Anyone else see the driveshaft mod that was going around on FB? It was some sort of housing that attaches to the existing support, and the company was starting a group buy for like $230. https://www.jxbperformance.com/products/subaru-legacy-bl/bp-4th-gen-driveshaft-center-support-bearing-carrier-upgrade

Those Prodrives are niiiice, def look like US wagon fit. Please buy them shralp, you deserve them

The general advice is to stick as close to OEM as possible, but you’ll want to avoid new OEM prices. Look for a rebuilder that offers OEM core exchanges. Last time I did it was many years ago, but I used CVJ Axles and had a great experience. Or rebuild it yourself.

CryoTune performance. Dave’s(?) been an active tuner/member on the forum for a decade. I follow his social media, I think he has his own shop now and does a lot of nice work by the looks of it.

I looked at a couple part diagrams, but couldn’t figure it out for sure

Can I buy that one and try to make it work for my EDM console?

If I ever get pulsing or issues with my brakes that I can’t explain, I’ll do a handful of aggressive stops and cool offs like I’m bedding them again, and they’re normal.

Stock air intake is likely the best option until you get well into tuning for power. B8 are for lowering I’m pretty sure, and B6 is for a stock spring. I’m not sure which strut category fits the pink springs best, but yes there’s a transmission and wagon option for front and back pink springs. I’m using Koni struts and H&R springs with a rear spacer, although I’ll probably remove the spacer next time I’m in there.

Wait till Johnny gets a look at this I’d ditch the cold air intake you mentioned and go back to stock intake. Otherwise you’re on a great path with the things you’ve mentioned. Wait till you get those sway bars and mounts installed, it’ll be a whole new car (might consider getting new endlinks too). And JDM pink springs lower minimally, but paired with new bilstein struts, you’ll have a very competent and fun wagon.

I changed over to STi rear parking brake shoes when I did my Brembo conversion. Not the most fun job, but provided me an opportunity to update/replace a lot of the rusty brake components back there. RockAuto has cheap rear parking brake hardware kits.

200k!

200,013 miles! Very proud moment for me today, such an unbelievable car..

With less than 55k miles!

Very nice! I got to drive @Code’s LGT the other day, and daaayum it’s fun. AVO BB turbo with about 380whp and STi 6mt.

My only critique is their weight too. I’d love a set for my Forester, but it’s slow enough.

You say “smoke”. If it didn’t smell and it dissipated quickly then it probably wasn’t, and I bet it was water vapor. Any idea when your cabin filter was last changed?

If you’d split the strut top bars I’d likely take the rear one, but I’d need shipping

I have a set of them I don’t need. Cut and drilled, fully refinish, ready for install. I’ll PM you a pic shortly.

Thanks bro! Steering wheel is I think from an 08 STi, bought it from another member here and he wasn’t sure. I haven’t seen many like it bc of the blank/black trim pieces, but I really like it too. Much better condition than my OE momo wheel. Had to trim the back cover to fit cruise control, but easy fix

I have an 05 LGT head unit with Jazzy aux installed that I’d sell, and I just threw away a parrot BT adapter kit for it too. Was using an iPod myself until about 2 years ago when I moved to the JDM DD. JDM DD is soooo much better, sorry

I’d love to buy just the rear trailing arms, but I doubt you’re looking to split the kit. Lmk otherwise

Couple updates pics, and I’m getting very close the 200k club with 199,900 miles on the odo!

Two beers for John next ECM!

Pretty excited to get this installed, and I’ll finally be able to put my Perrin UP blanket to good use

Mines probably a little more hooked up, but man do I love another wagon
