well my cars been running cold/cool since i got it. my friend (whom i bought it off) said it was the CAI/efficient cooling system, so i kept everything as is. i continually got 400kms with a bit to go from my dc2r which is pretty damn good.
TWO YEARS LATER lol...
i had another dc2r friend tell me he changed his thermostat and now the temp needle, within 5 mins of warmup is a bracket under 1/2 way.
i have NEVER had the car at that temp even after prolonged periods of driving in winter.
so i got it changed tonight and what do u know, half way within 5 minutes fockers. i'm yet to do a fuel test, but i'm sure it will improve.
pictures are of a stuck open thermostat. Notice the gap between the rubber and metal plate.
