history
well so far i have done alot to the G, i paid 1000$ for it looking like this
just before the paint job
the car did have an e_mange on it, butt was removed, car was gona be a prototype for a turbo setup for 3g and galant, before i bought the car from my friend i did the timeing belt and headgasket on it, my buddy gave up on the car and it sat for a yr doing nothing, i ended up have a son so i needed a bigger car, so i bought the G from him, since the car sat i had alot of work ahead of me, car was throwing codes out the ass, so after fixing most of the easy ones and redoing the wiring harness it finally ran great, i put all new motor mounts and trans mounts, new belts and tune up,
2011
car sat for abit been working alot of hrs an spend time with the family
income tax i had the car repainted
shortly after the paint i went crazy

as of right now im am really happy with it, went to a car meet and ppl were like "i never seen a good looking Galant like your", made me really happy inside
right now im done, gona save up and start a collection of new mods/parts
i am goning todo a 5speed swap and rear disc conversion, and put new struts on. thats my goal before aug
as soon as i sell the saturn ill have enough to get what i need
looks like a good start... keep it up
2002 5spd swapped
under construction.....
Did you get the whole car painted? That rear bumper seems as if it is a different color. Other than that, good start and hope to see more.
yea the whole car was repainted, i had to order a new rear bumper and the body shop didnt primer it like they did the car, the rear bumper was flat black and rdy for paint, thats y its darker then the rest of the car, one day after work im gona go to them and bitch about it and hopefully they will repaint it, butt its gona be a pain to match the rest of the car, so i might be stuck with it unless i get jdm parts......Originally Posted by Boosted
big things coming up, stay tuned ppl
question. how long did it take u to do ur 5speed swap???????
well here are the parts,
struts some what put together with new bump stops and bellos
new front sway bar end links with grease fittings (ebay)
new rear spring seat from (rockauto)
part # k7476
front and rear sway bar bushings from (energy suspension)
rear sway bar end links (ebay)
front bump stop/bello part#k90460 (rockauto)
rear bump stop/bello part#k90466 (rockauto)
anyone know if i should cut the bump stops or leave them the way they are?
car is on eibach pro kit
install starts saturday when the front struts get here
i didnt cut bump stops and im on eibachs too;make sure u grease those bushings plenty with the stuff it brings
No front shocks? Are you gonna lower it?
she is looking better and better. Cant wait to see the finish product!
its already lowerd on stock struts, look at the time stamp on the pics that are 3/27/2011
when i installed the eibach springs i noticed i needed more parts and i already had the struts apart
car has some bounce to it more in the rear, had no choice to install the springs with no rear spring seats witch is giving me camber.
front struts should be here friday
thxs man, did i win those rotors? lol
Sorry finald8ta. A Michael Koldus won the giveaway. They would look great on your car if you did win. :)
cmon im sure u can rig the next give away... lol
any who stop by the paint shop who painted the car and its going in for another paint job, reason is the paint is flaking on the front bumper and chipping in a few areas, also that rear bumper too, its all under warrenty witch wont cost me a dime,
ok guys put the .5 shorter belt, barely got it on butt it works
part# 365k5 (duralast)
well i installed new struts sat afternoon and well i fail big time.
ill let the pics do the talking
this is where i fucked up
this is the part i didnt install, its part of the old shock bello
this is the part installed, and everything is back to normal

Looks like regular gloss black to me. Plasti-Dip is textured and matte looking.

^well it depends how much you use for plasti dip, I've had my trim peices look smooth as glass, its just rubbery when you touch it. But true on the matte part lol
