There's no way I'm getting the front half on jack stands.

well not with that attitude!

Should be able to whip up a makeshift ramp out of some 2x4's that'll give you enough room to get a jack under the car. That's how I got under my low 5th gen when I had it.

If I go down which won't be anytime soon it will be koni's, h&r's, and spacers because I can't go more then ~.5" due to my parents road and driveway (have to check on them 3-5 times a week). I'm asking about the bushings for my case trying to stay near stock but still be somewhat adjustable if needed. But if I have to I'll get LCA's.

If I remember correctly, the Whiteline bushings give you something like 0.75 degrees of camber adjustment, not a lot.

I wouldn't worry too much about correcting the camber if you're only going to lower it 1/2"

Maybe a takeaway for me here is that I need to make WOT a more frequent occurrence

Yeah, every once and a while she needs a good Italian tune up

I feel like people started doing the clutch damper delete a while after I was doing my stint at the 1/4mi track, but I didn't have any issues launching the living shit out of my 5th gen with the damper still installed

With that said, I'd still probably have done the delete on my 5th gen if I still had it. Right around the time I would've installed the 3rd clutch...

lol, that's what I would call it, but the pump still says "E85"

The minimum ethanol content on E85 is usually way below the 85% common sense says it should be. Which is why having a way to test the ethanol content is a must for anyone running E85.

lol, there is actually winter blend E85. Lower ethanol content for easier cold starts. My first tune was on a winter blend with about 68% ethanol. Later in the spring/summer I was able to find another station that had something closer to 90% ethanol and had it retuned for that.

Car still didn't start for shit on the winter blend in freezing temps

Even when the light comes on, there are still at least a couple of gallons in the tank. I also had a pretty aggressive tune, so I wanted to be sure I had as much of the good stuff in there as possible, lol.

Switching between 93/e85 wasn't the worst thing in the world, but I also had two cars, so it was easier to just leave the GT on E85 all summer. But I wouldn't want to switch for just the weekend or something unless I had a flex-fuel setup that could adjust the tune based on the ethanol content. Hopefully the rumors that Cobb is working on something like that are true. The Delicious Tuning setup would be nice, but it's kinda hard for us East coast guys to get out to Cali

If I was going to go through it again, I probably would've gone for the ACT HDG6 instead of the HDSS for my E85 setup.

Don't forget to factor in the cost of injectors and a fuel pump if you're going E85. WBO2 gauge is highly recommended as well.

if it looks something like this, there's a ball joint behind the boot.

Really? the whiteline adjustables that i have on just have a small stiff bushing and they seem to be holding up well, of course they've only been on for 3 months or so.

Hrm, have a pic? All the Whiteline adjustable links that I've seen have at least one ball end on there...

the kart boy endlinks are "the definition of beef". I don't have them (i have white-line adjustables) but i did consider them and they look like they could take any abuse you could think of.

The KB's didn't take his "abuse" too well.

I had a pair of KB's in the rear that had their bushings get all boogered up too. Went back to stock endlinks and was fine. I'd go with the Moogs if I needed a replacement.

For the record do the spacers in that link come with all four corners for 128 or are they 128 each?

looks like they sell them in pairs, so you'd need two of the sets in that link.

Does this AVO CP also relocate the BPV in order to accommodate the WRX BPV options like RacerX?

From the pictures on the link, looks like it has the stock BPV location... Actually the text in the description confirms that. "It is designed to work with the OEM BOV as well, or any aftermarket BOV that fits in the stock location. "

I'm also trying to hatch a plan where I drop it for the summer and then swap all tires and suspension out for an Outback/Forrester setup for the winter to get extra ground clearance. So many options...

Just remember you'll need an alignment every time you swap out the suspension. That was the point I decided to just stick with one ride height all year.

you may hear some clangs under hard cornering or if you hit a bump with one tire not the other but the car will still be driveable....

^this.

I actually have a broken rear endlink on my VW right now. Had a clunk for a month or two, couldn't figure out what it was. Finally got under the car and saw the endlink hanging from the rear swaybar. Still haven't gotten it fixed because I haven't had time to get to the dealership (still under warranty). Other than some extra understeer and the clunk, the car still drives fine.

Ironically this is the first car I've owned in the past 10 years that I haven't autox'd, rallyx'd, or even remotely driven aggressively. Also the first one I can remember that didn't get an upgraded swaybar. And this one breaks an endlink
