    Red looks great. I'd love to see a pic from a bit farther away ;)

    Engine noise

    Now THATS the kind of dealer you want! Glad to hear it's not an issue!

    Tires that leak...sometimes.

    Wow you check pressures daily? If I'm being honest i'm pretty terrible about checking pressures. I only do it on 2 occasions. 1) Before performance driving. 2) When I suspect pressures of being low (visual abnormality, car pulling, car tells me). I guess I should do that more. And...

    Engine noise

    Definitely need a video. If you live near the dealership, I'd swing by and have a tech listen, since you're definitely still under warranty.

    2013 STI with a xona 95-67

    Never heard of them either. How'd you end up picking it up if you dont know anyone running it?

    Steering Control Module Failure

    Welcome. That's scary! I've never had any sort of issue like that...so what does the steering control module do, control the power assist?

    Tail as turn with backup led lights

    After watching the youtube, it really does feel like this is how it should've been done from the factory. Looks great! :tup:

    *2012 STI BUILD* Looking for tips and directions

    Mirroring some other replies... If you're going in with no experience you may quickly find yourself in over your head. 1) How did you come up with this particular list? 2) Do you have any budget to get a shop to install these for you? 3) If "no" to #2 , maybe return some of the parts to free...

    2019 STI Brake Pads

    Yeah, that really wouldn't surprise me. A lot of those types of problems come down to user error. Probably next is bad luck. But you really should be fine with them. If you do go ceramic, let us know how you like them!

    My first check engine light!

    Ok some VERY quick googling led me to that it very well could be something amiss with the blue clips related to the sensor. I'd unplug it and see if there's anything obvious (like loose connection, dirt, bent pins, etc...) Not my pic:

    My first check engine light!

    Could just be the sensor. I'm not sure how hard it would be to swap sensors from bank-to-bank and see if it stays consistent or not, but might be worth a shot. I'd definitely check for loose wiring though before spending some dough!

    Hello from New Mexico

    Sudden06STI Welcome! Love the OBP, looks great, but gonna need some bigger pics than that! Got any suspension mods to match that power? And tell us more about the car--did you build it yourself (either physically turn wrenches, or while you owned it), or did you buy it like that? How do you...

    2019 STI Brake Pads

    Man, i feel like brakes pads are like oil--everyone has a differing opinion on them! I personally have liked Hawk pads in the past but not sure I've used the HPS. They're both top-notch brands so I wouldnt hesistate to get either. Here's the tire-rack site that compares the...

    Manual Oil Extractor/Pump

    I bought mine from Amazon, but waited for a cushy warehouse deal on it. If you're not aware there are some price alert tools you can set up to email you if the price drops to where you want it. I dont know how i lived without Keepa (the one that i use). Camel Camel Camel is another popular one.

    Should i get an STI or a WRX

    I took the liberty of moving this to its own thread! As pat said, it's history can change a lot. First, a "stock" 04 is very likely to have been modified and put back to stock later. What mods did it have...who knows. How was it driven...who knows. No car, outside of an EV, really likes 1-2...

    Hello everyone, new member here.

    Welcome! I dont think the pic attached. What mods, if any do you plan to do to the 50th? If you're looking for a project car, what are your requirements? I'd think they'd be low if you're basically going to start over and build it from scratch.

    Hi from NC !

    Just seeing this now. Welcome and holy crap your job is the type I'd kill for! We're gonna need lots of old 'war stories' and anecdotes!

    Show us your PC Gaming Rig!

    I'm gonna make the leap and try to essentially strap my PC to the underside of my desk. Should make my desk cleaner...theoretically. Also for sure going to return my GPU. Its unstable as hell. At this point people say drivers are pretty stable, so it must be a bad card. I got another...

    Welcome! It's a blast in the snow. However you end up with the car, any more on it--now or planned? Any track days in your future?:D
