From cold the needle rises as far as C, then goes no higher.

Heaters all work as normal, fans come on when they need to etc seems that the gauge is getting a faulty reading, wouldf it be the coolant temp sensor or the actual gauge itself?

Will be the sensor as that is where the reading for the gauge comes from

Will check the wires on my MY99 sti but pretty sure the wiring setup is different, the ones with plugs on the site are for the imports iirc. May have to buy one and splice your plug on it from the current sensor
