YOKOHAMA Tires

Just replaced the OEM Yokohama Avid S34D with the Pirelli P7. Already can tell that they are far superior. 7 db quieter than the OEM on same section of road. I got 20k miles out of the Yokohama and the inside shoulder of all 4 were through the first layer of rubber.

Pros: quieter than OEM
Cons: wore out quickly
Mileage: 20000 km

STOPTECH Brake pads
bRett 32
  • Braking:
Rating 4.0

The brakes don't inspire confidence. I replaced mine with a stoptech setup which is overkill but the feel, modulation and overall power take away one of the stock car's biggest weaknesses IMO

Pros: overall power, good modulation
Cons: don't inspire confidence
Vehicle: Subaru

Gates Timing belt kit

  • Visible condition:
Rating 5.0

Just did my timing belt on my EJ22 (98 Outback Sport) two weeks ago. Gates kit ran me $200. I wouldn't recommend anything aftermarket under Gates.

Pros: reliable quality
Cons: inferior aftermarket alternatives

K&N Oil filter

Most cars in my house get cheap bulk ordered filters off RockAuto. Except the STI, that one has been getting K&N and soon switching to Wix. I’d never allow the oem trash cardboard filter near my car.

Pros: switching to Wix
Cons: oem trash cardboard filter
Vehicle: Subaru

Rating 1.0

I had a FRAM oil filter on my 05 Impreza, I think the part number was #PH6607, I noticed i i was “burning” a ton of oil! I went to do my usual 3K Mile oil change. I noticed the oil levels were alot lower than the time i check a few days prior! I looked under the car and there was oil EVERYWHERE! Mainly built up around the filter!

Cons: oil leak, low oil levels
Mileage: 3000 km
Part number: PH6607
