Wow another failure? I really hope the newer GT2 fixes this. What was the failure this time?

I know partner it’s a real shame.

Great stuff.....even if I am afraid that HKS SC fluid seems to be more similar to air conditioning system fluid.

Fair enough. If I remember right, you've gotta do some cutting for the alternator bracket and radiator shroud so yeah, I wouldn't wanna mess that up.

Et808, purchased from. Good deal, any wiggle room from 3800.00?
