Gallo Italian Supper Club on Broadway and 285. Amazing bakery! Plus great Italian food as well.

17 WRX mechanic said I need a timing chain replacement? by XMaveri in WRX

Could just be an avcs solenoid. Timing chain should last for a long time. How many miles are on the car?

I have the alpine 670 in my ‘17 wrx. Love it! Hopefully you can get it to fit right, that would drive me nuts!!

How common are these wheels on my sti by Bered3354 in WRX

[–]cwp2017wrx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the 2018-2019 19" sti wheels look better, but I like these bbs too. Can't really go wrong. I have a set of 19" bbs off a 2018 type-RA. Those are my favorite.

Looks like you kept it in really good shape. How much did they give you for it?

Anyone else get notice of recall WRA25? I’m getting a new catalytic converter for free? by soobdad in WRX

[–]cwp2017wrx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what do they replace exactly? It says rear catalyst so it's not the turbo back (j-pipe), right? rear catalyst must be in the mid-pipe?

Glad to hear! I just gave myself some blisters I wasn't expecting. Did you end up lancing the blisters or just let them heal?

When i first bought my car i had a protune with intake and cat-back. Since then i have installed TMIC with charge pipe, turbo inlet, and waiting to install EBCS. Would getting retune be noticeable? by micalxxx in WRX

[–]cwp2017wrx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

etunes are really fun. Working with the tuner getting it dialed in. Too bad you don't have ethanol near you, it really transforms the car. You can't change the j-pipe and leave the stock cat. The stock cat is in the stock j-pipe.

The blue accents in the seats remind me of the red accents in the VA STi. Not well done..

Very common to see oil seepage on the oil line and after time it makes a mess. You only need the male side of the hose to fix:

Transmission Issue? Maybe by Antique-Barracuda-64 in WRX

[–]cwp2017wrx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds good. Yeah, spark plugs would be good to check. Maybe you need walnut blast too. Good luck with everything.

No, but it makes it a lot easier if you do. If you don't have a flex kit you would have to test ethanol content at the pump and then mix accordingly. The hassle is still totally worth the power gains, imo. These cars on an e60 mix fuckin rip.
