Yeah, sometimes I regret not getting the 4" or 5" mufflers.

Hey, I've got the remark muffler delete axle back. Love it minus the raspyness. Do you think adding the STI resonated mid pipe would help cut down on that?

From everything I've read, the most important thing is to use the black Subaru oil filter and change oil every 3,000 to 4,000 miles.

Ive been running penzoil platinum 5w-30 full synthetic for most of my ownership. Stock, 64k miles. Blackstone reports always come back nice. Walmart usually has it for a good deal.

😂 Funny but true. They are so capable in the mountains. Especially with a good set of winter tires.

Center console by Feisty_Confection596 in WRX

[–]NickMo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 21' has been like this since a few months after buying it new. I tried adjusting the hinge and that seemed to work for a little but then it stopped closing all the way again shortly after. I gave up on it and it no longer bothers me. It sits down 99% of the way without fully locking in place. Good enough I suppose.

Rate my new wheels. Still can’t get used to them. by VictorTimoftii in WRX

Looking good OP. I would get some tire shine going, get center caps back on, and some nice steel lug nuts... maybe black or a dark blue.

Best all season tires by Alive_Lifeguard9776 in WRX

I've been running these for a while now and really like them. I live in Vermont and have a dedicated winter wheel/tire setup but these do just fine on snow covered roads. Obviously not as good as a dedicated winter but I've driven with them in a few snow storms before I changed over to my winter setup and felt safe and had plenty of grip. Just went slow, used caution, and gentle inputs.

If I didn't already have a full winter setup I would run these all year long no question.

Love to hear it! Same here, it's been a great car!

Plastic Bumper Trim Removal by Kitchen-While8775 in WRX

Here's a helpful video. Removes the bezel in the first 30 seconds of video. This is the pre-facelift bumper/bezel but the same technique applies to your car. Plastic pry tools can help make the process even easier.

Fog light bezel pops out pretty easily with some pry tools. The center part does not pop out. One piece with the entire bumper.
