If I'm single driving, I'll pull back into grid and let it idle while I shutoff camera/data and reset tire pressures (usually a few minutes), then I'll shut off engine. I've found oil temps drop...

Shiv told me that on the OFT the O2S2 and Wideband AFR readings are not accurate - fwiw. O2S2 will always read 0.0v.

Alright I finally resolved the issue. The O2 sensor was threaded in fine. I replaced the O2 sensor and that fixed it.

So to summarize, during periods of extended cruise I was seeing AFR's drop...

Tested these tunes out, and for my car they seem a little too aggressive. I was getting up to -3.9 FLKC consistently at high load high rpm in 2nd gear autocross. On the previous tune I only ever...

This. Especially since the V3 comes with some very soft spring rates now, so you have to factor the price of a new pair of springs into the V3. 230/280 F/R I believe. Too soft for STX.

I just started logging autocross, but I get higher lateral G's than braking. Here's the gg plot. Typical STX trim (coilovers, camber plates, 245 RE71R 17x9, etc).

'02-'05 WRX were quite a bit less powerful since it has the 2.0 motor - the '06-07 had the 2.5. On paper it made about the same power but in reality the 2.5 is a lot faster than the 2.0.

I place mine under the front driver seat. Does a good job of getting rid of wind noise - depending on the mic too, some sort of windscreen might help too.

It might not have been OP's issue, but any KW-based coilover changes the distance from the endlink mount to the strut mount, so a shorter endlink is usually needed. In addition, the WL bar is shaped...

The number is printed on the side of the spring - KW prints the rate in N/mm and the length in mm. So the 343/400 were 170mm length and 60 N/mm in the front and 70 N/mm in the rear (60-170, 70-170)....

The longer spring will provide more travel before coil bind. May or may not be an issue depending on the setup. Also the 6" spring will be marginally heavier, if that makes a difference to you.
