Published (2009-11-13 13:26:00)
My car had Bosch platinum plugs that weren't but a couple years old in it and I swapped in some NGK copper BKRs at the stock gap (.44) and my idle is dead on now. I never had a problem before but the idle would surge slightly and the tach would jump just a little bit and now it sits there and barely quivers at all.

Put the new control arms on and its phukd still. Bottom is still pushed in on the front and rear. Rear may be able to compensate with cam bolts, the front no way.. Anyone have a link to the collision manual so I can measure points on the frame?

yeah, for the MSP I'm going with 225/50's.. but since the P5 and non-MSP sedans are clocked for a smaller tire, I'd just drop a little profile height if it were me. shouldn't hurt anything..

I've got the bottom kit...bought it from Xenon Expert for whatever his sale prices is ($70 I think) and it works great. I would go with the lifetime...that stuff is eventually going to wear out or something, and it's nice to be able to just send it back. That's my 2 cents. Here's the link to the sale http://www.xenonexpert.com/ddm_kit_sale.html .

Exhaust Noise
Ok, so basically I have a Racing Beat catback. I've been running stock hangers for about a month or 2. And I finally got fed up with the constant squeaking so I invest in a pair of corksports exhaust hangers. Put the 12's on the back and the 10's on the cat. I used zip ties around the hangers like posted in the how to....

someone did do this for an autoX setup. I believe the consensus that a small spacer up front and heavy rear fender rolling was required. maybe spacer in back too, I didn't pay much attention... SORRY! lol

I would build the P5. Why buy a WRX that has problems already when you can build a new forged engine for the P5 for around the same price IMO.

Turbos don't kill engines. Idiots that up the boost too high do. My recommendation would be to save yourself a ton of money and do what you can yourself or learn how. On the harder stuff that you can't do yourself, then you can pay for labor, but for the basic things you'd be able to do it yourself such as spark plugs, exhaust, CAI.

Does it affect your driving at all? Looks like just a plastic cover/shield thing.
