Rimfaxe Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 FYI- I've finally installed the under tray and updated the review on this thread. I've added an installation photo also. The fitment is perfect and installation was complete in 20 minutes. I'm very happy with the GTSpec product- first rate IMO. If anyone is interested in this item, I'd recommend contacting Jeremy at FredBeansParts.com- My next oil change is coming up in about 600 miles, so I should have some feedback on this then. jd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew888 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 For the next guy that installs one. Can you take a side pic with a wheel off? Curious how the hole in the fenderwell is addressed after the side wing of the oem piece is no longer there. I'd like to see how high the sides go and how it looks. It's a nice looking piece.

RavSpec Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 yup, it's an amazing piece. Also, just want to point out that the panel are now anodized instead of full polish. Main reason are to protect against aluminum corrosion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tingtang Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 how easy is it to take off that panel for the oil filter?? looks like a lot of bolts for a simple panel.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimfaxe Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 As easy as removing 8 screws. I'll update my review in this thread-- I'll be doing an oil change this weekend. I have a Fumoto valve on the oil pan. I don't think the panel covering the oil filter will be a problem at all. I'll provide some feedback soon.

Rimfaxe Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Quick Update: I just added a Fumoto 105N and installed the drain hose through the under tray. This was an easy install with a 3/4" hole and rubber grommet. Its a great solution! I've added a pic in my original review in post #9 of this thread.

IanB Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Hmmm, my wife trashed the under-engine tray on ours yesterday. Does anyone know if this will fit a 2.5i as far as drainplug and oil filter openings, and exhaust clearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRS Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 The GTSPEC web site only lists it for the GT. RalliTEK came out with one specifically for 2005-2009 Legacy non-turbo models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my searching on this, it looks like the OEM GT and the 2.5i Ltd. under-engine trays are the same part #. Is there any reason the GTSPEC would fit one and not the other?

TRS Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 The OE plastic tray fits either but, at least for the original RalliTEK one, the skid plate did not have enough clearance for the longer headers used on the n/a cars. The GTSPEC piece may have the clearance to fit the 2.5i since they state "Will clear GTSPEC manifold". Contact GTSPEC and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
