  1. I've got them both on full soft. I will say the rep at Koni said you really cant test these by hand. Only a dyno can tell if they are working properly. I just can't believe there would such a significant difference in the force required to compress the piston in 2 identical struts.
  2. Ok, so now I'm not so sure which one of mine is functioning the way it should. This is the one I thought might be deffective, but it seems to operate like the video amidroc posted. https://youtu.be/ZzLU7cLzJ9Y This is the one I thought was maybe normal. I figured it was ok that it required a significant amount of force to compress it. But it requires much less force to extended it. To compress it I have almost my complete body weight on it. Could something have happened when I installed it in the strut housing? https://youtu.be/1j4mML_SMUg
  3. I contacted them already and they said they have 17 units available, thank God! They just didn't seem to want to say for sure this was defective only telling me I can submit it for a warranty claim if I'd like. I would be pretty pissed if they deny this based on it being used on a Legacy, when all I've done is remove it from the box. Although they do require a copy of the vehicle registration with the warranty submission. Worth a shot I guess.
  4. I'm finally getting around to installing my Konis I bought last year. One of my front struts requires a lot of force to move the piston and the other one moves quite easily. I can also at points hear air bubbling and I hear the oil sloshing when I shake the strut of the one that moves easily. I made sure the adjustment on both are set to the softest. This has got to be a defective strut right? What amount of force should be required to move the piston?
  5. I run a hybrid valve with about 30-40% venting. I get the blow off sound with no ill effects.
  6. Is it absolutely necessary to replace everything in these diagrams? I put it all in my cart and its about $450! Would it be worthwhile to take mine apart, inspect, and replace only things that are necessary. I can afford downtime since I have a DD. I have the Koni inserts with Eibach springs and going to reuse my stock strut mounts.
  7. I was planning on waiting a little bit longer to do the suspension, but now I have 4 Konis and a 22mm RSB with end links on their way. Konis getting paired with the Eibachs I have sitting on the shelf.
  8. I used this for my phone on my previous car and liked it a lot. Very solid and a clean look. I need to get this for my Legacy to mount my phone on again. https://www.panavise.com/pdf_indash/75134-310.pdf https://www.panavise.com/index.html# As far as my AP, I just use the windshield suction in the bottom left corner. It tucks in that corner nicely and the cable it routed easily down to the OBDII port. It stays out of my direct line of sight, but I can keep and eye on it easily.
  9. Forget the the Invidia DP, get in on the Nameless DWG DP group buy. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/group-buy-nameless-performance-2010-legacy-gt-divorced-wastegate-downpipe-243956.html
  10. That's crazy, only 227 '12 GTs were made! I can't understand why this car is not more popular. That's ok, I like cars that not everybody else has.
