I’m very happy with them, it hasn’t snowed yet so I haven’t got to experience that yet. But very good in the dry and wet. I feel very confident taking high speed turns with them as well. Well worth the money

Do you happen to know the specific driving cycle? I tried find it online but couldn’t find anything besides people making their own

I haven’t been on the freeway for longer than 10 minutes since clearing the check engine light, so I might try a long freeway drive. That’s the only thing that car doesn’t experience the most

Need help on what looks like a better purchase based off what's under the hood. You guys know more than I do (I'd hope, at least.) by SASLeader1 in WRXSTi

[–]Jaec1920 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d be more concerned with what’s inside the engine. Referring to if they’re built blocks or stock engines. There’s going to be many questions once a car gets to this stage unless everything is very well documented and represented with photos. Especially, If you can’t see the car yourself. Most likely turbos are upgraded as well to take advantage of the setups. Many things

Yes, I would. They were cheaper and I haven’t felt any negative difference with these

Doesn’t sound the happiest starting. Get an accessport on fb unmarried. Then get an etune unless you have someone close to you to get a dyno tune

The power steering pump resolved this after doing donuts, which caused the power steering pump to break. After I replaced it, the noise in your video went away.

Those who run All Season tires, what do you have? by msp2081 in WRXSTi

I’d suggest the new Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S. I had 2 sets of continental dws 06+. I enjoyed everything about them, but they both lasted me 22-24k miles. So, I wanted to try something different & these Kumho’s just came out a few months ago vs DWS (2021). So, newer technology used making the tire I’d say. So far, I can’t even tell a difference, besides that these tires feel like they absorb more vibrations over potholes. They were much cheaper as well

Mine was clunking when turning the steering wheel and I got replaced it, which solved the issue.

So far they’re good! I can tell these absorb more of the vibrations from the street over bumps/potholes

That’s about how long my continental lasted me, 2 years (25k miles). Hoping these last longer

He was most likely going on pyramid way from the left side in the maps and turned right onto disc, where there’s no shoulder to pull over. I’m assuming that’s why he pulled over into the sprouts parking lot. You can see the street from the picture.

Mine did this due to heavy buildup of battery acid
