    You know i have thought about bagging my g also but decieded against it due to my plans of it being sporty, not show piece. But i am still digging the idea nice work hope. You are able to drop the front more it'll look hot when your done.

    I would like to know who it was so I can get some ideas. I am going to move the front upper strut mounts on top of the tower and that should get me another 1/2 to 3/4 inch drop. I would like to know what he did though.

    This kit will be around 2500 not including labor when its in. Not including anything I had to modify or fabricate to make it work.

    I got the front to come down another inch. I could prob still get it lower but the G has some short ass shocks up front so it takes some work. I have been chasing air leaks for 2 days and I almost got em. One more to fix and Im good. Finally got it out of the shop and cleaned up. Getting the alignment done tomorrow.

    Here's how it sits now aired out.





    This is prob going to be ride height. Maybe a little lower. We will see when I get the alignment.

    Looks good, but to me the style of wheel doesnt match up with the suspension setup. Thats a tuner/racing style wheel, and you have air suspension which would be more along the lines of a luxury or VIP style wheel...

    Thanks guys! I drove it home today and I cant be happier with the air ride. I never liked the way the car felt with the Eibach's and KYB's. It always felt like the front end weighed a ton. Now it is so much more firm, the ride is awesome and it looks badass!

    I still have some slow leaks to track down then on with the body and paint. I will keep you guys updated.

    Man its been 4 ever since I posted because I couldn't find the forum lol. Anyway I will be tearing it apart for an all over paint job soon and will keep the updates coming.

    Thinking about losing the air ride susp. Anyone have idea's for a coilover setup. I have my old KYB's and Eibachs. May just put them back in for now.

    BC racing coils are great, plus they make an extreme drop kit that goes lower than the standard kit.

    Are those factory mud/splash guards? I don't think I've ever seen a galant in person with em.

    They look nice. I will have to sell the air ride setup to afford a set but that is def the way I want to go. Would rather do a coil over than the KYB and spring set I had before.

    Yup. I bought a set of the little stone guards to put on there too. Will be doing them after I paint the car. Should be getting started on it soon.

    Prob. They camber in big time when its all the way down. Not sure of the spec. The tire rubs something when I air it down cause I can smell burnt rubber when I do. Havnt looked to see what its actually hitting though. Clears the quarter panels though.
