Wow so many OG's still here! Beam thanks for the offer but I am going to pass... I got a line on another Galant that almost had all the parts I am looking for. What part of Socal are you at?
Dave sup big dawg! I knew you would still be around... what's good?
I'm in the Pasadena area. Are you going to MOD this year? What is this other Galant you speak of? Parts car or that will be the new car?
Still got the Galant myself. Still have all the VRG parts not installed lol. I'm on a Reelax timeframe apparently...lolQuote:

haha yeah I remember drybear, though I think his activity was diminishing when I joined up. So I guess turbo is in the picture huh? And I have lived in socal my entire life!
Reelax pops up from time to time. Glad to see the OG reunion lol what's up Dave!

Turbo isn't in the picture... The wifey won't let me do any car audio in my SUV and it has been along time since I have been in a competition so that is where most of the money is going into. Last time I hit 143db in my old Galant and I want to hit at least 145db this time...
^^^ Guz4mn is in that area. Member with the Patriot Red GTZ and gold RPF1's

I bought another Galant. Still got the POS silver one that I posted in the OP but it either has a blown head gasket or something is wrong with the cooling system. When I purchased the car for only $500 I knew it had a overheating problem so no suprise there. Started to drain the coolant and it is brown as fuck. Oil is not mayo so still figuring it out.
While I was figuring things out another OG member that I still keep in touch with... in fact I was the best man at his wedding was Nick... also known around here as either 300dragonle or Messiah. He buys a new car and they where only going to offer him $580 as trade in value for his 2002 Galant ES with premium package. He didn't want to trade it in at that value with all the hard work he put into it and he knew I still have a passion for these cars so he made me a deal I couldn't refuse.
Here it is...

Here is what I know has been done that I can remember.
2002 ES
Window Tint 5% rear and 35% front
Injen CAI (black)
KYB AGX with Progress Springs
17" Tenzo-R Passion5
3rd Gen JDM Tails
Catz MSC fog lights
Catz 8000k Hi-Lo HID
AC Autotechnic S7 gauges
Front brake conversion to a dual piston from a V6 3G.
Converted rear from drums to disc from a 99 GST.
Alot more done to it besides that. He kept things pretty simple but used quality parts. Really took care of this car. When I get the chance I will post new pictures and have a complete list of all that has been done to it.
Looks really good sir, glad to see you posting again.
I have changed it up too... But that was almost 2 years for me
