@@matteoperron5436 fb25 na engine plus a 4.11 final drive cvt trans swap, and then we chopped the muffler at the rear diff

@@123109100 yup! Absolutely love the travel, durability and off-road handling, they kick ass! Though I will say they have a bit of on road comfort sacrifice but not too bad

@@Jeremy-dw2jt unfortunately not, though you can find conversion kit rotors that fit these calipers but with the 5x114.3 bolt pattern, it’s the same as what they would run on wrxs

@@silverbulletxv4497 ya i’m kinda putting together my own “kit”

@@darren8390 yup they both do, honestly decent, though they do eventually run out of gearing so certain grades can be to much for them. The regeard Impreza does remarkably well in most conditions, being able to power through without much issue!

@@117jakethesnake solid vibes! Though pardon my skepticism on 13-15” of travel with Ironman, I just can’t see that happening, I’ve wheeled with plenty of fozzys and other rigs on spec c and none come close to that much wheel travel, where do you measure your ground clearance btw?

@@pedrotrujillo3121 yup yup!

My pleasure!!

@@EZapar a race with nwrally association at a track in Bellingham wa, so much fun haha

@@silverbulletxv4497 Gonna pay attention to next year's event. That look like a BLAST!!

@@EZapar hell yea, love that for sure!!!

@@johnmadsen37 😂😂😂

@@MeetAlexChannel haha yup we really lucked out for sure! We went on to do another few hours of wheeling before camp after that haha

@@GeneralSmashCG technically it’s on a set of geolander ats but man are they a mild all terrain, better tires are on his list soonb

@@silverbulletxv4497 yea I’ve got a 2019 Cherokee Sport and have a set of Falken Wildpeak AT3W and love em, gonna upgrade to the AT4W once these wear out, your car the Impreza?

@@GeneralSmashCG yup I’m the Impreza, falken makes a solid tire for sure

@@silverbulletxv4497 love your build, I’ve seen people off road crosstrek, foresters and outback’s but never seen a built Impreza!

@@GeneralSmashCG haha yea she’s a blast, it’s actually a rally car but shares almost everything with crosstrek so was able to piece it together for this weekend trip, as it sits she’s about 5” over factory, on 28” milestar at pro tires

Please make more videos I like to watch

and sometimes it makes it harder to shift from P to D if you putting gear to P then handbrake.

@@greeenteeee so the Impreza is running stock crosstrek front shocks with 2” spacers, and the rear is raceworks rally coilovers, I wanna say it’s somewhere on the realm or 6-9” of travel with slightly more in the rear, I have a full raceworks coilover crosstrek which manages 10-12”, both run no swaybars, at least for off-roading

@@silverbulletxv4497 damn 10-12” of articulation is legit! No wonder they’re capable. My AWD only measure 6.5”/7.5” F/R travel. No issues w binding CVs at droop and full compression?

@@greeenteeee nope, though the fronts fail for other reasons, namely the cheap oreilys axles haha, but warranty, and yea, ifs midsize trucks need full long arms and axles to achieve that kinda front travel, we don’t even drop the front diff

@@christiansacra599 feel free to message me on instagram for more info! I’m hoping to make more videos in the future

@@rizky1200 300 front and 275 rear, though with more preload than makes sense in the rear so likely 300 all around would be good!

@@silverbulletxv4497 Thanks. Wow, that's stiff. How is ot for daily use?

@@rizky1200 honestly it’s not too stiff at all, my vehicle is particularly heavy, around 4100 lbs so it’s actually relatively compliant, not as soft as stock but comfortable

@@silverbulletxv4497 Thanks for answering

Sounds good to me! Message me on Instagram about it!

Ahh thanks homie, I’m glad ya like it!!😊

Hell yea, the x brite works well for cheap but if you want better quality I’d for sure go for ssc2s or the 6 inch lightbars from diode!

Haha thanks, that was an amazing experience, hopefully I can make it back there one day soon to try it again with all the drivetrain upgrades and more experience haha, start with one thing at a time and you’ll end up with an awesome build no doubt!

Thank you!!

Whoop whoop!

I’ll try and put something together in the future, my setup isn’t perfect but I’ve improved it on other rigs so I’m sure I can help setup something perfect!

@@NickBEADG yup they’re 15-21 wrx/sti! A big upgrade for sure over stock arms!

Stick with your Brembo's they are way better.

@@martinr8278 yup they really handle their own well, especially with a few easy modifications like on the crosstrek! Gotta love it!

Subarus have the best AWD…..much more of a package, you don’t own one, so……

@@martinr8278 And now they're being cited on 4wd roads lmao. Also... You've never had a Land Cruiser. Full time 4wd > AWD.

To be honest I started with the crosstrek as an easy and comfortable daily in Washington, then a few years later it’s developed into a unique and remarkably capable vehicle, being able to crawl up obstacles, and still get down the trail quickly and comfortably has been amazing, solid axles and large vehicles just don’t handle the same haha. The rally car in question here has maybe $4k into the chassis and drivetrain and then another bit into tires, throwing a spacer lift on would have made this vehicle just about as capable and so fun to drive! Yes I could grab a 3rd gen 4 runner, 100 series, wrangler or Tacoma, but they’d all need so much more to be comfortable and confident at speeds. Yes they handle low speed crawling much better with low range (assuming they’re locked) but they suffer at speed. The Subarus handle much better at speed and are still competent at off-road slow speed obstacles!!

@@silverbulletxv4497 have you owned any of those 4wd’s?

@@NoFace-jp6dk namely for ease, this swap dosent require any changes to the oem Impreza/ crosstrek wiring harness, where as a turbo would need a full wrx wiring harnesss swap along with ecu, or a standalone, way more effort than this swap

@@alandowney4458 that is an f44 off-road bumper! Super sick and one of the parts I have on my silver off-road crosstrek build too! I made a few videos including the install for the one in the blue trek in this video, feel free to check them out for more info!

@@silverbulletxv4497 thanks I’m in the planning stages of getting my 2023 Crosstrek built for adventure.

@@alandowney4458 perfect, these are one of my preferred mods as you get a tire swing out, hitch, recovery points, rear protection, and reverse lights all in one and for the same or less money as a quality tire swing out! Email the company as they are built to order and show as unavailable on their website

@@bruceyyyyy yup, goes to show what better gearing, a bit of extra horsepower, solid awd system, and a good driver can do!

Was a ton of fun being on 2 wheels so much 😂 and loved the power of the lighter car!
