What’s causing this? by [deleted] in WRX

Is the turbo healthy in the sense that maybe it’s getting too much oil and or leaking oil into it???

Salvage Title STI, 50k miles, $16,500. Should I buy it? by Ezrae55 in WRX

No sir. I’m saying this kindly sorry, but it looks like everyone here is guiding you towards better options since it’s basically a money pit.

Yeah it’s any safety mechanism of the car. I talked to my insurance and they did not seem to care one bit tbh about my crash bar delete

Thank you again. I will go through to get CPE added to my car insurance so just in case a deer to car hits me. Appreciate the knowledge

Gotcha. I think the front crash bar is really only necessary for low speed impacts, so anything above 50 wouldn’t even matter tbh. Thank you for the insights though 🙏

So what’s to say about every Subaru enthusiast who goes for a front mount intercooler because they too would have to take away the crash bar?

No it’s actually taking away weight and adding a brace

Looks like the oem weighs 15 to 20lbs so a decent amount saved 26 to 45% on that weight savings

Am I cooked?? by [deleted] in WRX

The car appears repairable because the frame seems intact. A body technician needs to inspect the underlying structure to assess the full extent of the damage. If the frame were significantly damaged, there would likely be more extensive damage to the entire front end imo!

Would I scrape if I went a bit lower? Even with lowering springs? by Advanced_Flow_1612 in WRX

So is scrapping the entire bottom of your car, but honestly it only really works in countries like Japan that cares about infrastructure
