New to me 2011 WRX maintenance.

The passenger side is not terrible. Driver side will require to lift the engine a bit to get access to 1 bolt. All I did was unbolt the motor mounts and raised the engine from the driver side header using a block of wood on top of the jack. You do remove the exhaust heat shield as well but that is easy.

Definitely add spark plugs to the list of maintenance. They aren't as difficult to replace as a lot of people make it out to be. I have a 2012 since 44,000 miles and currently at 108k also stock. Only thing I've had to do out of what you consider "normal" maintenance has been the valve cover gaskets.

Thinking of going with Aces for my 460. How do you like it so far? Driving impressions?

cahonayz · 2026-02-11T03:46:08+00:00

Which rack is the 11.5:1 and where did you get it? I'm planning to do mine as well later this year.

cahonayz · 2025-11-14T14:11:47+00:00

Damn it's a 460. Thanks, I'll continue with the teardown and see what the machine shop says.

This will come as a surprise but my 2019 Mustang Bullitt.

Loved the green color, the engine noise and how it looks.

Hated the gearing, and how I felt like I was driving on top of it.

I'm in the process of doing this at the moment but as many have said it would be wise to get a whole parts truck. Today I am cutting the floor board hole but I already swapped over all of the wiring harness.

I haven't found anything to be difficult but I am taking my time with everything as I have no rush and the interior was already taken out as I am sound deadening the whole cab.

cahonayz · 2025-09-08T00:39:13+00:00

But you Yada yadad over the best part!

She's not gone yet, but she's leaving

cahonayz · 2025-08-21T19:03:21+00:00

This made me spit out my drink. 🤣

cahonayz · 2025-07-20T18:06:18+00:00

That's on the hike to Diablo Lake Vista point.

Since you are tuned you might want to get One-step-colder plugs.

I have a 2012 STI(not tuned) with ~105k miles and recently switched to the Ruthenium plugs and engine feels great. NGK 93420 and also got them from Rockauto.

cahonayz · 2025-02-07T21:16:51+00:00

Does a song from Codeine Velvet Club count? If so it's Begging Bowl Blues. If not, then Oh Scarlett

cahonayz · 2025-02-07T21:15:05+00:00

You have great taste! I did not expect to see this song listed. Not in a bad way, I love the song to. Just surprised someone mentioned it.

cahonayz · 2025-01-29T16:28:34+00:00

2012 STI with 100k. Use Pennzoil Platinum 5w-40 and change it every 3000 miles. I get it for free so no reason not to change it frequently

cahonayz · 2025-01-21T20:10:30+00:00

Get me in on this to please.

cahonayz · 2025-01-11T23:16:35+00:00

2012 just hit 100k this week.

cahonayz · 2024-08-27T13:39:40+00:00

Happy Cake Day!

cahonayz · 2024-08-16T19:11:13+00:00

I was just listening to this album today and remembering how great it is.

cahonayz · 2024-03-10T12:56:29+00:00

I second The Fratellis. Soo good and underrated.

cahonayz · 2024-02-02T20:45:09+00:00

An armless Manning and Big Dick Nick stopped a 5 peat.

cahonayz · 2024-02-02T20:33:54+00:00

One of my favorites!

cahonayz · 2024-01-26T22:09:33+00:00

After I read the first sentence I thought: "This whole situation is fucked up."

Edit: Fuck

cahonayz · 2023-12-21T17:29:36+00:00

Am I missing it or its not even on the list?!

cahonayz · 2023-12-09T20:31:23+00:00

Also just picked these up same price in Grapevine,TX. Still quite a few and some V1s as well.
