02/19/14 - Spotted a black 05-09 LGT.. Looked like it was lowered, maybe tinted headlights/tails? Was traveling east on route 33 in Neptune near 7/11.

01/13/14 - Spotted silver 05-09 LGT heading west on Route 33 in Wall/Neptune. You waved, I nodded :-)

IDK At this point I'm looking at $200 vs $500+ for a dyno tune from Precision. I'm not sure it's worth it on a bare bones 16G setup (I'll be running stock fueling).
Yeah I hear that.

I was going to go to Precision Tuning but I think I'm going to have Dave tune it again (Cryo).
Dang, I would probably use Precision so I was hoping to see what they get out of it for you.
-
I'll try and call Bryan tomorrow during lunch or something but here is what I'm referring to as well as a glamor shot
So much want! Who you getting tuned by?

Bummer.

Anybody think its necessary to get an alignment after an axle swap? Does it depend on the method used to get the axle out? Hoping the slight vibration I feel under acceleration needs an alignment vs another axle.

Had my EMPI 80-5531 installed yesterday along side my new clutch and I think everything is ok. I have a every so slight vibration under acceleration but nothing while coasting or slowing down. Not sure to attribute that to the new clutch or the axle quite yet. Only have driven 30 miles so far so time will tell.
-
I looked at it from both angles.. buy a better made part (hopefully) and do the job once.. or pay for a lower end part (probably) and maybe have to do it more than once. Would be nice if EMPI had a local reseller. IF they do, I couldnt find one in my limited search.
-
Yeah.. this was the cheapest I could find.. and not having to deal with a core exchange made it all that much better.
I just pray that I got a good one that doesn't vibrate or click. Seems these knockoffs can be hit or miss, but EMPI seems to be the top knockoff so hopefully ill be ok. Does say "MADE IN CHINA" right on the box though.

Bought a brand new EMPI 80-5531 front axle from Midwest-Autoparts on ebay for 64.24 shipped.
Shipped day after purchase.. looks good. Getting installed Thursday with my new CM FX300 clutch and WRX/LGT SMFW.

Wow! Man if these come out at a reasonable price, your gonna make some bank!
-
Yeah this is for the drivers side Vent made for USDM LGTs. By making this for the vent it allows flexibility for those with NAV to be included this go around.
I think the location is pretty sweet, but we'll see what the beta testers say.
Guess Ill have to start putting my wallet in my other rear pocket to straighten my seating position a lil bit. As I sit now, i wouldnt be able to see the right most LED/OLED... but its not like your supposed to stare at this thing all the time anyway so no biggie.
Cant wait to see the finished product and how much it costs!
-
Will this fit only in the vent to the left of the steering wheel? I didn't even realize it wasn't for the middle cubby.
-
-
why?
yup - good idea, let me add that capability.
Current proposed features (not guaranteed):
- peak and hold option
- programmable hold time
- peak and hold history
- programmable boost alarm
- boost alarm solid state relay - to trigger external whatever.
- wideband display (lc-1 compatible)
- wideband display (plx compatible)
- customizable startup screens
- volt meter
- blackout mode - no display
- automatic ambient light sensing to adjust brightness
boom
- peak and hold option
-
Volt meter possible?

Didn't look or smell like burning oil to me though.. Looked like coolant smoke.. white vs. blueish
Just my .02 though, not a mechanic by any means.. but having had cars with blown head-gaskets, I got used to the sight of that type of smoke/smell.

actually I think I spotted you back in May also.. haha
-
I live off of Jack Martin. I work at Ft. Monmouth, so I'm on the parkway every day. I never see GT's. Lot's of plain Legs, but no GT's. It was kinda cool to actually spot one. I guess I don't get out much. LOL
Im usually on the parkway everyday also.. but usually a little bit later. Was an early day for me.
Now thinking about it, I think I have spotted you before, maybe last week at the 91 exit.. I think you took the 2nd exit towards burnt tavern road. Which makes sense if you live around Jack Martin. My gma-in-law lives near the light on 70 on jack martin in that retirement village.

I think my dad has spotted your car, he's a mailman in brick, I used to live in Toms River. He told me one time he saw a Legacy on one of his routes.
If you see a short guy with a mustache and glasses, thats him.
-John
Ha, your dad just may be my mailman.. I was working on my car this past friday and saw my mailman for the first time, and I think your description fits.. not 100% sure though. Have to remember to take a better look.
-
Silver LGT with no spoiler on GSP North this morning around 7:55 at exit 100A. I exited and you kept going.
Holy crap, I got spotted finally! haha
I saw you at the last minute before you hit the ramp, I was exiting at 100B.
Where abouts in brick do you live? I'm off Chambersbridge myself. Surprised I haven't seen your car more often.

Spotted a Black LGT, tinted... Chambersbridge road in Brick, NJ.... around 4:30pm yesterday. Was a few cars behind me pulling into my neighborhood but did a quick U turn to head back down chambersbridge towards route 70.
Koni Shock/Strut & Epic Engineering Spring Install
in Walkthroughs :: Performance Modifications
Posted
Fml.
Today was the day to do my Koni/Eibach install. Got the car up in the air, started with the lower rear strut bolt.. And that's where I stopped. No amount of working on that bolt would break it free. 2ft breaker bar, POS harbor freight electric impact gun, Torch... Wouldn't budge.
So I guess ill have to take it to a shop and have them break the bolts free.
What a waste of a day. On the other hand, my brothers spring swap in his BRZ went without a hitch. Didn't even need a spring compressor.
