(side-note 1: If you have Enkei RPF1's 17x9 +45, you will need a 5mm space to clear the calipers)
(side-note 2: The FHI WRX brakes are a nice caliper upgrade because of their obviously low cost compared to the Brembo's, and you also lose approximately 2lbs per caliper compared to stock)

Next up was to fix a leaking valve-stem on one of my RPF1's. I would lose 10 PSI over night, and had to keep pumping it up every morning until I finally fixed it over the weekend.

And finally, I installed the OEM cat-back exhaust and sold the TRD cat-back. It was just a little too loud for me; the volume, the drone, etc. Maybe i'm just getting older?



I also have a request; I want most of this thread to be filled with helpful info and updates, not random comments/questions. If you have questions, please just PM me. I'll gladly answer any of your questions. I was just hoping to keep this thread as more of a journal than a chat. Thank you.

What year/model do you search for on RockAuto for the brakes? Any bracket needed to install?
