2.5 WRX STI hybrid powered beast  Group: Members Posts: 782 Joined: 16-September 04 From: Las Vegas, NV Member No.: 2,771 Region Association: Southwest Region  |
On the way home last week, sitting in a parking lot traffic situation on 215 east. Looked down at my temp guage... Holy shit it is reading 280!!! Pull off the highway, let the temps come down to 220, head towards home and about 3 miles before my exit.... Chitty Chitty BANG BANG!!! Smoke and steam everywhere!!! Definately blew the headgasket and warped the hell out of the heads (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
Looking like I am buying a new engine!!! Actaully, I am not bothered at all about this... Come to find out that the so called WRX engine in my car is not a true WRX... It is a 2.0 but not with all the WRX goodies... Sooooo. $2500 for a newer engine and should be even more powerful than before! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
