Went back to all motor, not including a lot of things we pulled off the day before, because i didnt want anyone messin with stuff.. Last time i had my car worked on, they screwed up my FPR.. Im still cleaning the interior as we speak, still got grease stains all over place, its a good thing i pulled my Sparco's out before..

hahaha, you need everything... A lot of the cooling for the tranny had to be custom fabricated, not including we had to make new mounts to fit the 5spd on top of.. THe only real downside to have the 5spd, is that i lost having my cruise control, which for me is no biggie because i never used it, and who the hell whats to cruise in a 5spd Galant anywayz, and when i put her in reverse my lights do not come on.. Buts really about it, a lot of time, and just patience..

so what your sayin is all of this could be done in like one day depending on the labor and stuff but what i want to know from you in your honest opinion how much do you think this will run us guys that want to get this job done i mean you can make a guess and you don';t have to quote how much that other guy gave you a price on please we must know 8) :!:

My guy did it in more or less a day, because i needed my car back, and well it was slow..lol.. Just for parts and labor, and what other misc. stuff you add to it, i would say easily 3-4g's..

Congrats again Shane....it's good to see alot of people making breakthroughs with the G-rides....I know it feels good to be the first to tackle something like that.

Just giving everyone a heads up... i should be doing my five speed swap by the end of the month... a little different from Shane's if everything works out right... im going to use a Evo 4 tranny... couple issues to work out first ill tell everyone how it goes when i get it done.

**Khopari** · 05-10-2003, 08:06 AM

Is there a differnce in the tranny of the Evo to the Galant? i think there should be as in performance.... but just wnana make sure

Potr · 05-10-2003, 02:07 PM

the only problem i see right now is that the tranny has a cross member on it that will cause issues... and i need to weld the awd to fwd... but other then that its pretty much the same...
