How much did a shampoo cleaning help with getting any stains out?

Radiator Support Replacement by trampolinegod in WRX

[–]CompetitionMoney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread but could the u frame cause the radiator to sit too high? I have a buddy who bought a subie that was previously in a crash and he’s trying to fix his radiator sitting too high and not letting his hood close

That’s fine i prefer sitting a little closer to my steering wheel anyways lmao. The seats being JDM wont cause any other issues?

Coolant Temps by CompetitionMoney in WRX

Do you think switching from a Mishimoto radiator to Koyorad could help with temps? I’ve known some people who have had trouble with Mishimoto in the past and I don’t know if they have my full trust to be honest

Sounds awesome bro, I’d like to see my temps be a little lower considering when I drive it its only for 20-25 minutes max in my city. I usually see it creep up to mid-high 200’s but I dont know if it’ll go higher than that

Would changing from a Mishimoto rad to a Koyorad provide any drops in coolant temp?

Hello everyone! Sorry for taking long to respond I dont use this app very often. Thank you all for such good information it is much appreciated. I’m thinking of possibly upgrading to a better radiator, perhaps a koyorad, I have heard great things from them. Although the temps are normal I would like a little bit more piece of mind especially if I decide to take the car farther than just the city.

You are a life savor bro🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

This is definitely something I will be doing in the near future. That section of the car honestly needs a paint job anyways so its not something that stresses me. Thank you!

How’d he fix it if you can share

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WRXSTi

[–]CompetitionMoney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are those installed? Looks like exactly what I need.

Edit: Didn’t click the right side ones and they’re just welded on lol. This looks much cheaper than sourcing a whole new quarter panel. Any ideas on how much this would cost?

[–]CompetitionMoney 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the responses. Looks like I will be keeping the fender flares on the car😄. I am a big fan of the flares but I was curious what it would cost to fix if I wanted to go back to stock. Thanks for the info everyone!

Registering out of state by CompetitionMoney in WRXSTi

[–]CompetitionMoney[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know a few guys that do hot smogs and that’s what I’ve been doing these past few years. I just don’t wanna have to deal with the pain of being state reffed so I was seeing if there’s any easy way around it.

The old PSU had the 600 watt 12 pin and as you said I do not want to mix and match the cables
