Replacing radiator... what else??
Going to replace the old Fatally broken radiator this weekend. Any thoughts on what else I should be replacing while I have it out? The water pump and belts have all been replaced within 15K miles. No sense in wasting all that open space.
Also going to be installing the Platinum 1 peice driveshaft next week. Any old threads out there that give me some helpful hints (ie: exhaust getting in the way).
Still having a major knocking sound when braking hard... it's really disheartning. If it truly is just the ABS Actuator I guess I have to live with it, but sheeesh it's annoying. I am almost tempted to remove the slotted rotors and Hawk pads and go back to stock.

coolant temp sensor probably while you are there, are you replacing it with the stock radiator? If you are in the hot *** climate such as Texas you might think about an oil cooler and an upgraded radiator, the oil cooler is next on my list.

And if your brakes are clunking, I'd recommend researching the kingpin. It's a pin in the front suspension that can cause that when it wears out (my last 300ZX had that problem). Check that out before spending $$$$$ on fixing other things.
