    Head into your local Supercheap and buy Green Nulon coolant.

    Your car should be that same as mine which means your need a total of 7.5L total fluid in the radiator so what you wanna do is have a 1:2 mixing ratio..

    In simple terms for every Litre of coolant add 2 Litres of water/ Add 2.5L of coolant concentrate and 5L of water

     

    In terms of a flush, all i used was the 10 minute flush by Rislone because the water was all brown and gross. Real good stuff and gets rid of all the crap.

    With this you add all of it in and top it up with just water and wait till you are at operating temperature, while its warming up give your heater hoses a bit of a squeeze just so you get the rust and dried crap off the inside of your hoses

     

    Once its running nice and you have squeezed as much as you can then turn the motor off, Wait a few minutes, open your radiator cap SLOWLY then let it drain out. Once its finished add the coolant in and top it up with water, once it has reached the top leave the radiator cap off, start the car and bleed the coolant of all air, once thats sorted then chuck the cap back on and you are sorted. What i usually do is take it for a little drive with a bottle of water in the back just incase. Thats pretty much the jist of it anyway.

     

    Any other questions feel free to ask :)

    I managed to pick up a set of 3-Way Adjustable Cusco coilovers from a member in auckland a few years back. Had to get the rears rebuilt as the bearings were seized but it was well worth it in the end. Comfort is thrown out the window but if you want the best cornering setup i would 100% go for some adjustables. Mine isnt slammed on its ass but its a nice height so you will overcome your issue of your driveway
