As ever, fantastic car.

You need to keep an eye on your radiator though..when they go brown like that it means that they are nearing the end of their life, it may well last for years, but still worth keeping an eye on for cracks etc.

again.....lovin the car.

man your car has allways been super clean! where did you get that header?

[QuintinGT]

Lookin' good! How long have you had them on and are they still shiny? I've heard that they change color after awhile because of the heat.

Yes they are still shiny for now. they started out chrome and I only drove it about 10 mins coming home and now they are gold. they arent going to look real good in a couple weeks but Ill have my header wrap by then so I dont really care.

Thanks for the heads up. i was kinda wondering why it was brown. ill keep checking it. Are the koyo aluminum radiators on ebay any good?

Thanks, Im trying my best I brought the header from kcizzle, a member

Koyo radiators are pretty much the best you can get..one day I`ll fit a Koyo to mine when I can afford one, expect to pay quite alot of money for one, but they are worth every penny/cent, but you`ll never need to buy another one baring any unforseen events.

here's where I got my koyo:

it was the cheapest I could find, but they had had it on sale for only $300. to be honest, I noticed no difference, the engine still gets just as hot, maybe it cools down a little faster after being driven, but that's about it...

[DSToyo]

iirc, when your radiator gets to be more of a yellowish color, it will need to be replaced soon. somewhat like this.
*sorry netrata for jacking your pic

Actually I did do something, I cut a piece of clear plexi-glass and glued it into the place where the tinted piece of plastic is. them I used a purple notebook divider to turn the green clock light white. you can used what ever color you want.

Newest addition



Red turns
Red needles
Reverse Glow Guages


they glow both green and blue.

if you noticed, i decided to not put in the triangular corner pieces in. I liked the look of just the three circles. I found a good use for them though can you spot it?

Finally new KYB struts, Ive been bouncing around on the old ones way too long. I got to put in my new ST sway bars too. cant wait to go take some corners way too fast

[goferris]

your car looks sweet. you need to get your skirts and splitters back on though. other than that looks really good

[jason]

mr car handles great around corners, but arent gt sway bars thicker/stiffer than st's?? could be wrong but thats what i always thought

[QuintinGT]

ST = Suspension Techniques

[brianforster]

i liked the other gauges the best, but other than that you seem to have an intense passion for your car and are always tinkering with something and for that i respect you

good looking car, cant wait to see more
