I don't claim to know much about the whole M1 fiasco. There were just a ton of people on NASIOC that started blowing up motors all around the same time, on the same oil. I lost a motor myself, but...

HLA = hydraulic lash adjuster. They're the lifters on a miata motor. Subarus don't have them, since most Subarus use a bucket/shim for lash adjustment.

Wow man. That thing is pretty well setup now. Nice to hear that it's "done"!

I had a DDM kit in my SVX, and I have one in my Outback. 55w for both kits. Never had a problem with either car. Not bad for like $50.

Just make sure you're putting them in a car that's already...

And, I'm all set for the autocross season... in that the Miata is parked and waiting for the trials season to start. :lol:

I would assume the large splitter from the '02 jdm sti would fit on your forester if the scoop fits. I think I might actually have one lying around in my garage somewhere if you want to test it out.

If you ever ever ever think theres the tiniest chance you'll ever want to remove it, don't put it in. Apparently it's easier to cut out the floorpan and weld in a new one than to remove dynamat.

The block was already bored over once, so I think it's already at 100mm. But it had very low miles when I spun the rod (literally about 100 miles... it spun on the dyno during break-in because I...

I've got an ej257 that's disassembled in a box. With forged JE pistons. But it's got a spun rod bearing, and probably needs a hone and rings. Plus, it's been sitting for a few years. So, it's...

They won't fit. The shape of the hole in the hood is quite different. Also, I don't know that the '04/'05 scoops are at all more effective than the '06+ scoops. They're just squarer looking.
