I like the direction your content is going. Buying destroyed/ broken cars and taking us along to fix them. Love it. Should maybe have archives of the work you've done per car in the future. Keep it going!
those white intake ``spacers`` as you called them are actually thermogaskets... they are thicker better insulated intake gaskets to help the intake manifold not absorb as much engine heat from being connected with a typical metal gasket. they are reusable as well. nothing wrong with them what so ever and are actually pretty expensive. look into them before discarding
They were installed incorectly. You have to use a two standard gaskets on each side and put the termoshield/heatshield gasket beetwen those standard gaskets.
@@Piotrush91 incorrectly, these were either cheaply made of damaged. They do not require 2 gaskets (one per side) to properly seal... They are designed to be a DIRECT replacement gasket and be reusable. Go search for them and provide me one link where the manufacturer of the gaskets state they require 2 extra intake manifold gaskets to properly seal 🤦 every ad I see says direct replacement gasket, including the skunk2 ones for Hondas and such. I have an intake manifold and throttle body thermal gasket for my car installed without any extra gaskets or sealer and it's not causing any vacuum leaks or anything..
@@Piotrush91 stop talking out of your ass and do some research first dude. Maybe if it was designed to be a spacer but they aren't, they are specially designed to be replacement gaskets to reduce heat soak to the intake manifold and be reusable unlike alot of Intake gaskets
I love the content on your channel when it involves Subaru's and Evo's... they are engines with an engineering that fascinates me... Hugs from Portugal
Not spacers… those are torque solution thermal intake manifold gaskets. You DO NOT need to use a factory gasket, or anything else with them. I’ve used them for years on hondas, subies and evos and never had a single issue.
Time to get the milwaukee m12 high speed extended ratchet! you'll love it for working in the engine bay altho the 18v impact is fine too lol. bigger. I think its cool how you are all excited using the new tools. Sweet car to work on, fun build!! im sure you'll be doing it justice
I was like wait wut did Rodney blew up? Then I recalled you had another one sitting there. They're such nice cars. This one looks good already as well. Going to be a good one, best of luck and have fun rebuilding!
What song is that on your outro? It's dope. Please link it down in your description. A great video. I just started watching your channel. I started with Josh and Tanner,and Jr. Now I'm watching you. A one man ass kicking Subaru and Evo guy. Oh yeahhhh.
Bro buy an Audi rs3. AWD Quattro 5 cylinder. 400 hp stock. Little fucking rocket ship. Easy to make reliable power with. I bought one a few months ago and I fucking love it.
@@hal0mann agreed. Aside from going with a 12mm, I Thought the point of them was to fix the weak head bolt issue, which was the reason for me pushing coolant in the first place.
I don't know how you Americans drive or take care of your cars. I've had like 5 wrxs and a few STI s and I've never blew a engine . I just made sure the iilol was toped up and I never had any problems , the cars were very reliable actually
So what’s the cause? Saw debate that the spacers were missing gaskets. Is it not enough oil? It has all the right reliability mods… AOS, Rad, c-4 cooling mod, what went wrong? Was it the stock oil pickup, windage tray, pan?
Some of those thermo gaskets are advertised as teflon ones that are said not to need the gaskets on each side as the phenolic ones. Many malaysian sellers carry the teflon type so it might be that.
man if was running lean and detonating, how does someone not keep an eye on that on their ecutek app or cobb tuner and get it fixed especially with the quality of mods on this car. like the guy must have had more money (and honestly decent taste) than common sense

Every build is epic! The two civics where super clean and now the STI, can’t wait to see the breakdown and see the finished product on this beauty!!!!
All of you guys have so much Subie and Evo knowledge. A great channel, I love it.Subies ❤️ forever.
I have been waiting for this build since u picked it up! Its so clean already.
I just wish devin to take all them best parts for bobbi's grey one and built a mothership STI
I think Bobbi sold the series grey STI...
@@andrewwilbanks5326 nope still on the rosster
Facts, it would be something different for sure 😮💨
Think that is his plan with the Hawkeye
I love the content on your channel when it involves Subaru's and Evo's... they are engines with an engineering that fascinates me... Hugs from Portugal
We need to see you start driving these cars your building 😅 keep up the good work I’m here for it all ❤
I’ve been waiting for this build for a while!

What you think caused the engine damage? And could the spacers been made poorly?
Finally some Subaru content back. Love the Honda content btw just missed the STI content 😂
Time to get that 3/8” stubby impact by Milwaukee.
Knock Knock .. Who's there?
Rodney!!!
The outro song is dope. A great video, brother. Subies forever.
Thank you for bringing the Subaru content back. Those Honda builds were absolutely nauseating.
Can’t wait to see the pistons and ring lands. Clean car .
I swear he does more in a 1hr period than I do In a whole day period haha I be taking breaks to sip a beer or watch some random TH-cam video
Haha yep me too. Dude is driven.
so glad ur finally fixing this STI it’s actually super clean and finally gonna be done right with the motor ‼️
Love how devin is using Milwaukee!!
Get the high output 3.0 so it makes the tool slight portable and less fatigue on your hands.
#teamred
You should pick up some Milwaukee M12 tools. The M12 stubby impact and the ratchet are super light and amazing with plenty of breaking torque
Killer beat at the end......
Man i wish i knew how to work on cars like you do, i wouldn’t have this many issues with my EVO
Same here, but not because of issues. I would like to just work on cars for fun.
Lol sometimes Devin make us all feel like mechanics and think we can just go fix our cars too 😂😂😂😂
You should buy the Milwaukee stubby 3/8 and 3/8 long reach ratchet, amazing tools
Sheesh today I finally got to dismantle an EJ25 for my first time for a head gasket. 😂I can say I don’t wanna blow my STI anytime soon lol
Love the Honda,evo,sti content I own a 2020 sti and learning from you and basically learning what to do and not do the Subaru’s
LETS GO DEVIN BACK ON AN STI BUILD??? SUCH A W
Devin thanks for being such a cool guy. I love following your builds. You inspire me. Keep doing what you’re doing.
That's the cleanest subie I've ever seen 😳
Time to get the milwaukee m12 high speed extended ratchet! you'll love it for working in the engine bay
altho the 18v impact is fine too lol. bigger. I think its cool how you are all excited using the new tools. Sweet car to work on, fun build!! im sure you'll be doing it justice
When the silicone wires are hard to come off, heat them up a bit with a heat gun
great content as usual but gota say...ur editing is dope af as always with sick beats. jus had to shoutout ur editing
I was like wait wut did Rodney blew up? Then I recalled you had another one sitting there. They're such nice cars. This one looks good already as well. Going to be a good one, best of luck and have fun rebuilding!
Glad to see it worked. On
Good stuff Devin...love to people bring vehicles back to life!!
Damn that underside is so clean.
Amazing song from this engine! 😍

