I used to get all my OEM parts from subaruparts.com 10 yrs ago when I was doing things on my 2002 (hah hah including the pain in the ass donut gasket between the cat and the catback as it was nearly impossible to remove without destroying it). Its actually a Subaru dealership that does the website on the side but they are not allowed to tell people they are. Always got great service and prices back then. Haven't needed to buy any OEM gaskets etc on my BRZ yet but I was happy to see they started listing BRZ parts on their site!

Well here it is this Saturdays meet location and time! I haven't had the chance to speak with anyone from the restaurant yet but I think this location will work perfect regardless! https://www.facebook.com/events/237951696329093/ Please RSVP if you plan on attending or you can comment on here or private message me. Also if you plan on bring someone with you be sure to let me know of that too! If whoever gets there first could make an attempt to block off some parking that'd be awesome as well! Hope to see everyone there!

Ugh! Missing this meet most likely because of part installs and body kit installation. I will have to catch up with you guys at the next meet or next Oasis gathering.

Let me know if you go. I need to install the BC's I snagged from DTS. However, I am sure this means we would probably both have to use that 4 arm. Unless there is a way to make it work with the 2 arm?

Save your money. That can all be done with jacks in a parking space. (Doing it again this weekend.) You'll be paying a lot in hourly rates because the job is time consuming more than difficult.

QFT. I would only rent bay time if I needed to be under the car (like I will be today, installing headers)

I did that earlier this week on two jack stands too! lol. Had to torque mine up to 35 ft lbs to prevent any leaks. Don't go with stock torque recommendations. It's way too light. I recommend the bay for headerback exhausts though because of the need to align the exhaust then go through and tighten it. That should be a quick install for you though. Make sure you anti-seize your header bolts on the stock header. Otherwise, you may cuss a lot.

Yeah... I had to dremel one of my nuts on the header bolt off, then since I was re-using the stock header, plasma torched new holes into it to mate with an aftermarket downpipe. Total pain in the ass.
