    Iv only been driving the G for a yr now and personally I can't believe I did all this work in 1yr.

    Crazy yet well worth it,
    Just keep an eye out for a parts car on Craigslist like I did and help them pull the motor for a better deal.

    never did post pics of the rear disc swap due to my phones sd card taking a crap.
    i ended up painting the hats on the rear rotors so there will be no rust showing..
    and replaced the front pads and put a fresh coat of paint on them

    It really not to bad to fix that, just depends what u wnat if had lotta body damage and that then maybe starting with new g makes sense, but if u can't find a cheap one get ASA get part numbers for body part have a shop undo the spot welds and check dimensions and ur golden then put everything back on yourself.

    The core support can be replaced, iv don't it before on a few diff cars. It just the car has been in a few recks before I owned it and personally its un safe, ill use this car as a future project that no one has attempt todo which is v6 rear wheel drive

    Damn that sucks. It looks salvageable, but it's probably not a bad idea to find a better body G and swap parts over. Get a non-running one from an auction or something.

    Just putting this out there for a reference for future 5-speed swappers. The adjustment for the clutch pedal is by feel when it comes to the Galant. You cant really go off the spec in the manual since it for the Eclipse. This is from my experience seem like the pedal has better travel in the 3g than the Galant. I adjusted my pedal up until the clutch disengaged and I didnt adjust any further. 15psi of boost and no slip whatsoever..
