Re: [Mk2] [NA] Replacing the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

Thanks for the prompt responses guys. I'll look into getting another sensor with the correct connector on. I haven't tested the sensor actually. I was under the impression you'd have to take it out to test properly. I do however share the symptoms that others have experienced, the car always used to...

I have bought a new ECTS from my local parts store put have noticed th...

Sounds good. Keep us updated.

Have you done this sort of engine swap before?

Re: Gareth's 1999 Sonic Shadow Revision 5

Looking good! Just read this from the start. I had a look at your fly-by video, followed by your Snetterton lap video. The car sounds great! Was it a mongoose backbox and K&N kit fitted?

Looking to get some HT leads for my Rev 5 NA. My local 'All Parts' store offers a set for £57. At that price I doubt they'll be genuine Toyota parts. Not sure yet but I might take the risk, it's got to be better than my current leads. Cry, did you decide what leads to get in the end? Doesn't look li...

My second car after a Nissan Micra

Been lurking around on the forum for a while now and thought it best to introduce myself. After doing some research and a few months looking I bought a UK spec red (read pink) rev 5 T-top.
