  1. My dad's Honda Pilot had wiring or fuel lines eaten by mice. Apparently it's so common that Honda sells rat or mouse deterring tape to wrap around the wiring or lines (I think it's spicy or something)
  2. I found on a few sites "BLITZ STRUT TOWER BAR Rear (96101)". I ordered from https://www.japanparts.com/parts/detail/?id=55747 . I don't know if it will be structurally supportive (obviously I hope it will be) or just show-y bling with no performance increase. I had been looking for a rear bar for a while and SSD doesn't sound like they're coming out with one anytime soon. I'll update about fitment and if I notice anything.
  3. Suspension settled so I went back and had them do the front pads n rotors, Perrin steering rack damper, SSD front strut tower brace, and the final alignment. Car is a lot more confident feeling, flatter all around with less body roll and not at all as harsh as I was expecting. I'd like to do the front alk because while the car is flatter around curves, the most body movement I get is accelerating and stopping.
  4. Ahh ok. What's weird is the stop tech rotors for the WRX fit last time and they were out of those so I got the DBA and they wouldn't fit. I ended up doing the front DS2500 pads with centric full face rotors and as soon as I sell the dba and rear pads I'll do my rears probably centric full face rotor and I'll have to see what pad options are available because I don't see DS2500 rears.
  5. I just stumbled upon this https://www.cntracing.com/products/cnt-racing-uel-header-2012-2017-fb25-na-subaru-legacy-forester
  6. Ah, the front pads fit, the front rotors fit last time, they were stoptech, the dba dont and the WRX doesnt have a electronic ebrake so the rears dont. I'm asking a few WRX buddies if they need brakes hopefully I can sell em soon and buy Legacy rotors and rear pads
  7. The car should have came like this from the factory. I still have to go back for my final alignment after it settles but it's much improved!
  8. I was piecing together the Whiteline rear essentials kit and I got to KDT940. KDT940 and KDT906 are very close, it comes down to sizing. Has anyone done this and know which our cars use?
  9. I have the wrong rotors front AND rear and the rear pads were wrong so I got just suspension work done and I'll have to come back for the brake work
  10. Whiteline front strut tops dont fit, I'm glad I also had a set of new OEM ones. DBA front rotors dont fit, I was told before the suspension and brakes were interchangeable with the WRX and the Legacy, last time I did the fronts I swear I ordered the stoptech slotted rotors for the WRX. They're gettin me front rotors that'll fit and I'll still get the upgraded braking with the DS2500s. I'll see how the rest goes, if I have anything else that's wrong, hopefully not. P.S. they couldn't possibly be nicer, cool shop
  11. After dicking around waiting for my friends garage to have an opening I got impatient and booked with AZP, probably a better move because they're in the performance industry and have done work like this frequently. I'm getting springs, struts, rear lcas, rear toe arms, whiteline front strut tops, ferodo DS2500 pads and dba 4000 slotted rotors. I'm holding off on the STi wheels and tires in my basement til maybe march or so, then run them from March or April til next October then put the all seasons back on.
  12. I have new front struts with Koni yellows inserted, koni yellow rears, and whiteline springs
  13. I was getting everything together for the shop to assemble the insert assemblies so I can swap em out with the oem assemblies when I noticed one of the insert assemblies doesn't have the black protective rubber boot on it. I email Koni to see about getting a replacement and they were confirming the model number with me so I checked my amazon account and it says I ordered the 1447 not the 1453's. Part of me thinks I noticed this before and ordered the 1453's and sold the 1447s but I cant find a receipt from any other websites I may have ordered from. If I hadn't ordered the 1453s and I sent the 1447s along with the OEM 2.5Premium front struts to get them installed, is there any chance they fit? I'm continuing to look for another order of the 1453s hoping I noticed and fixed the mistake.
  14. I had replaced them with Potenza RE970 but now I need tires again. I'm looking at the RE980 and the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4
