If you want a daily driver you cant go wrong with the BRZ or the WRX. The STI is a whole nother ball game because its stiff asf and a hassle to DD. Its pretty easy to learn manual desu

Definitely feeding the stereotype, though it is true and unfortunate most enthusiast vape now, along with the vaping comes a beard used as a cushion for all the dicks in their mouths.

>>15809806
Thanks for the heads up. I didn't drive the WRX (non-STI), got any experience with it? The STI seems really cool (but maybe that's just the 12 year old inside of me). Also, how do these compare to the Focus RS?

And for learning manual, I already ride a motorcycle so I guess the skills should transition pretty easily, right?

I own a WRX, (bic related). Its a solid daily driver with a good bit of OOMF. The transmission is.... unique and takes some getting used to but its great overall. The focus RS is ~40k so it would be comparable to the STI. I think that since its new to the US it has quite a bit of problems and quirks that need to be fixed for it to be a viable choice. IIRC it was having grip problems with the drift mode

>>15809942
Oh and if you look around im sure you can find someone to do it for around ~$50-ish. When I noticed it was peeling off I was pissed and called the tinting fella and he was professional about it and gave me a refund. Thats one of the good things about high-end companies

I have an impreza 1.6 liter. It red lines at 6500 and it's not very fast off the line. It handles well, but when a car is this slow I can't help but feel that any car would be able to handle so well.

I've got an outback with the plastic manifold ez30. Weighing up whether to get the raptor supercharger kit. Easy install plus a tune for some extra giggles.

Plans to toss a 12 in the trunk cause the stock speakers don't hit lows. And prolly grab some nice coilovers and drop it a inch for a better look in the summer and max them out in the winter for lifted brotruck status.

I'd never done it before either, so I spent half a can on trial and error before getting the technique down. pretty goddamn easy to get good results, once you get the hang of it.

I did 6-7 really thin layers, with 20 minute pause between them. and let them harden in the shade, outside.

if you're not happy you just tear it off, clean the surface and start spraying again. its dirt cheap and seems pretty durable as well.

>>15814356

if you've got a compressor, you'll make the job a lot easier. if not, the spray cans are alright. just be sure to shake all the time while using. and always do one thin layer at a time, so each layer can spread out and harden nicely, without getting blotchy and ass.

'01 impreza, manual transmission. Weird grinding sound when coasting in gear, clutch out. Coming from the transmission area.
Any ideas what it is?

Recently got this STI that has a Greddy turbo timer and i don't know how to set it up or if it's even worth it so i just leave it off, should i utilize it? Also as weird as it sounds i'm not too much a fan of the short throw shifter how would one go about getting that to shift like stock again? And last, it also has some sort of K&N intake system that makes me nervous since it's probably running lean with no tune, not sure if it's a big deal since i got a good bumper to bumper warranty but still..

obviously at a junkyard or some kind of lot

why so cheap tho

Unless the previous owner replaced the stock turbo you don't need a turbo timer since the coolant will continue to circulate just from residual heat in the system after you turn the car off.

How careful do I need to be when cleaning a dirty WRX engine bay?

03 Forester

I have a ticking that I was told is a lifter. It's not there when the engine is cold, but gets to it's loudest when warmed up and then its on and off with the noise level. If I get to about 2.5k rpm it fades away. Any clue what it'll cost?

>>15811036
Get the rex. Mine is the shit. Nearly as fast as the STI with 1.5x the gas mileage. Not to mention 10k cheaper. Not sure about the handling limits, I haven't found the wrx's yet.

When is the new impreza stuff gonna trickle down to the WRX? Talking about the Android Auto head units and that new spoiler.

I'm in no rush, just rebuilt the engine in my shit box grand prix and I have my jeep to drive in the meantime
