minuccims Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 do you guys think that 04 STi REAR brembos would fit if you could get the 08 STi bracketry? NO. Need 08+ STI rears. Ebrake drum bigger diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 ^^^There it is!!! That Ebrake thing again. Where can I download that from? GTEASER's 2012 Legacy GT - Sold GTEASER's 2009 XTeaser - Sold GTEASER's 1992 Legacy SS - Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fahr_side Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 NO. Need 08+ STI rears. Ebrake drum bigger diameter. Nope. ALL STi models with R180 rear diffs have the bigger 190mm parking brake. Obligatory '[URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/2008-gh8-238668.html?t=238668"]build thread[/URL]' Increased capacity to 2.7 liters, still turbo, but no longer need spark plugs.

Brainchild Customs Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 thanks for clearing that up guys. I think I'm going to skip the rears for now and eventually get the rear stoptech to match the fronts used 08 calipers are hard to find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acumenhokie Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Can someone confirm this is the right combo for our car? Planning to upgrade the turbo/IC in the spring but this looks like too good a deal to pass up. http://www.infamousperformance.net/servlet/the-1734/DeatschWerks-1000cc-Bosch-EV14/Detail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm not mistaken, its perfect. I have basically same, but IDs instead - but the size of the injectors and the same pump thou. You can run corn with that - I won't because of limited availability.

I was hoping you'd say that since I'm piggy backing off of your setup. Going to order this and the TMIC in the next few days. Now I need to think turbo.

acumenhokie Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Do you have the exact part number? I just placed an order though a different vendor and want to make sure they ship the right one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshf Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 what rims are compatible with this generation? I'm looking to step down a size for winter tires. I have a 2012 Legacy GT. My understanding is I need 225/50 17 tires but will any older Subaru 17 fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is I need 225/50 17 tires but will any older Subaru 17 fit? The 3.6R has the same size calipers and comes with 17" rims stock. Their tire is 215/50R17. Anything in a 5x100 bolt pattern should work unless you get some crazy offset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepr56 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Stock 3.6R tire is a 225/50R17....at least on the '13. I am running a 215/55R17 on my stock wheels for winter. No issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepr56 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 2011-2012 WRX Wheels.........17x8, 5x100, 53mm Offset. Noob'ish question, the larger offset will give me a closer or more flush look to the fender? Or will be be roughly the same since I am going to a wider wheel? I know stock 3.6R is 17x7.5, 5x100, ~48mm offset (based on 2012 wheel). Anyone running these on the 5th gen yet? I have seen plenty of pictures on 4th gens or older. So many of these wheels popping up for better prices compared to aftermarket, so it's tempting to take a set my summer setup. Then the other issue, if I am pushing more toward the fender, if I go to the RCE or Eibach springs, I am increasing the chances for rubbing.

Therefore, no problems with rubbing, even if lowered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrD123 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Could be a typo but cars101.com shows a 215 for 2012 and a 225 for 2013. Subaru brochures for 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 all list the size as 225/50R17 for the 3.6R, so I am guessing a typo. the previous generation 3.0R had 215/45R17.

Rutchard Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) +53mm offset will be 5mm CLOSER to the car (that is: a narrower stance) than the +48mm offset. Therefore, no problems with rubbing, even if lowered. Two different wheel widths, can't simply subtract and get the difference. The 17x8 +53 will stick out about 1mm more and stick in about 11mm more. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v307/Rutch/cellphone/null.png Edited December 12, 2012 by Rutchard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I was going to look for 225/50R17 , so you have no speedo issues with 215/55R17 ? I'm also wondering if older Legacy rims will fit. I saw a Legacy GT '05 rim for sale in the classified. Does anyone foresee an issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepr56 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I think the wheel calc put me +/- 2 mph at 55-60, so I am not too worried. I have yet to GPS myself though to get a dead on number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
