galants are 4 bolt hub. t/e/l is 5 bolt. you can switch out the hubs, which is a big job, and has been done on several vr4's already. or, you can probably upgrade to the vr4 front brakes, which uses the later 2 piston caliper. BUT, if you do that, now you must run at least the vr4 15" wheels.

www.galantvr4.org. use the search function. several vr4 owners have done this swap. also, check out the vr4 in puerto rico running 11.59 with stock motor, stock cams, AND stock wheels.

You wont be needing the hubs, u just need the calipers, caliper brackets and the rotors for the VR4. You might need to modify the brake dust shield tho.

Just another suggestion, look at nopi.com. They have an e-catalog with a lot of good stuff. I just bought Powerstop crossdrilled rotors from them for a little more than $83 a piece. I didn't look at calipers but, I am pretty sure they have something.

I'm sure the places that these guys have recommended are great. But just to get an idea of whats out there, just go to www.tirerack.com they have performance rotors, pads, and brake lines for all year galants. Definitely check that out.
