cheers guys. i'm going to take it to a radiator place tomorrow and get it checked. does a reconditioned mkII radiator stand up the the 7mgte alright, or should i opt for a bigger option?

it's been pressure tested and it's fine, no leaks or anything. im currently using techalloy heavy duty green crap, but ill be switching to toyota red asap. could that make a difference?

another thing is over the past week the car has been idling funny- it would gurgle and splutter a bit, and lately has just been making a solid hearty "thump thump thump" noise at idle, and is a little rough... but as the car revs past about 1500rpm it's fine. the engine itself, when the exhaust is burbling or whatnot is still smooth and calm. (its a full 3" exhaust)... and it only seems to do it when it warms up. ive heard this could be a sign of a blown headgasket, but the mechanic is fairly certain it's not a BHG. the car runs too well for that as well... Wink

anyway all the help is really appreciated.

and danners, 170rwkw sounds good, is that just with the n/a cams, 10.5psi boost, 3.5 -> 3" exhaust and apexi s-afc? Evil or Very Mad
