GSX_TC's Galant VR4 Build thread #550/2000 (Samara)

Start a build thread for it here on TGC? Lol I don't think they'd let me.

Sure they would. It's refreshing to see something else once in a while, especially something rare like an R32, and there's always something one can learn from other platforms.

I don't see the harm in it.

There should be exceptions made for gems like skylines, rx-7's and supra's.

Where would I do it on here?

Well the time for me getting my dream wheels (Work Meisters) on Samara is getting closer. Since the new wheels will be in the EVO X spec in order to later run EVO X brembos I'll need that size and offset. Only problem is that the car will need to be raised a bit and a little camber to fit the wider tires. So Mike and Tim from FIST Racing just installed the Coilovers that I had been sitting on for nearly 2 years Lol. Now I have go pick up the wheels this Sunday in Austin, then buy the tires and have them mounted. Then straight to get the Coilovers aligned and setup properly.

Here are some pics of the Coilovers installed. Besides the car needing an alignment the ride quality has improved a great deal now. It takes bumps a lot better now as well.

MAN, that underbody is clean! I wish I lived in Texas

**ShiZnitH** · 09-20-2015, 01:04 PM

Still no pictures with the wheels on

Well the day has finally come to where I obtain my dream wheels for this car! I love the fitment this is perfect!! I couldn't be happier with these.

I wanna give a BIG thank you to Mike Collins and Tim Oaster up at FIST racing for installing the Coilovers and always working on my cars, and to Charles Back for giving me a good deal on the BC racing Coilovers, and to my boy Alex Ruiz for hooking me up with the Bridgestone Potenza RE760's and to David and Minh from Garage Nowin for sourcing out these amazing wheels for me.

**oakrdrs187** · 09-21-2015, 05:06 PM

Excellent wheel choice!

**RedGalant2k1** · 09-21-2015, 05:07 PM

Love love love it!

**gtx** · 09-22-2015, 12:18 AM

That's what I call perfection!

**GSX_TC** · 09-22-2015, 01:25 AM

Thanks guys! The rear undertray is just a cover for the gas tank, and to keep air from going into the rear bumper. It's just a cosmetic under car part that there was a group buy on that I couldn't pass up.
