haha yeh man, when it comes to the car i dont mess around
And yes it feels so much better, i only wish i did it sooner. I cringe at the thought of me revving it out when it was "cold"
But its all good now, I finally feel like a Vti-R owner
-
That is exactly how i felt. I thought to myself "damn i've been driving it and gunning it with a cold engine, i hope i didnt do any damage", but now i feel very relieved that i have fixed it. It feels complete again

All you Vtir teg owner who have had his problem must stop to apriciate the quality of your honda, yes your 10 yr old thermostat shat itself but it has in a way that it dindt overheat your engine. 90% of honda thermostats iv ever seen seize or become faulty have done so in the open state thus allowing coolant to flow, most other manufacture and non genuine thermostate seize in the closed state which = no coolant flow and an overheating engine which = posible engine damage. thats why I love genuine Honda thermostats, there worth every penny IMO.

haha dont get us wrong ECU man, we're not complaining. We just felt bad about thrashing the car when it was cold
Im glad it ran too cold rather than too hot, because you're right it would have been ALOT worse.

Looks like this is a common problem. When I was at Hanny's last weekend there was another DC2 which had the exact same problem

hey ive got a dc2r, and i just got it about 2 weeks ago, my engine temp is sitting around the 40% mark, just below the middle. should i worry about it? or is that normal?? because i believe few people have this problem?? the car drives good but just for assurance. someone said that is normal in the 1st page of this thread so im just double checking.
thanks

Yeah sitting at about 40% is normal. its when it doesnt reach 40% or exceeds 40% when you gotta start to worry
-
Yep, I agree, about 3/8ths, just under halfway, on my DC2R.. It is very consistent on that reading too.. Cheers..
