Everyones Galants look good! Truly makes me miss BabyG.

Here's my dailygrind. Just got her sitting pretty so I can atleast go to meets in a non-stock car.

Going to do a front lip, the OEM trunk lip, and a custom grille. Thinking of doing an Intake, header, exhaust but I dont want to ruin my beautiful 35mpg city gas mileage.

ok maybe i been gone to long but i coulda swore intake headers and exhuast run increased your mpg by allowing the car to breath in bettter and easing the pressure on engine through smoother exhale out the exhuast..........

Basically the more cold dense air the less fuel needed,

and reduced restrictions on exhuast means the engine can rotate wheels with less force dcreasing the need for more throttle press equalling less gas used

Got some new headlights in

In theory it makes sense but in reality the intake, header, exhaust would just push me to push the pedal down more so I can make some good vroom vroom noises which in turn will ruin my gas mileage.

Got them from a guy in Latvia from clubvr4.com, they're LED strips that act as DRLs.

Well they definately look fly...it's so crazy how an oem bumper from Japan can look so much like a bomex kit....compared to USDA bumpers which are so boring

I got it straight from auction in Japan, using an exporter, Pacific Coast JDM. He translates all the auction sheets, gives his opinion of the car, price, if I should bid on it or not, etc...as well, he handled all the paperwork and shipping on his end. Smooth and painless.

haha! I saw those stubby ones floating around advanced.

And I'm willing to bet even with that small filter, his MAF sees more air than most because of the 4.5" MAF adapter compared to the 3" that almost everybody else has.
