I posted up a week or so ago, mentioning that I was getting a green liquid spray around the left hand side of my engine bay

Well, I've done a bit more investigating and it seems that although the car is not leaking coolant onto the garage floor when the engine's off or just idling it seems that when I'm out on the road and give it some beans, it's kind of 'coughing out' a coolant splatter

The car is a MY95 JDM WRX

Anyone ever had a problem like this or got any idea what might be causing it?

Hi check the plastic sides of the radiator as they are prone to splitting,warm the car up and check for high pressure leaks,mine was squirting out of a pin hole for a while then split in a cloud of steam.

Does anyone know the best to get parts for JDM Scoobs then?

Just had the top hose on my 1996 JDM STI split with the same symptoms, with the bonnet up revving the engine when warm caused it to leak.

I bought a uk turbo hose and that fitted perfectly.
