i thought about the cambelt, this could be a cause as if the timing is out then maybe the damage has built up and got worse over time or something

i think the head gasket might be the cause! i did notice that the coolant in the bottle was bubbling up after a good drive but never thought anything of it!!!

Yea its an rx7 turbo 2
