Welcome! Did you buy this car from Bradford? I'm pretty sure I saw it there a few years back, numberplate looks familiar

Maybe ;) Need to get him out of his Civics haha

£1500, my friend is still planning to buy it pending an offer he's made

Check the build threads

GLWS

Cheers for the help everyone! Drove really quite nicely but it turns out it was indeed head gasket! Took it for a drive for about 10 mins, returned back to his house to find this..

Iddy and Grant have some lovely bays

Sounds good! Looking forward to seeing it progress, get a build thread up in the members rides section

Check inlet and tb gaskets, and also any vacuum hoses for splits

Cool thanks guys! I'll speak to my mate in a bit as we were gonna go down tonight! Any idea of how much a head gasket job would set you back? And a replacement head if required?

Welcome! Believe I have seen your fiesta on FB somewhere, similar plans for the Starlet?

Hey guys, So I'm going with a mate tomorrow to go look at an EP and the seller says that it's using water but it's driving fine. What could be the potential causes and the cost of repair? I'm guessing there may be a split rad pipe or a leaky rad but these would be obvious to spot? Maybe head gasket or a crack in the head around the exhaust mani studs? Somebody has also mentioned it may have something to do with the thermostat? I don't believe the car has been compression tested.. Thanks Amjad

Stunning example of a GT! Welcome!

Plate is awesome! I missed the post where you may have mentioned the backlit bit, any info on it?

If I was closer I would definitely have come, I hope they round up a good number of people and cars for him!

This is what it should look like clean lol

^agreed with both of the above

A few horror stories have been told but I don't really understand how they work lol

Need to ditch NA power and get mine on the road by the sounds haha

This ;) Nice pics!

MX3, my Dad has one but never let me drive it. Don't think I could handle the raw power at 18 lol

Yeah I went down last year and left after 5 mins having seen that sheds that were there lol

It's the one I showed you when we were doing the clutch, I'll try to get some pics tomorrow Don't suppose you need the system? It just needs some welding on the pipe leading up to it nothing major I don't think

Best I got out of the GT was 250km to indicated half tank. Not great because I think the rear calipers are sticking
