GSX_TC's Galant VR4 Build Thread #550/2000 (Samara)

[GSX_TC]

Lol copy?? Smh. Oh no, I hope you realize this isn't a damn copy and that it's in fact made by the man himself, Albert. This is an improved version over the older ones.

How are you ever going to drive your car when you'll be cleaning all the shiny stuff everyday?

JK. Looks damn nice Mike.

You love not saying what sh*t is, just that it's secret squirrel and made by "your guy". I noticed that it looked like DVDTfab. I wonder if he's resolved the issues Mike Reichen had with the original...

When it's finished, if you want, I will pay cost of dyno time, shipping and a rental fee to you... if you'd like to have it compared vs magnus street & magnus cast (I have access to both).

I love not saying what sh*t is?? Lol yeah ok, I guess you must have missed the past few years I've been in the game TELLING WHAT I HAVE when I get a part followed by 87 pics of the same godamm part right? Lol

My bad, let me quote where you told what the part was, the first with the initial post:

Quoting GSX_TC:
Here's a sneak peak of what I have in the works for the VR4. It's still being made by him currently.



And then after dozens of questions about the manifold:

Quoting GSX_TC:
I'm doing this because, it's something different that hasn't been done yet on our intake manifolds, that and I've been needing to improve my intake side of the build anyways.

The person making these made like 3 or 4 of them for himself and friends.



It's nice that it's not just a knock off, but other than the bad experience Reichen had, did anyone who actually makes big power ever run Albert's manifold successfully? I mean, it sure looks the part, but... The original run was also $200 or $300 more than a Magnus cast. This is part of why i'm interested in comparing the two.

I'm running a magnus street manifold with a turbo that flows the same lb/min as your 35r, so if it's going to decimate anything, it should be that. I'm happy to get the results, and I'm happy to let english run the tests so there's no shenanigans from my side, if you don't trust that it'd be a fair comparison. I'll also include the full ECMLink logs, fwiw.

 

[GSX_TC]

When I step up my game a bit more I'll be sure to compare stuff myself. That'll be fun, def won't be sending off my manifold anywhere that's for sure.

 

[slugsgomoo]

figure it'd be easier to send one, versus come up with two more but /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsdunno.gif

 

[prove_it]

pSSHHHTT, Mike must have money pouring out his bumhole. He'll buy one and test it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'd really like to see the link log on it Mike. Link logs are like porn to me.

 

[marvinmadman]

I'm just curious about the Kozmic dyno day result. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

 

[GSX_TC]

Thanks Ryan,


Anyways, This new shift boot should go nicely with the red stitching on the EVO 9 SE seats and this custom Galant VR4 shift knob that glows to the same OEM green like in the speedo and clock etc etc.

 

[mitsuturbo]

all show. No go.

The only thing weaker than that dumbass new title Mike got from the noob mods was them deleting my last post.

Oh, and my new title. Noob mods FTW. Some real original material in here...



Honestly I feel bad for Mike, he pays a tuner, gets a good number there and then gets consistent based numbers on every other dyno. I think it's time to get someone like Lucas English, fathouse or Brad brooks to tune the car and figure out wtf is wrong.

As for the title, postwhore will the time and deliver your own beat down? Honestly if a log got posted here or ecmlink some of the same people poking fun would use their knowledge to help.

My thought on this would be the fact that whoever did this thought you could take a joke.

 

[GSTwithPSI]

Well, if you took the time to read my old title, you'd know that's not the case.

 

[EHmotorsports]

It doesn't make it ok for you to go crying just because you have an anger problem. Keep that sh*t off of others threads or I will continue to remove it. We don't need that type of negativity that just stirs up more people shitting up the same thread.

 

[prove_it]

Titles are all in the name of fun. Gets too serious around sometimes.

 

[mitsuturbo]

This is directed at everyone, and nobody in particular:
If you can't take some sh*t from other car guys, then the internet is probably not the place for you.

 

[Jesus_Negros]

But, I could always ask a mod to delete a post that hurts my feelings. Or they could delete it before my feelings get a chance to get hurt. The Internet, it hurts. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bawling.gif

I think most people on this forum can take the sh*t. We all know Mike can. He's no GVR4Kauai.

 

[jnava]

That is a hilarious juan.
