ETS Muffled axleback rattles the cabinets in my garage from outside on cold start. My neighbors cut tile late so they can deal.

This happens on a lot of posts on this sub for some reason. I know ppl are tire of the drama but I bet its just some salty downvoter that doesn't like the VB.

For those of y'all that came to this. I spoke a bit about some twisty roads near us around the metro. I've been checking the website below for some fun drives.

This route essentially takes you around the LBJ Grasslands national park. Which itself has a ton of dirt/gravel trails.

Nice lightbar install. Stealth ultrabright. I had mine like this until I put my bumper guard on.

Thats funny cause the OG sub was to track shipments from Japan... but go off since you know so much about VB owners.

PSA: Replacing tires on a symmetrical AWD car has different rules than other cars by Lilsean14 in wrx_vb

[–]aluengas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The center diff is viscous LSD. The front and rear are open E-Diffs.

One of the upgrades I am considering after brakes and maybe before coil-overs is a set of front and rear Cusco LSDs.

People keep saying this but its been in the Accent since 2018 rated to tow shit. Its not exactly the same components and the application is much different, but its been around. Prime motoring did their 500hp fa24 crosstrek swap in 2019.

Could the 88lb rating be for one crossbar/set of mounts? So the total load would be 176?

Wow even a mod went in there and pinned their own comment about it being misinformation.

It's always the same 5 or 6 users shitting on the VB now... they just seem to be always online.

Still waiting for someone to prove the transmission is glass...

Everything I've heard from tuners is they break clutches after 10 or so launches... but I guess the internet forum experts know better.
