WJM Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Warning...large pics... The pics of the block is what happens when you blow a head gasket and continue to drive until the engine stops running. The spots you see in the block...are almost equally bad in the mirrored spots on the heads....which, btw, the heads never cracked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Wow! I haven't seen pics of your car for a while, and it definitely looks bad*****! (Probably the only hot-rodded import I've ever seen that has a roof rack on it:lol: .) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 why does everyone make fun of the roof rack? the car looks liek sheet with out it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 No dude, sorry if that came off wrong:-\ . I dunno what others think, but coming from a soob nut like myself, I think it's quirky and neat. Totally cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKrazy Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I think the whole car looks Sweet! The roof rack just blends right in with the lines of everything else, wouldn't look right without it. Just my 2 cents though. On the other hand though the engine doesn't look too hot at all, or looks like it got way too hot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subi81 Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Ahhh I just read that bottom of the post ignore all below ya driving on a blown HG = not good. Good picks deffinatly a lowered wagon, the RX ground effects look great especialy the from one, gives the wagon a mean look! Ya what the heck did you do to that engine, can you fix it? It looks like someone attacked your coolent passages with an arc cutter. Is that from just a blown headgasket? You can acually see the sleaves! trippy!!

Everyone has a comment about the roof rack and such....Dale at boxer4racing.com autox's a sweet 98 impreza L wagon...has the roof rack delete on it. THAT looks good. The Gen 3 wagons with out the roof stuff jsut looks....ugly. The Gen 1's and 2's look good either with or with out. Yes...those are from a blown head gasket. The engine pictured in the car is the replacement engine for the engine thats pictured with the huge gaps there.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subarutex Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Wowsers. Good job on that block WJM! My old block just had cylinder wall damage... scoring and such. The wagon is looking really sick, I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Wagon looks good.......:cool: Engine no look so good..... Seen simular damage on a 'Yota engine, the head actually, total wash-out between adjoining cylinders from owner driving it for over 6 months with blown head gasket. (no comments will be made on this former significant other) Amazing what damage can be done from compressed air, ain't it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
