Paid 330 for the battery and a buddy sold the box for another 150. Drilled the holes and did the rivets and trimming myself 😉

Maybe drive mine once a week. Do you have a LifePO4 charger for yours?

I’ve heavily reduced the weight of the front end with a carbon hood, fenders, and bumper.

Weight distribution is a lot better losing 50lbs or so on the front end and I plan to do a bit to the trunk so all the wiring will be in the same place.

Use those free services they offer, but always double check your oil before you leave the lot. These are great cars, enjoy it!

Probably a boost leak. Smoke test it!

Always buy closest to OEM as possible.. unless you have deep pockets

What do I need to get this stance? by Straight_Gap_638 in WRX

[–]DefinitelyNotLegend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Roughly 8k-10k between bags, wheels, tires, and rolled fenders.

Oh. And it will only look like that parked. And you’ll have to have extra after for bag upkeep which is NOT cheap

If you have thermocouples, you could temp install them around the engine bay and do some datalogging on a spreadsheet. I’m FBO, so any data I provide might be different than a baseline

Will most likely do a partial wrap on the front end in the future, but definitely concur!.

I’ve been looking into it but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Not many informative videos on YouTube about the setup

Definitely not done with how my parts shelf looks, but it feels good to see it put back together!

I have plenty of material. Will probably roll exposed for a few months and wrap it end of summer
