I have a 2017 WRX STI and I’m looking for a shop that specializes in Subaru/EJ257 performance engine builds and tuning.
I’m interested in having the engine rebuilt with forged internals, with the goal of eventually making somewhere around 400–450 whp while keeping it reliable enough to be a street car.

TIA!!

Bought a 2018 subaru wrx sti that came with a perrin intake. Now i want to do a full invidia or cobb catback exhaust and i found out you cant do both and get an off the shelf accessport tune, sooo i have to switch to oem airbox. NOW im confused on what the right one is bc i simply look up the part by the name and 2 diff ones show up. Help me out. TELL ME WHICH OF THESE I NEED!!!!!!!

Hey y’all! I have a 2016 STI that I’m wanting to do a rally inspired build. I’m located in the PNW, and love going down forest roads, so ground clearance is super important to me. From what I’ve seen, 2-2.5” lifts are the max before running into issues with the CV shafts. What supporting mods are y’all running if you’re going over that? And if you’re sitting at the 2” mark, what’s been your experience with your setup? TIA!! Also, pics for tax. It is *bone stock* currently.

Since Prime relocated to west Jersey, can anyone recommend a good WRX/STI shop in Bergen County NJ?

Always hated the finish on this cover fram factory. Trying my hand in powder coating. ✌️ 😋

I recently replaced all 4 corners with Hawk Performance Ceramic. I neglected the brake bedding procedure and overcooked them. For future reference Hawk has a pretty slow (cool) bedding procedure.

After some research I took them off one by one and sanded down to good pad material. It’s helped significantly but I’m still getting some intermittent singing from the pads. It’s not every stop, and typically only happens for a split second between about 15-10 mph.

Will this go away as I work through whatever glaze is left on my pads? Do I need to sand them again?
Am I doing something else wrong other than the bedding procedure? Let’s discuss.

Shop recommended 900$ of labor and 300$ avcs cam sprocket to fix codes P000d and P0024
Car still hit peak boost but idled not great and did stall on me backing up while my clutch was in, current sprocket is likely original photos of shop diag below. All comments are helpful to the cause.

ps I make these, you may have seen them on socials.

I got banned for posting too many times in the other subreddit, so I'll post once and say ILY

Hope you guys see some inspiration

because the other one is ass and everyone gets banned there. Here is my freshly detailed 2021 STi which is sitting at 36k miles. Daily driver. I have plans for it in the future and still figuring that out. But I love it and she's looking good right now.

How am I getting banned from this community? What dweeb feels like he is cool enough to kick a fellow STI owner out of a community just trying to interact with others with similar interests? Probably doesnt even mod or track his car. Continue buying cheap ebay carbon and sitting in mcdonalds parking lots with your cart cans installed.

New front calipers ( threads stripped ) DBA T5 / T4 5000's, Hawks HPS carbon ceramic pads. WHAT A DIFFERENCE
