Dealing w/ a broken AC condenser.

Thought it'd be an easy job .... my entire front bumper/front hood/front headlights are sitting on the ground and I still haven't gotten to the radiator/condenser yet lol ... Fucking american cars :facepalm: Plus side, nows a good time to install my HID relay :fullofwin:

replaced the coolant temp sensor on the loyale, now she idles on her own :)

curbed my rear passenger wheel (work emotion cr kai)... :fuuuuu:

Made a paste of Baking Soda and Lemon Juice, I read on another forum that its great to remove surface rust off polished exhausts! It works GREAT!!!

Once I change the rotors and pads it will get rid of the tiny bit of overspray. Can't wait!

Baking soda and lemon juice?! That's amazing!

Spent the whole long weekend working in the MR2. No work, so a lot of time was devoted to getting the car ready for paint.

Spoiler!

Weekend well spent! Need to extend a massive thanks to Santofu, Paradise240, entrax, jtrinh and mb_ for coming by and helping. Seriously, even though you guys had some side projects of your own, it really helped get this car done quick. :fullofwin:

thanks for the tip nabs!
