Yep, that hose brings back a few memories. When I replaced my motors in both B13s I made sure I replaced the heater & water pump hoses with new ones no matter what. When it happens to you twice in 2 months on your OEM hoses that came with the car when you bought it brand new it wakes you up real quick. Lost the original motor when the block became warped beyond repair from overheating the 2nd time. In AZ summers here can kill rubber hoses in no time. Hey Cliff, did you just say you're going NA???

That's a pretty wicked blowout! What kind of pressure is the coolant system under?

Mine blows up like that, I'm sticking my new motor in

The new one has the Silicone hoses on it.

When I get back into it, I'm building N/A. Yes. I'll have another turbo car as a daily, (WRX) so That'll fill the boost void in my life. It won't be as fast or as crazy as the beast, but if I can hear the turbo spool, it'll put a smile on my face
