There are some cool wrx builds on the internet. But in my opinion this is the best. Wrc inspired subies are my absolute favorite. 👌👌
Thanks bro! Means a lot! Hopefully other people start to catch on too 😉
Clean functional build is always way better than flashy undriveable show ride. Great job!
Thank you for watching! Really happy with it so far 😎
Imma do my car like this, I love the body kit so much and the car sits so nicely
Beautifully engineered, well done
Thank you!
Awesome WRX. Beautiful build and I live the way you explained everything. I have a 2.5 running 340HP in my 04 Club Spec. Similar to yours but still a ways to go. Lovely to see a really nice functional build.
This is great 👌 can’t wait to see what you end up doing for the dual caliper setup in the rear!
Thanks dude! Same, that will be a fun one!
I love your car, its like something I would build on forza.
Your a genius man, absolutely love the build
Thanks for watching man! And for the compliment 🙃
Thank you for the video, this answered a lot of my questions!
Oh awesome! That was the goal! Stoked you got something out of it :)
You have given me some great ideas for my JDM bugeye wagon STI. Thanks man
Thanks for watching!
Really well explained, very informative and to the point!
Thanks for watching! 🤘🏻
Insane build, looks so badass!!!
Thanks so much bro!
Man your car is really cool
Thanks for sharing this video dude
No, thank you for watching! Hope that answered your drivetrain questions from the other video 🤝
This guy is spot on about how he goes about his build. Wicked smart how he maximizes efficiency instead of just giving it mad boost. only thing he needs is rocket antilag kit loo
Yes it does need anti lag! 🙌🏻
Just really enjoyed this video and your work man! Beautiful car dude 🤙🏻
Thanks so much for watching!
I like the direction you went with the car. Going to a traditional turbo setup and loosing the recirculating system, the wide body, and maintained the drivability of the car. I love HP but being able to DRIVE a car makes it a joy to drive. I have a ‘02 wagon I’m building, nothing special or worth bragging about but I would like to do the turbo set up you used. I’ll have to check out MAP conversations and see what’s up. Nice build!!!
seen this thing in person last supertuner meet. Thing is mad sick!
Thanks for coming to the meet bro!
Damn man I got so much info on this and love the build !
Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻 stoked you liked it 🤙🏻
Sick wrx! Keep up the good job.
Thanks brotha!
Just found your page man, love the content. Idk why you don’t have more subscribers lol.
Thanks bro! 🤘🏻 I thinks We will grow as our content gets better, our uploads more frequent and as people share!
You earned a New sub ! Love your bugeye
great build mate! nice bug! regarding the Rally wheels, those are Compomotive TH2, a bit diffrent wheel and material. chers and good luck with the furthure projects
Congratulations. You have built a wonderfull machine.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed 👊🏻
My first car was a bugeye and I’ve always wanted to build one and this is the perfect build
Man I would have done anything to have a wrx as my first car lol
Supertuner it was the cheapest rustiest peice but it ran well. 180k original engine turbo and trans when I sold it. Was pretty but it sure was a blast
Damn dude thats clean
Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻
I want to build an s7 inspired wrx. This is great to see.
Thanks!
This car is beautiful
So many good points that I feel like most people, including myself, would look over.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Seriously cool I hope to see this on the streets sometime soon
Thanks man! Are you local?
@@Supertuner yeah I am in the valley
Come out to our meet this Friday! Check our fb event or if post for details!
@@Supertuner I would if i didn't work nights. But I will keep an eye out for later events.
Engine set up looks great/clean. I think you should paint the manifold a different color. But it’s your build, so if you like it. That’s cool too 😎
Thanks man! I like painted manifolds too🤙🏻
This is hot bro. Bugeyes for life
Ey thanks dude! They’re the best looking gen❤️
Have you added a skid plate for aero and protection? I took my U sub frame out today. I noticed the steering was a lil more drifty. stock struts with lowering springs from previous owner. I want to get tein mono sport but ill prob end up with flex z. I don't want it dropped anymore. I want a cusco subframe brace, for the price of an oem u frame cusco seems the way to go. inspiring build you got there. congratulations. That's really cool u got the G motor closed deck. I been sweeting up a jdm ej207 before I swap it in.
amazing build bro love the channel
2016 Wrx owner here .#subiegang
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
The wrap looks amazing man I’m surprised it was your first
🙏🏻 ty ty. Some parts are starting to not hold up as well but good news is I can always redo sections. 🤙🏻
So good. After you add the cage, you could save weight by losing 10 lbs. I know you can do it Jordan!
