What brand? It does look nice. I've been eyeing a Mishimoto rad lately, but I don't need it yet.

this radiator is actually a eBay replica of the popular koyo R2218 which is a direct and perfect fit for my swapped EJ20G impreza! A real koyo is $300 so yeah for the money I paid this thing is high quality. The worst that could happen is the radiator leak which is a easy fix.

Right on! Definitely keep us posted. I'm very curious to see how they come out. I've wanted to retro fit a pair for my car too, but the fluted lenses have discouraged me.

So I went ahead and got yet another Subaru...

Pretty nasty rear lh quarter panel damage. 4eat. running on 3 cylinders right now, may also have a lights knock. I'm gonna grab a set of injectors and a coil from the wrecking yard this week. Hopefully the 2.5 is sill good, I'm wanting a break from motor work lol.

Getting back to working on my T-belt replacement. Here's the block and pump surfaces all cleaned up. Also, I planned on checking the screws, and loctite-ing them securely when I replaced the o-ring. Glad I checked. :shock:

Finished them, with one minor setback. PO replaced the driver side headlight with something aftermarket ( I couldn't tell ) and it melted in pretty bad. Next time I'll make sure it says subaru in the lens. Going to the junkyard to get another one and swap lenses.

Image

I will need to angle them down a ways too.

Overall for under $60 I am happy with them

They're a lot clearer than you think.
I spent time to wet sand , use brush on rubbing compound then buffed them.

Oh for real?
I was just saying if they were 100% clear it would be that much more sharp and crystal light. They are a 100% difference from stock tho. They look good man. Good job. I'm planning on doing the morimoto mini h1's.

The actual projector lens needs to be cleaned just took them apart.

So I've put racks on.
Got a forester fog switch to wire to my new 1250 lumen led bricks.
Also got a vw/audi over battery fuse box I am using as a distribution box so there is not so many wires on my terminal.
Bought new calipers and pads and slotted rotors. annnd Did a detail for a new bad ass sub and good amp.
Gonna find out here in a few minutes after dinner if any of my ideas worked. .

The box has three small fused power wires.
I used those for all my lights. the other main connections I used for the fuse box,starter, amp, and power inverter.

And hopefully I can get the forester switch to turn on and off my new fogs.

I like the look of your car in that picture. Perfect height / stance. That is a nice distribution box. What model VW/AUDI would that come out of?

Thanks guys. It's been a lot of work to get it here.
And I believe it was a 2001 jetta or gti. the popular one.
It needed some modding to fit the subaru wire connections. I'm relieved that everything works great.i figured there would be some BS hang up. the forester switch needed some wire testing but got it figured out..
