I've been using the sway bar links that came with my bc racing coilovers and one of them failed the other day and the car is making a clunking sound. Piece of junk coilover set all together. Should have spent a couple hundred more for something better. Anyways, I just bought the smy end links since I already have their rear lca and toe arms. I wanted to go with smy since they have a lifetime warranty for their parts. I made sure to purchase everything from their website too to make sure any warranty claims are fast and easy. Hopefully they never fail but if they do I have that peace of mind.

How did you get so much power without ethanol? Is it because the ets turbo kit provides nice cold air? Or do you have meth injection, Any knock?

Just ordered a 2024 WRX, coming from a 2009 Dodge Charger SXT. When test driving the WRX, one of the first things I noticed was how the center armrest was basically nonexistent. The test drive was only about 4 miles and multiple times I dipped down to the right expecting to lean on an armrest like in my Charger. I ordered this when I ordered my WRX, dumb that I had to though. It should come stock with the car.

I’m curious, by plugging it to the OEM headlight dimmer, does it control both the headlights and the LED kit simultaneously? Did you somehow disconnect the headlights and control only the LED kit? Is it better to order a new OEM dimmer in order to be able to control both the headlights and the LED kit?

Can anyone comments on turn-in response and rotation in the corners? I never stiffen the front as the rear stiffness increase of 30-50% fixes all the WRX factory understeer. Used to autox, so can't sort out why anyone would ever stiffen the front one unlees they like pushing through corners insteaf of getting the rear to rotate.
