I parted out my 2g last year and I was looking to start another project, I was looking for something not very popular on the scene, 4 door preferably, something that people wouldn't expect to see with a 4g63, well here's a short story about how I got this 94 Mitsubishi Galant GS:
I was chasing it since last year, first time I saw it a young guy was selling it for like $1500, I contact him to check it out but I noticed that it was in the need of piston rings soon, he didn't want to lower his price so I just passed. Few weeks later the car was now at my neighborhood (new owner), since I pass very often by where the car was I noticed they stopped using it after a few months, one day I stopped by and left a note telling them that I would like to buy it if they are willing to sell it, they never answer me back, one day the guy called me asking if I could get him a good 4g64 DOHC head and I told him about how hard is to get that head since the production was so limited in the US (I know he could get it rebuild but I guess he was looking for a quick replacement), again I ask him if he would like to sell it he said no
Well I guess he gave up and finally post it on CL last week for $1000, I sent him an offer that he couldn't refuse and here we go
Why this Galant? Because I like them and even more this version since maybe is the rarest in the US
The Car has 150k miles, paint is original and still in good shape, engine has no compression on cylinder #3 maybe a valve? who knows I find out later, anyway a 4g63 will be going here soon
Some parts that I already have for the swap
One of the first mods I made a 3g Eclipse Steering wheel
And Toyota Celica Seats
Fun Time!
Took the whole wiring harness to convert it to 2G DSM Turbo wiring harness
Upgrade to 97-99 FI Connectors
I Wired the FI Resistor Box
2G Turbo Capacitor
Fuel Pressure Solenoid
Waste Gate Solenoid
The 94 Galant GS ECU has only 3 Connectors (2g Type, pretty much like EVO I-III ECU)
In order to use a 2g ECU I had to add the extra ECU connector, then wire some pins and swap another ones to the right location for the 2g ECU
Well this is it for now, I will post more updates later
