You just have to rivet on that bad boy like all the stance kids do , don't bother making things fit !

I have only seen a few panel companies fit very well , I hope my Jun bumper fits well but I have been told their mold is very very good from a friend who bought one.

These are the companies I have seen fit well and ironically they are all in the $3000- $10,000 price range. The top two are GC specific but they do amazing work.

Center caps still on backorder though.

future iconic car deserves to look like iconic car ^^

great fitment but wow that drop in the front is low. how do u guys corner at track days? when my car was that low it was bump stop city, my roll center was below the asphalt and turn in would be OK but approaching apex, the car would just push due to the outside wheel toeing outwards under the excessive suspension compression...

I’ve thought about buying spec c lights just for the cool factor of knowing that’s what they are. to my knowledge they’re no different though, yeah?

Yeah, the spec c/type ra's had the chrome reflector units without the amber lens over the city/park lights, other than that they look just like usdm lights.

I have not been on track since 2018 , I will be raising the car and possibly even running 18x9 wheels next year.

Ideally you need max shock travel and a roll center correction kit from like Super Pro.

Car will be raised with the following alignment settings which will change depending on what the tire looks like

Camber
-3 F
-2 R

Zero toe

RHD cutoffs and like stated below they lack the amber lens due to different safety regulations.

Yah i read about the roll center adapters and even extended lower ball joints etc.
Seemed like a lot of compensation to get the car to drive right at that ride height - esp if u like twistys.

In other news i took the dive and my car is nowfull SPEED DENSITY. The ability to have maf blending is really useful in getting up to speed but after spending a few weeks road tuning my boost/wot side the table, this was an hr and it seems to be great so far. No response issues that i read about with new platforms like the frs and brz.

No track days for mine anymore. Basically comes out of the garage for spirited drives and car meets. I am rolled and pulled so even with the Valino Pergia 245/40/17's I barely rub on aggressive corners/curves.

Anyone know any sites to get fairly (or lower) priced OEM parts?

I wanted to replace
-Coilpacks
-MAF
- O2 sensors.

Im about to build my motor and figured these are good parts to refresh with the new build.

Subarupartsdeal.com is another one, but Brian at OEM Subi Parts (Heuberger Subaru) is really easy to deal with. If you email him, he might be able to get the coils/maf sensor.

Weird question, but does anybody know the part number for the plastic pops that hold the spec c roof vent trim peice in place? They almost look the same as ones used in the fender well but grey. I have a roof scoop waiting to install and thats the only thing i need.
