ebo03 Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 If you're going you might as well get a touch up. Ehhh no need. I'm steps away from my last couple mods on this car with the 57xtremes and headlights. After that I'm going to consider her complete and focus on saving some cash for my next project.

ebo03 Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 LightWerkz should have the headlights done by the end of this week. Time to order Cusco rear LCA, OEM TPMS, and Tarmac Zeros tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evasabzacami Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I could always scrap the Bilsteins and get coilovers if front strut clearance is an issue. Obviously I'd like to avoid this if possible, but it is a solution. Coilovers are in fact thicker than stock as the springs sit much lower. I have Tein Street Flex with 20x9.0 ET42 rim and 245/35 BS S001 Tyre and a -1.5 camber. Around 0.2 inches to the coil. At the back I have 20x10.0 ET44 with 285/30 BS S001 - lot of place there. Although I measured the width and it seems to be just 2cm wider than the front, meaning it looks like 265mm tyre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 ^^You're running staggered wheel fitment on an AWD car? Any center diff problems crop up yet?

SBT Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Coilovers are in fact thicker than stock as the springs sit much lower. Good point.

Although I measured the width and it seems to be just 2cm wider than the front, meaning it looks like 265mm tyre Hopefully NOT on a Subaru. With that rotational difference between 245 and 285, I'm sure any Subaru drivetrain would be squawking holy hell. I envision a very short and problematic service life for your transmission and center differential. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...BUT if the coilover has helper springs, and if removing them doesn't create slop, then you can take out the helper springs, raist the perch, and get more clearance...as I did with the Tarmac Zero's.

ebo03 Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 I got the coilovers and Cusco rear LCAs installed last weekend. I just now got around to getting the ride height dialed in on all four corners. I had to cancel my appt at IAG which was scheduled for this past Thursday. Too many other things going on this past week to make it up there. They are pretty slammed for the next month so I'll be heading up there July 10. Let's see if I can give her a full wash and wax today and possibly get the headlights installed before the weekend is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrik94087 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 It will take a little getting used to but it is very good.

MRLancaster Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Is the light that is on the side blacked out as well? I'm paranoid of mine failing inspection due to the amber piece and light being blacked out. Although looking through VA Requirements it doesn't REQUIRE that little light that I could see, but still paranoid. heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do most things myself or have a mechanic friend help with larger scale things. IAG treats their customers right so I don't mind making the drive.
