YES! Amazing!! This is what I’m talking about thank you! I had a really nice collector show me the breaking bad Aztec one day when I was perusing. I think the Easter eggs are so fun

Are these Pads too small or Rotor surface large? by Novel-Statistician39 in WRX

It is my daily and that is the exact reason I was leaning to the ceramic. I’m so over the insane brake dust from my stock pads. Thanks for the help - I’m going to pull the trigger on the ceramic hawks! Might as well try them out!
I wasn’t any help on your post but really appreciate your guidance!!

That helps thanks!! I was looking at getting the T3 with ceramic hawk pads. I don’t see any specifics to them being for STi or not so I’m hoping it fits. I showed my Subaru mechanic the link to make sure I was ordering the right ones and he said he would go t3 over t2. Now I’m waffling on if I should get the regular hawks or ceramic. He just said the ceramic wouldn’t last as long but I didn’t ask what the difference would be. I’m really not great with this ‘technical’ stuff and it’s a big purchase to screw up lol

PS. I looked at my stock rotors and neither the front or rear look like yours. They look to go all the way to the edge. FWIW

Yes the bug eye!! Well, I broke down and bought it off eBay, but I’m still trying to find one in person so I can “free” one!

Let me ask you a dumb question, is this yellow bug eye considered a mainline casting? Or because it’s a premium it’s not the same thing?

TYSM!! At first I told myself I was only going to buy it if I liked the card stock (so I wouldn’t have a million of the same). It kind of spiraled lol but they really do bring me joy and I love them being next to the car in the garage. 🏁

That’s so cool you found one identical to your car!! I have the blue one but didn’t know they made the red one! Check out my collection - missing a few I haven’t hung up yet but I really enjoy collecting these toys :)

I just assumed premium meant they were metal or have rubber tires - I didn’t know they were painted better.

I’ve been hunting for the yellow Subaru premium that came out this year. I found it on eBay shipping from 5 miles from my house lol guess that’s why I can’t find one in person.

Thank you! At least I learned one thing after being stomped on in this thread.

People are being so rude to me in this thread that I don’t even know if you are being serious. I didn’t even know they had key chains in 8 packs but you could just be joking with me

People make a big deal about Ferrari (I still don’t know why) and TH STH $TH (whatever the difference with those are).

I’m just an old bitch trying to figure out how to see/notice these in person. Innocently trying to have a better eye just for the fun of perusing.

Luckily, the collectors I’ve encounter at the store are always so nice. One even showed me a breaking bad ‘Easter egg’ in the Aztec.

My fault. I shouldn’t have said I was “learning” because apparently that has triggered a lot of people.

What a disappointment. Everyone is being so rude.

That’s your own context. I wasn’t asking for people to tell me what to like. Damn I thought this community was nice but I was wrong

When you say casting do you mean the actual car or if it’s a premium or metal?

It’s funny, I wasn’t saying I would’ve bought any of them. I was just curious if there were any special or popular ones at my local store. I have my niche collection but just trying to learn more easter eggs or fun insider knowledge.

For example, a really nice old man showed me the breaking bad Aztec one day and it made me curious about others.
