    RedGalant's Progress.

    This was my original Galant, a Patriot Red Pearl 2001. Bought BRAND NEW, only having 1 mile on the odometer. I went and did only a few minor mods, it was mostly a daily driver.

    Just washed and waxed. I loved that color.


    A few of my favorite pictures. Also showing custom cleared corners.



    Added and AEM Cold Air Intake. And OEM 3G Eclipse strut tower bar.


    Added 17" OEM 3G Eclipse GT wheels.


    Painted Calipers and added "Galant" lettering decals on calipers.



    Debadged rear lettering, save the Mitsubishi logo which is snapped through the trunklid. Added Weapon R muffler, which actually sounded really good with the silencer in, kinda like the Injen for the Lancers. Also pictured was the color coded rear garnish.


    Then one faithful morning at 4:30am.


    Needless to say, that was that. Thankfully these cars are some of the safest on the road. I walked out, uninjured. No one was in the other car.

    Now this what I be rockin" a 2002 GTZ. I've upgraded.


    Right now just wheels and 8000k HIDs.

    Was from JVDGraphics.com he has done a few Group Buys on here and Club 3G. Great customer service, but it seems at least for me I can't get on his website.

    Your old Galant looks a lot like mine does now, with the clear corners and the 3G eclipse wheels, we even have the same painted calipers, and I de-badged the rear on mine as well. Good luck with your new one, it looks great.

    What would u rate the megans 1-10 with ten being the best?

  18. #18
    I'd rate them 8.5.

    I'd like electronic adjustability, but for the price I got these for I couldn't pass it up. That and considering the Tein with EDFC was 3x the cost I paid for the megans. Megan it was. Overall though they perform quite well, and are NOT nearly as rough as some people have said.

    I have them set at 22 front and 22 rear with 1" overall lowering at each corner. The car is noticeably flatter in handling. Flatter meaning just about zero body roll in hard cornering, and very precise dampening control otherwise. Great buy in my opinion, it would be a hard sell (save the EDFC electronics) of the Tein's or JIC Magics next time around.

    I couldn't imagine riding around w/ that many clicks on a daily basis. I mean I'd love it and all. but wow.
    Props for a sharp looking ride. Love the color.
