Poor RX-7
So i am going around on different websites and i happen to come acrossed this video. I am right now trying to find a good rx-7 and I come across this. I guess the car is repaired but still..... sick to watch, so people with week stomach turn away. Surgery i can deal with. This though, i almost puked.

ps there is a long commentary on this but i haven't read all of it, mostly of people complaining

Re: Poor RX-7
1) that vid is mad old
2) the guy's engine blew a coolant seal and was fucking up anyway, so he blew it up

Blown coolant o-rings = warped hosings, only thing salvagable from that engine woudl be the rotors themselves, and even aftere that thery are still usable. So why not would be a better question.
How many cars will sit at 9k for 5 minutes before blowing???
