Is used auto wrx worth buying?

[Accordvtec]

Just curious, must we always retune the car after we add a new piece of hardware? I just got my used Atrex a few weeks ago, so kinda new to this tuning business haha. Still considering exactly what it is I wanna do to the ride though.

 

Which year n how much u paid?

[JaydenSTI]

Same as mine mah...was wondering if decat oredi will improve fc

 

 

Decat to release power...... Fc the last thing to consider for Rex driver.......

[Fennmax]

Evo better. 1kml more. Consistently like that. Sti vs evo x

[Accordvtec]

Ahaha, ok ok laaa. BTW, any recommendations as to what I should do to increase the HP? So far the only thing changed is the exhaust if i'm not wrong.

Hi guys i've managed to get my auto wrx for a few days. So far i encountered these problems, there's sometimes a klut sound from the gear box when i am coming to a stop. and i realised my power/at/snow button doesnt work. As in i press power the power on the dash doesnt light up. Anyone encountered similar problems?

Hmm .. snow? Did you mean hold?

 

But anyhow, both my power and hold do light up, so I'm not sure what exactly is the problem for you. Hopefully its just something wrong with the bulb etc. Does the "hold" work for you? As in, can you rev past 4k rpm?

[Hotshot85]

On a slightly similar note, what exactly does power do? I know hold enables us to rev damn high, but i can't really feel much difference between power and AT when i floor it.

[Jerrimie]

hmm for sure the bulb is not having problem cos when i just start car the power lights up but doesnt when i press the button. Havent really tried revving when under the hold button. will try that tomorrow.

[Hotshot85]

Alright bro, lemme know when you're done testing.

 

BTW, which Atrex did you buy? Was it from sgcarmart?

just buy the 1 u like.

but be careful... i view around 10+ of them in the last 2 weeks. 9/10 of them, u buy = big headache.

 

e.g.

fail xos. (easy to solve, just get a legal)

fail midpipe n downpipe ( super headache, v hard to find stock for sale)

cockeye mileage can be mod n no 1 know.

hawkeye mileage can be mod but possible to check the real mileage.

a few of them, dekited, have so many CEL errors, they remove the CEL warning light. lol

 

base rex dep should be 6k+
