I read the reviews on the Mishimoto and tried to get one, but they don't make a radiator for an automatic. If anyone knows where I can get an aftermarket radiator for an automatic, please let me know; otherwise I'm going to get an oem one.

Which shop and how much do you think it will cost?

I want to get my radiator replaced before I tackle the dynomat and sound barrier so it will be a couple of weeks. The MR2 is a third car, so it's not a high priority to get fixed right now. I don't have the time to take it to the shop during the week either, so right now it just sits there.

I'm gonna venture to say it'll probably run around $150 for the sound barrier materials...but I'm not sure. I'll call them after lunch and see if they'll give me a quote...

The best idea would be to Dynomat then add the sound barrier material on top of it. I'll do more research...but this is what I've been doing with my car so at least you know yours won't be the guinea pig...

mmmm weird thing. i'm feeling bumps from my right front wheel... possible reasons. i hit a curb a while ago.also just last weekend i skid about 25 ft or so due to a person who felt like staying perpendicular in my lane trying to cross to the other road. while i was about 35 ft away.... there seems to be rubber build up. as a result of it.

mmm which one is it o.0

Hum...if your wheel isn't noticeably damaged then I'd venture to say it's the tire...
