Utah Galants - Professional Photo Shoot

[WarmAndSCSI]

I know maybe a few of these were posted before, but here we go. The silver 8G is boostzealot's 6G74-swapped, 230 WHP N/A beast. The orange one is mine. It's slow.

Thanks.

And no, it's just the opposite. It's been an ongoing debate but black actually radiates heat better to some degree, ignoring light absorption.

BJ's, right now, by 230 WHP. My Galant is out of commission for a while. Nothing wrong with it, but I'm taking some time to do a lot of things I've been putting off. Preventative maintenance, and other stuff.

Shouldn't have any problem fitting one, no? I can't obviously because I have piping that runs behind my IC. "Why don't you do a JDM conversion?" Well....

cars are sick

[sponcar]

nice pictures..!!

[WarmAndSCSI]

Thanks. I'd like to get some shots of all of the local cars, but I have to have somebody drive one of mine. The next ones at least will be of my new car.

if you look at my bumper, it sticks out about an inch in a half form my grill. behind the grill there is no room for anything it barely fits around my power steering cooler. i can remove that and use a smaller unit, but their still wouldnt be enough room. im either gonna use the OEM bumper or an old style vr4 bumper.

Thanks.

Well I'm dropped on Megan Street coilovers... but

D3 Designs mid chassis brace
D3 Designs rear chassis braces
Eclipse GT OEM front strut tower bar
Addco rear anti-sway bar - 22 mm
Megan Racing rear lower tie bar (solid)
Megan Racing Street coilovers
Mevotech front endlinks (MUCH thicker than stock and better balljoints)
Whiteline adjustable rear endlinks (fronts from an STi)

BJ was slammed on Ksport coilovers in those pics. Not practical for everyday use. But I'm riding on 245/45R17's so they require less of a drop to fill up the wheel wells, thankfully.

Thank you, im just trying to figure out my suspension setup and I like your stance.

Great pics! What was the lighting setup on the still shots? I love the rolling ones too. I'm quickly getting sucked in to photography haha

[WarmAndSCSI]

Some funky voodoo shit.

Actually it said somewhere on my photographer's Flickr what lighting setup he used, but it's definitely a few external devices.

nice pics! not used to seeing the FMIC stick out like that, but still looks pretty damn good :D
awesome suspension setup too, i'm sick of springs and struts, gotta do coilovers soon
