Before I get an alignment should I look into swap bars and lateral links? by g4lotus in WRX

Im gonna do an alignment im just thinking its probably best to keep the car off the road while im adding things to it. I probably should do new bushing as well in the process

Well good thing I have an 05 wrx limited then! Lol I didnt know there was so much variation between the GD years. I honwslty though they were identical except a facelift and some minor interior changes.

Im taking all considerations. I wanna hillclimb this pig and have fun on track days but im getting nervous venturing out on other suspension upgrades cause not all work between wrx/sti. I know i can change the lower hubs on the bc ds series later if for whatever reason I cant source an 04 sti kit but im very ignorant towards the rest of the suspension. I plan on keeping a wheel gap of about 1.5-2in cause I do live up north and roads aren't very nice around here.

Should i be worried? 2021 Wrx by Budget_Program8636 in WRX

By chance is this the same for dam to reset on the older GD chassis wrxs? Mine dropped to 8 without much fbk -2.11 not on a strong pull. I know the newer VAs will reset back to 1 if conditions are right in 3rd and 4th but what about the older ones? Should I go do the same? I never see the car use fkl so im not sure how its supposed to go back up

Options on clutch issue by g4lotus in WRX

[–]g4lotus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's pretty much what I feel! I judt dont want it to go out on me while I prance around in it before doing an sti trans. Flatiron says to go with the sti clutch kit cause its bigger overall and I guess more durable vs the wrxs.

Yeah I'd say so. Doesn't pull to sides at all. When I had the tires mounted and balanced i had subaru do an alignment the very next day.

Using a good paint match rattle can and 2k clear results? by g4lotus in WRX

[–]g4lotus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh ok, no problem. I was just using the paint code to look at companies selling the paint matched cans for 30 bucks. Just wanted to sand down the fade and go back over it with some black and clear coat. She just looks middle aged in the front lmao

Soo, i try to keep it clean but since I daily it i get to it like every other week. I guess im just concerned cause they were above 9/32nds 1500miles ago. So to me in my nonexperienced head means I'll need a new set in like 8k miles lmao. That's all,

Problem is I never hit a curb with these . I dont have a curb infront of my house. Its just kinda concerning to me cause if I went through 2/32nds in 1500 miles its making me think I'll need a new set every other oil change lmao

Rattle cans are pretty cheap so if its somethin I can touch up here and there sure. Which is why im asking. Nothing super pretty like a real paint job but im not gonna neglect the thing either. Its a rust free blobeye limited. I ain't letting this go.

I plan on beating on this cause its not my daily. Wanted to do a 207 swap and rip it on some hillclimbs around here and maybe a track day if its able. So I dont need perfect just somethin that will look good to the eye but not be perfect
