Soksta - same issue as with my guards. 245 just won't fit the 08-10 without severe work (rolling and pulling)

Sorry guys, I thought that I was reading that new 09 STI thread, hence the confusion.
Nothing to see, move along

If u got tyres, next is rear subframe bushing, roll centre kit and anti lift kit.

The few engine failue I have seen is more related to push the car b4 oil warmed up and maybe wrong oil too. With rebuild engine u need even more time to warm up the car. I never boost the car for the first 10min of driving from cold start (wait for oil pressure reaching operational condition).

U dont have to rebuild the engine straight way. There r a few 400whp bettys in the state. U take care of the car, car takes carw of u.
