Quick question, who here is running solid steering bushings on 2015+ swapped rack in LGT OR B? I already swapped mine on the OEM rack for prothane and it came in a kit of four halves but for example Torque Solutions’ solid bushing kit for 2015+ rack only has three! Am I missing something here? Couldn’t find any info in Underdog’s thread pertaining to my issue. Thx

Hey y’all, I’m shopping for a blue battery tie-down and Cusco caught my eye but there are three types. My battery is 165mm (OEM Subaru). Which one will fit? The sites that sell them aren’t very precise. Thx Side note; http://www.p1woc.co.uk is putting up a group buy for Prodrive anthracite OEM centercaps. I just ordered a set! New production run apparently. Waiting on a few more buyers.

Hi, two questions concerning steering. (I couldn’t find the particular info in Underdogs STI rack swap). 2015+ rack will fit in a spec.B but up to which year and version; ie; obviously not electric assist, but in parts.subaru some sti’s have different part numbers for the rack in certain years and trim levels. My question is, will a 2020 type va rack fit or I can’t go past 2019 for example? Second question, I saw an 2015 STI steering DAMD shape for sale, is it a direct swap or too much wiring involved to keep oem setup with my s# and radio controls? Thx in advance for the info

Underdog Motorsports - 2015 STI Steering Rack Swap
luckybullitt replied to Underdog's topic in Suspension/Brakes
Stupid question but I checked on parts.subaru.com and starting in 2018 the rack and pinion parts number changes as well as version, ie; Type RA is not same part number as premium. So, in order for me to swap in a 2008 spec.B, which years are bolt on? (Except the tie rod mod etc.). I don’t want to order from a 2019 STI for example and not have it fit at all. Thanks in advance -
On a different subject, I purchased a Kartboy spec.B short shifter from a secure online vendor only to have them email me there’s an error and it’s discontinued. However, the transaction went through yet they never refunded me even though order status says they did. This also happened to a fellow member on the facebook spec.B group. Just make sure when this happens that you follow through and make sure the refund is issued as I ignored following up on it thinking it was done automatically. Since it’s been over a year, Paypal can’t file a dispute, (I know, I was sure the refund was issued and I made other purchases so I didn’t keep track). UPDATE; I edited my OP since as I have contacted the vendor and they are looking into it. I didn’t want to bash or anything but just make sure when you purchase online that you stay on top of things! I’ll post more updates soon

Replaced my tranny mount with the Perrin one and Turn in Concepts pink crossmember bushings and on the way home shifting towards fifth, the shifter went waaaaay to much to the right. I didn’t touch anything in regards to the shifter linkage or anything in that area. I feel a rubbing or click type tension then it goes past fifth and sixth alignment axis. Why this all of a sudden? Shifter never went that far to the right, is that even possible? Tomorrow, (weather permitting) I might swasp my steering joint for solid STI and will have a look in the shifter linkage area to see if I missed anything or torqued something wrong. I’m stumped. Any advice or help would be appreciated. It doesn’t hinder my driving, I can manage to shift 5th and 6th if I don’t push it too far to the right and no NVH or anything out of the ordinary. It’s just agravating when I don’t know the why and the how. Will take a gander at vacation pics to see if my brain can visualize a missed sequence or step, IDK. Has this happened to anyone here? Shifter stop?? 08 spec.B
