whats up everyone? i just wanted to get into some type of galant forum so i can learn more things about the slush-o-matic galant. i had like 10 different cars before this one and im going on 19 now, mostly all hondas. :roll: and i did the clear corner mod but the first light i did i scratched it all up, like the metal reflection material inside. But after that one the second one was easy. and i also changes the bulbs to hyper white and made my headlights the silverstars in hyperwhite also. another thing i tried was nightshade on the whole headlight, it looked sick but since my lights are kind of pitted it came out crappy so i just left the corners so it looks kind of like a 2 piece light. im satisfied with it, next will be using vinyl and making my eyelids. only mods so far is a intake, remote start,alarm,keyless entry.tinted windows,and a nice drop. sorry if i type like crap with grammer and stuff, bare with me. Only thing i really need help on is a tutorial on the 5 speed swap i know im going to get the search thing from all of you.. which ive done so many times now for like the past 2 months... i have a 2002, im pretty sure on the parts situation what i need i just thought that someone had pictures of there interior with the 5spd in there and stuff and i figured someone would have a tutorial by now. but any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.. proud to be a galant owner :wink:

yes, if you have the i4 the 3g eclipse GS/RS 5spd tranny will bolt right on. if you have the v6, then the 3g eclipse GT will bolt right on.

it'll cost you a lil over $1000 to do it yourself.

it is possible. 8ggalant has done it already and loves it

i'm going to do it when my auto tranny blows. or when i do an engine swap .

Peanotation has done the 5spd swap into his 7G. I believe it will be almost 100% the same.

RYANS99es 2.4 Please let me know what steps you would take to getting the engine or whatever you have to do. Did you go to Mitsubishi to do the engine swap or did you do it yourself? Do you have to buy a whole new engine?
