Heres another option for the 7g radiator. You can get a t-stat top off 4g63 hyundai. They have some kind of sensor there that can be removed and plugged with brass screw in cap

I got some custom decals made, but decided to install it after some 50 oz of coffee /not good idea/, now i have to order it again

2g radiators don't fit. The mounting tabs on the bottom are in the wrong spots. Galant radiators are wider by a couple inches.
We know... Me and him are trying to figure out a way to fab it to work....

If you look closely you can see I used the T-stat housing off the 2.4 engine and used the Galant radiator. It was very tight where the CAS is. I had to do some grinding on the housing to get it to fit. I also needed to run a coolant line to the turbo though so that meant some funky stuff going on on the back side where the bolt goes in. The sensor screwed into the top is for triggering my fans (the 1g ECU I'm on can't run them).
yea thats exactly what we did with mine made things a lot easier.Quote:

On a stock car you'll hear the tires squeal long before the traction breaks loose. With a big fatty bomb batty sway bar its pretty instant, one second you are hammering the turn, next second your butthole tightens up and you are trying to keep the car from being sideways in the middle of a turn. I speak from experience. Almost trashed the white car once or twice.
They are fun at low speeds though. High speeds(anything above 45, sometimes less with the right curve) they can be a bit unpredictable. Just be careful man.
i can back that up, even with my 18mm which is like 3/4 of the thick fat dicks you guys are running, it's pretty stiff back there.....i can't even imagine driving with either of your guys' rear bars
this is true, i almost wrecked mine in the winter. on second taking the turn fine the next i was sidways. as a result my drivers side of the car now sits lowerQuote:

IDK, what do you guys think? Emblem or no emblem.
I kind of wanted a smaller one but thats what i got. Old style red emblem, just dont like the chrome trimming
Emblem looks fine, I like it. Not a fan of the orange reverse lamps.
The idea was to have the entire bottom part of both tails as a giant turn signal and have the reverse lights separate somewhere lower on the bumper
OIC. Couldn't just get amber bulbs? Or were you going to put 50w 1156 bulbs in there and have it be really bright?Quote:

Dude.... Why didn't you just get an evo3 oil filter housing? You'd be in perfect shape, not to mention it's equipped with a thermostatic bipass valve.
nice to see your put the bar on...did ya powdercoat it?
Because MachV dont have them in stock and i had to wait like 3 months to come over from Japan, and i got this for 20 bucks with the cooler vs. $150 just for the housing and all fittings that need to be drilled and threaded. I have to watch my budged man, I still have to buy rods, crank, block and bearingsQuote:

Finally got new hood since the old one got damaged in the deer accident
Not feeling the Mazda rims, stick to the black ones.
lolz.....09 Lancer GTS rims bro...not mazda
Personally I like those wheels a lot more than your previous ones. But paint that hood ASAP lol
WOW
http://i1006.photobucket.com/albums/...4/HPIM0934.jpg
just now noticed you dont have door mouldings MKO... Great work man, simply awesome.
The wheels look 10x better than the other ones. In fact i think they look better on the 7g than the lancer....
Sorry, at first glance they looked similar to the rims on the Speed3.
He hasnt had door moldings for like a year.. HAHA
oooh i just noticed that too. Nice looks great without the moldings
are you running an 8g spoiler?
