That'll block the intercooler
 

Check out this pic that my roommate sent me this morning of a Co-worker's WRX in the parking lot. He works in Santa Clara.

Yep, that's a swarm of BEES taking up residence in the hood scoop!

:lol:

That will keep the cats off the car!

My best guess is they did this cause it's warm in there?

that's nuts... he should rev, and let the bov go off... they'd scatter.

that's just crazy!

lol

:eek: WOW! :eek: Just make sure he closes ALL the doors and windows before he revs. :lol:

That's what I need.

I work in SC too. Theres been bees galore there recently. Crazy pic!

Dude, that blows. I've heard that's its a total BlTCH to get rid of a hive once the bees have decided to make their home there. Oh and you better hope to hell that those are afracanized honeybees, they'll follow you home from work to hunt you down and make sure you don't **** with their queen again. :eek:

Hopefully they don't decide to make their home in your A/C ducting. Now that would suck. Imagine cranking it on a hot day just to het a stream of very pissed off bees shooting at your face. :eek:

Any photos from when he started it? Movie?! :D

That's just outta control! Stream of air conditioned bees hahahaha, Steppin, lol.

jason

Couple more pics he just sent me.....it got worse :)

And the hood open shot....

From the looks of the other pics he sent me (too many to post....no video though :)), they called in a beekeeper who took care of the problem.

thats some major crazyness!!!!

Holy Carp! I was wondering how that ended up when I saw the first pic this morning :0

This makes a good case for that mesh-in-scoop mod.

wow!
 

That is absolute COMEDY!!! hA!






Ash

heh....

He needs to go down to stevens creek for that intercooler replacement :devil:

WOW!!!! That must make you loose at least 4/10ths on his 1/4 time. hahaha But did it cost anything to have them removed?

That is a riot. Man, I needed a good laugh. That bee keeper probably did it for free. That is if he got all the bees and the queen for a honey hive.

wow that really sucks.

that's insane dude...

Holy sh!t, that's nuts!!

Just occured to me that the intercooler looks a lot like one of those honeycomb racks from a bee hive. I bet they were fixin to make a new hive.

I'm laughing so hard right now I cant breath!

hahahahaha... crazy

OMG! I can't believe that! Freaking crazy!

thats pretty neat.

Anything for you honey.

This brings a different level of definition to 'Su-bee', doesn't it? From the scoop hives to the drag queens. :D

thats crazy...how long did it take for the bees to start collecting in his scoop?

I'm not sure (my roommate knows the guy, not me) but I assume the intercooler was fine when the guy drove to work in the morning. After he got to work sometime, the bees started.

If you've never seen a hive form before.....well, it's pretty cool :cool:. And it can happen VERY quickly, that many bees could have gotten in there in under an hour, easily.

AKA, where the queen bee goes, a LOT of other bees follow :D

Wow thats crazy! I cant wait to show my friend who has an STI this :)

wow

DAYMN ! WTF . . . how the hell are you suppose to clean something like that off ! hahahaha

well heres an old thread, I remember this one. How the hell did you find this!:D

Fun stuff, any vids yet? =)

Whoa, how in the hell did THAT happen?! :eek:

I've had some bees stuck to my intercooler and radiator as well (not that much, of course...)
I think the bees misinterpreted the IC/radiator as there nest......
The pattern of the IC looks kind of like a bee nest....

It happens AGAINS!!! :(

and damn, Ive been on here a long time :(

That makes me itchy all over

I always keep a honey badger with me just in case.

Is that the same car from the original pictures or did this actually happen again?

Dang, OP=2003. Btw I friggin hate bees

I remember when the OP first came up! Lol.

Just reach in there, find the queen (you can do this by feel, she'll be larger than the others) and move her to a nearby tree or shrub. The rest of the colony will follow shortly.

Oh yeah, and this:

This frightens me as I am allergic to bees.

Legendary bump sir

That's crazy.. 1 way to get rid of them is a fire extinguisher, they most likely wont live but it will eliminate them from the area and eliminate the threat of a sting and possible anaphylactic shock if your allergic.

We had a hive at our shop in the wall. Plugged that **** up multiple times but once a year the bees take over still.

Someone jelly toss in the honey? lol

Bravo Krinkov, bravo, sir.

Damn....... Sht's crazy lol.

So what happens if you squeeze too hard and kill the queen? :confused: :eek:

time for something like this for the hood scoop... Remove before flight - FTW!

Saw another post somewhere where a WRX scoop caught a bird in flight, but a bee's nest is NUTS.

I'm going to be honest. You're going to run. And you'll be chased by a huge swarm of angry bees. Then you jump into a lake and use a reed as a straw in order to breathe. The swarm will then hover over the reed for a few seconds, and then take the shape of a giant finger, which will descend and plug the opening to the reed. They you come up gasping, and the swarms takes the shape of a big hammer and smashes you on the head. Then you run again and it all starts over.

Don't squeeze too hard.

Oh man!!!! thats horrible!

Gave me goosebumps when i saw all those bees..

Not exactly the answer I was looking for, but I'm not opposed to this either. :lol:

It's a 2012 Subaru BEEZ
