Post What You Did To Your Car or Bought Today!

[Fresh_617]

I say we start one of these threads, I find it sometimes pushes people to work on their cars and get on their A game. Simple just post what you did to your car today or bought, could be both if you want, and I guess if you want to post one pic go for it.

I'll Start

Not much but today i got 15 buck of gas and some black ice =)

[blue8g]

Nice thread. So today I ordered a magnaflow 7in round muffler that will get welded in the place of my resonator. In hopes of a nice deep tone.

Ive never seen them live, so its kind of exciting. Im hope they play some good hits, and popular songs becuase im not a fan of any of there latest albums.

[Exhaust power]

ha lifting up the rugs is always fun. Whats the next project?

blacking out all interior cloths . Im going to do the headliner and rear deck in a nice fabric dont know yet but i want a black one. 3g seats hopefully soon already have the steering wheel (un installed).I have courtesy lights waiting to go in some time; idk if i want to put a black light in them or a purple, like my bros e36. thats all for the interior and maybe black seat belts with a tan sleeve.

my current one look dirty so black would be preferred.

[mrg7243]

i went internet window shopping for the g. I found the rims i want (mainly the style) but Drag Dr-33 17x7.5 +42 mm offset. I couldnt find a similar rim made by a better brand, but from what i heard they are decent for the price.

[M-Rod]

Bought some "stuff" and started planning the next phase.

[Galantman03]

found out that 02 and 03 galants that have done the five speed swap, the g runs better, about 600 rpm higher at idle compare to 500 rpm, when you unplug and say screw you to the shift solenoids... also did the valve gasket and plug seals, and b took out the entire clutch system, and bench bled the slave and master, WHOA! shifts way better now....

[Corey2kG]

Bought vavle cover gaskets, spark plug cables, Spark plugs, tranny fluid, tranny pan gasket, oil pan gasket, pcv valve, ignition rotor, tranny filter I think thats it. N finished up my SRI.

I had to bleed my clutch and master a few times before I started liking the 5spd.

I found it to be easier to but a hose on the slave bleeder and just keep filling the reservoir. That gets the system bled pretty quickly.

[Corey2kG]

Nah my foot is still light lol only let her ROAR!!!!!!! a couple times lol.

yeah i didn't like it that much at first, then i got use to it lol, but i got a bug and just decided i had enough.... but i never did think about putting a house from the bleeder valve to the main reservoir lol

[jonry]

received my 3rd gen tails(:

[beam514]

I picked up a whole bunch of groceries in my G today.. :)
and about the bleeding, unless you have brand new EVERYTHING, you probably shouldn't re-route that hose to the reservoir if you're bleeding it for the first time. A lot of gunk is gonna come out of those lines.

[wright06jhs]

Today My battery took a huge shit on me, SO i replaced that and the positive terminal that broke. Also stopped and look at trading in in on an Eclipse...But really see no use. I wish I could get a Galant again, If I could find someone to trade I would.

[jermyjerm]

Damn beerad,I never considered tweeter covers like that,good idea.I just cut holes and mounted mine.Probably much better imaging with them aimed properly.Of course I hadn't discovered TGC then.

getting dark thing sucks I agree. If you need any help with something that's not turning out right, I can probably give ya a few tips.

[mko]

Well, I did some fixing around the car. The rear coolant line for the turbo was leaking, so got that fixed. Cleaned up the turbo a bit, new gaskets and shit.....Did my short route piping which makes my turbo spool up much faster...but Ill leave the rest for my build thread

I know how that is. You have to do some crazy magic moving the window every which way to get every bolt out of the regulator.

Once the window is out, you wonder how the hell you get it back in. back first... no thats that right. vertically front side first.. no thats not right. lol

[Galantman03]

really? you guys had to take out the window? to change the regulator? i didn't have to, i just wedged a piece of wood against the underside of the window and the bottom of the door to hold it up while i took the regulator out

[o1naturalhigh]

Well, my brembo's came in. Finally something that will look good behind the evo x wheels lol. I also picked up another 5spd transmission for my turbo build. I figured it would be easier to order another clutch and flywheel. Not a bad idea to keep an extra 5spd around anyway.

Wish I was a bit more knowledgeable with the turbo stuff. Unfortunately I'm not sure what some of the numbers mean other than what type of turbo it is and how its cooled lol.

Awd is going to be a huge process if you went that route.
