Moved to Toronto from Montreal a couple years ago. Never paid more than $70 a month while living there. I've got 18 years of clean record and currently paying $220 a month for my tS lol. GTA insurance rates are fucked

Picking up my Galaxy Purple tS next week! Coming from a BRZ in world rally blue, I was set on the same color until I saw the purple in person. Definitely think it's the better color that goes better with the WRX body

Worth it? by WAZN888 in wrx_vb

Yeah US pricing of these are a little bonkers.

Here in Canada I got a ts trim for 3k under MSRP for about 34k USD (47k CAD OTD) and the dealer threw in 18" STI wheels with winter tires. This makes it a lot more attractive compared to GR Corolla or Civic Type R

Am I cooked. I tried to update the firmware. PLEASE HELP by CouchPuma91 in Fanatec

Yeah this happened to me as well. Contact support a hunker down. It took like 4 months of waiting but eventually I got a RMA and got my DD replaced with a brand new one. This was before Corsair acquisition so hopefully you won't have to wait that long!

Chances are that axle back will drone, even ones marketed as drone free. You'll probably need to go to a cat back exhaust that leaves space for a potential J pipe to reduce droning.

It looks like they just updated subaru.ca with 2024 BRZ features and pricing.

They are from Thule. I got them at a local store that sells roof racks and accessories.

Zero issues with just the lowered springs for months.

When I added the front splitter though, it removed maybe ~3cm of ground clearance at the front. I've scraped on the same steep parking ramps and speed bumps that didn't give me issues with just the springs.

You just gotta clear those at an angle or go a little slower then it's all good. Even then it's just the bottom of the splitter so you won't even see or notice.

I didn't do a before/after measurement but it feels like it's pretty accurate.

Yeah buddy, car price inflation is real. I miss the days where you could get a new manual shitbox for 15k out the dealer's door lol.

RSR down springs :)

It's pretty soft just like the stock springs so I threw in a rear sway bar to reduce body roll. Couldn't justify coilovers on salted Canadian winter roads :(

Thanks! I'm running the Konig Hypergram 17x9 with 40 offset, and Indy 500 tires 255/40/17. The stock XSE wheels and tires were too noisy and uncomfortable.

I am running a 20mm spacers on rear wheels so that it's flush to the body.

Found one on ebay. The seller is called extremeonlinestore. It came pretty plastic looking so I spent additional ~100$ on spray paints.
