M8 1.25. Original was 20mm long, replaced it with a 25. My Ace hardware down the street has an extensive fastener section. The stock bolts were galvanized but I ended up with stainless. I forgot to mention that I added a 2mm spacer between the bottom of the cross brace and the top of the shock tower since the lower mounting point of the cross brace was raised by 2mm from the thickness of the catch can mounting plate.

I'm not sure if the cross brace was designed that way, but the shock tower bolts are reused, and they are just long enough to grip a couple of threads, and with the 2mm thick Mishimoto mount plate added to the mix I stripped out the top 2ish threads of the bolt hole. Fortunately, I was able to run a tap in and fix those couple of threads. Got a couple of 5mm longer bolts and it's all good.
Strange. I installed the Mishimoto CC and didn't have any issues with the bolts.

Drove it.


I know, sounds like nothing, but that means a lot in November... Looking like I can drive it tomorrow too




After that...

Jinx!
Excellent choice
I put the 2nd set of Evo pads and high carbon Hella rotors on my wife's Allroad last week. Low pedal effort, good feel and next to no dust.

Been staring at it since Wednesday. Probably won’t pull it out until Tuesday when it goes in for an exhaust.

Had some Black Widow Neighbor Haters installed on it. They sound good but are pretty loud inside between 1700-2000rpm. Gonna drive it for a few days before I decide whether or not to have a j-pipe installed or just swap the mufflers out for something else.

Also bought a set of stock taillights. They aren't smoked but I don't care. I need this random rapid flashing thing out of my life.

Rolled over 98,000. Probably 100K in the spring. Don't remember how to flip the pics upright.
