See the link to intake manifold, one of my mates believes that intake is stuffed and no matter what gasket I put on there , it won't stop the water as there is not enough meat left on there. https://ibb.co/jVFYby I think is right. Your thoughts? |

How is the casting so deformed? Might be time for Galant MPI |

Who the hell knows mate, I got the car like that. Even the wiring is a complete mess, it runs but wires are everywhere. They got that aftermarket hornet central locking system on the car ( it doesn't work) but the amount of wires used to connect it, it's a joke. The only reason I found this out is when replacing the fuel lines, I had to take off the planum to get to injector clamps. It's good that we noticed it now, engine is most likely ok. I have a spare dash engine with original intake ECI , I will use that going forward. |

Which model of Galant model would you recommend? Will it fit the dash engine? Andrew, keep that spare intake for me, I will be in Adelaide around xmas. |

Took off the wipers and all the plastic bits around them. Last night cleaned them up and got them ready for paint.

The other option for that intake manifold is to by pass the coolant line that goes into the intake. I understand the only reason the coolant was designed to go through there is to warm it up in colder climate. That way I can still use the intake, it's worth a shot. |

Over the weekend managed to pick this up. Complete 1.8 Top end . Turbo is Tc06, it's been high flowed, head has been rebuild with an aftermarket cam , exhaust manifold is mint, no cracks. At the moment I won't need this but it is a good idea to put it away when I decide to build a nice 1.8.

It also came with this custom made air filter, there is an airflow meter inside it.

POR15? |

Yes. Por15 and Sw-2 on the top. You can drop the car in the Atlantic ocean, it wouldn't rust |

Anyone know where I can buy a new side engine mount? Rear spoiler is all done and ready to go back on.

Didn’t have much time last week to work on it. I bought this yesterday for parts. It is rough. Top of the engine is missing and the block has a hole on the side. There are plenty of parts on it that I will need and what I don’t need I will put it away. This car has a sunroof which I believe is not very common to see. Vin states AB . It comes with power windows , power steering and air con. Suspension looks all new , with pedders springs, new bushings and new engine mounts ( which I need) etc Tyres almost new. Brakes look bigger too and they are in much better condition than what I have on mine. It also Comes with full exhaust and an intercooler. The funny thing is that I used to see this car back in 2003 in Ferntree Gully, always parked outside the Village green. The guys must have worked there, same old two tone blue and silver.
