Yep, no oil cooler of any kind from the factory on this car. In fact it's the only Subaru that doesn't have one, AFAIK.


I'm not 100% sure about the ATS brakes, but I'd guess that this probably messes up the brake bias.


Regarding harnesses, if the intention is to keep you in the seat better you should look at getting a CG Lock. They're designed to work with the OEM 3-point seatbelt and wouldn't negatively impact crash safety from the perspective of how it may interact with airbags, etc. It's also a lot cheaper than a harness bar and harnesses, and the only good harness bar ever made for our platform isn't offered anymore.


If you want harnesses, go full send and strip that sucker out and have a roll cage fabbed. If that's not your intention, stick to wearing the factory seat belt and use a CG Lock.
