    Upgrading Stock Brakes

    Mounted ! the Wrx Sti stock wheels my15-17 that you see in the photo (18 8,5 et 55) have a special design to fit these brakes. Probably you can use wheels withsimilar measures but with a lower ET (35 could possibly fit) or wheel spacers. Do you agree Akko ? :-)

    Upgrading Stock Brakes

    Hi Guys... The biggest problem for Front Brembo brakes (rear is different, because of the e-brake), considering stock rims, is the "ET". Now I mount WRX STI my 2015-17 wheels and there should be no problems to mount 4 pot WRX STI MY2015-17 (also years before) Black (and Gold as well) Brembo...

    Upgrading Stock Brakes

    Hi everybody... With stock wheels (114.5 18 7,5 et 40/50) there's no chance for front Brembo calipers (and maybe a lot of other brands)... I tried myself following the instructions of https://blog.racetechnologies.com/2015/07/31/how-to-measure-your-wheel-for-proper-brake-clearance/ made all the...

    Upgrading Stock Brakes

    As I said I phoned but there was no chance to speak with trade marketing, which is the unit to solve our problem (they told me that). So I've sent an email but the answer will arrive not before than 2nd of may. Let's wait.

    https://blog.racetechnologies.com/2015/07/31/how-to-measure-your-wheel-for-proper-brake-clearance/ P.S It depends on the rims, not on the fact the car is Spec-b cause (from what I know) Spec-B means simply that the car is Bilstein equipped. :)

    Upgrading Stock Brakes

    Hi Akko! Maybe Tomorrow I will directly phone in Brembo (which stays no more than 35 km from me) because I think there's the chance also for rear brakes. I explain you why (if I'm right and I don't know) I've looked on the PDF the specs and it's not only WRX and WRX STi, you have to consider...

    Upgrading Stock Brakes

    I think you could take some WRX 2015- BREMBO BRAKES, I'm almost sure that a Brembo model should fit but I don't know which one if STI or not. The big problem, to be honest, is the wallet. The GT http://www.brembo.com/it/auto/uso-sportivo/sistemi-frenanti-gt are 3000 euro front and 3000 rear ...

    Here we are! Yes. The B16. Are available, but not stock. :) Now I understand better also "specific". You meant suitable. The dumpmatic II on WRX s207 are more "specific" in the way the line was "almost designed" for that car. In fact you couldn't find them right on the catalogue... I became...

    Too much generic. More info... :) Do you mean B16? I mean, the B6 and B8 are not adjustable. Than you have the "race ones" but in Italy, at least, you should not, and cannot, use them on the road. it's not legal cause they are not homologated. (Don't let me say that it's very difficult that...

    Splutter on Ignition

    Uh... I'm pretty sure they will recall also there in Norway on MY15 and MY16 (that is the year model). Just wait and you will receive a letter (in Italy works like that) saying they have to reprogram the Ecu due to engine failure particulary when you turn on the engine and (in a very few cases)...

    Hi! Yes, Bilstein B8 used on Levorg are the same as WRX 06.14- Eibach springs too because WRX and Levorg wear exactly the same. If interested, I can give you the exact codes of both products, because it's very hard to find them, also directly on Bilstein catalogue. :) P.S. Normally (not in...

    Splutter on Ignition

    Did you already had the official recall from Subaru? here in Italy we are having it during these months and they will reprogram the ecu I think due exactly to this kinda problem. Probably, if not, you'll have it very soon.

    I chose a "time attack" configuration, not sure could be the "perfect" fit for aussie roads, cause the car is very low now. It's a (special and different from the usual one) spec-b configuration. Bilstein B8 + ad hoc springs designed for them: Eibach pro-kit...
