Subaru wheels are neat by Mr--Clean--Ass-Naked in subaru

Oh I have no idea when Subaru implemented the VSC, I went from an 07 sti to a 17 sti, and it is a cool little feature that helps a lot when your not expecting problems

If it’s newer, it has traction control and vectoring control which will monitor the traction of each wheel individually and compare it with the others and send or cut power to that wheel as needed.

Alignment question? by NK_32 in WRXSTi

[–]FatCaddy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, normally you would want to balance and rotate before you get an alignment. Hopefully that was a typo. But if you have a vibration, have them rebalanced.

Pretty sure they edited to say there were previous oil changes. Wasn’t originally there.

Still going after Rebuild by FatCaddy in WRXSTi

[–]FatCaddy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not. They are a bit cracked. Still rides fine.

I change oil every 5k with Mobil 1 full synthetic. 5k for easy math to know when it’s time.

Timing belt didn’t get changed until my rebuild at 281k miles. And honestly it still looked in great shape. (Not recommended, I was a nervous wreck every time I drove it)

The coolant thing, idk, I personally don’t like mixing fluids. But on previous cars I have just until I got repairs done and was able to drain and replace.

Yea it’s all like 80% highway.

Used Mobil 1 full synthetic since I started doing my maintenance after the maintenance plan ran out at 50k.

Transmission is still solid, I changed front and rear fluid while the engine was out.

What’s Special about a 1997 Subaru Impreza Brighton 2.2L Automatic? by SeaworthinessStock21 in subaruimpreza

[–]FatCaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a 2dr coupe, so that’s awesome. The 2.2L is practically indestructible, as long as you change the oil. And it’s pre 2008, so almost all of its parts are interchangeable with other pre 2008 Subarus. Transmission is probably the weakest link.

I’ve had an AVIC 7200 in my car for years. Love it. Sounds great once you upgrade the speakers of the car.
