Yeah I semi tried to replicate the oe style. I bought remaned oe calipers that were raw aluminum. I think they came out OK, not perfect if you look close though.
Went ahead and upgraded to the oem sti (08-17) brembos. Painted gold with caliper paint from g2.
Had to add 15mm spacer for the rpf1 to clear up front.
Garage was just finished about 2 months ago so ot hasn't had too much use. Bench is fine, it was on sale at home depot. Frontier I believe the brand was. Cheaper/China made stuff but fine for what I need. Rubberwood top and it does have a power strip and 2 usb port on the side. Husky had a...
Site works well but I do miss the convenience of tapatalk. I frequent 3-4 forums so it was just a bit quicker.
No worries though, I will put this as a shortcut on my homescreen so I can still check in frequently.

Yeah they should be able to set the wheel straight and adjust the tie rods to get everything lined back up with the toe in spec.
Messing with the subframe and steering was the main reason I only upgraded the rear sway bar. Props to you for tackling both
