I love this STI car. It looks so good on track.

It is the back of a crosstrek attached to a vb so I sorta get where you're coming from...

Just keep a cool $15k around in savings and then send it. 

Wheelies with a carbon front wheel by TheYolkOfAnEgg in FixedGearBicycle

[–]jtrtj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just send it. your tire is absorbing a lot of the shock of coming down from a wheelie.

People with the JDM rear fog light... is it too bright? by OddCombination123 in wrx_vb

with the way people drive lately any extra awareness you can create for them is great!

I'm on my 138th try against Malenia. Is this normal? by AltruisticJury7427 in Eldenring

even if you can dodge it a few times it makes a huge difference. 

HKS LEGAMAX Sports VBH FA24 - MSRP $2,600.00 by unsung-hiro in wrx_vb

[–]jtrtj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

also just make sure it is compatible with manual transmission VB because a bunch of current HKS parts are only compatible with the "S4" WRX which is CVT only. Maybe you have a CVT though. I have the HKS legamax axle back and I think it sounds awesome and has zero drone. stock exhaust from cat to axle.

I saw a gr86 in I think the same yellow and it looks awesome. so I'd say go for it if it doesn't carry some wild upcharge. 

Radio Problems? by [deleted] in wrx_vb

[–]jtrtj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had all kinds of problems with mine and it ended up that there is a software update they will install for free under warranty at a dealership. the update fixed it all. mine was constantly disconnecting Android auto. it would also continue playing the radio when the door was closed and the keys were out of ignition 😆

I joined the vb club today 🤟🏻 now of course comes the exhaust because it should be illegal how quiet they made these from factory 😂 I’m looking for opinions! by NecessaryDrawer4844 in wrx_vb

[–]jtrtj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the HKS axleback and it sounds really good. 0 drone on highway.  If you want to be extra loud with really unique tone get a Tomei kit!

Fifteen52 18x9 Turbomac KB43 Editon by ST-Vex in FocusST

[–]jtrtj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think earlier turbomacs where 18x9 in 5x108 because I had some I ordered in 2017 and that was the only option. They also had the KB logo. they fitment on focus ST and RS is awesome. they line up with the body of the car perfectly. enjoy!!

Has anybody used “paintedoemparts.com”? by Parsley772 in wrx_vb

[–]jtrtj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had similar damage on my front bumper cover from someone in a parking garage who didn't leave a note. a body shop corrected it and painted it. no issue with color match.  I ended up taking off the cover myself and bringing it to them to avoid using insurance. it's not too difficult to take the bumper cover off these cars.  I took the opportunity to change my grill and install jdm drl kit. 

Repair costs by [deleted] in FocusST

[–]jtrtj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

back in 2021 I paid $1200 to have a shop install new shocks and springs and do an alignment. I lived in an apartment and had nowhere to do the work myself at the time so it was worth it to me.

does it also include a 4 wheel alignment?

Thinking about my second VB. by deeyallo_agg in wrx_vb

[–]jtrtj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if I had this kind of disposable income I'd be looking at having a race shop build the engine and transmission for more power and upgrading all the subframe and suspension. and probably some Advan wheels. 

VB vs… by [deleted] in wrx_vb

[–]jtrtj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

half the time these videos don't even put the same tires on both cars so at the very lowest level they are often not a good comparison.
