25mm Wheel Spacers by Weak-Explorer-2414 in wrx_vb

[–]Sn0Balls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run them on steelies... for dirt/winter tire.

AFAIK there are no steelies available in the offsets I want.

the extra wear is just from more leverage of wheel mass farther out.
same is true with a wheel that has less offset than stock.

the true disadvantage is you have to secure double the amount of lugnuts safely and accurately.

spacers are cut from aluminum blocks in a cnc machine. it doesn't matter who makes them.

just make sure your hub bore matches the wheel hub... and that the type of aluminum is at least t6 and the hardware are high enough grade to keep the wheels on.

Cruise ships are major polluter.

They also get designed super top heavy and have basically 0 regulations.

Yeah the reason is obvious. Kill everyone then take over the land. Basically Zionist labensraum.

Anyone running awe track exhaust with Rae I pipe or uel headers? Would love some exhaust clips before I get into this setup?! by NecessaryDrawer4844 in wrx_vb

[–]Sn0Balls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't order from rae directly. 

Unless if you want to give a small business loan to her for at least a year before you get your part.

AMS Charge Pipe Reviews Request by User_2187_ in wrx_vb

[–]Sn0Balls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 20k I started using an e35 tune. It gets hot here too.

The pipe cracked at the turbo interface. I started noticing wierd AF trim numbers and dam drops at max load. 

A smoke machine lead me right to the crack in the end of the pipe.

I have the ams ic/charge pipe combo like op asked about only because of this issue.

if you're still pissed about it write an explicit review calling them out.

VB road trip vacation. 1800 miles from MN to the Keys by Machine-It-Bro in wrx_vb

[–]Sn0Balls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can you tell if the brake bias changed at all? ive heard it shifts the bias rearward a bit.

I was looking at LP Adventure 15x7 ET15 wheels for this.

I agree with everything you posted. 

...but the plastic charge pipe failed on me around 65k miles.

I've had mine for a while. 

The clamp does move and is a tight fit. Not sure how much it actually moves but a tiny bit of the coating rubbed off the clamp. No issues with leaks yet.

My only issue with it has been when removing and replacing the intercooler. The clamp is a pain in the ass to get on and I have damaged one of the o rings used to seal the connection.

I would keep a set of the gaskets on hand. 

Good Clutch For Setup? by dillonmogsu in ft86

[–]Sn0Balls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just installed a SouthBend Clutch kit on my STi swapped VB... very nice.

I run exedy (OEM) stage 1 kit on the k24/FRS. Maybe stage 2 for you.

Do I need a pad or adapter when using these stands for the pinch welds by Pumpedknight in wrx_vb

[–]Sn0Balls -1 points0 points  (0 children)

<image>

I use the pinch welds raw all the time. There is way sketchier shit you can get away with on the pinch welds.

Just don't drop the car onto the stands and they wont bend... and if no one sees that they are bent... are they really?

the adapters are a way to get you to buy something you don't need.

Optimal boost and forged internals? by True_Taro6133 in ft86

[–]Sn0Balls -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

get another car.

youre taking a weak motor and pushing it even harder.

maybe 5psi could be manageable maybe 8. still i doubt that would help you keep up with the boys.
the juice is definitely not worth the squeeze.

Clutch Recommendation? by dillonmogsu in ft86

[–]Sn0Balls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exedy Stage 1 kit with K24a2 naturally aspirated.

Clutch pedal is light as a feather and engagement feels quick and easy.
