I decided to part ways with my STi and I am going to start daily driving the galant. I bought it from my best friend, and he got off to a pretty good start on making it a solid, reliable car. I am getting ready to take it all apart again and finish what he started. I need to fix some oil leaks, put in a new clutch disc, and I am also doing a 5lug/4bolt swap. I am also working on replacing all the bushings.
I have already aquired quite a few nice parts, and bought a parts car so I have a short shopping list left. I wanted to see if I am missing anything. I don't plan on having the engine out again for a long time. I have a truck I can drive that I use for towing, so some down time in the future is fine. It just can't turn into JSB status.
Parts I have
-SPEC disc (friend install new SPEC pp and a OEM tob)
-resurfaced A.C.T. flywheel
-Avid mounts
-Cometic gasket kit
-Fluidampr pulley (car has cheap alum one now)
-Brass shifter cable bushings
-5 lug hubs
-rotors
-full DSM rear subframe with LSD 4 bolt
Shopping list
-Rear subframe and mustache bushings
-1g full bushing kit (so I can do rear arms now)
-brake pads and fluids
My friend has suggested OEM Mitsu front and rear main seal kits, and also a new OEM oil pump case (have 2 used spares) It seems unneccessary to me, so I'm looking for opinions. Also, anything that should be done while rear subframe is out? Thanks in advance
