Booya!

I put the upper pipe on today too, but the black couplers fit for shit, so I had to use the blue one that came with it
I'll be changing more stuff too.

I need someone to polish some stuff for me.

I see a purple HKS timing belt in your near future !

"Hoses" look nice, are they aluminum, and did you weld them up yourself? I've been thinking about doing this now that I know how to weld and have access to welders..

 

[Gamble97]

Actually , I had a aluminum timing belt cover but it broke.
The upper pipe can be had off ebay for $45 plus shipping, the lower one I had made and had someone do it all for me. I wish I had a welder let alone knew how to weld.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I love the ### purple..It looks sweeeeet!!

Thanks man. It's all dirty too, it looks great when it's clean.
I wanted a color that is different. A lot of people like it, but then there are some that look at me like WTF purple?! Are you serious?

 

[SleeperG]

i had the whole purple theme going on my black galant. Looked so sick. right down to the D2's
I was in the proccess of getting a set of HKS cam gears and timing belt, then I totaled the car.
purple doesn't look as good on the white galant.

Your engine bay is super sexy!!!!!
Pick up the JMF polished FP manifold heat sheild!

Looking great. Makes me want a set of coolant pips for my galant.

 

[Project2G]

Looks similiar to mine.

 

[PieEyedPiper]

Do you have the solid aluminum motor mounts?
The pipes look great but I'm wondering what it will be like with solid pipes and some engine movement.

 

[bastarddsm]

Gamble your all excited about those!! haha. I also am curious about engine movment?

 

[z24frank]

Bump for engine movement was wondering the same thing.

 

[Gamble97]

My friend has had the upper pipe on his car for a long time and he has solid mounts, no problems on his end. I may end up upgrading mine in the future. I would like to get the aluminum front motor mount and that should be all it needs.
I have the JMF heatshield, but I hate how it fits. Those bolts always come loose. I was going to put it back on but I was painting something and got some overspray on it. Guess I didn't move it far out of the way and I have no idea on how to clean the overspray off. Any idea's?
Once I get that on and fix my timing cover and clean her up I'll get some new pics.
I also want to polish my fp intake.

This was my other most recent pic before I changed the piping.

The intercooler piping is the biggest change.

Just use some mothers or something to get the overspray off.

Great looking radiator pipes

 

[LiquidGS-T]

I'm all about the purple man, looks good. really clean too.

You got a nice mod list too.


Pipes look good. I guess the radiator mounts have a little bit of play aswell. Hope it works out for you. Keep us posted

 

[Gamble97]

Oh you really can't see the radiator mounts but they are the hayame ones. I'll get better pics when it's all done.

 

[DSMunknown]

Not sure if I'd trust the worm clamps to hold. Assuming you have the pipes beaded, yes?

 

[No_Skillz]

Get some hump couplers on there for engine movement!

 

[DSMunknown]

^ I was going to mention that, but I'm not aware if they make them that small. I could be wrong. It's happened before.

I don't know why, but I just can't get into the whole hard radiator pipe thing. With the metal intake pipe and all the intercooler piping, it always looks like too much. If it were me, I'd get some nice Samco coolant hoses and call it quits. Thats what looks best in my opinion.

 

[interex]

I too have done all my stuff in purple.

 

[92AWDHX40]

Hey nice engine bay, good work keep it up.

 

[Gamble97]

Thanks guys. As soon as I get a job I'll be getting some new couplers. Unemployment sucks.

 

[92DSMErdrick]

That looks really cool, def a nice idea compared to doing SS lines, having fittings welded to the thermostat housing, lower pipe and buying an aluminum radiator
