Well... I finally have the time and money to fix up my FD. I've been having a coolant leak for a while and I haven't been able to get to it since I just drive my saturn all the time to save gas. I attempted to sell, but failed miserably with the coolant leak and unpainted c-west bumper without the turn signals (LOL, yes i'm a bum), i guess the buyers just backoff after I tell them that there's a tiny pinhole leak somewhere.

I'm about 90% sure it's the turbo lines, I smell no coolant at all coming from the exhaust, and I can drive for about 30-60 minutes straight before the coolant buzzer goes off, I don't see any visible coolant coming from the bottom of the car other then the overflow bottle which spills about half a cup of water on cool down. I see steam/smoke coming from the turbo areas every now and then. All hoses are stock with 86,000 miles on it. I'm pretty sure it doesn't need a rebuild.

My FD is an Auto yeah . Anywho, i bought the car with a cracked radiator endtank and a sliced vacuum line (2nd turbo wouldn't boost) for $9000. I fixed that up and the car worked flawlessly for 7 months. After those 7 months, the coolant buzzer started to go off, this time there was no visible leak.

I just bought all the water hoses off mazdatrix (http://www.mazdatrix.com/bhose3.htm)

The water pump off of rx7.com and an OE thermostat.

Anything else I should buy? i'm thinking of using Evan's coolant this time.

You're gonna be hard pressed to find a buyer for an auto FD, with an unpainted bodykit and an engine that may have been overheated. Best bet is to take it to a rotary shop and have them do a bumper to bumper check, compression check the engine and make sure the engine isn't consuming coolant. Good luck.
