  1. I had similar issues with General tires in the past. I was on 235/40 vice your 235/45 though. Do you by any chance store the car/tires for a prolong period of time? I was instructed to get the tires remounted and if that didn't fix it I would have to purchase four new tires. In my case though I was already pass the warranty period. Hopes this helps.
  2. Talk about sleeper. Hope you got at least 5k out of it.
  3. CA can now determine if your ecu has been remapped and when so it is an automatic State Ref. You are very familiar with my car, as you know it would never run on OEM mapping. I decided it was time to move on. In other words CA broke my car enthusiast spirit at least for now. If and when I leave CA perhaps I'll go down the rabbit hole once more. For now I'll stick to mods that are CA friendly.
  4. Hi Mike I ended up selling the Spec B (I know). The new owner was impressed with the build quality. Thanks for all the help throughout the years, hope all is well.
  5. My brother is in that neck of the woods. Just moved right before the pandemick started. Maybe I drive it over ?
  6. Gentleman. I've made the difficult choice of selling my Spec B. I now have to decide how I want to price it. No matter how much I think about it I will most certainly lose quite a bit of money. My hope is someone here in the forums will jump at the chance of buying a really well sorted Spec B with top of the line parts. This decision was not made in haste, nor is it an easy one. All this to ask you Legacy gurus what you think its a fair price for my Spec B. Here's a short list of the main components but not all. Vehicle Specs: 2007 Spec B Forged SB ( CP 9.0:1 Compression Pistons) Outfront Motorsports Custom Rods (Equal to or better than Manley Turbo-Tuff) Dom 1.5 XT-R, 10CM, 2.4 Inlet, Internal Wastegate ETS FMIC KSTech 73mm Intake with heat shield TGV deletes with phenolic spacers Secondary Air Pump Delete AVO Inlet Killer B Holy Header w/ uppipe Grimspeed Catted Divorced Downpipe Infamous Stromung V2 Exhaust Grimspeed 3 port EBCS DW 1300cc Injectors DW300 IAG Fuel rails (Ran in parallel) Southbend Stage 2 Endurance Clutch STI OEM SM Flywheel Delicious Tuning MK2 Flex Fuel Kit with custom dyno tune from Bill himself. Accessport V3 Gramlights 57DR (17 x 9 +38) RCE Tarmac T1 Coilovers Stoptech BBK (Front & Rear) JDM Double DIN (With Pioneer Radio) There's a lot more but these are the big item mods. The chassis has a little over 205k miles. Engine somewhere in the 15-20k miles. Thanks everyone.
  7. I almost did the Outback hood when I swapped to a fmic, now that I've seen it done I wish I had.
  8. Do you stil have the front passenger Spec B door card? Thanks
  9. You have described my situation down to a T. California has been working towards destroying our industry/hobby for over two decades now and I'd argue they are within grasp of their goal. At this point I would be better off buying a car that already sits at over 350 whp from factory and focus exclusively on suspension mods and wheels. Otherwise if I'm to remain in California and continue to enjoy my hobby I'll have to start projects based on vehicles from 1994 and below.
  10. I have given this serious consideration, I have family in Florida, Maryland, Arizona and Louisiana. So far Florida leads the race. Push comes to shove I might actually ship the car out to Florida, put it into my dads name and use it when I go visit. That would be a shame though since it would only get driven maybe three times a year
  11. So.... Here I am considering the crazy idea of selling the Spec B and moving on. I absolutely love driving the car and have zero issues with it but for one thing; the ever more stringent Kamifornia smog laws. I have no clue how to price the car either. It has over 30k in improvements and no, I'm not naïve enough to believe I can recoup all of that but I also don't want to "give" the car away. Decisions, decisions....
  12. I wonder how they compare to my Stoptech setup. The price is great for those looking to upgrade from factory. Thanks for sharing
  13. Front axles are, but the rear Spec B axles are hybrids in order to work with the R180 diff in the rear.
  14. False alarm.... In my rush to get the car done for retuning I reversed the turbo coolant reservoir lines By the way I immediately started wishing you were still in business. Almost jumped the gun and bought a closed deck to use with the V25B cylinder heads that I'm still holding onto.
