  1. Gave my baby her 2nd coating of Regex for the Summer. I've owned here for 16 yrs next month, just turned 140k, yes, she's the less desirable 5EAT and has theTaupe interior that everyone wants to change out but she's not going anywhere. Well maintained in and out, being debaged, many people have no idea what she is and quite often they think she is but a couple of years old. I'm in the auto busines and my dealership GM offered me $12K last week, it took me less than 2 seconds to say no! I only bring this up because many have been talking rebuild or sell, what can you buy that looks this good and performs as well as these do for even $20K? I'm only STG1 but I have a custom JmP VF40 and Cobb catted DP waiting for a rebuild or until someone tells me without a doubt the DP will not make my GReddy SP2 too loud or drone. I thought I'd attach a few pics of in and out to prove why she not going anywhere. Aside from a touch of cracking on the drivers bolster she's just like she came off the showroom floor. No I won't take $15k either, Lol
  2. If my measurements are correct my Centric Premium rotors are 1.25" thick, from what I can tell from the specs in Wilwood's site each caliper is 2.15" thick thus making the setup 5.55" in width. I have no idea how the Brakeswap adapter fits into the package ( measurements+/-) I can't see this set-up fitting my current 02 WRX BBS wheels, I have about .5" with the stock calipers. I know these calipers are supposed to fit the stock wheels can anyone please tell us the distance from the caliper to the wheel spoke please? I'm hoping my measurements are wrong!?
  3. I know 04 STi BBS's will fit with Brembo so the Wilwood's will fit, My 02 BBS's will not fit Brembo's, I have approximately 1/2" form spoke to caliper. I guess I need to look at the the measurements.
  4. Hi all, can anyone tell me if these calipers will fit my forged 02 WRX BBS 17x7, 55 offset?
  5. They have enough problems to deal with other than a 15 + year old dash issue, I agree it was handled incorrectly, the current chip shortage is a nightmare for all manufactures at this moment (I'm in the auto business and our dealership and all others across the country are in deep shit with no vehicle's) just look at the Blue book value on preowned vehicles, they're going up, not down, just like they did last year. https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2021/04/chip-shortage-subaru-shutting-down-sia-through-april/
  6. I agree with above statement, my dash is still good ( High desert, Reno NV) My 07 Lexus GS350 AWD has no dash issues either!
  7. 07 should have a catless UP OEM, not sure why STI UP would be needed. That's all I know GL
  8. I would like a wagon waist spoiler too! Madrig, I've wanted a S402 honey comb grill for my USDM front end since 2014 will you make one? With your skills it should be a snap, Lol!
  9. The waste gate flap on my stock VF40 was similar at one time, until it was repaired.
  10. Apologies all, I forgot I also used Polyvance too for the cracks, how too video below.My cracks were not that bad! Products used, I also learned how to plastic/vinyl weld, not tough to do takes a little practice. Some of this product can be a bit expensive, if someone decides to try and repair their dash, hit me up and I'll let it go for very little $.
  11. Best I have at the moment, all the car parts are in the attic.
  12. +1 on SEM, used SEM on my 1971 Alfa Romeo GTV dash, it came out beautiful, had to use many different products to repair some small cracks and try and get the texture to match. My 05 GT has been in the high desert it's whole life (16yrs) garaged, my dash seems to be fine, I use 303 on it, sometimes spots get a light chalk film after a month or so but I've not seen the sticky dash issue.
  13. I'd be all over that JDM grill if it would fit USDM, damn! I was next in line for a DIY S402 7 years ago, Lol
  14. New 02 WRX BBS's, 16 years with stockers has come to a end!
  15. Thanks Max, I'll probably refinish the 5 spoke's somehow, I liked the look too. I was shocked at how much more the stockers weighed too. Need to drive it and see if I can feel a difference.
  16. Finally had the 02 WRX BBS's installed, nice change after 16 years of the stockers.
