i guess i will eventually fix the oil cooler and radiator hoses, i have em all.

also bought new tires and spark plugs.
 
Back suspension swapped but fuck me this thing goes through front konis like a high schooler goes through vapes. Over 200 each corner, more economical to buy a coilover. I stiffened up the rear shocks and I’m going to run the stocks stuff up front again. I’m done.

finally addressed the oil leak. Wish I could do the radiator hoses at the same time because a gallon of coolant came out. They are tough to find the set I ordered from a retailer online hasn’t even sent any correspondence or taken my call in the last week.
Anyways the hoses are the real PITA here, having a longer angled needle nose plier would work best for them. The nut is 30mm torqued to 41lbft and some loctite.

Well still leaking fluid I happened to be all over the car checking everything and found this fantastic bullshit. I ordered new oem lines for under 200 shipped they go from the lower firewall to each wheel/soft line. This was at the rear aero panel by the gas tank. Ugh all 3 of my Korean cars now have rotted rear brake hard lines. So much crap on this panel too safe to say it isn’t going back on. I will probably break most of the bolts and clips anyways.
