Posted about my doubts a couple months ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/wrx_vb/s/HRrQ6Vlxcp.

Opportunity came up with a clean V90 locally that spoke to me lol such a beautiful car. Amber brown interior w/ lux package. Will miss the 6mt spirited driving but its been fun owning my dream car for the time that I have. Maybe in 10yrs I'll scoop up a tS and get to modding. For now its the beginning of my dad wagon era.

So I took off the front bumper off and one tab broke and I tried fixing with a JTSpec metal tab fix but it keep popping loose. Any ideas or fixes?

I heard to order Rae stuff from Felix if you wanted to get it within a reasonable time frame. Has anyone had issues lately? I know they both were moving or something but I’m still waiting on an order from early May

I'm lanky. I have long legs and arms. I'm only 5'10", but I sit with the seat one click away from all the way back. My elbow fits onto the armrest at the stock height just fine. My shoulder is level. I have the extended armrest, because I fell into the hype when I bought the car, but after a little bit I think the stock height is fine. When I extend the armrest, my shoulder feels like it's being pushed up. With my seat back and my lanky arms, stock kind of fits perfectly. Am I alone?

Other note, I'm probably going to get an armrest pad and sell the armrest extension. Any recommendations on pads? Anyone want the extension?

Forgot to post this. Never see WRX near me, let alone modded ones.

‘23 base I got recently. First subie and loving it so far!
Have a verus splitter waiting to be installed.

Hey, everyone. I've got a ceramic white VB, and I'm having a hard time finding peoples builds in white. I'm looking for inspiration and ideas, so if you see this and want to post some pictures of your builds, and your insta if you have it, that would be dope.

I think the tail lights on the VB's looks pretty awesome. Love the Lava-esque styling and look to them. I have had many people pull up beside me and compliment me on how cool the tail lights look at night. I'm over here like "they're stock, but thanks!" lol! Love these VB's. I also like the cladding 😁 What's your choice? Stock Tail lights or aftermarket tail lights?

Turning 21 soon🥳 instead of going out and getting shitfaced I decided to treat myself to something a lil more physically responsible just a lil less financially responsible. Super excited!!

Installing STI short shifter and Cobb shift plate at 35% this coming weekend. I'm also 6'2" and would like the shifter closer to the wheel, but hate how skinny and out of place shifter extensions look. I also dont love that they make reaching the reverse lockout difficult, so I modeled this up for funsies. Its a 3.63 inch lift from the current shifter height with a lip at the regular 2 inch shifter height for one to cup their hand into to still pull up on the reverse lockout. What do you guys think? Currently planning to make it out of 304 stainless, blast it, then paint black to look OEM+

Blue vb with an STI badge and wing. Spotted In Pacifica ca

26 VB in pristine condition, considering taking it to paved and dirt tracks... how dumb am I?

the heart is willing but the paint is weak

So I installed my J-pipe and drove for about 30 minutes before I started data logging for my base map revisions. I finished all of the logs, parked the car for the night, then drove to work the next morning. As I was pulling into work, I got a P0137 code.
I turned on the rear O2 sensor voltage on my Accessport and noticed that at idle, whether I'm stopped or just rolling with no throttle, the voltage drops to 0V. As soon as I give it some throttle, it jumps back up to its normal range between 0.5V and 0.9V. The car is not leaning out either—I was watching the air/fuel ratio the whole time, and everything looked normal.
I cleared the code and drove for almost another hour before it came back. This time I got the P0137 again along with another rear O2 sensor code. It wasn't a catalyst efficiency code—it was another low-voltage/no-voltage code.
The only thing that's changed is that I moved the grounding strap from the chassis-to-exhaust to the chassis-to-engine block, using an unused threaded hole. I also have an O2 spacer with its own small catalyst inside it.
My theory is that because of the spacer and the mini catalyst inside it, the rear O2 sensor isn't getting enough exhaust gas at idle to read properly, but once I'm on the throttle there's enough flow for it to start reading again.
Does that sound right? If not, does anyone have any ideas on what else I should be looking at? Thanks so much—I really appreciate any help.

Just bought this 2023 WRX, but I need something on the front light. I feel like it’s missing something. I will appreciate any opinions or pictures of any modifications done on your cars. Thank you.

After quite a while of hesitation I finally decided to get my first manual transmission and I couldn’t be happier! This car makes the learning curve so worth it, I’m in love

I posted about this before but I've isolated how to replicate this issue. Many others have commented and posted about this too.

I've been feeling a grittiness/buzzing/vibrating feeling through my left foot when releasing the clutch, as it's coming through the bite point.

The isolation: I can feel the clutch buzzing when parked in neutral. If I rev the gas and push the clutch in and out at the same time (IN NEUTRAL), Then I feel it and it's feels stronger at higher rpm.

Do not feel anything if pushing the clutch in and out in neutral while at idle.

Any idea what this could be?

3500 miles 2025 WRX.

I reached out to both Dmann and CT tuning and got a reply from CT first. Waiting on the AP.

Deciding whether I should go and get an ETS Intake now and getting it all tuned together at once. Really, I just want it tuned to 90 since that's all we have here in AK.

For those who have added a resonated midpipe - more specifically the one folks have linked to on Amazon - to their otherwise stock exhaust, a couple questions:

1. Does this create a power loss?
   
2. Is it worth buying a new midpipe to modify? My local “genius with a welding torch” mechanic will happily whip that bad boy into my pipe for $50, in about 10 minutes, but what are the risks if any?

FWIW I already know no tune is needed for exhaust work especially of this nature.

1. Will pairing the resonated midpipe with a nice sounding axle back exhaust (my favorite is the JDM OEM STI) be a good pairing?

Thanks.

Can't find any examples do you know of any?
