Second gens returned to the 2013-2016 gear ratios.


I'm not aware of anybody running the 245/45R17 in STX or STR, the folks running 2017s seem to have used 255s or going to 18s with 265s

Considering the courses looked like ass, not sure I'd take much stock in it... but John has been mega fast and Annie's car is well set up. Matt isn't exactly slow either, so... idk.

I read the IRP as legal and the CAE is grey area because of the interior plastics trimming. Personally, I wouldn't care at all about the plastics being trimmed, but whatever.

I ordered STi motor and transmission mounts from RHDJapan on July 12th and they showed up today. So that makes it 9 days total shipped via DHL from Japan. RHDJapan had the best price, too.
