AMSOIL CVT fluid

In the end, I did some research and found that it takes 4 qts to do a spill and fill, which is THE preferred maintenance procedure, at 60k miles/100k Kms, from Subaru. I then contacted AMSOIL directly, who said not only is their CVT fluid compatible with all CVTs, from 1 to 3 and HT, it was also Warranty Secured, both Manufacturer and Aftermarket. So, I did it myself. Took about an hour and used 4 quarts. I bought a $10 transfer pump. The warm-up/top-up procedure is easy peasy. And if I can do it, anyone can!

Pros: compatible with CVTs, warranty secured, easy to install
Vehicle: Subaru Forester

EBC Brake pads

I used EBC blue stuff on my BRZ with factory brembos, and replaced the pads using FCP euro lifetime warranty. EBC blues would hold up for multiple track days with stock power on 200TW tires, and I didn’t experience fade at my skill level, usually intermediate at HDPE days.

Pros: long lasting, no fade
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

I just purchased these from O’Reilly’s near me today 1/19/24 for my 2018 Crosstrek limited. Only one set in stock. Looks like they're also available from Amazon. They Are Bosch and fit directly, no adapters needed. Only tested them with the windshield washer fluid and they are smooth and crisp.

Pros: smooth and crisp

MICHELIN Tires
Czaple
  • Noise:
Rating 4.0

I didn't replace my factory Yokohama tires on my 2022 Limited until around 38k miles, and I still had around 1/4" tread left. I wanted better winter tires and replaced them with Michelin Cross-Climate 2 tires with a 60k tread wear warranty. There is a bit more ride noise than with my Yokohama tires, but nothing a few more decibels on the radio doesn't fix

Pros: better winter tires
Cons: more ride noise
Mileage: 61155 km

GT Radial Tires

I drive a 05 wrx and have had both Blizzak WS80 and GT Radial Ice Pro 3 on it. I only got the GT Radials because I was in grad school and they were cheap. They get the job done, but are definitely not as good as blizzies. Obviously haven't done any scientific tests, but the steering feel is noticeably worse on the radials, stopping distance is much longer, acceleration worse. Frequently notice them understeering significantly on both wet and snowy roads.

Pros: cheap
Cons: worse steering feel, longer distance
Vehicle: Subaru

Falken Tires

The Falken tires they roll out of the factory suck, Falken as a brand in general isn’t bad. I went from Falken ZX-somethings to Falken Wildpeaks on my Crosstrek and it’s night and day.

Pros: night and day
Cons: factory tires suck
Vehicle: Subaru
