Hi guys!

Greeting from Cebu City, Philippines =)

I've always wanted an 8G Galant and was hoping to gather some background information here before purchasing one.

8G Galants are a little bit plentiful here but some friends say that I should stay away from the 8G and instead invest on a new one.

Anyway, for me why invest on a new one that I don't like the form wherein I can buy the one that I like (the 8G) and make it even stand out more among the crowd.

Hoping for a warm welcome here...admittedly, I only have a meager knowledge about cars especially Galants so I know that this site will help me a lot.

Thanks! peeps!

Yo! A fellow Pinoy weee! Hope you can help me with some silly questions =) Pssst...what's a so special about 8G Galants here with having JDM OGs?

All I can do now is gawk at the nice 8G being sold of by their owners...darn...

This one's a winner..and cheap too by my standards...can't believe people here will still haggle for it...

Welcome to TGC repapeep! I'm pretty new in here but I've been able to learn more about the 8G's since I bought one. I own the car for almost 2 mons. now and I'm lovin' it everyday. It sounds like you're on a hunt and I wish you the best searching for one. I haven't been back in PI since I got here 15 years ago so I have no clue on what the JDM'd out 8G looks like *ober der*... haha

GOOD LUCK!

^---- i like the exterior color on this one!

Cebu's weather is somewhat different from Manila. When they have a storm, we're only having cloudy weather.

Nice to see another Pinoy...I wonder though if there are also local Pinoy members here...I'm hoping so! :038:

Ois, another Pinoy weeee! yeah...the red/black color is really disappointing...I wish the owner painted it in a better color sigh...

pinoy724@
by any chance any other local Pinoys rgistered here?

Edit@
better to post it here.

It's been agging me for a long time that some 8Gs look sharper than others...why is that? Is it just an optical illusion or something? Some 8g's looks to have a sharper nose...while some seems to have a boxy nose...here's an example...

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a231/gian7675/galant2.jpg

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a231/gian7675/galantwhite.jpg

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a231/gian7675/0554880762.jpg

The white one looks to be more sleeker than the modded silver...why is that?...or is there just something wrong with my eye? =)

The Green galant seems to have a sharp Nose...

The 4th galant seems to have the sharpest...as is the headlights and the grill are at an angle having a sharp look...why is that?

CrabMan
12-02-2009, 12:07 PM
Welcome sir.
I'm also new here, still learning.

BTW, the white 8g looks more aggressive probably because of the camera angle.
(Sigurado ako magugustuhan mo yung 8g imbes na bumili ka ng bago, good luck!)

Welcome to TGC! Here you will learn tons of valuable information! For future referance, The "search" feature at the top of the site is very useful, many of your questions have already been asked and have tons of feedback! Once you get your 8g, and want to start modding it, check out the "How to/ tutorial/ 8g" section!, Lots of great information there as well!! Good luck with the buy, and glad to have you here on TGC!! :thumb:

wow. what is that? looks like you can have people holding in the back and riding on top of it.

LOL! That sir is the King of the Road here...the JEEPNEY :orangecool: It's basically one (if not) the main mode of transportation here in the Philippines. Depending on the lenght of the Jeepney, one can hold at the back 22 people (the longest I've seen). Cargo/baggage can be placed at the top :002: The one pictured didn't have a roof rack so I guess it's for passengers only.

REELAX@
Ois PInoy ulit wee!!! BANAWE...hehehe! Car Parts haven. From your experience, do they have rare parts there? Or just stock parts for the Galant 8G?

I wish i can have a Galant similar to your...the Silver in the 1st page is really screaming at me to buy it. I also wish I could lower mine to that low a heigh...you know the roads here..it'll be a nightmare with the bumper/side sirts and worse the bottom scratching the humps and the enever road.

pinoy724@
LOL! I'd still prefer a Galant hehe!

12-04-2009, 05:11 AM
haha. 9G was pulling your leg. he knows what a jeepney is, he's pinoy.

most of my rare parts came from Japan. the parts i picked up in banawe were my tail lights and my front grill (new parts)... i put them in my luggage and put my clothes in a balikbayan box for the flight back to the US!

actually next time i'm there i'm going to bring home a tricycle... i've never seen one over here!

9G@
You ha...throws strawberries from Farmville =) what kind of dress up kit did you also put on your ride?

The Galants here are pretty lame...almost every other one you see are stock stock stock.

I wish there's a Dress up kit that would suit PI orads for everyday use =)

If you can find a VR-4, I'd get one. If not that silver one will do.

I can't believe it's been a year and a half since I last posted here :shocked2:

Anyway, I still haven't bought a Galant, the good ones always slip away from me. Anyway eh I hope this year is going to be "the" year! I'm in the final stages of closing a deal on a Galant 8g and I hope it all goes well.

Just waiting for the "ok" from the seller and shake hands on it.

If the deal won't push through, I'll have to go my 2nd choice.

pinoy724@
Pssst bro...would you believe I accidentally found one after 1 1/2 years:thumb_rsvd: I hope the deal pushes through.

Idol thanks for the welcome! i really love your car bro waahhh! I wish I could make mine at least similar to yours.

Btw, is the process of changing an Automatic Transmission to a manual on an AWD 8G similar to yours?

