New 8g Member (pics) from the DSM world.

Well, after owning and building DSMs for 7 years. I finally had to sell my baby and move on to something more reliable to get me to my last couple semesters of college.

And thus, I introduce my new Galant. Originally I wanted to get something newer but I found this gem and couldn't pass it up.
2001 Galant ES (v6) with 57k on the odometer.
Carfaxed to be a single owner locally who had it serviced at the local Mitsu dealer regularly and has never been crashed.

I hope to see an active community here like I experienced in the DSM world with DSMtuners.

Also, if anybody knows of any good local Galant sites in UT, I would appreciate the info.

welcome to TGC.

yea, the Galant is definately more reliable than DSMs. I have 2 and theyre more high maintenace than the G.

welcome, wow that thing is super clean and low miles too, there are actually two very well known galants in utah, check out mitsubishipowered.com, you can't miss them there

I used to live in Ogden. What school are you going to?

Welcome to the site!

I'm a junior up at Weber State University pursuing my degree in Business Administration: Supply Chain Management.

You got rid of the DSM? For the Galant? J/K

DSMs are just like every other car. They leak, they break, they need maintenance. Stop trying to make them faster and they don't break as easy ;)

welcome, car is clean

galants are more reliable DSM's

its funny how our 7gs have the same parts but dont break as much lol

welcome to TGC

clean

o yea i also forgot to mention that that car is immaculate.. hows the interior on it?

The interior is flawless. Stock everything, non smoker, no stains, no rips, and still smells like a new car.

:grin:

Welcome, looks like mine did when I first bought it.

God I miss when mine looked like that.

Thats it I'm going to detail mine when I get out of school for the semester.

Wow, I would do so many things to your car.. LOL.. Welcome!

Welcome to the site!

There are two very fast and unique Galants in Utah, definitely the right state to be in. I'm glad you didn't pass this car up, it looks like it just came out of the factory. Buy the super clean white 7G for sale in another thread right now and you have the perfect pair...

awesome G bro! looks VERY VERY VERY Clean

Thanks guys!

I don't think I will be doing much at all performance wise on this vehicle.
Just a few aesthetics I would like to take care of such as the wheels.

Also, what is that black deflector looking thing some of you have on your back window?

welcome

This is an EGR Rear Window Visor. Many members picked them up long ago through a group buy. Some may be used and floating around for sale, but they are somewhat difficult to come by in new condition. There is also a JDM Rear Window Visor which has a more inward shape as opposed to the shelf style of the EGR. Expect to pay between $80 and $200 for either of these...

welcome.

Welcome to TGC!

You picked up a nice car...8g's are solid cars and look very good at that. Many things you could do to a 8g performance and asthetically. I am sure you will find out once you situate yourself here.

suppper clean!

welcome
