    allow me to introduce my 97 GST

    i would like to introduce my fully built 6 bolt swapped 97' galant
    i have been collecting parts for the better part of 6 years. the car has gone through many cosmetic changes in its life. but now it finally is a complete dsm.

    Engine:
    arias pistons
    manley rods
    fully rebuild long block
    1g head
    hks 272 cams
    double spring kit
    valves + guides
    New intake valves, +1mm exhaust valves

    Turbo/exhaust
    Full 3" turbo back 2g exhaust
    Frank 3 turbo aka 20G with the garret wheel
    tial 40mm external wastegate

    We start with the tear down



    Getting the 4g64 ready to pull


    Tranny dropped


    exhaust removed and compared to my 2.5" garbage




    and its gone!


    The old meeting the new


    tranny mounted up



    after a fresh timing job, she fit like a glove



    Just getting ready to finish the wiring



    engine bay comparison



    next challange was to overcome the tach issue. the 7g galant had a distributor so it won't read the tach signal. so i surgically removed the 2g tack and placed it in my cluster. perfect fit.




    after 2 weeks driving it around



    The pretty snail after i cleaned up some wiring



    As she sits right now




    I'm just waiting for my afpr and she will be running on speed density in no time. Special thanks go to my buddy ben who really helped me alot! as well as MKO aka chris for answering those late night texts

    Chris, you going to MOD? If so, I may have trouble keeping up with you this time!

    yes sir, she yanks hard. and its not even tuned yet. it's on 10lbs with factory tune. but all the engine mods are helping it move

    believe it or not. the swap isn't too bad. i had been prepping for a while so it was painless. fired up on first try after we switched the coils around

    That's awesome. I hope you can make MOD. I will be in attendance this year with the Evo. Have fun keeping up with Drew and I Greg.

    I wish I could bring the 7G but I unregistered it for the winter. Maybe if I have it next year I will bring it.
