How heavy is this kit? Seems like a lot of extra weight to toss on for minimal gains in braking. I think it's cool someone is making a kit though, and will definitely be following any progress or news.Why not just build a small bracket for a simple standalone ebrake caliper and an adapter for...

I'd like a set as well.

IIRC that's a very similar spec as the One-Lap car, take a look at all their threads for info and pics.

Yep. Griffin core.Thanks guys.

Been working on my galant lately, planning to daily drive it for a bit and ordered up a big scirocco radiator as my old radiator was leaking. Looks like the inlet at the bottom is a larger diameter than stock and the top hose will be a slightly different path than stock.What are you guys with...

Love your car Jordan. Definitely one of my favorites of all time.

Just checking. I had some serious issues when the frame of my pedal assembly cracked, which caused excessive flexing and twisting with the heavy clutch, and also caused the whole firewall to deflect. The clutch pedal and the mechanisms were all fine, but everything was flexing so much that no...

Can you hear any noise (with motor not running), any noise whatsoever when you press the clutch pedal in?

I voted no. To be specific I had my PLX in the stock location using the narrow out to the ecu. Ecu is chipped, but factory. Without changing anything and putting the stock O2 back in and the wideband in the recommended location down stream the car actually ran noticeably better. Just my...

Quoting Turbowop: And while it's not like this with the Galant, I just hate to see Evo guys take off a perfectly good set of BBS just to install some cheap Rotas.True.

And yes. 245 will probably be the biggest you want to go on a 16x8.You could go 255, but it might not gain you much. Also, with a 16x8 you probably don't want anything higher than a 38mm offset.

Quoting turbowop: What's the saying all the high dollar wheel whores use? If you're spending more on tires than on wheels, you're doing it wrong?I personally wouldn't use cheap wheels either. Great deals can be had on quality wheels...you just gotta know where to look.fno1rc's are cheap...

I have a chinese m parallel in the garage. 9.5" wheel, tried to test fit it, but the mounting pad is solid (no indents like some wheels) so I couldn't even get it flush up to the rotor. This wheel is toast, so one of these days I'll drill it out to 5x114 and test fit it again. I know at it's...

Where do you find M parallels cheap? Last I looked they are decently expensive.

I don't know much about the rules of rally (and definitely not for australia), but I seem to remember that campaigning a 2wd car is easier than an awd. Which is why 90% of the time people that are new to rally do a rwd or 2wd car. Not to imply you're new, but based on this I can see why one...

Saw iceman post this the other day. www.partsreplacementstore.comYou could probably clamp it to the strut and run one of the bolts through a rubber and steel brake line clamp. Maybe they make ones like this that are lower profile and less bulky

Quoting jepherz: Too low, IMO, but looks great other than that. Why don't you have your dad machine some aluminum plates instead of just using washers on the bottom side of the strut towers? You'd restore the strength of the stock set up being mounted underneath. I've seen some plates set up...

Get lightness, it becomes the weapon, the greatest offensive power!!Looks good dude!

Quoting mitsuturbo: WHOA! I totally missed that he's mentioned 235/40 on EIGHTEEN inch wheels..Yeah, that would be a good size for 17's, but for 18's i can see why it's not fitting very well.Yep. My 255/40/17's are fuckin gigantor, definitely not ideal for most driving. His 18's are...

Quoting 1971: 18x7.5 +48 with 235/40 tires. -2 degrees camber lowered two inches and I rub up front when I hit any bump.Your massive rolling diameter doesn't help much. That's at least an inch larger than stock.

Quoting mitsuturbo:Quoting kartorium: I run a s2000 knob painted white. It was a freebie, but I've grown to like it.Wrong threads. I'd have to change something for this to fit properly. Hondas use a 10x1.5 thread. Mitsu uses a 10x1.25IIRC I re-threaded the shifter. Might have...

I run a s2000 knob painted white. It was a freebie, but I've grown to like it.

I run some Elemental Design woofers in the stock locations in the rear deck. IIRC they are between 7 and 8 inch woofers. They are just right for me, they get down low if I want them too, but more provide that smooth tight clean bass that I like. It required trimming quite a bit of the stock...

