Changed front brake pads today
changed my oil (Penzoil Ultra 5w30 and a Bosch filter), tightened the damn accessory belt, finished up installing my ground kit and completed my 6g74 throttle body swap
Had that never ending problem wit my 1st g (4g64) think the water pump and radiator made the biggest difference....color was never really green again thougH
The fiancé washed her today while I was asleep. Pretty nice surprise :)
What happens when tap water is used to dilute concentrate antifreeze. I always fill on straight 50/50 which is already mixed with distilled water, yea I have to but 2 gallons rather than 1 but hey, out of 3 mitsus 0 have had that orange rust looking stuff in tbe cooling system.

Not sure what it does, but iirc the chlorine rusts the inside or some shit. When you buy straight antifreeze it says to use distilled water instead of tap.
Searched around for ya and came up with this:
I don't know about "BAD" I guess it would depend on your tap water. If you live somewhere with lots of stuff in the water (Iron, calcium, or at a PH extreme) using tap water would be bad. Using distilled water ensures that you are not putting water that contains stuff that will clog, rust, oxidize, etc your engine's cooling system.
Dude once you have that orange shit and it overflows into your overflow or god forbid your radiator got old and the top plastic tank springs a leak....you will want to sell your car or replace the every part that has anything to do with the cooling system...the rustiness on mine got sooo bad that it ate the propellers on my water pump lmao..I wish I had a pic. Needless to say I sold it..
I'd say these were bad

Just because Red is so common
If calipers are stock, I go black or silver. No need to show off small stock equipment.

True.
Time to get me some silver to match the car. I dont know, might throw in a design
The shades of gray was looking kind of dull to me so I decided to put some life into my car with the yellow caliper paint. Idk I like how it turned out so far
I finally got some Evo IX wheels I've been eyeing up but I need to strip it of the black paint from the previous owner. Still I got them for a steal so I can deal with the crappy look for now, hopefully Wed and Thurs it doesn't rain since I have those days off.
Nice bro...sold mine...miss em like hell...
Soap and a fresh coat of wax...look at those wheeeeeelz lol

pulled the motor, still have a few things to pull from this old shell, mostly 5speed parts, and its off to the scrap yard she goes, this shell is a lemon if your all wondering, its been in 5 wrecks, no airbags, and frame damage beyond repair,
im keeping the motor for a rebuild till i find another Galant, not sure if ill do a fully built motor or just clean it up and freshen the motor up with new seals and gaskets, im doing some research to see what i can do and see what the evo guys are doing to the 4g64 block
i like to here your thoughts on the subject
