Today: I replaced the Cap to the radiator as it was spewing. $8 fix
Tomorrow is spring break and I got my taxes back.... Sooooo,
Invidia Gemini Exhaust will be bolted on as well as the rear suspension getting an update.
Putting the suspension back to OEM as the car has 123000 miles on it as an '03.
Upper, lower control arms; end links, bushings, etc... all new. Tell you how it goes in a couple days. So excited.

Also need to replace the AC Belt tomorrow. should be fun.

lol finally pulled the trigger on some morel elate sw6s. they came in and since they were used i decided to hook it up and test them out to make sure they are good. lol one thing led to another and i went ahead and finished installing my passenger door card. hahah its been a year already. with the mirror mods and sound deadening it took me forever. these speakers sound AMAZING. so clean and rich mid bass. wayyyyy better than the focal ps165s i was using before

Cracked my radiator and blew the heater hose bought a mizu radiator which I do not recommend to anyone who cares about quality the welds look like ***, the fitment is decent if you take out the rubber feet and force it in the fan lower mounting tabs did not fit because for some reason one side has a half inch gap (perfect to fit the tab) and the other is only 1/8 wtf it's like they gave up cutting. the radiator cap fitting is crooked leaning towards the engine not flat like stock and there's grind marks next to it poor excuse of workmanship I may just dump this one on Craigslist later and buy a mishimoto or koyo or an arc if I could find the money lol the welds on my mishimoto overflow are 100 times better. I don't care too much about fitment as long as it can be made to fit I can work with that but I can't be cutting up a radiator to fix weld this is ridiculous smh

Koyo is your best choice. Mishimoto has some fitment issues and arc is gonna cost you about $3m

Got a little done today. Tint, hardwire kits installed for both the dashcam and the radar detector. Also got some bulbs replaced. Got some 5000k h4s for the fog/high beam and did a rear marker blinker mod as well as replaced the puddle lights with some blue cob mini led panels. These things are bright. Changed the trunk light to a 5smd 194 led for visibility and put another cob beside it. Perfect light with a blue tint. Replaced the map lights with white led mini panels. Almost too dadgum bright and changed the city light to an amber bulb. I think it flows better with the turn and front marker.
Next on the to do list is some Z springs and some 20/25 spacers. Also looking into having the Rays powdercoated. Previous owner rattle canned the rims and they are needing some attention.
Still a ways to go..lol

Changed my city lights to LEDs, I was tired of the yellow looking light with my white corners and headlight. Love how clean it looks now.
