Dark-V

In for the next batch. have money in hand. Glad there is a good, cheap solution that's way better than any of the FM transmitters you can buy in the stores. Need paypal information once these go back on sale please!

8/15 around 8:30am: Blue with possibly exhaust getting on Rte.2 from I95 north. I was getting on I95 south RIGHT as you got onto Rte.2 West. 8/15 around 5pm: black, tinted, debadged, and possibly exhaust driving northbound on I95 between Rte 9 and Rte 2. You passed me and I stayed behind.

Haha ya, that's my father. I knew it must have been him so I linked him to the thread! Still think it's hilarious that his stock LGT gets spotted more than mine!

If someone has the RX lenses, compare it to these ones: http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4321&highlight=lens They don't have the TSX lenses, but you could also find some clear replica's on eBay for fairly cheap.

That's true... Fred Bean sells the SpecB LCA's for $570 and on SubaruParts.com, the 08+ STI LCA's are $236 each. That'd be great if all those parts worked together.

I was poking around my local Subaru dealership, and checked out their SPT/STi catalog and noticed the "STi transmission mount". I googled the part number, and lo and behold, it's the Group N trans mount. I wonder if the STI LCA bushing is the same as the Group N. The local dealer didn't have the '08+ STI LCA bushings either...

No, just the 2 rear ones. I've already bought a full set of stock bushings because my rears are torn to shit, but once I get enough cash to mod more of my suspension, I'm definitely going to get the Group N bushings. It's like OEM performance parts from Japan!

Vacation Pics. Also, contacted RalliSpec, they quoted me $118 shipped on both group N bushings... Cheaper than any urethane bushings I've seen.

Where can you purchase the Group N rear bushing for the front LCA? Looking at RalliSpec's website they only seem to have the "STi GpN Front Control Arm Front Bushing". The rest are rear bushings or swaybar bushings.

Now we need to be VERY careful with this... Which bushing in the Front Lower Control Arm are we talking about? Front or rear (both in the front LCA). I made the mistake of ordering the front bushing when my rear bushing was torn. Here is a picture for reference. http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r175/Dark-V/FrontLCA.jpg Now is this the group N rear LCA bushing? or the smaller front one? Also, RalliSpec sells them for the 08+ STI: http://rallispec.com/prod_chart_stibush3.htm If it's the rear bushing in the front LCA, which one do I order!?

*Deep breath* Black 3.0R in the Shaws parking lot in Keene, NH Black LGT on the way to Lebabon, Rte 5/10/12 (drove to Lebanon twice over the weekend) GRP wagon on Rte 2 headed east around 495. Another LGT (cant remember the color for the life of me) in Winchendon. I've never seen so many LGTs (3.0R's count for me) in a weekend.

GRP Wagon LGT going West on rte 9 in MA. Guy was wearing sunglasses.

Spotted 2 LGTs on Tuesday. #1 was on Rte 9 westbound, black w/ tint in the morning. #2 was going southbound on I93 at around 1:30am this morning. White with red graphics and logos. And the mounts for a wing. This one was VERY odd to me. Passed me going about 80, saw it was a LGT so I went to catch up and he slowed down. Seemed like he was avoiding me. Very weird. Definitely didn't want to race or anything. By the way, you have a headlight out.

White LGT Wagon. BBS's and what seemed to be lowered. Driving into Arlington from Rte 2 via Dow Ave. I think I know who it was, but wanted to confirm... Unclemat and/or wife?

Bingo! That's me. No aftermarket exhaust yet. Gutted the first DP cat and aftermarket uppipe. Going for full aftermarket DP this spring. Are you a student, staff or faculty? There is an undergrad here that has a modded 5eat on campus too.

Just another pop in from me. Another 1000 miles on the fluid and it's still shifting great. Been a bit chilly around here in the morning, high 40's low 50's usually. A tad bit stiff for the first shift, but that's just the fluid getting moving.

Well, this morning it was 45 degrees out when I left for work. The tranny felt better this morning than it did yesterday morning with the stock fluid. So far so good!

Just popping in bumping this thread. Last night I changed my transmission with WalMart Supertech 75w90 Semi Synthetic gear oil and boy did it make a difference in shifting! The overall shifting is smoother, the gears go in smoother and the synchros do their job faster. I really like it now! I don't know where Roby is from, but I'm up in New England so this winter will really show how it does in the cold. Plus at $4.something a quart, I couldn't go wrong! I'll chime in with any issues or status down the road.

Well, proud new owner of an '05 Silver LGT 5MT Arlington, MA!
