srgdrum Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Wow....that sucks. Did you get the from Boostjunkie? I did. I complained loudly and Boost put me in touch with the megan rep. After much added $ and work on my part they sent 2 near rear inserts. no help... I had to get it in writing from Subaru that it wasn't anything else on the car! Can you say "Buh-Bye suspension warranty?!" They are just noisy. I've seen 2 or 3 other threads of people complaining about noises of various types. Don't get me wrong they handle a millionty X better than my stock struts + H techs but the noise is bothersome to me. I am a little sensitive to noises though. Rattles and creaks piss me off!

I am bout to order them but all they show are the stupid horseshoe links for a WRX! Do you like them? Any noise from them?? I get 0 noise fromt he kartboy endlinks. I got these from turn in concepts. They aren't the horseshoe style. Front and rear are dogbone style. I don't have a pic (and my camera is still in KY) but I'll t ry to find you a link. kartboy endlinks = 100% good mod and money well spent. The cobb bars destroyed the stock pieces quickly!

As for the pics...I can take 'em, just can't do it for free. Gotta keep paying for gear and time somehow. Not asking for much...but, I'll give you a phat print, for a certain price point. You choose the pic that you want to take. I just can't do rolling shots...I don't have the equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnetdropout Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 what did they sound like? u have never herd a car with bad brake pulsation? I have. And I think my car has warped rotors. Im thinkin about getting new rotors and HAWK Pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPLGT Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Joe...you need to buy an AP. Rehab is for quitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE_1985 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 i know i need an ap, 1st sojax has to tear down my turbo, to keep from hurting my car it wll be parked untill next wensday when ill take it up to sojax. 2nd off theres some other stuff im waiting to get, im horribly known for having parts laying around for a year till i get about 75% of the goodies i want then take my time and install everything myself. plus its a good way to really learn the mechanical external and some internals of your car eventally i will get a vf48? (sti turbo) fmic , and the other stuff i have with an ap and ill be satisfied, im not looking to make a racecar, but ill have overkill passing power. plus its good to have backup vehicles so i can take my time on my lgt, ive been slowly cleaning her since shes been sitting and i think tomarrow or monday i may put in those speakers, or i may wait till i get a later model unit that plays mp3s and ill add in a amp or 2 and a line converter like i said i have a long drawn out plan. oh as for your brakes magnet, if u get all the parts ill help u do it but im wondering if u would like to gather the parts and do a lgt brake swap on the front.

TPLGT Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I was going to ask what the deal is w/ your vf40? Are they going to cover under warranty? get the up and dp installed asap and get the AP! Well worth the $$ and you will love the results! Rehab is for quitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE_1985 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 im half temped to buy that one with 10k for 275 shipped soa said they would tear into it and if it had a mechanical failure then they would fix it, but if it was sludged up or was due to abuse then im responsible, im gonna see what they say after the teardown, sucks i cant use a toyota turbo cause i have 2 sitting in my closest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea for sure! I'll start searching around for the parts I need. But if you decide to get a whole new brake setup, I'll buy your stock parts.

srgdrum Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I assume you mean a V1 for 275 shipped? Jump on that! Joe- Why not consider open source tuning. not that I know much about it but you could def consult with some of the folks in the tuning forum. Def get a flex up pipe not matter what brand you get. The Hawk HPS pads are pretty good. Nice improvement over stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPLGT Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 FYI I Tactrix cable is $79 amd Jestr Tuning down in Orlando will Open Source Tune you for $300. Rehab is for quitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srgdrum Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 FYI I Tactrix cable is $79 amd Jestr Tuning down in Orlando will Open Source Tune you for $300. Ouch! Maybe used Ap is the way to go then. Unless you are just gonna skip all that stage 1 and 2 stuff. If I had it to do over again I'd have a rotated kit... and a blown transmission!

TPLGT Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 $300 isn't too bad...I was looking at a Protune at Japtrix in WPB...$350 + $150 per on the dyno....AND that is using the AP I already have. Rehab is for quitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srgdrum Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I thought you were saying this was an open source map from a member. Didn't realize it was a protune. I paid much more than $300 plus dyno fee plus my AP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
