WRX STI Hatch - Project Daphne
After living with the car for a bit , have found its only occasional - transition from wider throttle opening to closed and coasting / engine braking so I dont think it is deliberate antilag that is there all the time but the unburnt fuel from the cylinders based upon the map and probably the VTA dump valve that is fitted causing rich mixture. Either way its ok to live with as not too intrusive, when driven sedately eg through built up areas, it doesnt happen

New
Very good - they have silicon in them that puts a layer on the windscreen, this means the water beads smaller and runs off faster giving clearer vision in the rain

WRX STI Hatch - Project Daphne
Yes it was a surprise to me as well... I think it was caught in a flood at some point and left to sit

WRX STI Hatch - Project Dotty
Front bearings off but not without a fight, GrpN replacements on the way then I can fit the longer ARP studs
-
WRX STI Hatch - Project Daphne
Replaced the front splitter with one that is not as hard / brittle as where this car goes as a daily it does catch every so often, this way even though slightly larger it does not seem to dig into the ground so much Before After - The matt black matches with the matt black in the bumper so does not look out of place Really hated the bit of flimsy metal rad guard so replaced with the perrin item from the project car (Dotty) Before After Found the where the oil is dripping onto the exhaust - looks like it is coming out of the bottom of the clutch housing so ordered some plates from ICP so along with the clutch, rear crank seal and gearbox shaft seal should ensure the new clutch is not getting coated - when the garage sorts an MOT and clutch replacement later this week. Keeping a standard plate to maintain the driveability low down, not interested in the few extra bhp higher up rev range for this motor (Sweets courtesy SprintingHare JDM who provided great service)

Tuning my 2005 Subaru Impreza GDA
As above they do give better control over boost when mapping and for the comparative cost well worth the investment

Hi all!
It does, a map on a standard car can see improved midrange performance and slightly better mpg

cross sport s stage 1
I would just refer to it as a remap, the term "stage" can get some unnecessary micky taking on some social media platforms particularly in relation to Honda owners. If it was me I would invest in the following before going to get a map. Service - Oil and filter change, include plugs if they have not been done in the last 8k, you want your motor in a known condition before going. Ideally a higher flow panel filter - cosworth etc A new fuel pump if it is over 10 years old look at a less restrictive exhaust system

Any recommendations for rear parking sensors
I used this setup in conjunction an ebay camera with went in really easily with a buzzer under a rear quarter panel https://www.parkingsensors.co.uk/product/dfm400-flush-fit-parking-sensor-kit Think I found it cheaper on Amazon though?

Engine out
Yes turns out I will need an s7 for my build so there will be an s6 available shortly as well as @savage bulldogs's Apexi

Brakes and oil
Had mintex pads and discs years ago never had an issue - your VX might be a little heavier though but ultimately it is down to how you drive. I would go heavier on the oil myself but check OPIE oils for another opinion
