nope.. no need.. your local motor factors sell them and heres a little hint for you... dont ask for a glanza thermostat.. ask for a corolla 4efe thermostat.. the are the exact same but for the price..

corolla 4efe thermostat = 13.50
glanza/gt 4efte thermostat = 19.50 upwards

the minute you say jap import in places their faces light up with joy as they can over charge you..lol

process of elimination man.. try the thermostat first and get back on here if it doesnt cure it.. if the thermostat is stuck closed the water in the engine will boil and youll see bubbles at the rad cap.. im outy man.. get back to me when you get that done or pm if im not online so i can see it when i come back on..
