SO MUCH RANDOM CHATTER

should of tried a wire brush to get the rust off the calipers, some brake cleaner too.

I probably should have. I just was a little lazy Plus i'll be doing the Subaru 4 pot brake upgrade one of these days..

Subie dave is like way cooler than usdm dave.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Jesus fucking Christ, it's like watching a bunch of mouthbreathing middleschoolers tell a high schooler how to succeed.

Your wagon looks great, especially with the tint. A modest drop and some OE STi wheels would make the car pop as a whole. IF you plan on actually enjoying your car for racing or track days, look into what other people are using. Excessively wide wheels don't necessarily mean you're better off, especially if you chose lower offsets.

Keep up what you're doing OP, don't listen to the uninformed idiots who do stupid shit for scene points.

Thanks man. Yeah i know what you mean. I'm looking into keeping my stockies for snow tires, getting a wider set of wheels with a really aggressive offset for like street and show use etc, and having a modestly aggressive set of wheels for track day. Eventually.

Thanks man. Definitely.

COILOVER UPDATE

So turns out the company i ordered my ISC Coilovers from told me that ISC hasn't been cooperative lately so they have not been providing inventory, and my options are to get a refund, or wait 2 to 4 weeks to have them delivered straight from ISC. Well i'm not a patient person
So.....
I'm gonna get a refund and as soon as that goes through, i'm gonna pony up the extra cash for BC BR Extreme Lows.

More waiting

Well I'm not quite sure wtf a VW has to do with anything...but I can see how I have come off as 'ignorant'. But hey, thats my life not yours. Plus u dont even need to graduate from 9th grade to know how to lower a car to the point where it is useless. 'Notching' a frame is also a brilliant way to deppreciate the value of your car for resale, if not get it branded as salvage or rebuilt in the case of reinforcement to the 'notch'.
If u dont like my comments, steer clear of my long name. Because tbh i dont care what you think.

Why are you in this thread/forum posting if you really don't have anything worth contributing other than your teenage ignorance bruh

These numerous people probably haven't all crashed their cars either, so there's no telling how compromised the structure has become in extreme situations. Sure it hasn't collapsed during normal driving, but perhaps the frame is becoming more weakened on these cars with each bump. Perhaps the frame won't perform as designed in a crash. That's the problem with removing material and not reinforcing it properly afterwards, you have no real idea of how strong it remains until the day it fails.

The legend of Colin Chapman was that he removed material until something broke under racing stresses, then added that last little bit back in. Essentially this is the same thing, except without the expectation that something could break suddenly.

Guess I'll find out when it happens. I know it sounds ignorant but really like I've said it's a minuscule cut that dosnt go into the actual frame rail. If It breaks I guess you can I told you so and I will feel dumb.

[storey618]

You are aware that, for instance, just about every low Volkwagen older than a mk2 has a notched frame, right?

I can't tell if your not very smart, trolling or just ignorant by the countless comments you've left in here.

Look man, I think I **** you. But in all seriousness you are 16!!! youve got quite a few more years of busted knuckles and wishing you signed up for triple A stuck on the side of the road somewhere before you can give anyone advice on here.

Word lol

So for a frame notch, cut a little more than I'll need and then weld up that area on the edges?

[aLaFleur]

That's what we're here for.

[Sprinqer]

well this got really awkward really fast

[aLaFleur]

1- You're not in highschool (I hope)
2- You have given excellent advice for notching
3- You tell it like it is, instead of nut riding.

Ashton knows what he's doing, I would advise listening to him, OP.

I was kidding, so fuck off with your compliments.

[MommysLittleMonster]

Look here now Chris, I better not be included in that.
