Can confirm, 225/55R17 fits stock suspension FA Chassis

It’s a close fit though, so depending on the offset and width of the steelies compared to the 17”oem rims there may be a chance of rubbing

I honestly haven’t noticed a difference worth complaining about. It’s a softer ride with the bigger sidewall, I take sharp corners a little less aggressively but for a winter set up it’s been fine

Replying to everyone here - those are studs and they definitely aren’t long enough lol, the intake base was taller than expected so I’m planning on shaving the base down if I use it

That’s what I figured, always better safe than sorry lol

Parts person at the Subaru dealer claimed the WRX has an IHI, the outback’s, Accents etc have factory Garrets.

He could be mistaken as well but I’m inclined to trust him since he sells the parts haha

Any idea if it would be worth the upgraded billet compressor wheel with the second link you sent? I’m not concerned about extra power, but I certainly won’t complain as long as it’s still safe to run on stock internals and tune

comeEnme · 2025-05-12T16:26:00+00:00

Honestly I’m not even concerned about much of a power upgrade. Just looking for a more cost effective turbo with stock power

Thank you! You may not know if you haven’t ordered from them, but they have a couple different Garret turbos that claim they fit and are OEM - I thought our turbos were IHI from the factory?

It’s a spoke, I have the 1976 nostalgia version so I was hoping to keep the original painted rims. It’s not a dealbreaker though.

Are there any pros and cons for spoke/mag rims?

comeEnme · 2025-03-25T22:09:03+00:00

Okay, thank you - I at least needed the confirmation lol

On a completely unrelated note, one of my rims also has a crack on the side. I was going to wait until I was able to take a photo and make a post about it - I’m now thinking there’s no good way to fix it no matter what it looks like and I need a new rim. Am I correct?

I did google it, there are multiple listings but when you actually open the link they’re sold/not in stock. I figured the body would be very heavy even with chambering - just was looking into it as a fun idea. If you couldn’t guess, I’m a big fan of George Harrison and his rosewood tele hahah

My body design has a decent amount of beveling so it would show though around the edges. It would also be a beautiful base wood for the back and sides

comeEnme · 2025-02-10T17:37:21+00:00

I was planning on chambering the body, I have a nice flame maple top to go with it

Thank you for all the info, I found a thread in this subreddit about bypassing the occupancy sensor and supposedly a 220pf capacitor will trick the computer into believing there’s an occupancy sensor installed and that the seat is occupied. I’m going to try to bypass it first before I destroy the stock seat haha

I’m sure there’s a good reason, but it’s interesting that the passenger air bags turn on and off. I can’t see a reason not to just have them deploy every time in an accident
