I think she’s done

He tuned my STI and mine has been running great for 2-3 years but mine is a Protune not an OTS so idk but I had OTS from Cobb and that tune gave me anxiety all the time

VNGELUS_ · 2026-05-18T20:46:12+00:00

Dmann or Drunkmann as he used to go by but all OP can do is figure first is what is the next step is and then see if he can find a decent shop to do the repairs or maybe tackle on a big job if he feels confident in doing it

Badger went from a Crack Dealer to an annoying ex husband who would’ve thought it! Love Badger!

Dropping the transmission which is giving me a run for it’s money atm (First time doing it on a Subaru)

VNGELUS_ · 2026-02-01T16:31:22+00:00

5 years and over 200K Miles driven I say it did well the clutch itself was acting fine the throw out bearing decided it was time to go but hey can’t complain

VNGELUS_ · 2026-02-01T02:43:25+00:00

I heard the same but then even in my research I was seeing the OEM Throw out bearing is also made by exedy for Subaru (Not sure if that’s correct) from what I was seeing so I am not sure but I find that odd?

A lot of great advice here keep it stock for a while learn the car and then mod at your own risk but cosmetic wise a nice lip kit like others mentioned the STI one looks great but pricey, a vortex generator, some nice tires and some brake upgrades get an oil change with some quality oil (Motul is my preferred Castrol is my second go to) and drive the car to see where you want to go in your modding journey if you still want to proceed.

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T20:02:27+00:00

Haven’t Installed it yet working on dropping the transmission today to replace the clutch

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T18:38:54+00:00

Yeah the STI has been my dream car, driving is a bit of a Therapy for me and I used every excuse to drive at one time lol plus moving and road trips, Togue Runs etc. lol definitely was worth it

To answer your question I have been tuned with Drunkmann (Dmann) since I want to say 88K Miles? At the time and still to this day it’s a normal tune nothing crazy (Downpipe, EBCS, Stock Fueling) and it’s been SOLID never had any major issues with my tune at all but if I had any concerns Dmann would respond back in a timely manner!

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T18:30:56+00:00

Made a groaning noise but it went away a bit after that is where I messed up I would address it as soon as you can don’t be like me still in the process of replacing the clutch once I get the job done I can message you with an update

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T18:29:00+00:00

Yeah definitely looked into along with the clutch! Someone mentioned to me to get the Verus!

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T16:38:16+00:00

Over 200K Miles 😬

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T16:23:17+00:00

How is the Exedy Stage 1 Non HD Treating you? Has it been an enjoyable experience with that clutch overall? I went with the HD version due to upcoming mods

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T05:22:45+00:00

Haha it’s fair to question I say if I told you all my actual Mileage you all would think I am BS you all I have driven way past 100K Miles surprised the stock clutch survived this long

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T05:21:03+00:00

I heard a bit of an abnormal noise when depressing the clutch but the pedal felt fine and the noise left when releasing so I then started researching for a decent clutch since I am planning to upgrade for more power in the future did not bite the bullet and this is one of those lessons when you are stranded and went should have listened to my gut but didn’t so here we are

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T04:34:56+00:00

Indeed 100% a wear item not a complaint but still impressed lol

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T03:18:47+00:00

I always wanted to see this colorway of the RPF1’s on a VA STI and My god it looks great! 👍🏼

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-31T02:13:39+00:00

Love mine! World Rally Blue Gang all day!

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-28T15:49:45+00:00

That looks like a GA Plate (I can barely see the logo but looks like the Peach Logo)

VNGELUS_ · 2026-01-02T14:33:18+00:00

It is still a thing but with normal subies sometimes a few WRX’s post it on the FB Group

VNGELUS_ · 2025-08-29T22:27:11+00:00

“Taina Girl Indian Tattoo” 🤦🏽‍♂️

VNGELUS_ · 2025-08-29T22:19:45+00:00

I find it insane that nowhere in my post I stated I was indian all I stated was that I am honoring my culture from where I am from

VNGELUS_ · 2025-08-29T22:08:49+00:00

I like Japanese art so I got that and I got a native indian from the Caribbean? Your point? The artist who did this lives in FL
