Subaru Impreza WRX parts reviews

The Mazda filter has a higher capacity and larger design compared to the OEM Subaru filter. So, it will hang down slightly lower than OEM. The anti-drain back pressure seems to be similar, but I have never verified myself. I ran this filter on my 2005 Impreza WRX STi for a few years.

My Blizzaks on my STi today were awesome. I love these driving days to put them to good use!

Never tried Royal Purple, but I only ever use the Subaru Black oil filters, or the Blitz Racing oil filters. For oil tho, I’m gonna be putting in HKS Super Oil Premium 10W-40 due to the phenomenal HTHS capabilities compared to Motul and VR-1

As someone who has put this brand on my car for the last 6 years, they work great, tbh. I have had no issues with them.

To me it looks like brake pad material on your rotors due to your street pads melting. Slap a new set a cheap pads on there from Autozone or something and drive it for a week or two that material should come off. As long as you don’t have vibration while braking they should still be good. Just make sure to use track pads next time. I personally run StopTech 309 pads because they’re good on track and street

as far as KYB struts go I can say the build quality is excellent. The shop I work at distributes parts to auto shops in the area, and while we have a ton of options the KYB’s sell like crazy. I asked some of the techs about them and they’ve only said great things.

I just did my ej205 with a gates kit and all bearings were NSK/koyo/NTN and matched the originals that came out.

been using Castrol edge 5w-30 for the past 5 years My WRX engine still feels responsive but i know 5-40w is good overhead for high temps

The frame filters are fine assuming you change your oil every 5k miles or 4 ish months

I had a Dayco belt kit done on mine and after a year the belt started rubbing against the timing cover causing an RPM whine. Ended up switching to OEM from another shop and that's since resolved my issues.
