I agree and was wondering the same

[Jeffylou87]

Looks like a magnaflow or borla..

[RAZ_76]

Nice, simple and clean, the best way! Good job not ricing it out.

[racesnos]

looks damn good. where are you? what size amps are those JL's? clean install too! nice rims. nice paint. bright pics haha

[dknight3]

nice car man, i didnt think that strut bar fit on 4 cyl's. you learn something every day.

[mrjaydeeone]

looks good. nice start. where ya located at?

[Reelax]

nice car man, i didnt think that strut bar fit on 4 cyl's. you learn something every day.

the DC bar was made for the i4 (the part numbers for the i4 were produced but the v6 was always TBA)... the question was if it fit the V6 (which it does w/ spacer washers).

Thanks. It's a Magnaflow street muffler.

Thanks! I'm from Manitoba, Canada. The amps are 300/2 500/1.

[Galante]

Thanks guys for the positive feedbacks!

[komodo]

Manitoba Canada? Sweet! A third TGCanadian. Well, the second on TGC with a Galant atleast.

[ricky_db]

nice and welcome

[Galante]

Thanks. It's nice to be here and learn different mods for our G's!

[Serstylz2]

Very nice, I'm REALLY feeling the exhaust, love almost everything except one day you gotta take some time to clean up those rear rusted drums with some color matched paint. It takes away from the beauty of the rims. Overall it looks great!

Yeah right, every year I prep and painted my drums. Planning to do drum to disk brake conversion in the future.

[Serstylz2]

Oh did you paint them gold?? Since the pix are so bright I mistook it for rust. Looks good, wouldn't have went gold myself but that's better than rust any day

[Galante]

Yes I painted it gold. But now I'm planning to paint it Red or Blue. Which color would be best? ty

[komodo]

red

[Da_silvagride]

paint the drum black and front Red

[djflex167]

you started out nice man, great job! I'm wondering, what type of suspension do you currently have installed on your G?

[Serstylz2]

I think you should colormatch the drums and calipers w. the car color. The rear drum shouldn't be anything besides colormatched or black, and the front colormatched, black or red, that's what I would do if it were me

[Galante]

Hey guys, I just painted it red both drums and caliper before I read the threads. It looks better than gold anyways! I'll post some pics later.

My suspension is Tein S-Tech w/ stock shocks.

[Danger DANJ]

I actually like the gold on a silver or even a white Galant. Any other color Galant and I wouldn't like it. A bronze color would have been even better though. Everyone has red. My calipers are currently purple just to be different, but I've been thinking of changing them to black or blue.

[krispy03]

i think its funny, you got lazy and stopped editing out your plate.
looks great though, off to a good start, youll find alot of information on these forums if you search.

btw a smallville fan or superman fan?

[Galante]

Here's some pics after I painted it red.

nice car

[SkylineG1]

Looks good

[Galante]

Thanks guys, I recently changed my rotors because when I changed my brake pads 3months ago I did not change rotors that's why when I brake the steering wheel rattles. But now it's smooth as new. I bought the drilled rotors w/ pads from ebay.

Btw, do you know saboy2 from ebay? He was recently selling an EGR visor which I won but then somebody sent me a pm from an ebayer who have transaction with him but he did not receive the item even no reply from saboy2. So I put stop payment on my bank until the seller sends me a pic of the item with his ID and current date.

I never had any problems with my tires. It rides smooth and enough protection on the rims when I accidentally ran on a shallow path holes. Before, I really would like to get the 35 series but the tires seller told me to go with the 40's so the speedometer of the car will not change since it's the new rims/tires are the same height as the stock wheels.
