looks nice, would look sweet hanging out the back of a manx.
looks like it has a aluminium timing cover so would be nice polished.
someones probably already posted it, but hey it happens.

Whenever i see that picture i'm always reminded it took subaru 40 years to finally get around to standard serpentine belts, haha.

funny how it took Subaru all the time to come up with a watercooled version of this... of course I am oversimplifying it.

just a personal hatred of soft flexy things operating critical non flexy things, i know theres millions of happy subarus putting around with belts,
but im happy they have done away with them

that thinking applies to tyres too, but they work fine.