Ha ha ha for real 😂😂😂😂😂
Getting a like for the time stamps, four I'll use them tho cuz I want this as my first car
Hell yeah 👊🏻
Wow what an absolutely incredible build. My hat is off to you! That’s a sweet car! Is the transmission an STI one or just JDM 6 speed?
Thanks! It’s a jdm sti 6 speed!
Nice
If someone made a list I’m interested in seeing it cause I’m currently stock and I wanna see the cost of this👍
Yo, your engine layout is basically exactly how I wanna do mine (04 wrx). Though, a low mounted turbo would be pretty cool too. I'd also like to do a carbon roof one day. It's too bad you gotta remove the front and rear windshield when you do it. Did you know the Spec C's came with lighter glass? It apparently flexes when they're cleaned. Cool build overall and the wrap is really good for DIY!
Thanks man! 🙏🏻 and no I didn’t know that about the glass, that’s super interesting.
Well made video! I’m wondering what’s the name of the song at 11:20-11:40 ?
Innovative. Good work
This is the car that inspired me to get the integrale white wheels! What are your tire specs??? I love the build, keep it up!
Thanks for watching man! 🙏🏻 here are the specs on those th-cam.com/video/R9Fkz7zKKuY/w-d-xo.html
What would you do different if you were circuit track racing?
Good video! What is the song called?
Get a reverse hood scoop to allow good flow of air thru intercooler and out air out of the reversed hood scoop...m
Mmmm yeah but they are just ugly 😂
@@Supertuner i know what u mean...lol
Hey man the wrap looks awesome! Where did you get the vinyl?
Mmmm I don’t remember I just ordered a roll online
hey, what intercooler did you use?
Love your car! I feel like there are still something you could do, just thoughts :)
1. Since you already have front mount i/t cooler, I think better to resource a impreza rs hood without hood scoop and put hood vent on there for better aero and cooling
2. Maybe put a cockpit vent on the roof?
3. I wonder if there is any WRC front hood lamp mount replica on sale? It will look so good on your car
4. Since you mention you will get full cage in your car, so I think the everything will be tore apart interior, so I think it is better to get rid of the front/rear strut tower brace and welding the cage tube to there to reinforce them and save weight
5. Fully cover your underneath to reduce aero turbulence and make more down force
Hell yeah! All great ideas and some are in the works :))))
@@Supertuner wrc bumper from rpg carbon and roof vent would look really good on this.. hopefully by next year my car will look pretty close to this
Roof scoop please!!!!
RS hood weighs a ton more than the WRX hood
RS hood weighs a ton more than the WRX hood
Great content!! Why d u stop making videos? :/
What’s up man! There will be more in the future!
nice bug eye! I'm building mine right now =D i do have one question.. how long u been growing out that hair my dood?
What up! Thanks for watching 👊🏻 I’ve had long hair since 2004! But recently cut it crazy change...
Damn can’t wait to see this hit the hoonigan burn yard!! Also, what’s your reasoning on keeping a hood scoop?
Duuuuuude I want to hold it down for the awd crowd at the burn yard! Scoop in keeping with the WRC styling and to get more cool air into the bay.
Jack Cleary no you
Sick build man all the answers I’ve been searching for! Started to think I’d made a mistake with The ej20g. Are you using mostly usdm ej205 parts?
Thanks for watching! The ej20g block halfs are stout! I am using ej205 head cores. all other parts internally are aftermarket through out the long block.
Supertuner the 20g has some big fans and some big haters! I just got a version 1 STI and at first I wasn’t seeing a ton of aftermarket support I guess it just takes a little bit of ingenuity! So you’re running just regular 205 heads? No port/polish? Obviously internals then big turbo in terms of what I should do first but which modification did you see the most gain from? I’ve already got the Link g4 ecu so I’m excited to get into this build. My wallet not so much 😂
Rad that you have the link! Standalone sand good tuning will be key! No pnp just built heads. 272 cams, valves, springs etc.
For the most part engine internals are not noticeable mods but slow you to safely make more power with bigger turbo and more fuel.
Supertuner yeah that’s what i figured sounds like it’s all about being patient. Did you get the measurements for your intercooler piping by chance? Sorry about the 20 questions haha
Yo brotha youv answerd a few questions for me n help me with my sti. But i was really wondering exactly what version jdm sti motor are running
What’s up man! Only the short block halves are from a Japanese sti. So they are closed deck halves with oil squirters. I do not know the version but it should be easy to research and figure out with that info. The rest of the engine is all aftermarket components with usdm 2.0 heads.
Gotta be version 1 or 2,after that they went open then semi closed.
how do you open your gas tank cover thing? the gas fill port cover. idk the offical name for it....
Same as oem. It clears the widebody.
Did you say you were able to run a cobb accessport on a jdm ej20? Do you get all features of the accessport such as tuning to stage 1 or 2?
