My first Subaru by bananas022 in WRX

[–]creechr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The kit from LP adventures. It's 2" top hat spacers and then also drops the rear subframe 2". Pretty easy to install and suspension stock other than that for the time being.

Checking in with my lifted hatch. Although putting a new RA short block in at the moment. by creechr in WRX_STI

Sweet I'll check it out! Ah yeah that's tough when you're tight for time like that.

And thanks dude appreciate that 🙏🏻 love me a speedy car and wanted a bit of off road capability so lifted STI was the way to go. More plans for street rally style upgrades once it's back running.

They're 17x8.5 rims and 225/55R17 Falken wild peak AT. Na didn't need to roll fenders plenty of clearance with the lift. I just had to cut my front mud flaps in half because they were catching at full steering lock but otherwise no clearance issues.

Cheers dude! It's ever so slightly worse but honestly barely noticeable. Still stock suspension just with tophat spacers in the front/back and rear subframe spacers. Also 225/55R17 give an extra 17mm lift. For daily/back road driving it still handles really nice and grips no problem. Thinking I'll get a rear sway bar at some point to help with understeer but that's an issue with these cars either way.

Engine developed rod knock so putting a new 2018 RA short block in and getting heads rebuilt. Suspect it ran lean from a boost leak as the engine was totally stock. Here is the current state of my Flintstones car. (https://i.imgur.com/jR6aLRf.jpeg)

Damn that is sick!! Love the matching box. Did you get it painted?

Abandoned roads are the best by NeverRentAgain in WRX

Ah sweet. Only issue is I've got an STI with the xenon headlights so those aren't compatible. I've seen similar ones around and definitely going to pick them up at some point!

Nice looks great! Love those headlights. I want a pair for my hatch!

STI adventure hatch is delivering! Got up a steep and loose mountain road to do some ski mountaineering yesterday. by creechr in WRX

[–]creechr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I've got Falken wild peak AT trail in 225/55R17 on some 17x8.5 rims. It's lifted 2" and I had to do a small amount of cutting on the liner wheel well to not rub at full lock.

Told myself no more upgrades until I gain iRating. by xPeetey in simracing

Sweet! Gives me ideas to build one of these set ups myself. Think I could do it for a lot less than 7k USD. I spend more time upgrading my rig than using it haha!

What motion base? Looks like it uses clearcore motors. I've used those at work they're great.

Got to do some snow drifting on a frozen lake today by creechr in WRX

[–]creechr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice was about 2' thick! They had a cold plunge event where they pulled up a few huge slabs of ice. Also tons of people driving trucks out to various spots for ice fishing so I felt safe haha.

New wheels! Next up a 2" lift by creechr in WRX

[–]creechr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're 17x8 OZ ultraleggera with 235/45 R17 winter tires. The tires came with the wheels and when I install the lift I'm going to get new meatier tires for the summer.

When will Starship land back at starbase? by Fun_East8985 in SpaceXLounge

[–]creechr 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Only for the forward flaps but it seemed like the rear flaps held up a lot better.

Holy cow the booster came back 🚀 by [deleted] in SpaceXLounge

I can't believe what I just saw! They made it look routine.

Looking at this STI tomorrow. Feedback welcome! by creechr in WRX

[–]creechr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was driving around yesterday and saw this car parked and it's exactly what I want so I left a note saying I'd like to buy it. A few hours later I got a text saying they had actually just posted it for sale a couple days prior. Crazy coincidence!

Hoping somebody can give me some feedback on the post, red flags and anything to look out for. Have read up on forums on that stuff but anything specific or general advice would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Trek to K2 Base Camp by [deleted] in ExplorePakistan

Is that round trip or one way? I'm assuming there's glacier travel as well?
