    Struts and shocks haven't come yet , I honestly went against buying a 1k$ set of coils in favor of standard stuff . For one I don't track like you guys just spirited driving and for the drop in and go ability I figured It would be easier

    So I tackled the water pump today. Really surprising easy . I would equate it to a old small block Ford water pump . Only nuance is the rad does not have a pet cock . Also managed to track down my oil leak , which is coming from the vanos solenoids . Had done valve cover earlier this year thinking that was it .
    So new water pump , t stat, clutch fan and pentosin coolant . Only two fluids that have not been changed on the car now are brake ( soon rbf600) and power steering .
    Also found a slightly loose inner tie rod .... Never ends.
    My rear shocks have shown up but not the new top mounts . The new struts have not shipped yet so that stuff will most likely get pushed off till winter so I can enjoy the car a bit before .

    Yes rancho shocks ! Long story short but they perform on par if not better than Bilstein adjustables at 1/4 the price and have more piston area . The shocks are actually "for " a Toyota Tacoma .
    On a side not I have been hand laying sticker bomb to my bicycle as I get them

    The Vanos solenoids like to leak as well as the oil filter housing gaskets. Thank god they are on top where they are easy to change.
