This was funny, guy was getting the flames to come out, one guy nearly got burnt getting so close with his camera as some of the flames were huge..

And then this older boy walks up and slaps that KOK sticker on his car he wasn't best pleased

Funny that. I had a long conversation with the bloke that towed my vx this afternoon.....he 'had' an evo 6 and was gutted he had to sell it because of the servicing costs etc. Took me back a bit too if what he was saying was right?...servicing every 4.5k, and diff rebuilds every 4k for the yawl control

Sad indeed if he was talking the truth

Almost as sad as seeing my baby off like this

TMIC's are the death of scoob's cause at higher speeds the air passes over the roof instead of into the IC. And it looks familar, if its the same one that goes up crail then its bloody quick

Not to be funny mate but subaru would have spent millions developing that car
And with their history in rallying if they really thought that it was that much of an issue they would front mount it instead

Granted its not ideal but not death

Soemm comments make me kaugh they spend millions developing a car they are not going to have short cuts when it comes to cooling

you would be supprised what a car company will do to save cost

if they can get away with it

example, not a comparison but an example, years ago ford made a car with the fuel tank right at the back of the car, and upon a accident it would rupture and explode normally killing or seriously injuring the occupants.

now to redesign the car would cave cost more than to pay out compensation claims. so they left the car as it was.

Ford Pinto (Ford America), notorious case.
