Funny you should ask. Ive been getting the itch for something different and have been spending a lot of time on cars.com lately :)


Edit: Yes, I am planning on either selling or trading it in probably within the next month or two.

Anyone interested in a Cobb Accessport v1? I think you can trade it into Cobb for a $200 credit towards a v2.

Just something temporary... it's pretty much running on WG pressure, nothing impressive. ;)

You can reuse your TD04 pill. However, if the stock one causes overboosting or underboosting issues that cannot be tuned out, you may need a different sized pill. The tune and the pill work hand in hand for controlling boost.

Since you're running the Cobb AP, and I'm assuming, will continue to use it, the notes should state which pill to use.

Anyone have a PC with a serial/DB9 port? I have an Accessport V1 that I need to upload the COBB OTS maps to. Will drive to your location with a 6-pack of your choice.

My legacy takeoffs are installed on the SH but the one rear top hat seems busted. I didn't know until all was back together and taken for a slow safety check cruise. It settled a bit more in the rear and I now have droopy booty. I ordered 1" spacer for the rear.

Anyone have a 08+wrx, 09+foz or 10+legacy rear tophat?

So it looks like I'll be trading in the Foz in the next few weeks. I'm sure I could get more for it selling privately, but don't want to deal with the hassle (and I don't have the patience for it



That said, I don't want to deal with returning it to stock either, but there are a few things I will probably be taking off before trading it in and wanted you guys to have first crack at them if you're interested.


Edit: sorry, but I came across a deal tonight I couldn't pass up. I traded the Foz in with the exhaust and strut bars still installed.

04eatmefxt, I apologize for not following through with the exhaust as we had talked about.


Aluminum "STI" logo shift knob. This is the "honeydripper" style made by Yelnats_J on this forum. Fits the Forester shifter thread.

Winter wheels and tires: Gray Rays G-Games wheels (17x7 I believe) with Falken EuroWinter tires (I think they are 225/50/17, but I can verify when I get home). Purchased in '09 but they still have a good amount of tread left.

Anyone know how to tack weld? I ordered 1" spacers but they don't have the studs. Shane will send studs that would need to be tack welded. I'd like to wrap this project up ASAP. Anyone able to help? And soon?
