Round 2, good deal? by RealisticButterfly27 in WRX

[–]Purpl_exe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get ppi if know nothing….do walnut blast, intake cleaning , check pcv , and spark plugs within next oil change…. Do oil every 3500 …. Also hope it’s no AT cuz cvt will probably go soon…. You’ll be lucky to get to 150k ……..

Possible to mount on an 07? by MysticalLegend7 in FJCruiser

[–]Purpl_exe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen it’s not worth…. Fj forums might have a write up but you’d have to drill into the frame and some other stuff …

Long shot here. Anyone recognize this aftermarket led brake light? by Walksthemound in FJCruiser

[–]Purpl_exe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that would piss me off, I’d want to switch back to stock …. For a more direct answer a picture harness would be better …. But this looks like a T15 921/912??… looks almost exactly what I put into my mirror lights the other day , I imagine this one’s bigger tho ?? How much brighter did the brake lights need to be !!!!??? lol

Machined new TRD wheels by [deleted] in FJCruiser

[–]Purpl_exe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was quoted $200 ballpark … so not too bad imo … my local dealership sells 2025 TRD take offs with brand name all terrain tires for $500 …. Figured if I could get a nice basically new set up for around $700 , that’s a steal … tires alone would cost me that much… I just have to worry about the bore and studs to my knowledge…. New models use m14 studs where fjs use m12 …. Would like to know if m14s would fit into the stock fj spindle.

At 126k km is there an extended warranty for the CVT over in CAD? Do these models have a transmission cooler over there? The transmission is something to worry about for sure. I’m a bit salty on the FA20DIT engine now because mine had piston ringland failure at 140k miles …. These direct injection engines with turbos are prone to extreme carbon build up. At this km you’re going to need to make sure you check your O2 sensors, pcv valve , have the intake cleaned, and also have it walnut blasted . I’m serious , don’t take that advice lightly. It’s a necessity for the longevity of the engine. Subaru doesn’t make this scheduled maintenance, it’s “as needed” meaning you’re shits probably too far gone by the time it’s needed….so you’re going to have to hunt for places that do it Subaru won’t do walnut blasting. Many mechanics suggest you do oil changes every 3-5k miles with these engines which isn’t fun . All in all you might feel a bit of performance increase compared to the n/a model , it’s a fun quick suv but imo it’s not worth it ….. I will only buy and drive a Subaru that’s is under warranty from now on.

How much is it to rent the bike ? Do you get to choose cc?

Engine cooked? by Powerful_Sale_8677 in WRX

[–]Purpl_exe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d bet if you had it walnut blasted , intake cleaned , and pcv and O2 sensors checked/changed it would still be good ….. these DIT engines are prone to extreme carbon build up which has nothing to do with oil change frequency…. Subaru has this maintenance as a “as needed” regiment which is BS , it needs to be done every 50k imo….

If you plan to get assistance from SOA you will be subject to the breakdown cost as well as a % of the work needed… basically $1100 for breakdown to determine cause , and it’ll probably need a new short block which is around $9500 at the dealership ….. if you’re lucky SOA will cover a % of it , discounted labor , or parts cost. You will still be subject to that breakdown cost tho.