I run an access port. It’s just a matter of running the accesspoer that matches your ecu. It’s on a custom tune.
Oh yea Seibon carbon hood and wing. any plans for Seibon parts?
No plans for any
Thanks for sharing your expertise, I have a 06 WRX and you inspired me. If you will indulge me I have a question. I love my stock rims (17x7) but they are a bit inside the fender. You mentioned that you have spacers on I was considering them but I have heard so many negative reviews. What are your thoughts on spacers? Thanks for your advice and time.
I can’t tell you they are safe and be responsible lol... but I think it comes down to using a quality product with proper installation and continued inspection.
There are other things to consider like potential wheel bearing wear over the long term depending on how wide you space.
@@Supertuner yep, my same thoughts. Thanks for the quick response 👍
I am trying to look for the sparco steering wheel everywhere! Any idea what your model is called?
I’m actually not sure I bought it used almost 10 years ago.
Great work. How much boost are you running for the 340whp
You got me! I can’t remember off the top of my head I’ll look next time I drive the WRX. I believe it is only around 18 psi. Pretty conservative.
@@Supertuner fuck you
Appreciate this info and build. The turbo housing is .63 or .82?
🙏🏻ty! I can’t remember off the top of my head I’d have to check for you.
@@Supertuner ok np thanks
I know this is a older video but, if you could help. I’m wondering what you did with the coolant tank that sits on top of the intake. And the over flow
I deleted it and rerouted the lines to clean up the engine bay. However I wouldn’t recommend deleting it because it makes it really hard to get all air bubbles out of the coolant system. Thanks for watching 🤘🏻
It’s so freaking clean without it, I think it might be worth it.
How have you held the rear windows up when the regulator is removed? Is that a kit you’ve purchased?
No kit. You can remove the motor and the arm but leave the track in place. Get the window into position and then put a metal screw through the track under the rollers that are connected to the glass to hold the window in place
I wanted to do a 6mt swap on my 03 wrx what’s the easiest way to do it ? Or is there any way to build the 5spd strong
You can do both, just depends what you want. The six speed is far superior though. There’s a lot of information out there on this swap. You can do it with or without changing your hubs to 5x114 and that’s the main difference in 6speed swaps.
How did you run the oil catch cans?
I recommend spending the money and getting a nice kit from Rallysport direct. My home made setup isn’t great.
Yoooo... I have a buggye wagon. Could i do this?
Morret headlights are very similar
Similar look for sure!
good friend, what body kit did you use?
Hey man! Oem bumpers. Prodrive lip. Htauto front fenders, eBay rear fenders and s7 wrc spoiler from rpg.
Are you located in California? I’d love to catch you at a meet sometime and get a good look at the car and maybe pick your brain a little bit about my 2004 Wrx. Your build is very inspiring.
I’m in Utah 🤙🏻
Dang it! Lol right on for replying and staying active with your subscribers. I appreciate that kind of stuff. Keep on doing what your doing and we’ll be right here supporting you! 🤙🏻
Can’t thank you enough! Appreciate you watching 🤝
What size steering wheel are you running?
Oooo good question without measuring I’m not sure. I picked it up off a local classifieds post years ago...
I'm sorry if i skipped it but, what size tires are you running?
Here’s all the details on the wheel and tire setup! 🤘🏻 th-cam.com/video/R9Fkz7zKKuY/w-d-xo.html
I've seen alot of people do that front intercooler placement, and for me the tubes don't look good wrapping around the whole engine bay. I like your setup better. You have past videos on how you did it?
Thanks man! 🙏🏻 I built that stuff before starting the channel so I don’t have videos on it :/
If you run into issues with the MAF and need to go home, just unplug it. The ECU will run as "speed density" with the MAP sensor, baro sensor, in relation to RPM. Basically limp mode. But it will still run, just not as efficient.
I have no MAF. Tuned on speed density 🤙🏻
@@Supertuner Absolutely. Just adding to your comment on the MAF having issues if it fails. Very nice build, btw. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching man!
@@Supertuner You bet. Always a treat!
Awesome build! Do you still have the rex? I get so disappointed, because many Subie builds, unfortunately, end up parted out... Please tell me this thing is still alive and running...
It’s alive man! Just been slacking on making videos 😭 thanks for watching!!!
@@Supertuner that's a relief! I thought another one bit the dust... Those 2 liter builds seem to last the longest... Love the channel! U got some AMAZING content, u really deserve more subscribers 👍
You said that the over fenders are from eBay - would you be able to give any more specific details?
I’ve had this wide body for about 9 years so I don’t have a link. But if you search for wrx wide body you can still find stuff that looks similar.
Supertuner I appreciate it!
