Weld -16 AN fitting for coolant. Head, block and radiator.
installed Polk DXi6500 component speakers and matched it with Polk 4 Channel Amp PA660, i have not had any front sound since 2009.
Received these in the mail, going a different direction than HID or LED fogs. Old school ftw.

Bought four new tires and how does my car thank me
car-oh i see you have money to put into me, that's cool I'm going to blow my water pump gasket now
me- wtf -_-
so new water pump, timing belt, and components
Found out that I had 3 broken wires to my IAC which tripped the MAF code and was also why it wouldn't run without my foot on the gas. Fixed!

What do you guys think about this? If its bad anyway i can get a legit one?

It will prob be hard finding an oem one. Just gamble the 68 bucks on it. Not a big loss if you dont like it.Quote:

That is a super vr4 spoiler.
Next set of wipers I am getting are from PIAA. Just undecided about which design I want.
All I buy is Bosch Icons, they are dope wipers, along with the Rain-X windshield washer fluid my windows stay clean, streak free and the wipers never chatter or make any kind of noise.
Replaced a bad injector on our 03 F350 turbo diesel. I miss working on my G, so much easier!
+ New altornetor (life time wrnt) 90amp from 2000 eclipce
+ New starter (life time wrnt)
= car running like a champ
Im with you on the boschQuote:

Just thought I'll let you know my experience with PIAA. I bought the "PIAA Forza Hybrid Silicone" from tirerack, they are awesome wiper blades and fit and look great, but, they had some kind of design flaw. What used to happen is, at slow speeds the wipers used to wipe the windshield perfectly clean with no chattering or streaks. But when you cross 45mph, the driver's side wiper used to wipe perfectly clean when it was moving up, but used to leave a huge spot right in the middle when moving down. For some reason at higher speeds (probably the wind), it lost contact with the windshield. I checked my wiper arms etc and put back the valeo ultimates I had, and it never happens. So it was just a problem with the PIAA driver's side one.Quote:

I appreciate the honest opinion. The forza is the one without the frame right? Idk how I feel about those frameless blades. Greg stands by his bosch icons.Quote:

The Bosch Icons and the Valeo Ultimates are pretty much alike and frameless. The Valeo 600 are wipers with a frame and I've had good experiences with the 600s, and they are cheaper, but used them on a different car, not the Galant.
Valeo 600-

Bosch icons FTW!! Just last night both G's equipped with a fresh set.

Bought two new tires (pissed off though after finding out that I could've gotten four new tires AND the rims I wanted for just 580. I spent about 360 on tires alone!)
Flushed out the radiator by myself for the first time! Also cleaned out my throttle body (simple jobs for most of you guys but for me, I'm excited about it!)
Working on my brakes this weekend
Bought some winters wheels. Too bad they arent on and the blizzard is coming :(
I have had Icons on my G for damn near 2 years and they are just now starting to wear out... Awesome blades... Pulled my seats out and really cleaned my carpet.
Finally lowered the G
2" on the front

.5" on the rear (hopefully it goes a little lower once springs settle)

While I had everything apart I under coated where I couldn't reach in the wheel wells with the struts in place and cleaned up the chrome on my strut bars.

RPF1's 17" X 8" +35mm offset wrapped in 6-7/32" tread Falken Ziex 512 tires sized at 225/45ZR17.

Congrats, our Galants are twins, haha! Patriot Red & RPF1's, except I'm jelly of your offset, lol!
So I installed a new windshield wiper switch because it broke, washed the car & put in a 2013 4Runner cabin air filter. This was my old one, I bet it's the original & has never been changed:

Thanks guys! Guz, we sure are twins lol! Tommy I have slow leaks on two of my tires on the SSR's, so once I get the hubcentric rings I need I'm gonna throw the Enkei's on and get the Kumho's either repaired or replaced. Once that's squared away they'll come back for the warm weather; they're in top notch shape, I'd like to keep it that way. The Enkei's have a little wear, so they can see salt. If they get worse, during the warm months I can work on getting the Enkei's refinished.
Emerson and I raised up the coilovers today, it was 1 finger gap up front and tucking in the rear. Now its 2 finger gap up front and 1 in the rear. Also installed some Evo IX wheels on brand new tires (225/45/17 Achilles Tires).
