no....... and no........

galant e is a pitiful underpowered thing..... find a fwd turbo talon eclipse laser and grab the drivetrain...... should be a bolt in...... ive seen it done wiring is a mess though.....

the 3000 gt vr4 had a twin turbo 3.0 v6 that would not work without a lot of effort........

They made them for driving schools, so one instructor could have 3 students at once and they could all take a turn without swapping seats......

j/k

It means that the rear wheels steer as well, usually point the opposite way to the front wheels at low speed for tighter turning circle and at higher speeds point the same way at smaller steering angles for "lane changing" that keeps the car more or less parallel while moving across. Not quite sure what they do if you throw on full lock at 100mph though....

Personally, I just think the engineers got together one day and said, "Lets add something else to add weight and go wrong"

Edit: Just thought, some models with 4 wheel steering had a parking mode where you could get all the wheels to point the same way with lots of lock so you could slide into parking spots easier.

So it really is like the monster trucks! I thought it was like steering asist where it will apply the brakes in the rear. That must feel funky.

When the Spirit R/T were on the market one of the major magazines did a comparision between the VR4 and our R/Ts. The R/T spanked it''s butt although if memory serves correctly the VR4 did better than other "performance" sedans against our R/Ts. The Taurus SHOs and Lumina z34s were not even in the same class accelleration wise.

That was stock to stock. It is easy to get 400WHP and it is no comparison then. AWD Rulz
