Generally coolant is supposed to be on the inside, a bit like your blood.

Yea but a rotary has about 3 main moving parts where a Subaru ej20 has about 40 moving parts

[Guest boostcut]

whats your point?

I guess what he's trying to say is that Rotary's are easier to work on? I'm not sure, never worked on a rotary.

[Guest boostcut]

um, yes and no. id like to see any "subaru" mechanic pull the sequential turbo system off a s6/7/8 without saying ****, **** , bitch, slut or *****

and have you ever seen the amount of vac lines on a 3rd gen 7? double the amount of a b4 and add 9
