Was able to find a 92 center section so I installed the 92 tails and center:

Nice to see the car not in my cramped garage.

Wish I could have one of those, my honda is getting too boring and FWD FTL!

Re: 1945/2000 is mine!
 
FWD really is FTL. Use to think it was all-right, but then I met some friends at tech school and I went AWD and saw what I've been missing.

Well it is a Gay-lant so a tree of penises would not be that out of place

Yea, apparently to my friends that helped put this car together this weekend, the car is a flying penis fortress. lol

Galant is running and driving! Drove it 27 miles yesterday for the first time. Already the car drives better than my Talon did, but then again maybe thats because I have more poly bushings up front and the correct motor mounts. Still needs to be put up on the alignment rack, hopefully that'll happen tonight after work. Here's a bunch of pics twack and my friend took:

For anyone ever wondering, yes, a 1g filler neck and hose fits great:

Looks good! I think it may be time for a new valve cover color by now ;)

I know I should paint that some other color, but it reminds me of my Laser. lol

Gave the car an alignment at work today. I'm thinking one of my control arms is bent because one side has more camber than the other in the front end. I have some much better control arms that I had sand blasted then I painted them and put new moog ball joints in them. I just need to buy a poly bushing kit for them.

Pic of engine bay as is:

I need to pull the power steering pump out of the way and tighten the bracket that bolts to the block tonight yet. Somehow, it's loose and being my daily driver I can't have something happening.

Looks good. I say keep the valve cover the way it is. I kept the valve cover thats been on my last two cars and plan on putting it on my 2G when I do cams and head studs this spring.

I miss my GVR4 looking at this one! Haha. Looks clean and great man! :D

Re: 1945/2000 is mine!
 
Thanks guys! When did you sell your VR4? I must have missed that....

Re: 1945/2000 is mine!
 
If anyone is considering relocating their washer bottle on a GVR4, It's pretty easy. I was able to use the stock bottle, with an L bracket from the washer fluid bottle off my DSM. When I had the wire harness out for fixing, I pulled the two wires for the washer fluid motor through the grommit and then ran it behind the dash, through the dr. side fender, and out the grommit behind the dr. side motor mount. Just have to run new hose (which I had to anyway, old stuff was junk).

Looks way better in this location than where it is on the firewall from the factory.
