Just ordered H&R 3.6r springs and front and rear koni's. Now just top hats, cover, spring seat and donors (courtesy of Dgoodhue maybe) or KYB's. I may sit a half inch higher but shit, the ride I'm sure will be night and day compared to coils.

Awesome!!! I measured front only as rear coilovers are toast ATM. 13.5" from center hub to top of fender. And yes, keep me posted on other goodies!

So now LGT or 3.6r H&R's. 3.6r's will be a bit stiffer but prob not a huge difference here

Ok so Teins are out. I want to do this right so H&R appears to be the good choice here. Looks like I'll need oem dust covers and spring seats too to complete the build. Found Konis $699 shipped so far. Please advise if found cheaper as I will too. Thank you Joe for taking time to help

Just read through this entire thread and chuckled a little coming across this haha!! Well, I'm diving in after BC's are blown out in the rear and I'm done with coils all together. I think this is a good compromise: Koni 8610-1453s fronts Koni 8010-1055s rears White line KCA409 front mounts Tein SKS92-AUB00 springs drop 1.8" f 1.6"r Spring rate 218lbs/in. front 241lbs/in. rear NEED DONORS!! Please PM me Joe, do you have any donors laying around?? If I missed anything on the parts list, please advise.

Mine came today, $10 shipped to anyone who doesn't receive one

LEXX has another set of 08+ Brembos over on NASIOC. Look to be in great shape! Tell him wrxwhit sent you for good pricing! http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2799079 Scroll down to second ones from the bottom as of now http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160927/4e2f7ac3e76470278704c212bbcf96fe.png

Very mean and clean, very well done for sure!!!!

So according to my math and guesstimating not including any modifications I have made, my car has only depreciated roughly 5k from when I purchased in 2011 haha!!

Wow, $300 is the cheapest I've ever seen. Reputable??!

I used a Mity Vac self bleeder which was super super easy. First time for me and only took 5 minutes. Pedal feels better than before I started. No reason to raise the car. Mityvac MV8000 Automotive Test and Bleeding Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00265M9SS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_1JPlxb62W0XB6

Haha, right, right!! So roll on from 40mph

Who's tuning??

Nice!! A three way 3rd gear pull on a closed course of course. Need a trailing car...

UT OH!!! The GT's got some competition now!! We should meet up soon for comparison

Day 2 after delete and all I can say is HECK YEAH!!! I can actually feel the clutches engagement point especially in 1st and 2nd. Not that I will ever race the car but I'm still trying to time up shifting better to stay in boost as I'm used to the old unpredictable, horribly designed piece of monkey shat damper. So in between shifts I feel as I'm not applying enough gas when releasing clutch after gear change and car bogs slightly. Just a new learning curve, no big deal. Another wonderful thing and not sure if it had anything to do with it, but before delete, while depressing clutch, I would hear a creeking noise like an old door closing but that has completely gone away. Maybe the damper was working against the clutch in some way causing this, I don't know? I am asking myself like all others, why o' why did I wait this long http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160505/25855a03ae3d31a93e3fa58ff4851354.jpg

Add another to the list!! First, when backing out of garage, zero clutch chatter and I felt one with the car. I thought to myself, maybe just got lucky. Next, 1st gear and wouldn't you know it, zero chatter or any sign of harsh engagement. My clutch is loving me right now and vice versa. Every time I make a change to the car, I fall in love again! Only went out for a 5 minute ride to test, but all this rant about the delete was dead nuts, it's fantastic!!!! Thanks Reeg

Yes you do

And welcome!!!

Get rear LCA's. They can be had cheap off eBay and still good quality. Had mine for 3 years no issues even up in New England! My rear camber with a moderate drop was way out of whack over -3.0 or something.

02 WRX aluminum brake and clutch pedal pads do fit our fifth gens and assume many other models are compatible too. Good cheap mod when your clutch pedal decides to fall apart. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160327/e962f50a609f2535a50b914c1fbc3de2.jpg

Yup, I meant to attach two frowny faces on opposite sides of the 3 making it an RS8, my mistake This guy http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160310/a5ea81b2aa80cb272b61d8ece74ead8d.jpg

Saw one the other day rolling down the Springfield, Ma streets ( worlds worst roads) thing was sickly loud even at idle.

Drove my dads 2016 S3, while a bit small, a thing of beauty!! Gotta love the dual clutch tranny and a simple stage 2 will net you 500hp on forged internals. So refined!!
