This series has accidentally been the most compelling "Under absolutely no circumstances should you buy a Subaru" advertisement ever.
Was about to comment the same
I’m never in my life getting a Subaru
@Jack Wrath No you don't
@Jack Wrath if your videos were so good, you wouldn't need to advertise yourself under legit every single comment on someone else's video.
@Jack Wrath all you have is a playlist titled videos from a channel that isn't yours by a channel with a fake check
If you make better vids you wouldn't be jumping on "cringetubers" channels your videos would do the talking...
This series has quickly become a season of money pit
somehow Hi car is the money pit and not low car :D
Haha totally agree. If they had filmed this more recently, they could have taken the advice of subscribers on like the first few episodes to get a better oil pan. Lots of people were commenting that the stock WRX oil pan allows oil to stray from the pickup tube under hard cornering like track days, which can be solved with better baffling and more capacity like the Killer B pan. Probably would have saved them a few engines by preventing oil starvation that results in worn/spun bearings.
@@drshocking1229 thats the whole point lmao
I like that this time they took a car wichs is known to have not a great engine and yeah it shows one motor swap after the other a new hi car i mean man that sucks bud also its kind of realstic when u go tinkering to make a second gand car faster

I’m glad Donut still does high quality videos like this and not solely easy click bait / reaction stuff. This channel has blown up but it’s still maintained what brought me in the first place.

Looks more like their job to me. If this was their own money I'd agree
@@Thumper68 Vaz from far cry be like
im really glad they listed all the supporting mods they needed to get to make this work. I was always curious in previous builds
the pain of car modding. you want to upgrade one part but then you realize you need to upgrade or modify 5 others to get it to even work, and then you need to upgrade or modify another 7 to accommodate those 5

Really testing out that ebay sponsorship
I half rolled my 06 wrx in poor conditions last year on November 11th 2021 at 257k miles.
I didn't have the funds to repair the roof and A-pillar but I had my spare 04 2.5rs shell that was WRX swapped by the previous owner.
Sometime in October a couple months back I finally got the motivation to see if the engine was still saveable, did an oil change, primed the oil system and after plugging the fuel relay back in she fired right over.
Ran her through a few heatcycles to rule out any possible gremlins and she checked out.
Still felt excruciatingly hopeless considering it was the factory longblock that I refreshed the heads on at 239k and added some reliability focused upgrades/mods.
When I drained the oil I was pleasantly surprised to find no shavings or excessive metal indicating any failure.
Coolant was old but clean of any foreign contaminants
So ive been in the process of swapping my 06's engine, drivetrain, subframe's, engine/chassis harness and full interior (dash and all) into the 04 shell after doing a full teardown on that one too.
I've owned my 06 since 2015, she's my heart and soul and ever since i wrecked her ive been lost.
So I revived her into a new body so she can live on and be alive once more.
I'm so close to finishing the swap, at the end of today she will breathe life once again after the seats are installed, rear subframe, drivetrain, engine, and new whiteline suspension components.
Yeah Subarus get a bad rep, but they tend to find THEIR owners. Ones who will love them unconditionally and take care of them.
You can still have so much fun and get so much enjoyment out of these cars but the important points to achieve that are PRIORITIZE PREVENATIVE MAINTENANCE AND RELIABILITY FOCUSED SUPPORTING MODS.
You have to start with a solid foundation before you can build on it.
Pro ( not a pro ) Tip - but it’s always a good idea to do a oil change before doing a major upgrade . Even if u may have to drain the oil again you will find issues like metal in oil and save yourself a lot of time not having to take new parts back off . Done multiple upgrades over the years and this saved me atleast a days worth of work twice so far .
I have no idea what the financials of Donut Media look like but I get so scared every time they have to replace an engine or anything like that. I really love this series and I hope it stays financially viable for the foreseeable future!
Replace an engine? They replaced a whole car this time lol

Nolan has become one hell of a driver and a modder!

Got the wife a new 2016 WRX. Figured I'd tune it and she would have an STI. Called COBB to ask about reliability and longevity after a tune. They said the powertrain wouldn't survive 50k miles after a tune... This series has solidified that information.

As someone who did the Ebay turbo swap on an 02 Wrx, I can say the cheap turbos do great powerwise, as I could make 22 psi of boost on 91 octane on the stage 2 cobb tune
yeah, makes me wonder what the boost level and other differences were
Watching this makes me appreciate the skill level of people able to keep their Subaru running each week.

@@dilloncrain9111 shut up scammer
Hell yeah, love to see these guys working together on such cool projects, makes it look easy
This series has me in tears and makes me love my evo so much more 😂😂😂.
I miss the breakdown at the end where Nolan and James talk about the benefits of both and discuss which one is actually worth it. We all obviously expect to see the more expensive parts to perform better, but having people actually sit down and say whether they'd spring for the more expensive parts feels way more genuine.
I felt the same way, the gains on low car were seriously impressive for the price. I think they glossed over it because it'd be really hard to talk specifically about the turbos in amongst everything they did this episode. Both engines were basically rebuilt and there are a lot of supporting mods that probably deserved their own episodes, this one could have been feature-length but I think they worked hard enough on it as it is haha
think they're just tired from spending 2 weeks in agony over this cars lmao
Too busy replacing engines.
The other issue is they are not looking at the same turbo James didn't get a buschur 20G he went with a 3071R. So it's not like looking at a cheap option of the same spec turbo. It's been one of my issues with the whole high low cars set up. They do almost no research into anything they buy. Almost as if they just do shopping on reddit. More expensive more better. It's gonna get to the point to where they buy 2 super cars one with an engine and one with out and race them to see which ones faster. I had to tap out of this episode It's not for me.
@@TinoR626to be honest the only thing that made the 1st season of HiLow so entertaining was mostly the actual building of cars and the misc stuff that happened in-between, now they’ve basically removed that entire idea and just tell you what they bought, how it works, do a small building montage with some bits in it, and then show you the obvious results

