Ricer Pete's Galant
 

As many of you know, I own a 2001 Galant GTZ (spoiler, leather, sunroof trim).

The most recent pics I have;

Currently my performance mod list is;
- KYB AGX and Tein Suspension (2" drop)
- Injen SRI
- Strut Tower Brace (thx halon)
- Custom straight pipe axle back exhaust (thx M///guy)

And also, as many of you know, my POS car put down a mind boggling 133 whp at the last dyno day. That hopefully will change soon :)

For my cosmetic mods, which I know most of you aren't into, I have;
- 17' Centerline gunmetal rims wrapped in crappy tires
- 35% tint
- S7 Reverse glow gauge with CF trim
- CF eyelids
- EGR Rear Visor
- Tinted tails (sometimes)

Now the reason why I started this thread is because I recently came about a deal I couldn't pass up.

I bought an entire front end JDM conversion for my car;
- Dual housing headlights with citylights
- VR4 style grill
- New style VR4 bumper
- New style VR4 fog lights

BIG thanks to Mark (TKR) for his help installing the headlights. I owe you lots of beer!

I'm now just trying to get my hands on some corner splitters (only available in Europe). Once I do, everything will get painted and hopefully my should look very similiar to this.

So I'm pretty excited. I never wanted to do anything to my Galant until I saw a world spec one. I know my car is a slow POS, and cosmetic stuff and JDM crap is not what the majority of this site likes, so feel free to ask questions, flame or whatever. :)

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant

You can't mind a good looking car, esp. a unique one.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

thx, i added a couple pics of how my car sits now :)

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Lookin good!! Cant wait to see it painted!

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Sweet choice on the body parts. Do they make supercharger kits for the galants with the 6g73?

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

6G72 ;)

tearstone used to make them, but i dont think they do anymore. i only know of two galants that are S/C and both are custom setups.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

just need a 50trim

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

My bad, you have the 3.0. Want to trade engines? :P

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

you seriously think you can make that work in my car? it looks like a mess lol!

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

we could get it to work. If the mirage guys can stuff it in to there car's and get it all wired up. It would be easy on your cars big engine bay. or just go with a evo engine

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

find me an evo engine for cheaper than that 61A3TT ;)

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

to bad this is not in the US
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-9...spagenameZWD1V
then it would be easy

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Jhot in tx has 2 evo 4 engines compleat. That is were all my parts come from

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

ugh thats a wetdream waiting to happen right there... holy crap.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

You know you wanna do it!!!

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

looks good not bad for a few hours to get them to fit the right way and wired up the right way also. Unlike the other guys that hacked the hell out of there cars and did a crapy wire job on there's

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Did you get the lights slotted so they fit right now? The new lights look way better.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Thats a very cool car! cant wait to see the next thread with the engine swap! lol

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Just for unique purposes, you should go with the 6a12tt. IMO.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

It would have to be the 6a13tt in pete's car the 6a12tt sits the wrong way (sits like a dsm set up)

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Stop knowing everything...good Lord!

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

+1, stop typing, order it up! What kind of power would that thing put down?

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

do it now.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

stock
8.5:1 compression
276 crank hp
268 ft-lbs

one of the mirage guys is running it in his car fwd made 485whp at 28psi on e-85 (bone stock engine) on a dyno jet

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Hmmm. Do you think it would be fairly straight forword to swap it into an avenger?

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

DO THIS!!!

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

any thing can be done. what way does the engine sit in the avenger. sense there are the same engine bay as a dsm so it will bolt in it if it faces the right way. it would but just wiring

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

I share a 2.5L verson of the same v6 in Pete's Galant. 6g73. I'll stop cluddering up his topic now.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

Nice i like it. Looks like a mini EVO 10. All you need is a jdm evo motor with that huge front mount. Keep us posted. Nice job.

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

the heads needed just a bit of tweaking, but they are completely flush with the hood now. i was shocked a little on how well they fit.

LOL! thats what im saying. mark's knowledge and skill > *

can i have back the money i paid to ban people? then i might have enough haha jk ;)

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

mark, i asked the seller about the clip... where its cut, whats included.

"Yes, it is Right Hand Drive. It was cut to the A-pillar. I don't have more pictures of the dash, because the steering column and dash is damaged and unuseable but under dash wiring along with shifter and Shift cable will be all included as well."

how big of a problem do we have? should we look for a different front clip?

Re: Ricer Pete's Galant
 

see if they can get you pics of it all and what is missing from it. dash's can be fixed
