WRX USA

I have the Max’s on my Tacoma and they are awesomely bright. I moved my Pro’s from my Tacoma to my Outback when I upgraded and transferred over the corresponding mounting bits. I’ve never been flashed by anyone with either the Pro’s or Max’s on my Tacoma, so the cutoff is really good.

Which version are those, sport, pro or max’s? Agreed, they look like they are on the high side.

It replaces the OEM one with a beefier mount.

That would have been a perfect time to upgrade to the Cusco rear HD sway bar end link brackets (part # 684316A), rather than the OEM ones.

They also fit my Outback with a JDM front end swap.

Those are KW V3’s? I still have the Outback spacers installed. Will I need to get rid of those?

I have a Tacoma TRD Pro so the off-road capability of the OBXT isn’t as critical.

Another option is swapping over to the Bilstein BTS-5088J, that drops the ride height 30mm: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/q459799678

How long did the rebuild take? Understood that you had it done pre-COVID and that may impact their turnaround.

I’m undecided right now because I’d also like to find some coilovers to replace my aging Bilstein BTS setup. I’m currently running 235/45r18’s on 18x8” Enkei Raijin’s. I’m thinking a 265/40r18. What size tire would you recommend? Edit: Maybe 255/45r18

The last time I drove my Outback traction was a serious issue, so I’ve been looking for some wider wheels. I’ve settled on either TE37’s in an 18x9.5”, and doing all of the fitment mods needed, or BBS RF 520’s (18x9” ET45).

Low beam headlights: Low beam headlights with fogs: I realized I should have also done high beams after the fact.

Installed Diode Dynamic SS3 Pro’s in SAE yellow:

Did an oil change and since it’s been so long I couldn’t remember the exact capacity with the KillerB oil pan and accidentally overfilled it requiring me to drain a little bit. That was super easy to do with a Fumoto valve. I also installed Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro fog lights in SAE yellow.

Like with ditch light brackets?

As far as I could determine, you need to have a button in that spot and not a blank.

The fog lamps are different on the JDM Outback and I remember them mounting differently than the USDM ones. It’s been a couple years since I’ve last been in there. I need to pop off the front bumper to take a look. I also have a Syms lightweight front beam I’ll probably install at the same time. It’s a huge increase in output on the SS3 Max’s, even over the SS3 Pro’s and definitely over the OEM Rigid LED’s. This is where I did my research: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/the-led-sae-j583-fog-pod-fog-light-review.554813/page-186#post-24528029

I had to drive the Outback about a month ago but only to get it out of the garage so I could put the truck in there to install an OEM Audio + System. I still need to reregister it. I took this pic after I installed the Diode Dynamics SS3 Max’s and removed the SS3 Pro’s. The SS3 Pro’s I plan on installing on my Outback. I have no idea if they will work on my JDM bumper.

I got a 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro and supercharged it.

This looks like a pretty good “how to”: https://hwshim.wordpress.com/2009/06/16/how-to-replace-subaru-outback-2008-cabin-ac-filter/

Which rotated turbo is that?

I’d really like to see a build list. Might be compelling to make some changes.

You are right, before I switched to a hybrid speed density tune, I was “limited” to 402whp. Here is the rest of my build: -IAG Stage 2 Tuff (#2476) - new OEM block - new OEM nitride coated crank - Cosworth 1431 pistons - IAG Spec H beam rods - ACL “H” STD HX main bearings - ACL “H” STD rod bearings - Manley piston rings ARP Head Stud Kit Blouch DOM1.5xtr 2.4” inlet and 8cm hotside Cobb SF intake and box Cobb Flex Fuel Kit with Fuel Pressure Monitoring kit Company 23 Anti-Surge EBCS AEM 340lph fuel pump relayed to 12v source -4 Fuel Return line Fluidampr crank pulley Fuelab Mini fuel pressure regulator 25-90psi Grimmspeed TMIC w/ black thermal dispersant coating Grimmspeed STi style hose for TMIC GSC Beehive Valve Springs w/ Titanium Retainer Valvetrain Kit GSC Power-Division Stainless Steel Exhaust Valves, 32mm GSC Power-Division Stainless Steel Intake Valves, 36mm IAG TGV Deletes (black) IAG fuel rails anodized black IAG fuel lines with STi FPR IAG AOS in black IAG air pump delete ID1000's IP&T V1 Filtered Oil Feed Kit Killer B Motorsport High Flow Water Pump Housing (WPH) Killer B Motorsport High Performance Oil Pan (EJ25Pan) Killer B Motorsport Ultimate Oil Pickup (070-110) Killer B Motorsport Oil Baffle Windage Tray (EJWT) Killer B Holy Header with EWG V-Band Uppipe, Swaintech Coated Koyo aluminum radiator Perrin 2.4" black silicone turbo inlet Prova Air Intake Guide Samco ancillary, radiator and oil cooler lines STi 11mm Oil pump Subaru OEM water pump Tial MV-S 38mm EWG in Black rerouted into downpipe Tomei Poncams Tomei Timing Belt Guide TurboSmart BPV Maddad Catted Downpipe Nameless Performance mid-pipe JDM Prodrive wagon-specific mufflers Based on this, I’d love to see your response.

#2 is 92 pump. E10 is in reference to the ethanol blend which is standard in Oregon on pump (https://www.oregonlive.com/environment/2008/05/oregons_ethanol_requirement_lo.html).
