I would also like to see interior pics 🙂

I am not using shims, but I'll have to look into those! I doubt anyone bled the clutch either time, but on a very hot day on a very heavy braking track I was good for 20-25 minutes with no fade, so it's a good thought for next seasons bleeding and I'll make sure to call it out (if I don't switch...

Just hit Watkins Glen yesterday with RBF600 and CSG CP pads. The pads were good, I ran with VSC off and still cooked the fluid in 5 laps though. It's possible the dealership didn't get the last little bit of stock fluid out. Missed my second session while the little race shop flushed me with...

As for changing the rear brakes it seems like there are 3-4 options. Someone stated you can do something manually with the ebrake to manually put into service mode, but that didn't work for me. I don't have a scan tool, but these are the same style brakes I had on my Legacy and I was able to do...

How does a temp sensor in the sandwich plate differ from one in the oil pan?

I don't have nearly as much experience as you, probably 7-10 track days, but I also had all seasons and very crowded sessions on a medium to small track. That said stock pads and fluid were just fine as long as you're focusing on momentum and not max braking. I already changed my pads and will...

I lubed the pins themselves rather than the ears if that helps. I think my squealing is coming from the compound rather than lube issues.... Which for CSG CP pads I'm not super happy about... We'll see how they do next track day for whether I'll just stick to OEM for street and something more...

It's also my daily so I'm not excited about adding NVH. I have heard the benefits of tuning will go beyond power to healthier timing with less boost, less rev hang, and more controlled power delivery. While that's encouraging I've modded a car too far in the past so it's baby steps for me for...

I'm sure people have covered this elsewhere, but I'm new here so I'm wondering how are you doing for traction? I bought mine slightly used and it came with all seasons (DWS06+, which I loved on my subies). Weirdly enough I have plenty of traction at the track once they are good and hot but on...

Yeah, I always just buy it from the dealer. The Subaru ones always had the color in one end and the clear coat in the other. Not sure if Honda does the same. Also forget any notion that you'll be able to make it perfect. You can apply multiple coats, use a razor blade, wet sand, polish....it's...

Not sure where you're seeing 215 a tire, they are 354 at tire rack. I'm actually kind of interested and live near Albany NY. I was gonna go for the EC02s but I'll have to think about it.

AI says: Stock Spark Plug Gap: 0.028 to 0.031 inches (0.7 to 0.8 mm). That's using a prompt asking for it to use Honda/Acura documents. That said, your tuner should tell you what gap they want. Do you need a step colder plug based on their recommendations? Are you using new plugs or gapping...

If you shift a little slower (pause at neutral before proceeding to the next gear) does the "grinding" go away? Not that you want to, just as a test. I do find my gears are crunchy if I try to speed shift, especially in 2nd.

Had my first track day today with the ITS....wow I was not ready for how good this thing would be completely stock. The previous owner even put all seasons on it and it still had no problem keeping up with most of the cars in the intermediate group. I'm super happy bought this car! The back...

I've found diminishing marginal returns with mods. Had a legacy 3.6R I built the hell out of. At the end I made it too rough and too loud, but I loved it otherwise. Finally parted ways with it for the Type S recently and I don't regret it at all. Doing the sway bars on the subie added a huge...

Cool thanks! I appreciate all the feedback. Oddly I did notice the affected wiper was lifting a bit in the middle as if bent, but then I gave the existing wipers another thorough cleaning (I thought I'd already done that, but I guess not enough) and for now they seem to be working ok.

So I just bought a used Type S and the wiper on the passenger side will not make contact with a large portion of that side of the windshield. It's annoying for my passenger but not preventing me from seeing. I asked the dealer I bought it from (a Subaru one) to replace them after the test...

I picked up this bracket from carbonio as suggested. I really like it, great suggestion, thanks!
