I'm currently living in California, but the Galant is still back in VT. 280/1000 just got it's full FIA spec. cage for Mt. Washington in June 2014, so the entire interior is available, including:-all interior door panels -all seats -sunroof headliner -all plastic interior panels -seat belt...

Long story short - for the types of events that I do, the gap between 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4 could stand to be shorter to keep me in the power band. I'm honestly not sure if I have the DSM 1st gear or GVR4 1st gear, but either way, 1st gear is just about perfect for autox and hillclimb starts and I...

The old girl is making so many different noises now it's hard to keep them straight, but the current noisiest offender seems to be coming from the right front / center front area of the car when I hear it from the driver's seat. It's a true "creaking" sound that sounds a bit like rubber on...

Finally bust my ice driving cherry with the GVR4 last Saturday. Gotta say, even with too much roll stiffness, moderately worn studded snows, and too low a ride height and too high a spring rate, this car is a blast to drive on ice.The winter up here hasn't been wickedly cold, but it has...

So I'm looking for a way to functionally add more airflow to my radiator, intercooler, oil cooler, and planned brake ducts inlets located at the factory fog light openings. Ricing out the car is not a goal and really the resulting looks after installation are not that important to me either...

Will deliver to just about anywhere in VT, NH, or metro Boston area. I've daily driven this car since I bought it with 53k in Nov. 2005.Rotas in the picture above are NOT included. Car has stock steel wheels.The Good? -Complete 2.4 liter 4G64 6-bolt motor with only 60k ready to be...

So I'm keeping the decent white hood from 1432 to gut, install Paulo's CF hood vents in, add hood pins, and put on 280. Not hoping to shave a ton of weight, but anything you can remove from the front of these cars helps.Question is, who has done this already? I'm not sure just how much of...

So 280/1000 has had driveline vibration issues from day one of my ownership back in January. Symptoms are:-Varying degrees of vibration from ~12-25mph and then again from 35mph-50mph. -Vibration is less noticeable under hard acceleration or hard braking, but it's still there. -It's most...

Just looking for some ideas and some BTDT (been there done that)advice. Here's my current washer bottle "relocation" effort:Pretty lame way to lower it to have it clear the WL strut bar and still have the water injection system pick-up that's mounted underneath it not hit anything and not...

After trying in vain to source Tein camber plates for some time now (I guess not trying very hard), I saw that Hot Bits listed a separate part # for their camber plates. I can't remember where I saw the P/N, but it was in some PDF application guide on an .au site. In any case, Larry Parker...

Just have to give props to this gent from South Carolina. He boxed up and shipped out a fuel tank for me at an extremely reasonable price. Having a clean fuel tank basically has given my GVR4 a new lease on life. He went through a pretty time-consuming procedure to pull, pack, and ship a fuel...

Though I'm still just getting started in the pastime of attempting to hustle a 15 year-old car around a race track, I'm at a bit of a unique point in this evolution. Having done just four track events, at the same track, and with successive suspension and tire modifications between each event...

Mark Kaufman persevered through a long Whiteline group buy process. (Though nothing like the CF Hood GB )He delivered on the goods as promised. He saved a bunch of us a ton of money and was great with communication throughout.He also continues to work on custom suspension set ups for the...
