Default Long over due

Well I've been a member for a ill over a year and own a 94 GS300 for about 2 years now.
So far so good the only problem she's gave me was a ball joint failure and a blown radiator. Replaced the ball joint ASAP as well as the radiator. Since the radiator blew she was over heating so I took out the thermostat this was about a year ago. Anywho since then been runnin her with out a thermostat she's been fine since juss running hot and gotta top her off with coolant from time to time. Also sometimes has an odd idle after running for a while. Ohh an also my catalytic convert is long pass its due date lol
Well that's a quick intro to her now here's a pic

Nice man! Good project there. I would definitely put a working thermostat in the car and burp the system of any air. Mine runs great at 260,000 miles! I plan on rebuilding my stock GE and doing it all over again lol
