Hello everyone . At first , I want to apologise for my bad English . I have a 91 mitsubishi galant with 4G63 SOHC 8V - 109 PS/ only front wheel drive / . I'm with stock suspension , but yestarday starts to make a front and rear strut braces . After I finish the strut braces , I want to get some coilovers , but I don't know for which eclipse or evo the coilovers are like mine stock suspension , because I can't find coilovers for those type of galant and I guess that they must be like 1G or 2G maybe ? And I want to ask can I put bigger brakes from another mitsubishi model without remaking ?
 
You should be looking at 1g DSMs that MIGHT have same or at least close parts that can be fitted. 2g is out of option.

I'd say your best bet though would be 89-92 Galant VR-4 parts: at least VR4 shocks and springs can be fitted to your car as bolt-on (my friend has them in his '91), so I guess VR4 coilovers should do the trick for you.

As far as brakes go I can't say for sure but at least dohc Galants have 2-pot brakes in the front from 91 and up, so check whether or not your front brake saddles are single or double cylinder ones.

Hope this helps. I can ask a friend tomorrow if he knows a good brake upgrade.

EDIT: Forgot his '91 Galant was an AWD, not FWD, so the VR4 coilovers are not a 100% sure match in yours. Sorry.
