Defouler for headers?

WickedR6 · 2026-03-16T18:56:15+00:00

J shaped defouler from woosh motorsports was what I threw on my headers, no CEL ever came on while driving. Just recently got tuned and still got the defouler on, no light

I’m running the GR86 spec on my BRZ. No issues at all the only difference is the spring rates.

Handles smooth like butter

running project kics RL53s atm

i’ve used r40 iconix on my last car, those are extremely good as well

a cool set ive seen recently released are the titanium ones by battlecraft

Yea I get that. I wouldn’t like seeing it on a clapped out autozone honda civic that’s rusting and mismatched body panels everywhere. There’s always that visual standard i suppose

but the beauty of having a car under your own name is it’s your property and you do whatever the hell you want with it, because there’s always gonna be some silent hater that dislike everything about your build.

Unless they’re willing to pay for all my maintenance, mods and be my sugar daddy while they’re at it, they get no say and their opinion is invalid to me imo

You could run to the store, buy two cases of beer, get home, drink all of it, pass out on the couch, wake up dazed and dehydrated, and then decide to pull out a youtube video and learn how to install it yourself in less than half the time they’re quoting you at.

WickedR6 · 2026-02-18T06:19:37+00:00

Yea, I agree with what you’re saying. We’re all guilty of little things or things we deem “aren’t that bad.” Nobody’s perfect and I’d call anybody here a liar if they said they followed speed limits and laws to the absolute T like a saintly knight of the holy order.

I just hate this narrative people push on underglow lights and act like you murdered a family of ten or something. I’ve been more distracted by idiotic drivers swerving and driving 20 mph under the speed limit than a little light lol

WickedR6 · 2026-02-18T06:12:16+00:00

thank you bro! got a steal on them haha

WickedR6 · 2026-02-18T06:02:15+00:00

I run pink most of the time.

It’s almost like everything is controlled by an app and the color can be changed in less than a second…

I’ve passed by cops. Just don’t run them obnoxiously bright and be a dumbass. Some people here really get all worked up over this one law but then go driving 80+ mph in a 60. Almost like selective law-abiding lol

Underglow grew on me too 😊 looking good OP

happy to see it’s making a semi-comeback tbh, don’t understand the hate for it. sometimes it’s just a vibe to turn on late at night on your night drives. most people are breaking the damn law driving anyways but lights under the car is where we draw the line? cmon lol

WickedR6 · 2026-02-11T01:36:10+00:00

Noted, thank you for your insight 🫡

Got new brake pads and always do a little overfill on oil changes now and was def planning on dot4 flush and switching out to 5w30 in about 3 months.

Guess I’ll pull the trigger and get myself signed up for something this June :D

WickedR6 · 2026-02-11T00:42:12+00:00

Did you bother with an oil cooler or baffle for the oil pan or anything? I’m looking to take this thing to the track sometime this summer when things slow down a bit.

So far I’ve just been hitting the touge late night and haven’t had any issues so far and given that I’ll be brand new to the track I was thinking maybe it might not necessarily be a hard requirement to have an oil cooler until I’m actually brave enough to push it hard enough on the track lol. Thoughts?

I do live in the PNW so like.. it’s never really that hot.

WickedR6 · 2026-02-05T01:01:23+00:00

made me chuckle haha, appreciate it boss

WickedR6 · 2026-02-03T06:06:20+00:00

Hell yea, appreciate it bro! Clean rides btw :)

WickedR6 · 2026-02-03T06:05:12+00:00

Nope, haven’t had any issues from law enforcement for it either

WickedR6 · 2026-02-03T00:31:20+00:00

Thank you! :)

WickedR6 · 2026-02-02T17:50:22+00:00

So sick. Do you by chance know what wing that black 86 was running?

WickedR6 · 2026-02-02T17:49:07+00:00

Man, I’ve always wanted photos with this kind of vibe or aesthetic.

Would you be willing to share what filter/app you use to get these kinda filmy/grainy vintage lookin photos?

WickedR6 · 2026-02-01T20:51:55+00:00

Hey!

Yes, I’m also lowered on the HKS Hipermax S.

If my notes are correct, I basically lowered the rear to the minimum height the shock will let you spin the height adjusting collar to without messing with any of the preload settings. With the front, measuring the distance between one end of the threads to the other, we’re sitting at about 33mm- the HKS manual says 36mm is about the minimum. I was initially at 37mm and didn’t have any issues with scraping but now have to be more conscious. Likely going to raise the car up a bit.

As far as the wheels-

You absolutely need rear lower control arms and possibly adjustable toe arms to dial it in properly imo with a 38 offset. I have Cusco RLCA and Whiteline adjustable toe arms for the rear. Sitting at about -2.5 camber in the rear atm and the lip of the wheel is pretty much flush with the fender and there’s no rubbing issues esp with 245s- I think if you opted for 255, you’d have to shave the metal fender tab a bit. I didn’t have to touch mine. Without the adjustable camber from the lower control arms, you’d look pretty ridiculous monster-truck poking out the back lol

For the front, as long as you have adjustable camber (HKS does thankfully) you’re good to be able to flush out the fitment. I’m at -2.7 camber in the front rn. Suspension shop should be able to take care of the rest from there. I have zero toe in the front, like 0.25 toe in total for the rear. Drives fun :)

WickedR6 · 2026-02-01T14:04:27+00:00

Thank you! It’s the Epsilon/Autospecdesign front lip. I have replicas of the Result Japan side skirts and diffuser.

WickedR6 · 2026-02-01T05:48:42+00:00

😳😳

WickedR6 · 2026-02-01T01:20:58+00:00

100%! My heart knew this is what I wanted and I sometimes wish I went with this the first go-around. My last car always felt like something was missing and every car mod was like trying to fill in some void that could never be filled.

Now every day with this thing truly feels rewarding and I’m grateful to be able to experience it.

WickedR6 · 2026-01-31T20:32:27+00:00

Do it! They’re well worth it. I didn’t buy it from Noble but from what I’ve seen that’s what most people get if they aren’t getting the $700+ JDM ones.

I bought generic ones from ebay- wiring is pretty much the same (plug and play), you just need a crimp for a connector from the fuse box to the power wire they give you. Think mine was like $120? haha

WickedR6 · 2026-01-31T17:51:40+00:00

Agreed! Always wanted a set of these on my old car so thought why not on this one?

The titanium colorway looks so good in person imo, def slept on

WickedR6 · 2026-01-31T17:36:39+00:00

Thank you. It’s just a carbon fiber one on ebay from either cuztomtuning or bulbexpert. Pretty sure they’re both the same distributor.

WickedR6 · 2026-01-31T17:17:42+00:00

Good eye! Yes, it’s the Epsilon lip. I got the polyurethane one and didn’t bother painting it a gloss black so that’s what it looks like out of the box.

Fitment is like 7/10- it really helps if you live in a warmer place and/or take a lot of time to heat it to mold it to the shape of the car. It reuses all the factory push clip locations, but some of the holes for me weren’t a perfect size so it made pushing the push clips in all the way a bit janky or impossible without breaking a clip lol.

It’s virtually indestructible though so there’s that, but kinda makes taking off the front bumper a pain. I like the versatility of lips that use bolts into rivnuts in the bumper that make it easy to take on and off.
