hey everyone, from orlando florida here.

im new to the galant but im not new to mitsubishi or building really fun cars.

i have a built 94 mirage which i got bored with beacuse i wasnt planning on going the boost route so ive been doing crazy amount of research for what my next build DD would be.. at last i stumbled across here.

looking forward to my new project and ive already got a plan in mind thats a little.. maybe overly done/ to much work than its worth?
but youll just have to see i suppose. ill be over to hope onto making a build thread in a little while. ive only owned the car for a week and havent been able to get my hands out of it yet.

im just gonna post this here for you guys who also drool over stuff like this like i do.

nothing sexier than a clean af engine bay!

the royal blue paint looks really nice but what really needs to go under the hood is some color. whats another royal color?

Welcome to the site!

Welcome to TGC! Glad you held out for a clean galant to work with.

Welcome!

Welcome to TGC

Welcome, glad to see a Florida Galant

Thanks guys and deff worth the wait for a 96k miles previous owners were elderly and kept everything stock. I can tell it was maybe their grandson bend daughter who's done some repairs after having to twice l replace a few wire harnesses and the fact that my grille is held on by 2 screws in the headlight housing hahaha

Welcome to TGC! She's damn clean! What's been done to the Rage?

Eh nothing to crazy. It's obd1 so I had a lot of room to play with.
Weight reduced by 100+ pounds, intake, tb, injectors, cooling system. It really doesn't seem like much but on the 1.5 it took to each thing so well.

It was mostly getting everything to stage 0 I was doing but I feel like I've ran out of time with it and I needed something bigger.
The galant on the other hand I'm really going to dig into. There's only so much you can do with a 4g15 other than build it with 4g93 parts but the 4g64 has way way more potential.

I've got a 5 year plan.
Year 1. Stage 0, and some stage 1 type of mods including I,h,e and tb
Year 2. Body, cosmetics, sound
Year 3. Turbo turbo turbo!
Year 4. Gsx awd set up with evo 8 drive shaft and 5 speed tranny so I can run up the boost higher
Year 5. Enjoy then trade up

I know I'm going to get the whole why not 5 speed now. Well.. because I don't fully know how to drive one and nor does my wife and we share all 3 of our cars. Tranny cooler and darn good maintenance will hold me over with a mild mild boost of a medium size turbo.

Just took the picture and came out like that with no filters lol. Looking like team Edward.
Oh yea don't mind the hood lifts.. it was a "do you even jdm" joke I have between me and a few of my team nsr guys.. that I sorta fell in love with lol.

Welcome! Pretty clean G!!

Welcome. And another fla member. Sweet
