Has any one got a pic of the rar of a impresa engine, iv found my coolent check but want to check if its gonna be a pig of a job.

Its a Water pipe just where the Steering rack is where the Turbo sits..


Cheers

 

so must be the turbo coolant feed or return.. by the sounds of it..

Might need the turbo remove to replace the rubber hose if the return but not major..

Simon

 

I think its a Case of the Clip on the Hose isnt as strong, I can see the pipe fron under the car and its got all coolent round it.

Isnt the Top water pipe the Return and the bottom is the Feed, ????

 

You are correct.. too much beer..

shouldn't be too much hassle to sort.. I haven't had the standard turbo on my car for a while so cannot remember how much needs to come off to access it..
also the turbo is usually what I am removing and the water pipes just an item that needs to be undone to remove it.. if that makes sense..

Possibly got some pics.. checking now

Simon

 

Cheers Simon.

Im not sure if its the Turbo pipes to be honest..What other water pipes are there behind the Engine?

 

you can see the turbo oil return in this pic with tissue blocking the end

Simon

Simon

Simon

You mean the crank breather?

Simon

 

 

Mines a 2003 WRX is yours a classic could it be different?

 

crank breather..

should be the same.. that is a classic engine yes.. but no real differences other than the second breather on the EJ257 2.5 Sti block.

Simon

 

Could be that pipe..

Tho from under the car the pipe looks more to the Left of the Turbo

LOL

 

thats the water feed to turbo..

Simon

 

Yea must be that one. is it hard to get to from the top of the engine bay??

 

Its not that one its a pipe just next to that

Simon
