Things Currently Broken on your Evo

These threads were VERY VERY popular back on my old DSM boards and it seems to have the same effect on the Evo.
  1. CONSTANT CEL ever since it got cold, something to do with the idle which is kinda high.
  2. Fog lights blown, I need those HID look replacements if someone could help me out real quick.
  3. My A/C compressor is SHOT, done, making a lot of noise and It needs to be replaced, a LOT of noise, anyone have a compressor for an 03 for me?
  4. My wing is getting repainted as well, faded to HELL and shipping.
Oddly enough my car DRIVES great, it is fast just a sh1tty idle and needs a retune.


Thanks guys.

P.S. I REALLY REALLY REALLY need an A/C compressor if you guys have one.

mine has 35k on it and has no mechanical problems, could use a good tune soon since i have been adding parts to it, and the speedo is off a few mph, but my parts dept ordered me a new one under warrenty
appearance is where she needs love, the front lip is gone, so i bought the IX front bumper, and black paint is shot.

That would be what's left of the #2 connecting rod still connected to the Crank Journal. The hole in the pan is from the top half of the connecting rod which made it's way into the pan with the wrist-pin attached and a whole bunch of pieces of piston.