Nyahahha! Yup he was here heheh! he actually had his show at the Hotel where I work. parking was a nightmare for those who had cars LOL!

joshua42007@
I'm ok naman. I'm finally going to have a Galant 8g of my own wohooo!!!

I'll be closing the deal this coming Saturday April 16.

btw, guys, do you know what's the small white sticker located on the right side of the rear bumper?

It was a joke, i just guessed. I recommend you very, very well thought of the transaction. Tochigi - 150km - Fukushima - nuclear power station. We have observed from space satellite in Fukushima. The level of radiation more in 7.000.000 times than the norm.

Anyway, thanks for the concer. We were able to evacuate her before things went hot there at Fukushima.

This car of mine will have a very exiting history :jestera:

I was drooling at this Local Galant VR-4 bro! And it's a steal at .5M...I would have grabbed it immediately...but theres one major prob...I doubt if I can ever save a .5M amount on one go.

This deal of mine is very cool and my wallet is smiling. I'll only make a dp this sat and He's technically mine na.

For the meantime, he'll be in his custody of course. But I'll have visiting rights :jestera:

I'll keep ya guys posted on Jericho's progress =)

Saw your ride sa Garage Page. Ganda ah! The 6g is also in my want list hehe! 6g and also 7g weehh!. Nice ride bro!

================================================== ================================================== ======

jacob0530@
wazzzup bro! :icon_cool: To tell ya the truth eh I'm not sure as to what the year model of Jericho is actually hehe! Didn't bother to ask my importer because he found him for me.

Anyway eh he has the actual Japanese registration papers on hand...pero I'll take a look at it next time para exciting :045:

Too bad he forgot to ask for the Japanese Plates.

Update:

Anyway, jericho is currently under conversion from RHD to LHD. I personally saw it and dang...they're really thorough. I saw the Dashboard...it's already LHD and you couldn't tell that it was originally RHD.

Unfortunately eh no pics to post. My Importer requested for no picture taking during the conversion process.

================================================== ================================================== ===============

oakrdrs187@
LOL Its ok about the dents. it can easily be repaired. Unfortunately though...his mechanics accidentally grazed the center Console RALLIART CF with a large gash...I went teary eyed and almost fainted upon seeing the damage.

I pointed this to my importer and he went berzerker mode. he promosed to fix it...but somehow I doubt hecan fix that...DARN!!!!! thatwas a very rare piece of expensive accessory =(

I'm so happy with my VR4 and my importer... but at the same time, I was also diasappointed with them.


- They damaged my CF Ralliart Console Panel

- Lost the OEM Factory Air Snorkel during conversion

- for some strange reason the front passenger side fog lamp is now blurry...I wonder how in the world they managed to do that...

- and now after a friend pointed out, they seem to have lost also the OEM CAPS for the side mirrors...I didn't even knew hat they were missing...I thought they just painted them black =(

Sigh...anyway we're still not together my 8g and I because some papers are still to be finished...the Plates on the 8g are photoshoped.

Major check-up on him when I'll finally get him home someday.

One day my 8g and I will be together...but when hat day comes...it'll be the Greatest Day Evah! :038:

Wow, nice to see it converted. I'm surprised they didn't swap the wiper arms as well.

But about the mirrors, it does look like they're painted black, or they may be replacements in LHD form. The positioning of them head on looks different from the silver mirrors.

Get the close up shots, because I think they're either sprayed a flat black, or unpainted.

Yo Bro You really think so that they sprayed the Caps black? I noticed that the side mirrors were were black when I visited my 8g but didn't notice if the Caps were still there...kind of cool...the black side mirrors...I'm just only worried that if the Caps are gone.

I'll probably be visiting my G this end of the month or next month.

IIRC, the OP said something about the needing to be LHD to be out on the road legally.

Bingo! Thanks Skyforger!

It's illegal bro here in the Philippines to drive an RHD car. It's a must to convert it to LHD.

I really wished to drive this home intact RHD and all...but if I got caught, high probability that the car will go to the impound lot :icon_sad:

It would have been cheaper too because I could have used the money for the conversion process for accessories and other stuff LOL! :laugh:

Yo!

I finally got my 8g last end of August wohoo!!!

It was fun and...and a little bit scary because it was acting up when we finally got him out of the monkey mechanic's shop. A quick fix (in a different shop) got it going again.


The night before the long drive...

Early the next morning the 300kms road trip from Davao City, Philippines (my 8g's home of 1 year 2 months) to Cagayan De Oro City, Philippines was fun especially with it's 6a13tt engine.

Finally it's now with me here in our compound where I stay and I can look at it and take care at it as how Galant's should be

It's having a small hiccup problem though...when I try to push the car above 120-130 the engine starts to hiccup and you'll loose speed.

Anyway...more adventures to come now that he's here with me :icon_razz:

Thanks for following!

Thanks bro! :orangesmilewinkgrin

And still doing some added work on him. Gonna need a donor Rack and Pinion. The left turning radius is very big grr...for a U-turn to the left, you have to have a 4 lane hi-way to make it in one go.

If you're on a 2 lane road, you'll have to turn and reverse at least 4-5 times grrr....

Hopefully I can find a local 8g for parts.

Galant VR-4 adventure still ongoing and I'm enjoying every minute of it :clay:
