I put a hole in my radiator! Sometime during all the work I was doing, I hit the radiator and put a tiny hole in it... and I mean tiny! I'm not too mad though. I could smell coolant after a drive but could never find a leak. So it was probably going out anyways. 70k miles and 14 years of use.... time to figure out what to replace it with now....

Also changed the oil.

Parted with the Forward Facing and went with standard placement, missing things but was able to bolt kit up!

Looks good. Are you going to run turboguard or an intake?

I'm pretty sure there's one for sale in the marketplace right now...

EDIT: ^ Beat me to it. Guess that's what I get for paying attention

Ya so I didnt see that ad and got this instead. As expected, its fitment is, well, it should hopefully work. No leaks at least.

Man I am on a spree of breaking things.... I at least found a replacement shaft and knob on Ebay. Also gives me an excuse to replace the control cable I have had sitting on my shelf for over a year. Already put in the updated gears.

Got my compressor housing powder coated and had the center section polished. Also got the last piece I needed to reassemble my transmission.

I realigned the front bumper and replaced all those pesky plastic clips for the lip/undertray with metal threaded clips and bolts. I have a special hatred for plastic clips and I'm noticing Mitsubishi went crazy with them on the Evo's. Next on the list is TB seals.

How's the fitment on that? I actually just ordered one of these myself and waiting for it to come in.
