Re: Res' 6a12m coupe
yeh real happy with how it sits, just need to roll the guards at the rear a fair bit and the fronts a smidge more and it'll be great
unfortunately havent had time to work on the motor fixing bugs, its overheating again now which is no fun
basically its ISC, overheating and speedo that need to be done still, need to find motivation

Re: Res' 6a12m coupe
Im happy to help you with it mate, usually free weekends and some afternoons.
Both overheating issues I have had have been a problem with sensors so I would start there. Unless you are running the standard lancer radiator which might be smaller, hard to tell without knowing the setup.
My first bit of advice would be getting new coolant temp sensors for the ECU side and the gauge cluster side. That is assuming your fans and stuff are working and your radiator is up to scratch.
You're on your own with the rest, I hate wiring with a passion

Re: Res' 6a12m coupe
sensor works fine, its showing temps as they are in real life
radiator is a huge 3 core evo so its overkill cos even the stock lancer one is fine for 6a12
and fans are wired in to run all the time when motor is on so its not that they are not kicking in.
waiting for it to cool down a bit then going to take the thermostat out to test it in some boiling water, but other than that im pretty stumped
i hope its not a HG and i dont think so as its not blowing any smoke and there has been no running issues....
