SPC
specialty products company
You can get them from RRE
or ebay. Ebay is a bit more affordable if I recall.
John is correct...its made by SPC.
ALL updates of -G-rim will be on GalantTuners.com

What!!!!!!! What happened????????? Sad Day
What happened?!
What!?! Why?!
What happened? I saw you going on Pleasant Hill Rd about 2 weeks ago and immediately recognized the car!
I think he's parting it out, or some like that. I read it around the forums
Haven't done anything much to the car for awhile now.
Just time to move to bigger and better things..the days of -G-rim have been great but time to move on forward.
So whats gonna be the next project?
I smell... ... Evo X??
The new project is 85% done from its goal....though 95% done for it to actually run on its own power.
Doing something NEVER done on its platform in different areas.
The car is built and setup for dual duty DD and road course action.
Though...the debute and all updated progress will be on Galant Tuners.
when are you letting us know whats up your sleve??
damn i was scared for a minute i thought your were in an accident or something. glad your ok bro
Teasing us bro =)
After some advice from the 3 people that know about my project...i am going to post a teaser pic tonight.
Sup Kev.. Can't wait to see what you have planned...
The pic i am posting is just a teaser...nothing crazy. Just a small snippet of what i got up my sleeve.
Grim is no more...as the project is now the Night Fury Project.
The inspiration of Grim was no longer proper as I am now raising a son and me personally "growing up". I accomplished great things with Grim...but now the car is going through a new life with big changes and a new purpose. Inspired from one of my sons favorite movies "How to train a Dragon" and personally I like it also...the new name of my 7g is now "Toothless"
This car is built with a dual purpose as a light daily driver and a weekend road course car. I have done alot on replacing the suspension and drivetrain with a massive overhaul even replacing 95% of the drivetrain/suspension bolts with brand new OEM bolts. Thanks to Tuners Nation and BC Racing...for my tailored built coilovers and looking to more involvment with BC Racing as progress into more intense road course events.
I will go into more detail after the car is done..but like I said, I am doing something on this car that has NEVER been done on the 7g platform in many aspects and will break ground for future enthusiasts to 7g.
3 of the only people that truly know that I got up my sleeve know my plans and have pushed me to post a teaser shots of the car. Those who counted me out of the game...BIG mistake, I am like Jordan coming out of retirement.

OOH epic! Now I'm waiting to see more!!
Coming out of his first retirement right? lol
Looks good Kev!
New fasteners are the shit. Especially the suspension. Makes everything so much easier to work with. Keep us posted Kev. Glad you didn't give your car the axe.
I love it!!!!!!!!!
Never intended to axe the car..though there were times the past couple months I did want to. Rear subframe is fairly new..just replaced the mounting bushings/stoppers on it.
The front was a whole different story since the car spent its first years of ownership in up state new york. Rust was my enemy..and almost every single component in the front suspension was infected with rust. With that said..a new front subframe and 90% of the front suspension is brand new or newer with no rust with all new OEM bolts/washers/nuts.
Lets just say my local Mitsubishi dealer know me by name and have created a special spot for me in their warehouse for all the parts I have been ordering.
Haha I know what you mean man. My first GS was a local 1 owner car that stayed garaged. That thing was a dream to work on. The White GS is also from upstate New York(imagine that lol) I literally had to do the same thing you did. There were even bolts I had to saw apart. So when I went prothane, I started with all new bolts and control arms in the front and rear. Between that and snapping turbo bolts... new OEM fasteners are all my car has in the chassis, and on the engine.
So I feel your pain,
and I'll never buy another new york car lol and I'll never drive the GS in salt again.
Glad to know someone feels my pain..but opening the garage and seeing it sit the way it is now was worth all that crap.
In the end..at least I know I did things the right way, and this car deserves it.
that's my second reason for wanting to move to SC lol
hmmm, my 7G has been up here all it's life. i drive it in the snow and salt every year. I have literally no rust. i do however wash the undercarage everytime i drive it on the wintery roads.
I DEMAND MOAR PICS!!!!
Last teaser pic till the car is done....

GT though has a few more pics:icon_wink:
John...I actually sprayed a new layer of undercoating in the wheel wells and undercarriage after sanding down few minor rust spots. Other than the front subframe and suspension parts with rust..majority of the undercarriage was uneffected. Toothless only spent 2 years in up state NY..so it wasn't exposed too long with salt saturated winter roads.
Looks like brand new non-awd spindles. So that at least for now narrows the list down a bit.
I'm thinking a cage is in the works.
Also noticed the cross member laying under your car so I'm sure you have the motor pulled for one reason or another. Unless that was just for the sub frame install.
I dont want to deal with another AWD vehicle..i already have my GVR4 and now a Montero with a AWD system that is EPIC. I honestly like to drive FWD also...plus the light and nimble characteristics of Toothless is why its soo much fun to drive and i will lose that if i went awd. I am also inspired by the KBR Eclipse, destroying fwd stereotypes and this car isnt built to be a drag car either.
Plus my next awd vehicle is going to be imported in a couple years anyways. ;)
Hmmm....AWD import...curious