My man doesn’t rest 🔥
Yes Subaru project just look at the beauty of that baby 💯👍
When’s the Hawkeye build starting?
Glad to see you finally using Milwaukee tools! 😆😆
I really like the new background music!
Sti is well cared for
Excited!
I love your wrx sti videos idk if your a fan of just the wrx but I’d love a new build for just a wrx 2019 if you find one that needs repairing
Best looking car on the lot
Bro buy an Audi rs3. AWD Quattro 5 cylinder. 400 hp stock. Little fucking rocket ship. Easy to make reliable power with. I bought one a few months ago and I fucking love it.
I think he prefers the 4 Cylinders to most things. I'm debating between an RS3, or a GTR 35 for the next vehicle hopefully.
@@MacchiMulatto those gtr sound incredible. A friend of mine had one and it sounded beastly lol
@@MacchiMulatto GTR for sure.
Loving this channel each and every day 🙌
LETTSSS GOOOO I've always wanted an STI since high-school
have you ever started saving for one?
Finallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy😢
Keep it for keeps 🤘🏾🫀
Hell yeah I’ve been waiting for this car 🔥
Drop the quad tips back on.. 💯 should do one of those cool looking manifolds that josh uses
stoked for this build!
You can rebuild them pumps yourself.....if you have the right seals
Gtr r35 next 🤔🤔
New 1/2 impact lookin good
hell yea! nice work dude!
I THINK the spacers were used to clear the turbo inlet for that huge ass fp black, thats the only thing i can imagine it for
The best JDM Garage 🔥❤️🔥
Damm I had forgot about this car ..hell yes let's go
I wish i had the funds and space to do projects like this. One day.
Put a Tomei exhaust on subie and makes your car more speeds
Just EJ257 things, 207's have a lot less issues lol.
that looks like it got some goodies on it
Surprised you didn't know what phenolic spacers are. Science behind them seems legit.
So clean wow!
I put ARP 2000 in my build after I pulled it. Makes me sad that Josh says it’s No bueno…
Why are arp 2000s bad? Like I don't understand why would a high strength head stud push coolant unless you're pushing mega boost
@@hal0mann agreed. Aside from going with a 12mm, I Thought the point of them was to fix the weak head bolt issue, which was the reason for me pushing coolant in the first place.
Ayeeeee let’s gooooo Devin
Keep dem coming broo😎🔥
That knock makes me cry. 😓 spun rod bearing?
Great video! Subbed
dude i love this shit your the goat
yessir 💪🏽
New subscriber here from philippines
I bought a brand new sti in 2012. 7 miles on it. Blew the engine in 2 weeks. 4th cylinder grenaded. Will never buy again.
Evo cuz !
Let's go!!!!
Do you have link for the car jumper /battery jumper please ?
Hola amigo saludos desde CDMX México 👍 tienes puro carro chingón ☺️
Missing gaskets between the spacers for the TGV's. OOPS!
I don't know how you Americans drive or take care of your cars. I've had like 5 wrxs and a few STI s and I've never blew a engine . I just made sure the iilol was toped up and I never had any problems , the cars were very reliable actually
I think you, Tanner and Josh need to call out each other. Bader and Tanner are on that, let’s bring Devin in… 🎉🎉🎉
Both you and smeedia keep hitting up Josh for info, 😂😂😂 OMG I love it. We all know who the Subaru King is.
Tear down that spoiler. Hot
Damn.
Finally a non hond-ugh video
That oil pan bolt was sooooo loose sheeesh!
It’s just gonna blow up again after the first couple of pulls🤷🏼♀️
Damn there is some serious $ spent on parts on this car. Literally everything has been changed.
Yessssss about time lol
What ever happened to the white Hawkeye "racecar" build?
Thought this was starting to be a crappy Honda channel hope you keep building cool cars you have better cars to build like this sti
I’ll buy it from you If you decide to sale later down the road.
Tell me the biggest problems about 2019... 2023 Subarus sti. I'm thinking buy one
6:17 I cringed so hard as you scraped that Koyorad against the core support and bent a shit ton of fins 😬
So what’s the cause? Saw debate that the spacers were missing gaskets. Is it not enough oil? It has all the right reliability mods… AOS, Rad, c-4 cooling mod, what went wrong? Was it the stock oil pickup, windage tray, pan?
Ya she dummy clean.
أنا من أشد المعجبين بيك ونفسي اسافرللك من القاهره واشتغل معاك ف العربيات
