Hi guys,

My R33 GTST got a serious problem now. I went for a mechanic to repair my clutch last week. Until yesterday i noticed the temperature for the car shoot up to "H". Before that i only smell some radiator coolant coming out from the aircon vent and the front demister.

So surprised that when i open the radiator cap, the whole rediator dried up. After i did some investigate, notice that it's actually leak out from the plastic under the dash board.WTF.... Wat's the coolant doing under my dashboard...??? The coolant wet the whole carpet of the passenger side.

I am so blur now.. Cause i dunno wat actually happen... Someone mind to tell me why would this happen plz? It's because they break it when they fix the clutch??

yes as he must have cut a hose accidently while playing around with the clutch

Bit of a stretch to cut a hose behind the firewall while changing a clutch.....

Anyway, how does the heater for the car works? use the heat from radiator? Why the heater is not working when the radiator drain up?

Basically the heater works using a small radiator in the aircon unit under the dash, air gets pushed past it and heats up!!

i had mine do the same thing about year and a half ago --- still; not fixed as it takes alot of time to fix, have to remove the dash completely then remove the heater core and get that replaced/fixed!!! will be getting that done next week so i'll post here on how much to fix etc!!

heater should still work abit but not well, and would suggest either getting it fixed now or bypassing the heater inputs in firewall til you can get them fixed!!

or you'll keep that not so nice smell in your car, and run the risk of doing damage to engine due to over heating!!

weird shit happens when mechanics have your car. My car was the mechanics to get my exhaust rotated for my new dump pipe, then when i was driving home 1 of my stock at time cooler hosing came off. First time it has ever happened
