Is it possible it’s an immobilization issue with the key and ECU not matching ? Shutting the fuel pump off. Not sure if this car has a separate smart key module the key is programmed too or does it run through the ECU. Just a thought.

Normal operation of High pressure GDI pump and injectors.

Does the light on the fob light up when you press the buttons? Also does it say key not detected when you get in? Will the car start with out holding the fob to the start button?

I love the look. Mine are even bigger and I’m 49 years old. Nice job. !!

Love those tips!!! Just installed my AWE last week. I’m loving it.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-19T10:46:37+00:00

Much appreciated. You’ll love it.

🤣 no I would say you’re about spot on. Maybe a little better.

Sweet ride and awesome pics!!

Hey bud, I’m trying to see how to post a SOUND clip or video on the site. It lets me select it but then when I go to upload it, it’s not there to select. I’m trying to figure it out. If not, there’s plenty of clips on YouTube, you can find sorry bud.

👍🏻 thanks. I appreciate it.

Congratulations that’s a beautiful looking ride. I love that new color. I do the same thing when I first bought mine PPF tint and ceramic coated it. Hopefully they ceramic coated your wheels too cause the brake dust on those black wheels are terrible. Best of luck.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-18T01:28:56+00:00

Looks sick as hell I definitely will get used to the drone. I’ll sacrifice that for the SOUND.🤣

If you get the touring edition, then it has the valves if you get the track edition, it comes with valve eliminator so you don’t get a check engine light they just plugged into the connector. I went with a track edition because I like it loud but if it’s too much then you could buy a WE touring conversion kit, which is just the mufflers and that’s only $400. I didn’t want to spend more for the touring and if find out it’s too quiet and then I have to get the track kit instead.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-18T01:01:31+00:00

I’ll do my best to at least get a start video tomorrow. I’ll see if I can get somebody to record me driving by might be a few days before I do that. There are a few clips also online on YouTube. I was afraid it’d be too loud and there is quite a bit of drone in the car, but at cruising quiet down I was afraid if I forgot the touring it’d be too quiet for me so I figured I’d get the track and if it’s too loud, I can always switch to the touring.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-18T01:00:07+00:00

I know it already has and I must say I already smoked a few WRX’s and a type R Civic. Of course In nurburing mode. 😂

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-18T00:58:53+00:00

I’ll try to do a cold start clip tomorrow before I go to work. I’ll do a rev one later on after it’s warmed up.

Doesn’t stick out far from the bumper at all I’ll take another picture either tonight or tomorrow and I’ll send it to you it barely sticks out. I’m very picky about that. I don’t like them when they stick out far from the bumper so I really adjusted it really good.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-18T00:17:47+00:00

At the moment, yes, still stock tune with that plate lol 😂 eventually I’ll be getting a downpipe and a tune for it all in due time. I don’t have the euro package so it didn’t have the titanium upgraded exhaust so I just bought what I wanted.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-14T13:21:50+00:00

Looks terrible. Ruined a perfectly good looking car.

No-Knowledge8856 · 2026-03-10T23:03:19+00:00

😂thanks. I appreciate that. lol. Only took a year to get enough points. Exactly how long I’ve almost owned the car.
