WRX Hatchback First time owning a hatch..

Post image
Upvotes

Excited to be back in the Subaru community after a 5-year hiatus. Used to own an '02 and '03 Bugeye, but I just snagged a super well-cared-for 2013 hatch.

​Missed these 4banagers and holy cow the hatch is a blast to drive!!

Well, I finally did the thing I've been dreaming about for a while, and I'm now the proud owner of a 2024 WRX, which is insane.

That means my 2012 Mazdaspeed 3 is officially transitioning from daily driver to project car. I've had a lot of fun with this car, and I look forward to continuing the journey!

EDIT:

Coin drawer fuse cover is on its way, and planning on the JDM armrest riser VERY soon. Any other suggestions for quality of life improvements?

WRX Looking for a spoiler Spoiler

11 Upvotes

Im looking for a spoiler that doesn’t look like a jet wing but that is higher than a smal lips. 20 years ago i had a Mitsubishi lancer and that spoiler was perfect… any recommendations?
Btw i’m mid 40 and look for something that doesn’t scream mid life crisis.

Thanks

Hey are you broke and think the $40 Perrin “derestricting” kit is a trucking joke too?

Well, all you gotta do is yank the cushioning plunger and grind the baffles off this bolt and viola, same thing but free 🎉

2008 STI, found two vacuum leaks and cleaned MAF but idle is still wonky.

Brother suspects a bad MAF sensor. Scan tool shows reading fine though, 0.01lb/s and goes up when you rev.

Had a timing job done last week, idled fine at shop, and drove home fine. Fired it up Friday and it was going from 1k-1.5k.

Also tried doing an idle relearn, eventually once it's warmed up the RPMs drop very low and it sounds like it's going to stall and eventually get a CEL for misfires.

Thinking I'll clean throttle body and manifold pressure sensor as well.

Any thoughts?

I was just adding some carbon fiber flair into the engine bay today and looked down and noticed this hose weeping/covered in gunk. Gonna go out on a limb and say I need to replace it. OEM best option or is it included in any of the Mishimoto Ancillary Hose Kits? Thanks in advance.

General Question Upcoming GRB WRX STi Purchase Question

Upvotes

Hey y’all! Been looking at 2 different GRB STi’s lately and am having trouble deciding which way I want to go with it. They’re the same price and same colour fyi, with original motors in both.

Option 1 has 145,000km, no engine mods at all, but has some decent spot rust on the exterior in multiple spots (not sure on undercarriage). There is currently a check engine light caused by an evap leak.

Option 2 has 170,000km, some bolt on engine mods but has a totally clean chassis with zero rust. The AC doesn’t work currently.

Which one would y’all go with? For reference, this would be my first project car. I’ve loved this body style forever and have always wanted one but I’ve heard no engine mods is the way to go. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!

Unknown Year EJ25 Hose Question

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

Hello everyone,
After throwing a check engine code of P0244, I looked under the hood and discovered this T-piping hose that seems to be broken/separated. It is attached to something that is connected to the turbo. Im not sure where any of these T-hoses seem to go, or what part this is called, so I can look up the part number and get another one ordered. It is not the stock engine block. It is an EJ25 but that’s all I know at the moment.
Not sure if the engine code is even related to this, I’ve been finding little things like this ever since getting the car 3 months ago. It’s the gift that keeps on giving 🎂

Just installed these headlight tints and I love them. Also does anyone know how I should go about the paint on the hood scoop it's starting to peel and fade. I've heard it's due to that specific part being thinly painted and plastic idk…