Next video: Cheap vs expensive built EJ25
I'd like to see a built 5spd versus a 6spd swap, but we all know the 6spd would still destroy it in every way except 0-60.
only one that holds is the 6spd sti trans many buddies killed stock bottom ends and 5spds second they got over 300
jokes on you that was the first episode
6 speed all the way for sure, better gear ratios mo powwah baby
Moral of story: subie life is indeed the hard life. Filled with pain. It’s legit crazy how many motors they’ve gone through for this series and I love it
I mean... They're legitimately old cars that generally get purchased by young men... who often beat the shit out of them and have to wait a paycheck or two for maintenance.
The EJ25 engine was known for weak head gaskets as well.
@Jack Wrath No you don't.
"Love is what makes a Subaru, a Subaru"
It's because they don't know how to fucking maintain them and it's super annoying that they're feeding the bad image of Subaru reliability
@@governmentgrunt8001 dude, wake up.
"Hey bro, is your car leaking?" "Yeah, so what?" 😂 I felt that.
Few things you guys needed to know before jumping into a subaru platform. These cars are usually reliable at stock power, and the ej engines start to run into issues when you increase the power without proper support mods + good tune.
When you bring it to the track, there are a few things that need to be addressed right the way.
1st, Oil temperature issue, boxer engines make a lot of heat, and they heat up the oil real quick. So, getting an air to oil cooler is highly recommended.
2nd, unlike straight 4 configuration engines, gravity does not help boxer engines drain back the oil as well as the straight 4 engines. So it's best to have a larger baffled wet sump to keep the oil at the pickup tube.
3rd, ej25's pickup tube is known to crack easily. Hence, you see lots of aftermarket companies sell baffle oil pan + pickup tube as a package deal to address this issue.
4th, it's just the nature of a turbo charged engine, where lots of positive crank case pressure is being built up. Such that factory PCV system doesn't really help combat recirculating oil fuel mixture back into the combustion chamber, which can potentially cause detonation during the compression stroke. So, ej turbo charged engines need an AOS system (catch can) to separate positive crank case air pressure from its oil fuel mixture.
With all the mods, ej engine would become quite reliable until you run into older ej engine's gasket issues or the newer ej engine's ringland issues at a high boost.
But what I concern most about the next issue would be the dodgy wrx gear box. Unlike the sti gear box, the base wrx gear box is built of Swiss cheese, so now that you guys are running at high power output, the dodgy gear box will give eventually. You're warned.
This series had proved to me that Nolan is a way better driver than I thought, he continually posts good times even when driving low car
It’s cause the low car has 30 more hp
@@NANA-es9nv he did good time on both cars bruh
@@NANA-es9nv "It’s cause the low car has 30 more hp"

This series is a great example of why you don’t just throw random parts with no knowledge at a Subaru, do zero
maintenance, no break ins and expect it to work. You blow them up if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Yes this. everyones piling on the negative comments though
Fr!
12:20 As a Subaru owner, I sincerely hope Low Car's center differential is still good after towing like that. The owner's manual recommends flatbed towing, but allows for manual transmission models to be towed with all four wheels still on the ground with the transmission in neutral. If you tow it like you did with the front wheels in the air you will cause the viscous center differential to spin and heat up. Good luck with the rest of this series. Hopefully nothing else goes wrong.
We removed the driveshafts for the tow 👍
@@Donut Okay, now that makes sense. Good thinking.

they are using so much money for this video and i love it thanks donut media!
I'm not sure there's enough units of that car in existence to sustain this series until the end, but it's very interesting to watch :D
Watching this makes me appreciate the skill level of professional race teams ability to keep their cars running week after week
Imagine F1 teams upkeeping their multi million dollar cars
yup but professional race teams have alot of money to spend on parts and time
@@dennis_nl7587 f1 engineers are mindblowing
They also don't rev their engines after sitting cold and dry for an hour+ just cuz they wanna hear the exhaust sound.
@@k-aw-teksleepysageuni8181yeah this series has really highlighted no one at donut media actually knows anything about cars beyond spec sheets in magazines
Never had a single issue with my Type RA
Oiling and semi-closed deck blocks are the most understated problems with Subaru builds, you have to have better oiling and better cylinder support than you get from factory, even the 257 block isn’t closed deck. There are great closed deck blocks out there but they start in the 3k range.
Whenever I find myself wanting a Subaru, I'm going to come back and watch this series again to remind myself that's a BAD idea.
I have one. Wanted one ever since I was 6 years old and it’s super underwhelming …
No its not.... having one and im happy with it
@@kamilkrait5873 Old STis are pretty fun to drive, of course maintenance is probably awful and why none of my friends own STis anymore.
L.S or 2jz swap it
I want a Hawkeye sti so bad but I'm deterred due to reliability.
It's hilarious to see you guys dealing with all the issues we dealt with when these cars were new. What a great Hi/Low series this has been to watch.
