    Exhaust tone difference is single vs twin scroll turbo and manifold. Twinscroll manifold pairs one long runner with one short. This evens out the pulses entering the turbo and makes it sound equal length past the turbo.

    Lovely example of an Impreza! Common enough to see these here in Ireland. Keep up the great videos Derek.

    STI Gauge set goes for well over 100,000 yen, the pod would fetch around 30,000 yen. good buy

    This is my favorite version of the STI and it's the one I've been saving up for. I'm planning on swapping an EJ207 into it instead of the EJ257 it comes with here in the U.S.

    • @enzoc3869

      I've looked into it because I prefer the 207 too. Takes quite a lot of work...either buy one with a 2.5...get a wrx and spend the money on a 207 because it's direct fit with just some working...or wait until we can get these into the US. Lol

    The Subaru burble comes from the unequal length headers

    When it comes to older Subarus I think I'm seeing more JDM RHD ones on the road than domestic LHD ones now. Don't get me started about the drivers...

    Is it possible to be in touche with a person living in France or relatively close to there that bought a car in auction to enlight me about the paperwork and everything please?

  • @rudiheide3014
    @rudiheide3014 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    That wheel is straight out of a USDM or Canadian 04 STi. Not sure if they used the same in the JDM cars

    Does GDB stand for anything? Or what does it denote on this model versus NON GDB?

    How much is it to import from Japan to the Northern Marianas Islands

  • @NazbolCaliphDonaldaddeenTrump
    @NazbolCaliphDonaldaddeenTrump 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love blobeye and hawkeye Imprezas, however I wouldn't import one, the only WRX I'd import is the original one. I own a blobeye wrx USDM.

  • @Codethe_Road
    @Codethe_Road 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Haha.. The use of the laptop instead of the clip board.. Then mention of it actually being run over xD

  • @kevlar_7585
    @kevlar_7585 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That front bumper are not offered in the Sti package .. it's an aftermarket option. Neither is the hood scoop

    • @emmareporter
      @emmareporter 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      no hood scoop comes with sti's

  • @Whateva67
    @Whateva67 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    If Subaru is a relatively small company compared to Toyota and Honda, why is there a high proportion coming over from Japan?

  • @andxx0r_the_second671
    @andxx0r_the_second671 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where I live, every Subaru has really corroded engine parts and hardware under the hood after a few years. So weird to see a 15 year old Scoobydoo with such a clean engine bay.

    Did Subaru install a vape machine in it as well:) hehehe sorry, I had to go there!

    I would consider buying one of these without the wing and hood scoop. I am turning into an old man.

    • @Drainxstar
      @Drainxstar 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Furness Prime the hood scoop actually helps the inter cooler on the top

    • @Codethe_Road
      @Codethe_Road 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      You are right about the air flow for the top mount-- but-- I have been driving vehicles with scoops and wings all my life-- I've seen a few of these changed over to front mount and then they install the standard hood-- I kind of like that look overall. Sedate, but you still get the performance.

    • @Drainxstar
      @Drainxstar 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Furness Prime ohhh okay

  • @mynameisray
    @mynameisray 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's not what people like, it's a garbage wing that just adds a ton of weight and does nothing at all for the car. Thus the reason 99% of them have spoiler deletes or have an aftermarket wing that actually provides down force and doesn't weight a ton.

    • @NazbolCaliphDonaldaddeenTrump
      @NazbolCaliphDonaldaddeenTrump 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      mynameisray what's funny is that STI owners tend to remove the spoiler meanwhile WRX owners tend to buy up STI spoilers to install them

    • @Drainxstar
      @Drainxstar 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      President Donald J. Trump that’s very true mr president

    • @adampatterson4857
      @adampatterson4857 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Incorrect they do make downforce granted not mass amounts

    • @mynameisray
      @mynameisray 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Adam patterson - Well I stand corrected, though at least around here people take them off.

    • @adampatterson4857
      @adampatterson4857 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      mynameisray i think thats why the hawkeye version had a roof spoiler at the top of the back window to try and channel more air under the main spoiler as most just goes over it lol really comes down to personal preference as you say i'll stick with mine 😝

      Nope, they go by the build date over there so the 2003 for them is the 2004 for us.
