+1 for AZPInstalls. I know the owner well and they are my go-to for Subaru work. They set up my previous STI & BRZ track cars.

Agree. At $400 - a box, LOC, and install is a great price.

The point of the line out converter is to get low-level RCA inputs for your sub amplifier. Aftermarket headunits already have the RCA output so that's why it's easy to wire directly to the amp.

Correct! That's a good plan IMO. For timing being pulled that much - you should definitely feel it on the butt dyno pretty after re-flashing.

Not immediately, it would happen over time. A battery pull for a few mins should reset it. A re-flash would accomplish the same though as well (if it's faster).

You'll be fine. I always just plugged holes like those and never had any issues with leaks. A plug & patch would be 100%.

Thanks! I taped the mic on the rear bumper, maybe about 4 inches from the passenger-side exhaust tip. I think I use a medium FOV and I like it because you get to see out the side windows as well.

I played my luck and eventually they got me. I got an orange parking ticket for the no front plate and yes, it's not a fix-it ticket. Ended up getting the grimmspeed tow-hook mount.

Yeah, do yourself a favor and get them to fix it to ~-1 to -1.5 camber in the front to make use of your camber bolts. Rear you can't do anything about without aftermarket camber adjustment.

You definitely do not want positive camber ever :)


Judging by the question about negative camber, I assume these camber figures above are negative and not positive, right?

My vote is for the Red PP. MSRP for a PP car is 29660. Definitely do not settle for 28500 though, you should have more negotiation room, especially considering the car is at 54 miles.
