    Debating playing with the rims.

    Do they sell BBS Gold (or close) plasti-dip? Im seeing metalizers and such and the website for plasti-dip looks like only 6 colors yet i see tons more being talked about. What am I missing here? Anyone got a link to a place to purchase online with lots of colors? edit: if I have to mix my own...

    Looks great!!! I've successfully held back, luckily I have noone but myself telling me to mod before warranty is up, although the parts are accumulating in the garage

    What dyno is best and why..

    My vote goes to virtual dyno as well, just use the same stretch of road and the best part is the cost

    GR 2011 SWP STI HATCH

    Car is very sick, I like it much more without the stretched tires but that's just because im not into that scene, on the 6 spokes it looks straight nasty. Now if you slap some 305s on those 10" wide wheels then I'd like that even more, gotta bust out that fender hammer :-D

    DCCD info and FAQs

    For 08+ I'd like some info about Auto (+) and Auto (-). Is it + is more lock and - is less lock? (just uses different algorithms with a preference to more or less lock) Maybe I'm way off base but i think i remember seeing somewhere like in snow you want auto+ and on a tarmac track you want...

    GD C NO EVO 2007 Limited Edition 499/800

    *sigh* I'm at 14k now and wonder when mine is gonna go, just really hope Subaru doesn't give me any shit about anything if it does (it's stock for now). Beautiful car man! I'm really diggin the countryside where you're living looks very peaceful out there! Likin all the NC STi's we're...

    Its an Abbott thing

    Ah ok you had to use 3mm spacers, doesnt make me feel so bad, wanted to stay away from spacers for my winter/off-road set. Really like the wheels though they look awesome on the 04/05 :tup: As far as the 3071, I've been looking at the Dom 1.5XTR which I believe is a 3071 CHRA IIRC, but have...

    INTERISTA- 06 WRB 428whp/405wtq

    I would request to see the block that comes out, as 35psi on 3 other cylinders is very low as well, and its very uncommon to blow both headgaskets. Also the shortblock coming out could be salvageable unless TopSpeed requires a core. Good luck with the new build!

    Its an Abbott thing

    Nice cars and welcome! Are you running spacers for the Konig Feathers??? I wanted a set for my 2011 but didn't think they'd clear the brembos, I know you're 5x100 and i'm 5x114.3 so that may make some difference. I asked a vendor and they said to run a spacer to help clear the Brembos so I...

    WHAT TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????

    <unbiased>Keep the 2004, it's more raw the styling is awesome, new car payment will be more (probably) and you'll have that payment for longer (probably)</unbiased> <biased> Get a 2011, or a 2012 with blacked headlights (that chrome stuff is ugly imo). The interior is less ricey, you get HIDs...

    Finally.

    http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html you can calculate rough overall tire sizes there btw if anyone wanted to, looks like 2.2" difference in circumference, your diff is pissed its fighting that amount of slip per rotation

    Finally.

    9mm difference = center diff is in danger, please match all 4 tire ASAP!!
  15. D

    Finally.

    I hope that your rear tires were already new, because running varying tread depths front/rear can eat your center diff. Friend with a WRX did this and his center diff lasted 5k miles before it died. Food for thought, replace all 4 tires if tread depth is greater than 10% difference (that is...

    DierwulfBL's 2011 WRB STi - Reverse Build!

    Been awhile since the last update. Ordered some Project Kics 7-sided blue lugs and some all-season yokohama Avid Envigors for my off-season wheels. Also got a 50% heat deflection carbon tint thats 35%. Here's a pic of my "winter" setup. Please note I will not be running snow tires for the 1 day...

    New Subaru BRZ coupe info.... and an STI version!

    2800lbs != lightweight, my 1900lb crx is lightweight, a 2100lb miata is lightweight. The only time light, underpowered cars are fun is on a road racing track or autocross, any other time I'll take the overpowered pig. Also, putting a turbo on a factory N/A car the proper way is going to run your...

    New Subaru BRZ coupe info.... and an STI version!

    no turbo + no awd = not impressed Until the ACTUAL car is available at a dealership its also pointless speculating what it will look/what it will have based off the concept, as the actual car generally looks/has nothing like any of the concepts. It gives you the very most basic idea. 2012...

    DierwulfBL's 2011 WRB STi - Reverse Build!

    hahaha i didn't peep out all his stickers I remember seeing a dakine sticker but its a 04/05 stock wheels painted black, but yea his rear spoiler was in pretty bad shape paintwise and I remember him saying the BOV was a source of a leak around 19psi, but if its opening at idle then he's got...
