  4. Rob i love you , i had a wiring nightmare to deal with my rear lights, rear fog, speedo and rev were not working i sorted them out, and all i had to do today was fix my indicators, and all day i struggled to find what was wrong, and all it was was because i never had the hazard plugged in when working on it lol Thank you mate Colin

  10. thats why i put this up as i was seriously considering using the old one as its mint nothing wrong with it but wasn't sure if it would come out again or not was gonna put some silicone sealer on it if i was gonna use it, but i've ordered a new one from toyota now anyway so i'll wait for that but cheers rob .
  11. Cheers mate was what i thought, as for the nick of it its in good condition but as said for peace of mind i think i'll get a new one .
  12. Right guys was finishing up the gt after the fucking water pump had frozen causing the alternator belt to snap. so i've sorted that out and fitted new belt etc and was putting the anti freeze in and after a bit i just heard it all running back out again was like shit so went under to see where it was leaking check to see if the water pump was sealed properly its fine noticed that the antifreeze seemed to be coming out from behind the cam belt cover so got it off to notice that with the water pump and the block being frozen it popped the core plug out there (very fucking lucky that was all

  18. Well Done mate i have to be honest mate i never used to like your car as i always thought the livesports kit on the v was horrible but with those auto x's on it i'm guessing one of geo's sets of coillies strangely really has made a difference, in that pic it looks stunning. so for the fact that pic has converted me then its defo potm for me. you got a build thread on here i had a quick scan y/day never saw it if so link me as i'm interested as to whats been done Again mate congrats
  19. Travis pastrana's new years eve jump in a subaru 250ft lol
  20. i've a couple on mine i have 2x built not bought on my rear side windows a jdm as fuck one on the bonnet above the drivers headlight i'm thinking of a sti pacman eater i like them and it will wind my brother up as he used to have a gc8 scoobie and he knows (will never admit though) that my gt would shit all over it . An i have a trd sticker that was on the car when i bought it that i like so kept although i have nothing trd on the car lol but a good spec list to make up for instead lol also when i bought the car someone who previously had the car had a MUGEN sticker on the back i know shoc
  21. the water pump runs off the alternator and crank pulley . its just below the inlet next to cam cover.
  22. pull the thermostat out throw it in a cup of hot water see if it opens up. Also give the coolant temp sensor a look over is the temp gauge rising at all ? check the motor on the fan could be the motor has gone just run a feed direct from the battery to check that its ok.
  23. no its ok, can't see how your boss's would've done that damage without him running it (think he's telling you fibs lol) as thats the point in core plugs when if theres no anti-freeze in the system as you said it freezes and expands pushing out the core plugs if it needs to to expand. but i've pulled the water pump and hoses off and unfroze them just need to wait and thaw it out, as if i chance running hot water through it that could crack the head and block, so i've got an even further wait now.
  24. no was only running 2 secs
  25. Dont get me started about the weather my gt is in the garage its ready for its mot but can't take it as the block is forzen water pump was frozen solid snapping the alternator belt and the thermostat was just a block of ice i now have to wait on the fucking thing thawing out which could take a long time with the current weather, and to be honest with yous i'm getting pissed off with the thing spent a fortune on it in the past 2 years i'm getting very close to getting it on road and selling it. colin.