Where did you get this style fmic that mounts up high like that? And if it's not too much to ask how exactly does one go about switching to map from maf?
Thanks for watching! Great questions. I built the intercooler kit so it’s not something you can buy as a kit.
To switch to map tuning you need to upgrade your MAP sensor and wire in a IAT sensor and then you need a custom tune to run it.
Awesome thanks for the response man love the build and the channel keep up the good work. One more question though sorry, is the intercooler just like any other fmic youd find you just mounted it up higher?
No problem, The intercooler core it’s self is a universal core that is meant to be used when you fabricate you’re own Kit. So I just built the mounting brackets piping and everything else to make it fit and work. The core is smaller, a full size front mount wouldn’t fit up high.
kinda late but are you still using the stock 5 speed or is it built?
Six speed! Thanks for watching.
Where can I get the front sticker super tuner ?
We sell them at supertunerusa.com but they are out of stock at the moment... stay tuned!
I'm really partial to the red Subarus. One day I'll have a red wide body gc coupe
Hell yeah dude!
@@Supertuner Also can I just say; this car is just immaculate. The thought that went into all the details on this vehicle. Genius is the only word for it.
Thanks my man! Stoked to see your gc build!
What’s the reason you ewg doesn’t “flutter” like a lot of other setups? Does it depend on the type of boost solenoid. If so what are you running?
It depends on how your BCS is hooked up.
Why does it seem like he has no idea what he’s saying or reading off a script lmaoooo
That's a lot of orange peel in that wrap. Sick build though. Definitely one that I'll take some inspiration for my bugeye wagon build
Yeah it’s the paint underneath the wrap. I usually try to learn everything once and let’s just say painting is hard lol.
@@Supertuner Totally get it man. The slightest bit of contamination and the paint looks awful. That's why I'm sticking to rattle cans for now. Lol
Lol get it!
if my goal is 350-400 couldnt i go TMIC with a ej207 in my bugeye ? with a FP green 1050x cobb inj. and a few more mods of course. but i WANT to stay TMIC
I’m sure you could do it with some of the high end tmic that are out now! I ran an aps tmic for a long time
I think even factory STI TMICs will get you there
What size tires are you running?
th-cam.com/video/R9Fkz7zKKuY/w-d-xo.html
There you go! Thanks for watching!
No updates on the car?
What up man! Work and school has ya boy busy... BUT, some rad stuff coming in the future :)
How do u open the gas cap
I had that same question. But looking at it now, you can see the way it’s cut out allows it to open properly.
Opens the same, with the factory release and everything.
I cant even get my Subaru to run right im having so much trouble😔 I got a bpt16g turbo pretty much stock everything catless up pipe and down pipe aftermarket headers 3" Exhaust all the way back got an agency power bov no 02 sensors probably making I run like poop can't even get it to boost right or anything I really need some help😅 literally cant go faster than 35😂
Ah dude! There are some keys to live by when building a subaru. Right off the bat, your car will not run and will be damaged/blown with those mods if you don’t get an ecu tune ASAP. You don’t want to drive and hit boost until you have a tune.
I finally got it to run right, I picked up a turboxs piggyback ecu
@Jack Cleary no shit glad you know the difference between a hole and a sensor with wires, the upstream 02 sensor is more important than the down stream Im missing the downstream
Who sparco wheel is this I cannot find it
Honestly I bought it used a long time ago and don’t know what model it is...
Supertuner you still using it?🤣
They gave a kit on rising tuning with a front and rear wide body kit showing pics or your exact car? You team up with them? Are they legit or did they steal a pic of your car?
Who?
Ah just looked them up and have never heard of them... honestly pretty wack that they even blacked out my windshield then stole the content to use it to sell products that are not even on my car...
how much did this all cost?
That’s the question no one wants to know the answer too 😬😰.... at least I don’t lol
Supertuner i’d love to know a ballpark estimate. currently daily driving a bugeye, but plan to do a similar build in the near future!
WRB and gold....only :P
The classic
Did you paint it yourself, what’s up with that orange peel?
Painted them myself when the car was silver. Wrapped it red and orange peel shows through.
11:20
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
obviously tell you don't live where I live where it's hot ass not and you need AC but you could have done just electric AC motor
Yeah it’s a pretty uncomfortable sacrifice lol
What about doing that electric motor for your AC without a pulley
The motor is only part of the problem with the current setup. There is no where for the ac core because of where I have the intercooler placed.
So much orange peel
Oh yeah, endless amounts of orange peel under the wrap. 🤙🏻
How stoned is this guy?
i stopped listening when u tried explaining oil squiters and closed deck.
Cool 👍🏻
You sounds like your explaining to a three year olds
K
