Finally got past the 1K mile break in period with my 2011 WRX 5 door
What a long wait. It was really hard to keep it below 4K rpm all this time! I'm looking forward to really feeling the turbo boost this weekend.
If you see a new pearl white wrx hatch zooming by with an old fart 54 year old behind the wheel with a big grin on his face, that"ll be me!
Another big mahalo to Shaggie of Servco Subaru Mapunapuna for helping me into this set of wheels.

What both you guys should do is step up and trade me your stock suspension + some cash for my Cusco Zero 2e coilovers. Excellent condition with probably less than 5k miles on them. PM me if you're interested.

D, who's that? In any case, nobody has shown any serious interest yet, so they're up for grabs. I'm mainly looking to swap stock '09+ WRX takeoffs + cash for these. As for the Econ, sorry I don't have that, but it is Econ compatible

Wow, I must be the idiot out of the 2011 owners huh. I went pretty much full-bore on my car the day I got her. I'm among the camp who believe you should break-in your car the way you intend to drive it. Hell, I was autocrossing it with paper plates and 350 miles!
Well, congrads none the less!

I could be wrong but when I worked at Kaneohe Subaru our sister store was honda windward and there guys said that hondas motor are pre broken in. Only the s2k's weren't. I could be wrong tho. But also at Kaneohe we seen damage of suby's not being broken in properly.
