ok im sure if you have been in the chat you have heard me talk about it. well here it is...

1991 Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 #613/2000. for those that dont know, just 3000 of them 2000 in 91, another 1000 in 92. AWD, turbo, 4G63, 4WS, etc.... its like an EVO, before there where EVO's... (Mitsu wanted to rally, so they made the Galant AWD, then used the Lancer Evolution after)... its NOT a DSM.

random:




^gay ass stock intake arm... mine was way simpler of a setup.

^weak ass 1g shorter shifter everyone puts in these things SUCKS, so i hacked up the Galant one. for what i call the perfect height (stock Galant was about 1.5inch taller than mine), bent towards me (instead of the stock away) and now uses a 10x1.5 knob (like a Honda)... its cleaned up and black now.




think thats all for now... come back later for more lol... 

[ratcityrex]

to bad its a dsm

You didnt post pics of the baller wheels?

[turbohf]

i knew that shit was coming before i even clicked on this....wait, im a global mod now, i can fix that


oh yeah...



RacingHart Type C2... 17x7.5 (im told) 3 piece. not sure on the offset. about 38-40et im guessing... judging by the casting marks on the back, circa 1999. 
these will be painted to mimic the stock wheels (pull the centers/caps and painted Belize Green). then probably get some 225/40's, cuz these 205/40s hopefully smoke up

[Ntrain2k]

Intercooler?

[ratcityrex]

Intercooler?

IndyRacecore/Spearco 2-216 intercooler

[Ntrain2k]

feck I'm blind

[turbohf]

Intercooler?

IndyRacecore/Spearco 2-216 intercooler

it has a fmic stock... if you wanna call it that. its like a mk3 supra one, but 1/2 the size. looks like an oil cooler LOL...

its cold as ballz outside, and snowing. also missing a BOV flange, and at least 1 coupler i need. shits backordered/lazy to find one. so i should get that shit figured out in the next week or 2, and fabbed/installed. ill go out an take a pic of this thing tho. ballin.

[92CXyD]

I have two of those old Supra intercoolers if ya want one. 

[turbohf]

ok... 3 intercoolers.

IndyRaceCore/Spearco 2-216
idk intercooler that was on my 400whp B16A screamer
EMUSA chinacooler off the ITR/CRX (300whp)



2-216 core measures: 24x10.5x3.5 

[chris]

go score a throttle body at the j yard and send it in would like to get my fixture set up for some dsm stuff


Lets trade some stuff for labor sir

[turbohf]

probably not going to touch the motor. i might put some HKS272's in it. but we will see how fast i can get this thing moving.

when/if i build a 2.4 tho. probably will need a ported TB, ported intake, etc.

[crxvtec91]

About damn time! Those tb are small as fuck upgrade that shit.

[snm95ls]

Does like.

[Cmak]

Its a 60mm TB, I don't know why thats considered small, people have made 500whp on them.

[ratcityrex]

Because most of the honda rhmters run a 68 - 74mm throttle body. Or a stocker that has been over bored by chris m

[JACER63]

looks like a fun dd. will you be bringing this to the meet? deff needs some stance work and wheels..

[Minor Threat]

You can tell yourself it's not a DSM all you want, it's still a Mitsufeces.

[turbohf]

looks like a fun dd. will you be bringing this to the meet? deff needs some stance work and wheels..

yeah, i will probably bring this to the meet. would like to bring the CRX also. and maybe a Hyundai with a turbo swap 

GVR4 will be getting the wheels above. PROBABLY with the centers/caps color matched to the car. and some 225-45-17 tires. lowered on something... RHMT EVO IX suspension, or taiwanese coilovers unless i can find some baller USA/JDM coilovers for jew'ness.

CRX will hopefully be on some 16" TE37's before spring, and have a RHMT'ed A6 swap... i dont promise that tho lol... (the showing up, wheels, or running)

You can tell yourself it's not a DSM all you want, it's still a Mitsufeces.

as long as we are clear that Chrysler had no part in this.

What you're really not getting is that Chrysler wasn't the problem with DSM...

[turbohf]

fuckme...



 




ok. its gonna need some bigger tires forsure. and lowered 3inches.... fuck. im broke. spent all my money...

[theidealone]

Those look sick! Thank you for not painting them yet. LOL. Just needs a drop, and youre good to go.

[turbohf]

ehh, still not my style. but it does look good aside from the    status. watching CL right now. think i found some 225-45-17 bridgestones for 150bucks used, 7-8/32... for the 4... the tires on the wheels are minty fresh 205-40-17s... just too small. little shorter than the stock wheels/tires (195-60-15). would be nice to have tire little larger, and definitely wider.

[ratcityrex]

Those look pretty good. Needs more sidewall and a drop!

[turbohf]

working on the drop. i grabbed that stock EVO IX suspension from my buddy. really looks like it has 57miles on it too lol. now just needs to not rain tomorrow, then i can cut it up.

[crxvtec91]

Those look pretty good. Needs more sidewall and a drop!

[turbohf]

so i got a promotion of sorts at work, and i work mon-fri now. so i was able to sneak my car in the shop at work today lol. did the suspension. the guys on the GVR4 forum have done this many times. im using 57mile '06 EVO IX GSR stock suspension. i cut about 1.5 coils off the front. swapped the Galant top hats to the front. the rear i cut the stock bushing off the Galant shock, and welded it to the EVO shock... RHMT yo!  it rides nice and stiff...kinda like an EVO 


pics:

mid process, just the fronts



pulled it out back to get a decent pic.

i had one of the guys there help me align it real quick. he sets it up then goes "YES!... i dont have to align the rear!" lol. referring to the AWS setup.
got like -.5-.7 camber on the fronts i think. dont recall the rears. drives nice tho. needed aligned even at stock height really.

yes, i realize i could probably use a coil cut out the rear also. but i was running low on time, didnt feel like fuckin with it anymore...


thats all for today. i might work on some fuel/tuning/intercooler shit tomorrow... might. its probably going to rain, then ill bitch out... unless i can push the CRX far enough forward in the garage to sneak the bumper inside?... mmm...
 
 

[HiProfile]

I actually like the rake it has now. But it will probably get aid in front traction with stiffer rear springs. I'd just leave it as-is.

well, we will see how it looks on the new wheels. with the OEM;s in place i dont mind the look. and im too lazy to change. but with the new 17s and lowpro tires? might need lowered some more in the back. i cant lower the front anymore as there is no more tension on the spring lol. i might get some custom GC sleeves/springs. but asis im fine.

[shogun]

the car is looking amazing, can any suspension kit can be used in old galant, ill sell my cusco coil overs to a friend for his vr4, they were in a evo 5 though

thanks.

i think that all the EVO suspensions have the same problem. plus you cant use the EVO camber plates unless you redrill the body for the different pattern.
