
You can take two in the back seat
I'll take the boot with as many chicks we can fit

[szymonsta]

lol.
ok back to the question..anyone know of any reliability issues eg with AYC or the 2.5 TT V6? is the AWD related to the evo's?
maybe some of the team misplaced peeps can help me out here? alternatively any good links?

Drove two (legnum and galant) and both have wheel bearings issue.. i guess it's to do with the age of the car and AWD ?

The feel, not as laggy as the EVO (7) i guess due to the TT but my butt says the EVO is quicker

Nice V6 note.. even better with a decent exhaust...

Plenty of parts are interchangeable between the VR4 and the EVOs

The amount of space in the Legnum is awesome, and they have compartment for amps and cables along the floor if you're into sound system to do a clean install

Overall i think it's a nice cruiser car with plenty of space and enough power to piss people off..

If you do get one, make sure there are no rust problems

very usefull info there thanks! how would one check for wheel bearing issues?
noises of some sort?
i have found part of a best motoring test between a legnum and legacy wagon but the tsukuba lap battle is missing..
anyone know their official acceleration times?

[milkman]

you will notice it, woopwoopwoop type of sound..

vr4.....how old is this car?
if its the car im thinking.....u may need to set some cash on the side for repairs...

my IX has done 140k....and its literally falling apart sounds that way anyway.........need to shop around for a 3rd set of suspension now .....
