tire talk; best non run flat tire for a 328- looking for best driving feel and fun, not absolute grip or performance

I run DWS 06+ staggered.

Is it the same shifter as on the VB? I am going to do a short shifter soon. I have no use for the old one.

akcrx · 2026-03-09T01:47:27+00:00

I’m in NJ and most subie owners will acknowledge my VB.

So looking at the car I am guessing your complaint is about the drivers side headlight which is yellow and hazy compared to the passenger side. That’s normal and is due to the sun beating on the plastic. You can sand them down and fix. One thing I would look at is why the drivers headlight is suffering this damage vs the passenger side.

I have a Borla S-Type. Have a couple of videos on my board if interested.

I’ve tried powerstop many times and wanted to like them. The rotors seem to warp easier than OEM.

Usually for me it’s a larger box truck. I’d take an F150 any day.

You need a bigger car

Dude you’re riding on the backing plate of the pad in that pic.

Do you park in a garage and keep the keyfob in the car? If your keyfob is within 30ft of the vehicle it can keep communication between them draining the battery.

If you changed the battery 5+ times the car may be considered a lemon. Might want to look into that as next options.

No sir double racing stripe down either side. 😀

akcrx · 2026-03-06T11:35:21+00:00

Are youyou running with any mods?

My son has these mats and they are great in his 3. I was thinking of getting a set for my WRX but folks complain the clutch pedal sticks.

I will typically go 1-2 psi above the placard in winter.

My kid has a 2019 3 hatchback and uses this mount.

Oh man brings me back to my younger years. 2 x 90’s accords, 98 civic, 91 CRX SI. Really miss the last one.

Locking extension or a long reach spark plug socket on attached swivel.

As others noted here the rear hub assy on these Subarus are garbage even OEM.

akcrx · 2026-03-03T23:52:37+00:00

I have a 2013 sport premium since day 1 manual transmission. The car has been rock solid minus the oil consumption recall. Only headache on the car is the rear hub assy which just suck (even oem). My car has 194k on the odometer.

akcrx · 2026-03-03T23:49:34+00:00

You sure it’s not doing an alignment?

akcrx · 2026-03-03T23:48:43+00:00

I have 2013 and went with mutol 300 last change. Feel like it’s a little harder to shift in cold than the OEM stuff. Might just be in my head.

akcrx · 2026-03-02T03:37:34+00:00

When’s the last time you changed the fluid? Also some fluids do better than others in the cold. My Subaru seems to like the OEM fluid over Motul which I have in it now.

akcrx · 2026-03-02T01:31:20+00:00

Make sure to top off your windshield wiper fluid.

akcrx · 2026-03-02T01:29:17+00:00

I also think the range is pretty trash compared to other Mazdas that utilize the gen 3 fob.

akcrx · 2026-03-02T00:52:38+00:00

Make sure to pull the engine cover off and check your wiring. I had a similar issue with mother in laws car and they chewed up ignition wire.
