So, I understand that putting a rear sway bar on that is too large, such as a 24mm, can make one of the rear inside tires lift off under high limits, but what I'm interested in is, how dangerous is that? I mean, if you are under high limits you would be aware and prepared for oversteer I imagine. I only ask what seems like an obvious question because I have seen hot hatches do it in the past with stock setups. Obviously they were being driven very hard, but still, if they are being set up that way from the factory, how dangerous can it really be?

I guess that's a good point...I wonder what effect that would have with the AWD on this car. So no one really thinks it might be a fun idea to run a 24mm sway on the back?

So we are saying 24 front, 22 rear for max width..? I haven't looked at this in awhile.

If I could get a larger front, I would probably move to a larger rear, but with all that stiffening something still needs to flex, and really it could be any of the other parts, even the rear subframe/diff carrier. So in second thought because I am not going to track this I am going to leave what I have alone. I honestly don't think the rest of the rear suspension can handle the stiffening that would come from a 24mm bar JamesWilson bent something tracking his IIRC, anyone remember what? |

I saw something posted yesterday at subaru forester, and their stock subframe doesn't compare to the sti assemblies, I assume our essentially base impreza is the same and not the beefy sti one. The platform might be shared, that doesn't mean they give us an sti frame/assemblies

Seems like that's the one thing folks can't figure out. I know it'd void the warranty, but isn't there anything we can change in the computer to have that toggle actually disable what it should? Everything?

2012 Impreza cylinder and cam cover leaking oil
I have a 2012 Impreza 2.0 with 27k. The oil light kept coming on and as others in this forum have noticed, I thought the sensor was bad. The diagnoses was a leaking right cylinder and leaking cam cover. Anyone else had this issue?

I mean, for a daily, the car is solid enough. But unlike my Si, I'm not sure if I'd feel comfortable with really "pushing" the car. Even in the Sport trim, it doesn't seem super rugged. But then again, I didn't buy it to go off roading or to track. So I'm not too concerned. lol I just hope this car doesn't fall apart after a year or two. All these scattered issues worry me a little..

While I don't doubt that, I'm just saying that there has been a couple other issues popping up. A rugged chassis is useless if the rest slowly falls off. haha I love mine so far, just hope they last as long as Subaru's typically do..