Wow! This thread turned fun!Different setups give different results. The bottom line is that claiming you need to stretch tires a lot to create a stiff sidewall is bullshit. That applied 40 years ago, not now. The car will always have more grip and pull more G's with a tire that's...

Looks almost like an 8" rim to me. Just by how much stretch there is (seems like all the 205's on 9" I've seen look retardedly stretched) and how little the front pokes.... especially @ +28.Can you take a pic of the back of the wheel? Pics of clearance on the inside as well?That...

nice skis.... and a very nice car

Seems like a lot of hacking and BS just to make it fit less than well. Why didn't you just re-route the IC pipe, seems like a lot easier and cleaner way to make it work.

Honestly, if you're trying to get that aggressive with your stance you should really go to 18" wheels. It just gives you more clearance all the way around.

This car is coming together really nicely!

Glad you finally fixed that, the car is beginning to look really clean.All I've heard is negative stuff about the Ingalls arms over the years. Real ballers roll afco! Mark just hasn't reached that Rick Ross Boss status with ten shfifty juan yet

Pretty sure those are 17x8's.I think the only option for 17x8.5 is a +40 or +30 that would be remotely close to fitting our cars and the +30 would not work unless you were going for that stretch look and ran massive negative camber. I was going to get RPF1's about 4 or so years ago and...

The simple answer is; yes the rims will work, you just will most likely have to utilize a spacer in the rear.The thread on tuners is hilarious and full of garbage. Just delete that thread before it fills your brain with any more BS.

Dude! Someone cut a big ass hole in your hood! I vote new hood before wheels...

Our roads suck here, I try to run as much tire as I can.

First hand experience on my legacy.195/65/15 - Studded snow205/70/15 - Studded snowGranted these tires weren't the same tire and brand, but both were in great shape. The larger tire was leaps and bounds better in basically every condition I encountered (which is every condition...

My understanding is that the cross linking was because of the ABS system. Get rid of that and you essentially have a front line and a rear line. Put a proportioning valve in the rear and dial the pressure back. I look at it as a band aid, but that coupled with a new pad choice can give you...

As another point, with a 5mm spacer you most likely won't need new longer studs. Obviously every wheel is going to be different so you can't take that as true 100% of the time, but for most it should apply. I'm not sure about 10mm.On my particular setup, to run a 5mm spacer in the front, I...

^same, I do it partially just to make mine fit though.I run a 5mm spacer in the rear of my car with 8.5" @ +48 all around. Effectively a 43mm in back and 48 up front. I think what you want to do is run something more like a 40mm effective offset in the front, and run a 35mm or so in the...

Quoting BluFalcon: I like it! The R32 wing looks almost OEM and even kind of looks a bit like the AMG wing, but cleaner. Also blacking out the chrome strip on the car does go a long way to making the car look less "busy". Well done!Exactly. Very nice Paul!

Funny thing Jon, I was looking for a daily driver a couple weeks ago (another subaru) and wasn't finding anything that really sparked my interest. So my mom gets online and starts looking for cars for me. The next day she sends me a link to your car on here and says I should go buy it...

Are you running a different caliper bracket or a different rotor than what Todd offers?If you are, it would be a lot easier to just buy them from him. If you aren't, than even if you get someone here to give you dims, they'll probably be wrong.

Or you could just call Todd.

Shoot me an offer. I'm trying to have it hauled away by next week.

Getting rid of this now as I've pretty much finished stealing parts from it for my truck.Has nice Amp wheels and decent tires, not sure if anyone in the NW wants those (6 lug)? 400 OBO If possible I'd like to do a trade + cash for someones crappy wheels/tires so I can keep this rig...

Really dude?

I think it turned out great, and will work fine for what you're trying to accomplish. You did an awesome job building the setup too! Very clean.I was going to do this exact same thing back in like 2004 or so using a starion core. I ended up not doing it cause my car at the time got...

Would it really be that hard just to shift the AC condenser towards the bumper, or just run a smaller condenser? Seems easily do-able to me. That way you could run it in conjunction with the scirocco.

I agree with Andy. Double up the core or go to a radiator with more surface area.I wouldn't expect any of those options you show to make a positive difference. However, you've gotten that far with the duct, you might as well mount it and see for yourself.

Snowboarding for 13 yrs and you live in MN? What a miserable thought. Nice method though
