I run 17s on my EK3 Hatch lowered with Tein S-Tech springs, its good enough for me

SurGTR

I had those Dunlops Direzza previously, no grip wet or dry, was spinning tyres like crazy, in my Civic Hatch Non VTEC Automatic, 205/40/17, My last 2 set of Tyres were Dunlops (the DZ101s and I believe the set before that were the SP9000s) , say what you want but im on NEXENS N3000 of same specs now...

SurGTR

Well I have a EK3 hatch Civic lowered with Tein S-Techs and stock shocks, its on 17" Arospeed RS-GTs, and i have no problem with the ride quality, and the suspension parts hold out pretty well, so i guess coming from that I shouldn't complain much if I do the same with a Galant right? :mrgreen:...

SurGTR

Is the E-throttle the one that gives the problem with the magnets? converting from 4G63 to 4G93/94 I assume the transmission, harness and ECU must be changed>?

SurGTR

I see the 4G63 2.0 SOHC Fuel Injected (from the local Galants) and Rated at 136 HP
The 4G93 1.8 DOHC GDI is rated at 138 HP
And the 4G94 2.0 DOHC GDI is rated at 143HP
which is the common one found in the bamboo? the 4G93 GDI?

SurGTR

Dazz a real high maintenance girl there boy, I hope she does give the kinda performance that worth the money spent to keep her happy

SurGTR

I'm all for taking care of an engine, but should an engine be babied as much as the GDIs? As Sensitive as they are. Also these engines will be bought used, how would one know how the previous (Japanese) owner treated it? (taking their need for pampering into account)

A video I found that might help

I finding little info on the Local 2.0 SOHC 4G63 Fuel Injected engine on the net, but choices look limited to me with Galant engines, atleast feasible choices that are 2.0 to push that heavy car thats not a GDI, or V6 engine Believe me if you put in the sohc 4g63 that came in the local galant you'l...

SurGTR

^^
It happens lol

and nice link boy rollingstock

SurGTR

I know the Super Saloon came with 14s dunno bout the V6.

SurGTR

hmm i dunno still torn between 17s and 18s after im reading so many site about rim weight, how much it affects the performance of a car

SurGTR

I'm running 18's on my Galant (dimensions escape me at the moment) previously ran a 17 inch rim. Without a drop the wheel gap on the 17's was atrocious. People constantly asked if i was running 15's. Decided to step up to 18's because every wheel shop i went to advised that 20's would put too much ...

SurGTR

Haha nah crazy Galant is 4 Hole, 4x114 I believe, so anyone have input on the questions?

SurGTR

What rim size do u suggest to put on a "Shark Mouth" Galant that's not lowered (will eventually) 17" or 18" and what tyre size n width combo to go along with it? :| Also whats the price difference of the tyres for 18s compared to the 17s and how easy are the tyres to obtain? oh a...
