    Mga tsikoteers, i'm planning to buy a carbon fiber hood for my Galant VR 96 as a part of weight reduction plans para mejo tumipid sa gas (kahit mga 1% lang ). What do you think guys? Any info kung saan or magkano magiging damage? Any suggestion will be appreciated

    ung pag tipid lang ba talaga sa gas ung reason? kung un lang baka matagal mo pa mabawi ung pinambili mo ng CF hood. nasa 10k pataas pa ata ung mga CF hood eh.

    very minimal lang ang gas consumption reduction ng carbon fibre hood.

    it would be easier and much cheaper to unload unnecessary stuff in your trunk and inside the cabin.

    walang ready made CF hood pang 7G galant. nagtanong na kami ng mga katropa ko, aabot daw ng 17k kung magpapasadya ka. kelangan pa nila ng molde so you'll have to give up your stock hood.

    Even if you strip out the rear seats, spare tire you will still have mileage problems.

    A'96 VR aint exactly a miser, the engine screams vroooom!

    Is your Galant an automatic?
