I believe they're all like that. All of the WR tanks sucks ***. PS has one side that's going to require a larger diameter hose or you can cut off the end on it also.

I had a really productive Saturday. Installed the ST45's with new pads and fluid. Done with the brakes for now. Suspension is next on the list!

Just went to two-day autox last weekend and trackday at Gingerman the weekend before. Change my track set up with Hawk HP+ brake pads and AD08 to daily set up with Hawk HPS pads and Michelin PSS

^ Looks a lot better. Be sure to re-clear coat them so they don't haze up again.

I would venture to say the AD08s are amazingly well at dailying. I've put thousands on them and ripped them up every time I drive and they still seems to have 80-90% tread left. They're pretty decent in rain too.

And use these cleaning wipes for all the plastics.



Cleans , protects, nongreasy, but leaves a natural new look.




It's what I use.

Put some Stance Super Sports on and an Invidia Gemini exhaust. Felt great breaking them in on the Gap.

Fun Fact: As I was taking photos, there was some police action and my g/f said she saw what the issue was. She pointed down a large hill that led in to some trees and I figured the guy holding his head walking with the cop was on a motorcycle and dumped his bike down the hill, turns out it was a 2014 STI. He chopped the roof off and the back tires were sitting on the wing. I feel bad grabbing photos of my car while that was a going on, but I didn't think to look before hand and the people didn't make it seem like it was as big of deal as it was. But i guess up there, it's not. A white Z the day before had flipped his car. Felt bad for the owner, but he only suffered minor cuts and a mild concussion.

Sorry for the long story,
TLDR: I'm inconsiderate and I put some parts on my car.



I blacked the taillights and reverse lights a few years ago, when I didn't know any better. New 06'+ lights on the way.
