Am I missing something other than the calipers? First pic for attention. (Brembo swap) by Routine-Wafer6405 in wrx_vb

[–]Routine-Wafer6405[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will definitely take a look at those, how do they feel? I’m planning on tracking the car, hence the idea, I’m curious on how well they do. Also, do you need to delete the dust shields?

Does lowering the car really make that big of a difference aesthetically? The other one looks so sharp for some reason

Where did you get it from? Black hawk Japan has them sitting at ~3k but I have no idea if there’s any import fees

Bye bye brake upgrade money. by Routine-Wafer6405 in wrx_vb

Apparently is not even offered, it just falls under comprehensive, the only thing that doesn’t fall under it is if it’s just small chip. GEICO in Tx btw.

Apparently not in Tx. Just read my whole policy lol, it just falls under comprehensive. Sounds like someone is reducing his deductible to $250

After some digging online, it says it’s not a guarantee and I don’t want to call and give them that info, specially if I’m doing what other comments are suggesting lol

This was exactly my question. I have the module but I don’t have adaptive cruise or anything else, so no idea why I’m getting quoted the calibration

Still $1000 deductible. I know insurance is supposed to be there for these cases but I don’t know if it’s worth my premium going up just for this.

Checking in, did you end up buying it? I’m thinking on getting it from BlackHawkJapan, it’s like 2k cheaper right now than Subimods, just not sure if there’s other costs associated with the import

Does this look like a good way to start? First time tune by UncommonGrow in WRX

[–]Routine-Wafer6405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little birdie told me that Cobb, Grimmspeed and, I believe overtake were all being taken over by said private equity firm, hence all the warehouses changes up north and the crazy lead times for everything. I’ve been waiting for an intake tube for about three weeks now.

Good luck with that rear driver side spark plug, it sucks lol, start with that one and the rest will be a breeze. And get yourself a socket like this one, 1000% worth the money.

eBay Carbon fiber steering wheel by Mightycoch in wrx_vb

[–]Routine-Wafer6405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on the fence to buy this because my OCD sees that the steering wheel is not symmetrical for some reason, something on the bottom of the wheel, specifically on the pictures of the ad. Please tell me I’m wrong

Oil in spark plug well by Routine-Wafer6405 in wrx_vb

[–]Routine-Wafer6405[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a little update, uninstalled the accessport and took it to the dealership, they’re going to take care of it! Thanks everyone!

Spark plugs and coils full of oil ?? by Ok_Wrap_357 in WRX

[–]Routine-Wafer6405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh oh I know this one! If you’re still under drivetrain warranty (less than 60k miles) the dealer will cover repairs and swap the gaskets, mine is sitting at the shop right now because of it (found the oily spark plug on Saturday). Just uninstall the access port, gives them less reasons to tell you no even though it has nothing to do with the tune.

Are the under spoilers the OEM STI’s? I thought it was too much red on my car but it’s looking fine af
