chart on right shows older STI under 86 BRZ https://www.work-wheels.co.jp/img_save/pdf/5c380a747e81a.pdf

This is what @Andy_Mac keeps talking about. Buy a new short block and swapping the pistons to forged ones at the same time. Sounds like a really good value option. hey @Naval what mods had been done to the motor?
-
The chassis ain’t soft. anyway check @Niran topic you have to a little work to get the correct 265 tyre.
-
With wider tyres they will roll under more. the white line kits needs a 40mm drop to work well I’m pretty sure I’ll remove mine at some stage.
-
No haven’t cut the notches out. I did think about it ages ago but forgot. Need to check the clearance to pistons But I’m pretty sure they have deeper and wider valve pockets so could be the go.
-
That and I want low and mid range power with good spool so mild cams should work. the 1mm oversize should allow more flow with a lower lift and the valve train won’t have harsh profile to deal with. So no valve float at higher rpm. it’s all a guess and won’t know how high I can rev it until the tune. With stock valves B cam is good for 600hp. I can always swap cams and/or turbo out but valves etc need way more work.

I thiNk there has been a case this year that they got 15k from the shop as they are professionals and the checks should have picked up most faults. if you know a lawyer you should try.
-
I think I could have saved a few thousand on parts if I’d stepped down one level of quality and still been over built for the original power goal. at this stage I think I have a block that would be reliable daily with 50% more power.

It’s 50mm wide over the whole pedal including the rubber studs. it seems good so I may slice the studs flat later. but my suspicion that I had a issue with the diff and steering in the left has been confirmed with a set of dash lights turning on 😤
-
Covered pedals in industrial grip tape. No more foot slipping when the pedals are wet. it’s clear so not changed the look. originally I was going to find red and green tape and colour code the pedals but that was way too much wasted tape as it only comes in sheets.
-
I thought the light blinks long and short to give error codes even on newer models. if not scan it.

Police will never investigate car park accidents.

The police should still take a report and issue a number for the report from what I remember. Even if they don’t investigate you can still report a crime.
