ICE7 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Morning Guys, I had installed the 2006 / 2007 WRX Calipers on my 2010 Subaru Legacy.

Next, i'm going from 18" to 19" Wheels....stay tuned Regards, islandkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVAKeith Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Picked up a set of FRS wheels with their size snows and their TPMS sensors for $175. Wheels are a B-, no curbs but some scuffs. Also picked up a set of new Firestone snow tires to go on them for $275. After seven seasons, my last set was down to the belts on one tire when I pulled them last month.

Scubaboo Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I believe the stock GT calipers provide better braking than these. It's not really an upgrade. Was able to compare both on the same car. My brother's XT had 4 pots when he got it from me. I gave him my LGT brakes when I put on Brembos. The LGT brakes were better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s2baru Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 New exhaust gasket from the dp to the turbo. During the flipping of Brendan's OEM and my catless to pass emissions I managed to misplace it fml. Also some gtechniq c5 wheel ceramic costing and panel Wipe. Going to get the new beautys looking mint along with my axle backs for years to come.

Falcor Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Not bought, but returned. The driver's side mirror replacement didn't fit correctly. Once the return is processed, I'm purchasing an OEM replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you’ve got the painted cap, eBay has used ones around $65 such as this https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F223584826256 Remember that yours is heated and the 2010 were not folding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcor Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I was swayed by the wheel setup RikGT had on his car before the new wheels. So I bought a set of STI center caps. They are the aftermarket ones since I couldn't justify the cost of factory caps. But, I do like the light touches of factory mods like the Ts.

moral hazard Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Got a 2015+ WRX Garrett MGT2259s and header for cheap : https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SUBARU-WRX-Forester-XT-G4-2015-TURBO-UNIT-MGT22595-FA20-DIT-TURBO-14-15-16-17-/163819217820 Will be test fitting this, I believe it should fit . I've got a complete exhaust to suit. Once it's all bolted up, it should then mean an easier upgraded turbo down the road since there should be more options available for the WRX flange. Been meaning to do this for a while, just had to wait for a cheap enough stock turbo to come up for sale locally. This one should be decent with only 8000km on it.

s2baru Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Definitely won't fit. Too narrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moral hazard Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Wasn't able to find anything online that confirmed it, have you seen it tested before or how did you make the calculations? Either way I guess it's too late for me to cancel, already paid for. Figure it can't be too hard to resell if no use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cww516 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Well, let us know how it goes either way. If it turns out that it does fit, you'll be a hero! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexmed2002 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Bought this cool cover for my radiator cap. Only payed $11. Looks fantastic, in my case red. https://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-STI-CNC-High-Performance-Aluminum-Radiator-Protection-Cap-Cover-ORANGE-WRX/302970190355 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarang Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Definitely won't fit. Too narrow I thought I read somewhere on NASIOC that it would fit the STI if not for the oil pan. I haven't tried it, but when my engine was out for the clutch fork, I stopped by my shop and held an FA20dit header up to mine and thought that it would probably fit. Anyways, I think that there's a good chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
