What have you done to your MSP today?

Okay, so I've got a full width Protege5 radiator in the car... Without me walking my lazy ass out there and measuring the core, can someone tell whether I should go with 10" or 12" fans... I know the core size (12.75x27.25) but I just don't want a 12" fan to not seat correctly. Or should I keep the factory radiator fan, and use a mishimoto condensor fan?

I have 10s with lots of room with my mishimoto. 12s work. The stock msp fans arent that great. You can get way more CFMs with slims than what the stockers push.

I guess I'll order 12" fans then...

since I'm taking off my lower tie bar and selling it I thought I could easily take off my 4 point ladder bar and sell it too. Of course nothing can be that easy and one of the bolts is blocked by the ladder bar after it hit something and bent (see below). My question is since even though it's still 100% functional could I sell it for enough money to make it worth taking it off or just leave it on?

 

[2.0t03speed]

how much you want for that tie bar?

 

[o0n8]

tie bar is sold already, I should've worded that a little better

installed all new couplers and t-bolt clamps, installed a full size radiator with 12' slim fans, and a 170 thermostat. Had to geto rig the coolant over flow because it was to late to get a longer hose for it. Will be fixing that tomorrow.

Threw some spacers on the front yesterday. Car looks much better. Back will need spacers as well I think.

I know how to do the ribbon fix I don't need that...... What I need is the short foot long harness that plugs into the back of the radio.

what is your budget? want ride quality? A good set for its price is Fortune Auto. Thats what I am running now and the ride is not to bad for coils. Ksports are to stiff usually.

 

[VIPMSP]

hmm thats what i was lookin at, heard too many bad things about the ksports. whats the cheapest i can find them for? they're $1150 on ebay..
