i put almost every thing new on it new water pump, timing belt, thermostat, i took the manuel fan off and put fal fans on it, new hoses just about every thing i can think of i replaced, but i noticed that when it overheated the first time the top rad. hose was hard as a rock almost so i took it out and cut the center out of it so it would still have some restrictions but then it took it about an hour before it overheated,,, i really don't know much about these cars lol.

i am freaking confused, and nobody around where i live really knows much about turbo charged imports,,,,
