x2, i like the color, but not sure how it would look with a silver car.

I like the color, really pops out at ya. Im tryna picture it in my head, it could work well but Im not sure. Have to see pix before I make a final judgement, LOL!

This is not a good idea. All USDM cars made in the last 20 years are made with the hub being the part of the wheel that carries the load. If you use spacers, the wheel studs will be handling the weight of the car. This causes extra strain on them, and they can potentially snap.

Anyhoo... I like the blue color. :)

Thanks bro.

I've had the bolt-on spacer for the 2G wheels so Im just using the same spacers.

Here is how she sits. Got rid of the P0505 IAC code and got her emissions tested yesterday and she passed with flying colors! Cleaned up the rear window of the stickers, though I kept a couple and just waiting on a new TGC sticker. I like it better stripped of most of the stickers. I dont know what I was thinking. Soo much cleaner looking this way. Also got my windshield banner made to rep the Sosick.

All I did was look up "2000 Galant header" On ebay. It's a Mega knock-off though there were only four of them when I was looking around.

This. lol Too broke to buy them since I'm saving up to get a ring.

Ah, gotcha

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-05...item255f3c6fdf

do you think this will work, cause all of the eclipse headers have a 3 bolt flange on it, the picture shows two on this one?

If thats the actual product you're going to need to get a custom downpipe section made.

hmm i figured so,
or is this the megan racing one that ivory_g was talking about?

Actually this will work, bcz all that third hole is for is to mount to a bracket that is attached to the engine block. But it should bolt up directly to downpipe with no problem. Other thing is that you'll need to do is extend the O2 sensor wire, if that is the actual product pictured. Bcz the O2 bung sits more to the middle on the OEM exhaust manifold.

^That is the exact one I have.

My girlfriend now Fiance is spoiling me by decking out the interior in the G. Last year a shift knob, this year a Momo Monte Carlo steering wheel and Momo hub.

Oh and congrats I bet she was ecstatic!

did you propose because she bought you that steering wheel? lol

Jigz...do I know this next mod? I better >_>

And congrats!

Wow that wheel looks great, it nice and simple. Do you have LEDs behind the cluster??

Thanks guys! Nah, the cluster is lit by regular hyper white 194's.

I know the next mod ^_^ hehe

Its either a swap or boost all it can be really

Not necessarily :p could be JDM conversion. Wheel setup. Paint.

Pretty much my partner in crime for this one. lol

Everyone will know when they find out.

That pic of your interior is sick! Steering wheel looks great. Your gauges are bright as hell.

Thanks dude. I think the camera makes them look like that. They dont seem that bright in person.

^haha looks almost fake lol.

I vote for evo 9 mivec engine swap... only because he always talks about it lol and it would be cool to see it done

I wonder what this secret is.

its would either be a crazy wheel set-up like Marc's, or turbo one of the two take your pick. Personally i think it is turbo, as a few pages back he said he is content with the wheel set-up he has.
