:withstupi It probably started out as a bad T-stat, normal maintenance would have possibly saved you, now more than likely you have a lot of work to do....

Very tempting, if it wasn't a 2" cowl. OP: Zankoku Performance, an on site vendor carries one, but as far as I know, no one has fitted one yet. I asked about a return policy and have not heard back (this was over a month ago).

Haha thats just nasty... But yeah, why change out the rear-end? If it is in question, have it rebuilt, they are not weak. Or maybe you are nuts and have a ton of money like Ian....:icon_razz

Just make sure when you have the block decked, to have them bolt the rear timing cover on and deck it along with the block (this is mandatory). Also, I would advise not using an impact driver when it comes to assembly time ;) I personally would not use one at all, even for disassembly, but...

I'm not a big fan of the lettering, but I may try and pick up a set and see what I think. I also have not seen a good pic of the N/A covers by themselves. Edit: Found a pic, the N/As have an indentation also, it's just further back.

Thanks Chris So I have 1-yay and 1-nay......What bugs me a little are the covers....still not sure if I like them or not. I do think it cleans it up better, but also has a cheap look to it :dunno:

Thanks Chris, yeah I have seen that thread (need to read more of it) But the stock coils fit fine. So I don't see the need for the is300 coils, but I do need to read more of that thread... Also I edited the post with pics without using the flash, on a shiny engine it is hard to get good...

Justin, Thanks! C-T, Yeah I'm really undecided on this one, The pics (because of the flash) look funny compared to how it looks in person. But yeah, I would love the AZP covers, I've never really liked the stockers, mainly because of that indention...

Ok so yay or nay on this one.... I'm waiting on parts, so that means free time to muck around. So I am thinking of relocating my coil packs to sit in the plug galley, and have made these covers to fit over the indention in the valve covers (the shine needs to be toned down on them a bit to...

Header panel looks great, I've seen it on a few others and have been torn on if I like it or not. But it looks fantastic on your car!

It's a Jegs aluminum duel 1" core Ford style layout radiator. More info is in my build thread, starting in the first post and more info on page 3 (read it, don't just look at the pics ;).

I would suggest ditching it and going with a quality aftermarket gauge.

Mine is not extended out, this is why I don't have a problem (see pic) ;) BTW, Duanes is way more extensive than my set-up.

I believe you are talking about the inner metal support? You would have to fab one up as no one makes an aftermarket one.

Who makes the hood you have? I searched your posts and came up with nothing....Other than Duanes limited run, I have not heard of anyone that makes one that fits properly. I am waiting on painting my car until I find one that is good, hood will be painted along with the car.

^^Exactly, for the price of a good elbow, you could have a good DP. EDIT: What I meant was a full DP that does away with a separate elbow

Caster-camber plates are pointless on the mkiii, we have double A-arm suspension holding the spindle angle in place. Plates only work on mcpherson struts, as the strut holds the angle in place. You would need adjustable A-arms in order to adjust the camber. BTW, I run caster-camber plates...

Ian: Thanks, thought I would change it up a bit to match the EGR piping ;) Ben: Thanks, I used a big fucking hammer! Haha, I cut down the two pipes where they meet and welded them together to funnel into one pipe end. Does that make any since? Think of the way two exhaust pipes would flow...

Mine is an 87. I am not running any grills next to the turn lights, and I am running the 87 turn lights. I will have to go out and look to see if I had to do anything for mounting tabs for the older style lights. EDIT: The turns are mounted to the header panel tabs, so no mods done there. Also...

That post was not pointed directly at you, it's just that this seems to pop up from time to time. And it baffles me how it makes such a stink as you can see if you look at the link- in the link, that I posted. This has to be one of the simplest mods I have done, yet it gets most of the...
