Neat! Did you or SubaruNation ever take pics of your battery relocation? Trunk I assume? I'm looking for visuals of how that can be done (well).

There's a struts and springs conversion and fit guide sticky...is there anything similar on coilovers? I'm looking at used coilovers on Nabisco and all they give me is 5x100 and perhaps the year car they have - but WRX folks are posting coilovers on the GC8 used fs as well so I'm confused... I know ...

Cool. Love to see how it comes out. I'm going to do mine this way next year and is different from how they are typically done. i.e. the IC is "inverted" and not the largest possible size because of where it loops back to the engine - under the headlights! Only the very cool people (time at...

Sorry to hijack but this might be a useful upgrade for high boost applications and have been trying to get clear on the benis.

I plumbed in an MBC and a larger BPV meant for a VW/Audi, and the symptoms have pretty much disappeared. I've hear about upgrading BPV and that there's a VW one out there. I've seen it but never found the specs on how much different it is from stock. It is made of metal but features X lbs spring? D...

It will fit in that it will bolt up but if not fully functioning is it fitting? And then if you are cool with that then o.k. The air bag in the wheel won't function and adds lots of bulk to the center of the wheel and makes it heavy but some people really like that wheel so if that's you then go for...

It's the interface for the wiring through the steering column and helps align the wheel. Got to scoobymods.com for a write up of installing the wheel you are thinking of (WRX Momo into Forester but same thing) but when you tear into yours you it won't look like that one because we have older cars an...

It will fit but you won't have an airbag. You need a different clockspring and rewiring the harnass to the bag is a DIY only -shops wont touch it because of liablity. Basically a huge PITA. But I think horn is plug and go...

While we're on the topic...does anyone know how strong the internal wastegate actuator is on a JDM "standard" TD05-16g? i.e. how much boost you can run before you get wastegate flutter?

...trying to decide if external wastegate is in order.

Thanks in advance, ~AW
