You heard it here first. Random guy on internet is right and suspension company that literally builds suspension for time attack cars is wrong.

They are wheel cap stickers, can’t remember where I got them from but could probably find them on google

Hi mate, sorry for the late response, no no codes after installing the heavy duty clutch

Hi mate, from memory the clutch kit was around $1000 AUD

@@15xsti58 Thank u bro

Hi mate, the down pipe makes it slightly louder, still loud without, cheers

I don’t, I can tell you that it is pretty loud inside the cabin though, cheers

@@15xsti58 got it done already 2 weeks ago... its not as loud as i thought it would be. Well you wouldnt get stuff done to a STI and let it go quietly lol

Yep 👍🏼

Subispeed

I think equal length headers are quiter than unequal length headers

I’d say an 8, easily loud enough to wake the neighbours at 6am

On a hoist it took me about 4 hours start to finish

It’s a work in progress

Unsure of the factory part number, I used NGK spark plugs part number SILFR6A, cheers

I got it off from the top

You’re right bro, I should do a follow up video, had them in for 2+ years now

Not really, try put it back in the same way it came out but you should get a wheel alignment after this kind of suspension mod

Yeah I’d recommend them, had them for a long time now and they are still performing well

I replaced it at about 75,000Km, it didn’t need replacing due to it being worn out though, just upgraded it so it could handle more power/torque

Yeah mate mine does the same thing, I’m guessing it’s just how they are

Yeah the mishimoto FMIC is awesome I did need to modify the Cobb SF airbox to suit tho, I had to cut a decent chunk out of it to allow room for the inter cooler pipe. I’m thinking of changing to the process west intake in the future tho, maybe have a look at that as an option

@@15xsti58 if you dont mind me asking what gains have you seen doing this FMIC and other mods that you might have done ...

The FMIC was a supporting mod I did, I didn’t like the idea of the TMiC heat soaking, once all my mods were complete and I got my tune it made 238kw at the wheels

Nah I don’t use a torque wrench on the plugs, these plugs have a crush washer on them, when I feel the plug bottom out inside the head I go about another 90 degrees of a turn and that’s tight enough, you can normally sense the washer seating/crushing when you get to this point, if you are unsure and can get a torque wrench in there better safe than sorry tho I guess

I believe in this video I lowered it around 50mm could’ve gone more there is a lot of adjustment available with this, since these video I have raised it though.

Haha nah man, but just gave one of his videos a quick watch, I like his style 😅

I know man, had to bring out the rattle gun to help get the tight ones off, I think next up for me might be the engine and transmission mounts

Thanks bro!

Slightly quicker engine revving due to the lightened flywheel, the clutch pedal feel and engagement is the most noticeable thing though tbh, much better than stock

15 XSTI so it actually did get faster, like the torque increased ? I have a wrx 09 with a stage 2 clutch and that thin got so much faster. So I’m getting an sti soon and I was thinking doing the same thing.

Yeah man In a way it did

Hi mate, thanks for the feedback, fitment wasn’t much of an issue, I had the car a bit low and it was scrubbing in the rear, I rolled the rear guards and that sorted the scrubbing, also used slightly stretched tyres, 245/40/18 RE003s

I had an accessport and did an ‘off the shelf’ stage 2 tune with it, it is recommended to get a tune with the turbo back

I haven’t heard the Tomei expreme in person but considering it’s a single cannon style exhaust I’d say the tomei is probably louder

How difficult was the plug on left side with the vacuum pump duct to replace??

It’s not too bad, I’d say the road/tyre noise is louder, when cruising under light acceleration it’s not too loud but when you open up the throttle it screams

@@15xsti58 thanks man! I'm undecided between the r400 or the tomei lol

I’ve done that aswell dude don’t worry check my other videos

Ofcourse, I’m a mechanic and did the wheel alignment myself..

What about showing how you set up the damper perfect from soft to hard while road testing...yoeah you got to get that right ,,,or your car be bouncing on the road all the time

Hi! The 15 STI uses a pull type clutch, the throw out bearing clicks into the pressure plate, then there’s 2 clips that hold the bearing to the clutch fork I believe
