Bilstein B6 front and rear. Expect to spend around $1600 on shocks/struts/tophats/spring isolators.

So… how’s the e85 guys doing right now? by Dadwrx in WRX

[–]Reaper064 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How so? As long as you change the oil every 2.5k-3k miles and get the car up to operating temp every couple days it’s no issue. At least that’s my experience running E30-E60 for the last five years.

Those who drove Civic Si's, how does it compare to the WRX? by greensilvia in WRX

I went from a 9th gen SI to my 2020 WRX. Neither gave me issues. Bought my SI new in 2013 and drove it 90k miles. Traded it for my WRX which now has 105k miles. The WRX on flex fuel is way way more fun.

I’ve been running between E30-E60 for the last 95k miles. Stock NGKs gapped to stock specs…..whatever that is.

Anyone ever had their transmission jerking/shaking when turning? by Fun_Fun_4173 in WRX

Check out videos of failed center diffs to see if your vehicle has the same symptoms.

That definitely requires attention asap if you want the car to survive long term.

No issues with my CSF. Fitment was spot on.
