SubyDude555 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 If you have everything else installed, the power braces will tighten up the rear a tad. If your car is set to have a bit of oversteer, these will bring it back to neutral with throttle oversteer. On a regular, non-racecar setup, I have no idea what they do. On SubyDude's car, I believe they cause a break in the space-time continuum. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubyDude555 Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Forget to mention not only is it my DD but I drove it from Washington to Texas in October when I moved here. I made it the whole way without a single issue but the ride was pretty unconfertable because I felt every bump on the road because of the super stiff suspension. Right now and Ben (Zero1) has seen it, my car is a hot mess and well over due for a wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubyDude555 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Share Posted March 22, 2014 Bought a 2006 Sti to use as a daily driver today, the stiff suspension on my Legacy was killing me on these crappy Texas roads. http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt49/SubyStud555/image_zpsf89b12bc.jpg http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt49/SubyStud555/image_zps5b514e44.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spc2125 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Not very often the STI id the daily and the legacy is the "weekend car". Props! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobo2701 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 ya i would agree with spc2125 good call on the sti for a beater car i wanna get another dodge 12valve cummins 5spd for a DD. they truly are indestructible and I'm a firm believer that a truck is needed for any man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubyDude555 Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Been driving the Sti for over a week now and I love it but the motor's got some issues so I'm going to have it built. The car is pretty much stock except for an HKS exhaust, Turbo Smart boost gauge, HID's, and upgraded rotors. So here's what's about to be done: AWD Tuning Stage Two – 500whp/500wtq Block with -New OEM Subaru case halves -New Nitride coated crankshaft -Fresh hone -ACL Race bearings -JE FSR/JE Hybrid or Arias custom pistons -Manley H-Beam rods Blouch 18G Turbo GM Turbo Inlet Hose Exedy Heavy Duty Stage 1 Clutch CNT Catless Downpipe AEM Intake Keep in mind this is my daily driver so it's not going to be as crazy as my Legacy. My goal is to have a car that's easy/fun to drive, reliable, and has a decent amount of power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero1 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Decent amount of power lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubyDude555 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 Decent amount of power lol Which is why I'm only putting an 18G on the car. Speaking of power, any word on when your car will be finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero1 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It's at the fab shop finally getting all the FMIC piping and DP done. Hoping to drive down within the next month and pick her up!

Con.Harr91 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 500hp is what the engine is rated to, not what the 18G will be pushing out... Should be a very potent daily nonetheless!
