Replaced the radiator fan on the drivers side. The old one only worked at the high setting so I could have just soldered in a new resistor, but the whole fan assembly was only ~$30 more than just the resistor so I figured why not. Didn't want the cooling of the engine to depend on my mediocre at best soldering skills.

Went ahead and removed the bumper and cleaned the radiators.
Before and after of the radiators and the AC condensers.

Quite a bit of crap, dirt, buildup that was removed and found drivers fan not working on low.
Time to troubleshoot that tomorrow. May also do an oil change and swap the fuel filter while it's up in the air.

Probably the resistor - there are some good threads on replacement if you don't want to spend crazy $ on a $5 resistor... good luck

Finally got the chance to put a few miles on after our winter.

Re 'Springed' with H&R. Noticed rear was sitting lowere than last year. Apparently po had a coupe set installed instead of cabrio/targa.🙃

New Gt3 wheels w/MPSC2's.

Momo wheel installed. Have to figure out why my blinkers aren't cancelling...annoying.

Ergonomics of new steering wheel and suspension/tire combo transformed driving experience. Cup lip spoiler noticeable at speed too.😎

Car looks fantastic. Glad to hear all of that, can you post some pictures of the lip spoiler as well, please?

First shake down drive of the year! Short, but damn it felt good.

Topped the tank with no-ethanol and washed the Georgia pollen off to get ready for my first Peachstate PCA tour tomorrow.

What octane is your non E in Georgia?

Just had a few minutes before some family activities...
Good news: Successfully installed the 15mm rear spacers, 8mm front spacers. Rears are great, maybe more wide needed in front.
Bad news: Looks to be a coolant leak (pics attached). Resevoir in engine bay is visibly empty. Based on my mechanical abilities, I think there are 2 options:
Option 1: Get it towed to my trusty Indy
Option 2: Fill the coolant back up and drive to my trusty Indy
Please let me know your opinion. Thanks!

Thanks, that front lip spoiler looks perfect. I need to install mine pronto!

Quick jack works great. Did an oil change and made minor adjustment with my ride hide. Little disappointing that I only put 2k miles from my last oil change but it has been 7 months and it’s starting to warm up here LV, NV so went ahead and changed the oil anyways. All looks good! Took her for a quick shakedown and she runs like a dream!!!
