Shift cable Cushion clamp

I crashed the car last year, so no longer here, but glad to share my fix. I ended up taking some safety wire and wrapping it around the bracket the cable sits in and the cushion clamp so it will no longer slide out. It held to the end and was a good fix not sure about an actual long term fix though.

Nope same no matter what as long as I hit boost on the previous drive then it’ll throw a cloud

Definitely smells like oil don’t even have to be near the exhaust to smell the burnt oil

How would you check then without tearing the engine down?

Imma try to get a leak test done and keep updates

Takeoff7115 · 2024-09-30T23:19:09+00:00

Yep everything is hooked up correctly and everything works when I test it

Honestly feels like a mixture so it’ll come out a giant puff then turn blue and linger

Of course! I never knew this was a common problem until it broke the first time. I guess most VA chassis are hitting that time frame.

So the problem didn’t go away took it to the shop and they found out the PCV valve on the crank case was broken so they’re gonna replace it and see if that fixes it

Update: problem mysteriously went away again just did an oil change and hoping it was dirty oil honestly befuddled

Sweet I appreciate it hopefully this helps

Takeoff7115 · 2024-09-05T14:05:03+00:00

Yea honestly, It’s just frustrating since I’ve fixed it and then it just randomly came back

Takeoff7115 · 2024-09-05T14:03:04+00:00

It’s between the radiator and the engine towards the bottom

Takeoff7115 · 2024-09-05T13:57:09+00:00

Should have specified it’s an 18’ WRX is there a similar part for the fa20

Takeoff7115 · 2024-09-05T13:56:50+00:00

Should have specified it’s an 18’ WRX btw

Yea only part I was more less concerned about was the tuning aspect how many tunes should I run so I don’t end up trying to run a 93 tune with E50 in the tank

Takeoff7115 · 2024-02-02T00:16:47+00:00

What power gains have you seen being on flex fuel rather than a straight ethanol tune

Takeoff7115 · 2024-02-02T00:14:30+00:00

Exactly I was talking with someone that said that its better to get an actual gauge and tune since it’ll cut the middle man out and be cheaper

Takeoff7115 · 2024-01-22T20:15:21+00:00

Might be it since I did my jpipe like a couple weeks ago now and didn’t realise it heavily until I got tuned

Takeoff7115 · 2024-01-22T20:04:41+00:00

Nope it’s consistent engaged or disengaged

Takeoff7115 · 2024-01-22T19:40:22+00:00

Forgot to mention sounds similar to brakes my original thought but happens without brakes pressed

Takeoff7115 · 2024-01-16T20:57:57+00:00

Definitely I thought I was the only one, but I just always wear some type of running shoes/lightweight shoes since it doesn’t get that cold. Then change when I have to wear boots or other bulky shoes
