JDM headlight install walkthough.
element899 replied to element899's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Are you looking for the connector that plugs into the leveler on the headlight? If so, it's the same connector at the USDM headlight connector. -

I am also in need of a couple stickers. Should I inquire through a PM SBT? -
Cadillac ATS Brembo Caliper Upgrade for your Subaru
element899 replied to LatentWagen's topic in Suspension/Brakes
Yeah, I don't see how any 17's will be able to fit with this kit. The offset adapter doesn't allow for full pad contact or for proper fitment. I just did the STI Brembo swap, and those are very close to the barrels on my 17's. -

I'm currently on 2011 WRX's, just need a small spacer to be able to fit the STI Brembos. -

Totally in the same boat. Plus with the recent pictures, not all of the pad being used is a total deal breaker. I picked up a whole front brembo setup for the same price as the ATS which just made more sense to me. -

I had messaged the people that make the ats adapter and they said that the ctsv calipers won't work with the kit because they have offset mounting holes which make it difficult to make a bracket for. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk -

That was my same concern, the bracket looks like it pushes the caliper too far outward. I did message the company that makes the bracket, and they did confirm that all the pad is in use. The STI brembos also look like they sit closer to the rotor. -

Look at the first post on this thread, very comparable in size. -

Going to pick up a whole front STI brembo swap for about the same price, but still super interested to see what people do with this swap. -

Speaking of diffuser. Here's a poor quality screenshot of it with the diffuser on. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160417/52b8f72b629536ae7f07b5577586d38a.jpg Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk -

The STI BBS's spokes clear the caliper, but the top part of the caliper is hitting the barrel of the wheel. The Spec B's will probably clear the top part of the caliper, but will need a spacer to clear the spokes. -

Has anyone heard back from them about the issue with 17" wheels, I sent them another message yesterday but have yet to hear back about this critical issue. -

Well bought the calipers, if anything I can return them if need be. -

So messaged them via Facebook and they confirmed that all the pad is being utilized. They also said that if we get 10 people to go in on a group buy that they would knock #30 off the price making is $190 per kit. -

Super curious about this. Was reading the post over on NASIOC and it looks like the caliper sits a bit askew due to the adapter. I would really like to do this, but want some results before I go spending money on. -
3D Printing Development Thread
element899 replied to discojon's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
It may not be 3-D printing, but would someone know how to scan the trunk and develop wing stands like these? http://blogstreetracing.net/images/tuning-avto/subaru/tyuning-subaru-legacy/sndt168f-12.jpg -
3D Printing Development Thread

Would any designers/printer think of doing a single 60mm gauge pod for the dash vent instead of dual 52mm's? -

I'd say check connections, may have something wired backwards. -

Yes, please do. The most JDM parts installed, the better. I'm going to test fit my JDM bumper this weekend, just needs some paint. -

No problem, if you have any more questions feel free to ask. I know my write-up is a little confusing. -

No, you don't need to replace the flasher unit either. Since the running light and blinker are not wired in-line, I was able to run an LED in the running light and have the blinkers function just fine. -
3D Printing Development Thread
element899 replied to discojon's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
I was thinking that the air could be pulled from the foglight holes. I know that rooducts already has a 3-d printed design that bolts to the frame, but I was thinking this could be smaller and have air flow directly to the rotor. The rooducts product would need additional hose to reach the rotor surface. http://rooducts.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_20140307_191802_080.jpg -

Any designers/builders ever think of designing a bolt-on brake ducting. Maybe something like this: http://www.rcephotos.com/photos/albums/album54/Racecomp_Engineering_Brake_Ducts.sized.jpg -

I have the motors, just haven't hooked up the switches. Still debating on if I want to.
