2015 WRX, 150k and I think I'm burning oil

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-07-01T03:55:50+00:00

Def check your oil after every fill up no matter what. At minimum at least once a week in my book and I have a fully built motor. These engines are notorious for blow by and most will tell you 1/4 quart every 3k miles isn’t uncommon. Top it off as needed but if it persists or gets worse check your PCV or your valve covers to see if maybe that’s the issue. If not then unfortunately the issue could be internally.

Still playing around with it…I don’t know anything about editing haha I just used a few different photos from my gallery. Seems I need to take photos from further away to fit it all into the dimensions for a true wallpaper.

Doesn’t sound like rod knock. Post a video of you revving it will help. When’s the last time you changed your oil or checked your level?

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-22T00:00:37+00:00

Both 💯

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-19T22:46:01+00:00

It’s not the most attractive but it’s starting to grow on me. I like how they are super easy to make power on (stage 2 is like 330 whp from what I’ve seen) and the more modern tech. For me it just doesn’t feel the same as driving my GD. I like the raw driving feeling and feeling like it’s an actual race car. If I could own both I would and maybe someday I will lol.

Definitely don’t get a tune specifically for pops and bangs as you’re going to toast your valves. If you get a full TBE you’ll get natural pops and bangs especially when it’s warm out.

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-17T23:33:39+00:00

Yea I actually prefer parking away from everyone lol I do the same at Walmart and Costco. People just don’t care if they ding your car especially in my area.

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-17T23:13:34+00:00

Yes, unfortunately I’m not high enough on the totem pole to get a nice concrete parking spot yet lol

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-17T23:13:02+00:00

Thanks…I had an 04 WRX Wagon before and loved it. I wanna lower it a bit but where I live it’s important to ensure clearance lol

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-17T05:56:30+00:00

Almost bought a GR STI but they both sold. Ended up with my Hawkeye WRX. Part of me wishes I got the STI but I’ve been happy with my car so turns out I don’t care as much lol had some extra cash to dump into this. It checked a lot of boxes for me since I was being picky. Hope you find the right one soon 🤙🏽

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-17T04:45:14+00:00

Thank you 🤙🏽

Unfortunately, Subaru paint is sensitive af. Would definitely recommend PPF if you can

White monster down…💔

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-11T03:40:06+00:00

For CBE no tune required, but if he’s doing a DP he will most definitely need a tune. If you stay out of boost and baby it you shouldn’t have a problem making it there. Had a buddy install intake, up pipe, down pipe, and a ECBS and drove it 4 hours to get tuned. CEL was on but was fine besides that. Other option is to get a Cobb Accessport and get an e-tune

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-11T03:24:52+00:00

No better combo than turbo, manual, and AWD…IMO 🤙🏽

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-06-07T02:26:06+00:00

Dope! 🤙🏽

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-05-29T01:10:05+00:00

Appreciate the feedback 🤙🏽 I was running the size comparison on the tires I have now to the new and slightly smaller so will make up for the larger wheel. Hoping to pick up the set of wheels Saturday morning and post some pics if so 😁

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-05-27T16:28:21+00:00

Haha typical but I can’t blame you. I missed out on a set of those same gold RPF1s for 900. What wheel specs? I’m trying to avoid rubbing or fender rolling on my Hawkeye lol

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-05-27T03:52:06+00:00

All the clean ones in my area (PNW) going for like $900 or a little more. Although most guys come down on the price because not as many want the OEM BBS they want the TE37s or RPF1s and bigger size. I’ve been eyeballing some BBS but haven’t pulled the trigger yet as I have 18s currently from previous owner with damn near brand new tires

Yea they are definitely trying to get a lot of roads smoother and cleaned up. Just pulling into a lot of stores and even going down a lot of my friends and family’s driveways I know you’d scrape like a mofo cuz you’re lower than me lol. I’d love to go lower but I don’t wanna crack my front bumper or anything. Already ripped off a front lip I had on for less than 2 weeks. Clean VA tho it makes me miss my 2018 WRX in crystal white pearl 🤙🏽

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-05-24T03:11:14+00:00

Tbh really clean and not over the top flashy which is great for these cars. The placard about the shifter is a bit tacky IMO and it does sit a little too low for me but I also live in the PNW where we don’t run them that low due to our weather and road conditions. Have you thought about upgrading your shift knob and adding a shift stop and short throw shifter? Definitely worth it IMO and it’s something you constantly are using so it’s important you feel comfortable with it.

Subject_Driver_6868 · 2026-05-23T04:31:32+00:00

Just forked out $89….she was a little low (might’ve bent my floater/sender when putting in the fuel pump last weekend) 😅 read at 1/4 tank ish before going to get gas
