    the WRX trans is definitely stronger than people give it credit for, my 2017 took 5 launches on a prepped strip at 4800rpm @6psi with 255's and flat foot shifting with 23psi before the factory clutch gave out, it was enough to lift the front and spin the tires, now it has a single disk rated for 800-900 so i never have to change it again 🤣

    So far I’ve made a good amount of 3rd gear pulls, a handful of launches, 3rd to 4th gear full boost pulls to redline and one 142mph pull. The hatch still lives on over 40k on stock block with all the goodies pushing 382wheel at 20 PSI on stock turbo.
    I always run Motul 300v 5w50 , 5w40, Redline 5w40, or Mobil 5w50. Oil gets changed every 3k even earlier if I beat on it.
    Keep up with maintenance, run good fuel, run genuine good parts, and tune tune tune for everything. Treat it well with attention to detail and take care of oiling, fuel, and cooling along with any and all power mods.
    Most importantly drive like a sensible human being, don’t go full boost below 2500rpm and don’t just floor it, ease into full throttle.
    Done right, these cars WILL take care of you and they are remarkably safe just ask my 30year experience paramedic/firefight father who cut hundreds if not thousands of people out of cars.

      Facts, I was intentionally dumping yhr clutch as hard as possible to send as much shock I could and it still barley broke. Tbh some JB weld on the hairline crack would prob fix it to keep going. But they're not bad cars like people make em out to be

      @@Smeedia it’s honestly a shame that these cars get such a bad reputation for their engines. You really only hear horror stories, are there flawed cars with defects out there that have issues even after all scheduled maintenance? Sure, but that’s the cost of ownership, if you can’t handle the cost of ownership then it may not be the right car and that’s okay. Don’t rush these cars, patience and timing is key to doing it right.

    Put spill pans in your chemicals cabinet. I use the base of molded plastic bins that you get for storing stuff underneath beds, etc. That way, if something leaks, it is contained and it won't find it's way to an ignition source. Car guy and 35 years experience in the chemical industry speaking here. If shit can happen, it will.

    I lost 3rd gear today on my way to work in my 06 wrx. I shifted from 2nd to 3rd, there was a loud clank noise with a small grind noise (like a synchro grind) and now I have no 3rd gear at all. When driving it home the sound it's making is not a grinding sound but something is loose. I'm thinking I may have broke the 3rd gear shifter fork. All other gears seem to be fine. Thankfully I have a spare 5mt from my old 07 wrx and will be changing it this weekend.

    Shouldve done it when the weather was dry and the car hooked better. Then we will see how tough that 5spd is. I also own a hatch and really was looking forward to you destroying it. Lol. I've only seen videos and read from people saying their 'glass' trans exploding from only '07 and earlier owners.

    Hey man I got an issue with oil burning at high rpm, WOT usually ending of 3rd gear going into 4th it starts smoking a lot, can’t tell the color looks grey with blue tint kinda but I know for sure it smells like oil, and I thought it was the turbo seals but it’s not because there is oil coming out of the breather hose that connects from my valve cover to the intake. But I deleted that hose and wasn’t running anything to cover the hole on the valve cover, Only on the intake side. But it was running fine for 6k+ miles. And now when I start the car I can see vapors coming out of the hole. I have a 2006 scion tc (boosted)

    I kinda feel like we got a bit gypped on the promised content. 3 aggressive launches shouldn't kill a car or the 5 speed. I think we were all hoping for a torture test to really see where the limits are and how much abuse they can take and how overblown the unreliability claims are.
