never would have guessed.

well i would have never gussed that my neck that conects to the water pump housing that holds the thermostat in it, would have went out. well maybe because its made of plastic but what a peice of crap. i hoped in my car drove it about a mile to show it off to some guy who wants a TII and at this time it still cold so i get out and let it warm up all the way, so im talking and all of the sudden my RPM's dropped and at that point i just thought it had fully warmed up but then it shot out solid white smoke in my car and i freaked out. my friend jumped in my car and turned it off. i pop the hood and the there is coolant everywhere. i was freaking out hoping i didnt blow a coolant seal because of this stupid neck, luckly i had an extra one from my j-spec. went home and got it, and when i took the old one off it had a fat *** crack in it, i have no idea why the hell it just broke i wanst even driving it. well i'll post some pics of it ASAP

My top tank (hot hose area) had a really, really small crack in it, and I found this high pressure epoxy called "Plastic Fusion" and I dont have that problem anymore.
