The BBS RE875s that I have on the car now are 18x8 with an offset of 50. I wouldn't know if a 18x8 and 40 offset would fit. Sorry. What is a tee guard? awesome! looking forward to when you install the rear brembos! Thanks! The only thing holding me back on installing them now is deciding if I should install them as is, or have them powdercoated... and whatever that timeline is to do the powdercoat work. I'm 99% sure that I'll get the rears powdercoated so I'm not running mismatched The fronts are powdercoated black with silver lettering today. The rears that I have are the standard gold with red lettering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solidxsnake Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Drove back home on the highway in the rain.... TIL my brakes are complete trash when they're wet. Was slowing down to take the exit, hit the brakes, and NOTHING for a good second or so. Was fine after using it, but once the rotors were covered in water (from cruising for 5-10+ miles), the brakes became temporarily worthless again. Guess it turns out I haven't driven this thing in heavy rain since I've had it. edit: a solid week+ later and I realized I posted this in your thread instead of the WDYDT thread. Sorry for the thread crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterJMC Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 This arrived this week. I'll have to break open the plastic wrap on the thing behind it so I can at least install something this month... [emoji38] What's in the plastic wrap won't be installed on the car until the Spring.

PeterJMC Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 So I've decided to do the 2015 STi Steering Rack Swap. The car will sit for another few weeks waiting for parts. I ended up finding a used rack on ebay and it comes with the u joint.

mshall2025 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Do you know if there is much difference in clearing the headlights from the other models? I haven't done them yet but I found a thread on how to do it on older models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatentWagen Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the spec. B has blinker fluid reservoirs that need to be drained before you can bake/clear the headlights. LW's spec. B / YT / IG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
