Subaru Impreza Turbo Sedan 1998 Very cool car for driving around and a Perfect for a Rally Project. First thing you want to do is change the Spark plugs do you dont need to do it later.
You forgot one memorable Subaru model, the BRAT utility! And I own a 2000 Subaru Outback, and love it to death. In seven years of ownership, it has NEVER been towed or on a flatbed wrecker, always gets me to my destination with nary a problem.
2010 Impreza. Love her, and am now solidly in the Subaru cult. Amazingly after several cross-country trips she still has les than 80,000 miles. I cannot imagine owning anything other than a Subaru.
Colorado has more Subarus per capita than anywhere else on Earth and for good reasons; reliable, extremely practical yet fun, all wheel drive for bad weather and turbo for high altitude. The roads are thick with them here and I think it's great!
Sorry to be so pedantic but the rabbit is a scooter, not a moped. Mopeds are basically like bicycles with petals and an engine. Scooters have a covered engine in a flat floor
my family has owned every generation of outback besides the 5th gen and we've loved them all. our 4th gen was handed down to me and i love it to bits. its goes damn near anywhere and ive never gotten it stuck up here in snowy wisconsin.
I liked this video, but I hate the fact that every video about Subaru leaves out a bunch of models from the late 70's until early 90's as though its an embarrassment. My mom had a 1986 GL sedan, my dad had a 1978 Brat that he drove into the mid 80's, my step dad later got a 1993 Loyale and I had a 1988 DL wagon. Yes they were quirky and under powered, but they got us through bad weather back in the day.
Owning a Subaru was not all about power or performance. We owned several because they were 4wd wagons.. Our off grid home had very rough access but the 1.8 L Leone wagons could get in unless the flooded stream was too deep. However, the alloy engine was so light that 2wd (front) drive was hopeless in slippery conditions especially if there was a load in the back. 4wd usually got thru. Finally started using a Nissan Terrano which was more appropriate. The Subarus were quite reliable but as in the video, the hydraulic tappets were erratic, some times none, sometimes most would rattle away usually shutting up when the engines warmed up. The other common fault was headgaskets that let oil into the coolant water. A turd of a job to fix, radiator sealer additive worked for a while. The frameless door windows let rain in as their fit got old. They seemed unlikely vehicles to end up racing.
@@howardsimpson489 I've owned more Subarus in many configurations. Some I drove in stock condition, but most were modified for better operation. One I had was a 1988 Loyal sedan, it came into my possession with a fried engine, customer drove it 40 miles with no coolant in it. Anyway, opened the engine and had machine work done and replaced the heads, it had a turbo, from factory, and it was still ok. When it was done it was one of my favourites to drive. When you got to 50mph the air ride went down 2 inches and when you put it in 4wd it went up almost 2 inches. This engine also had the noisey lifters you mentioned, but 10w-30 oil and 1/2 at ATF, and it never made a peep. In regards, it's nice to see others having owned multiple Subys. Have a great day!
I have 8 (75-84) midels.right now...that ea81 is one of.the most reliable motors out there. The young guys don't know what old Subarus were about. Great on gas, cheap parts, high compression, run them on no oil, and good 4wd (for the time back then) my daily is a 85 gl coup and for winter a 84 gl wagon....best cars
Great video, great history lesson too. Subarus have been phenomenally successful here in Australia too. I remember lusting after the Brumby 4WD ute when I was in high school (now a cult classic), and trying to convince my older sister to buy a Leone coupe in the early '80s (had whacky features like digital dashboard, pillarless doors), which are rare as rockinghorse shit these days. As things turn out, my last three family cars (driven by my wife) have all been Foresters (MY'12, '14, '19). I'm in the process of finding an XV for my daughter's first car, if I can't find an acceptable one, not she'll be getting a Forester too... Subaru owners have a fair bit in common with Alfisti as "enthusiastic" devotees of the brand. Me - I'm both (all my personal cars in the last 12 years have been Alfas, and I currently have two - Alfetta GTV and 156 GTA).
Just got my third and the best one yet. Subaru Outback Wilderness, they took all that DNA and made a perfect outback and this is coming from a guy that drove two Foresters.
Nice video. I first heard about Subaru in the U.S. was early 1970s. It was an opposing 4-cyl, stick-shift and front-wheel drive. It had a radiator/heater combo via an air duct. I was quiet, smooth, reasonably fast. At the time, I was a newbie driver and could not afford new cars. I did recommended this to a middle-aged person, who bought one. The car ran fine for many years. I did not know that Subaru was making tiny car (really tiny) with 360cc 2-cyl. I think Honda also came to the U.S. with a 600cc 2-cyl (?). Those cars did not do well in the U.S. because U.S. at the time, was making much larger/heavier cars with monster engine. So the Japanese cars appear like toys.
My boss bought a subaru 4wd pickup in the 1980s it was a greate work horse. Did you know Harry ferguson reserch ( massey ferguson ) developed an all wheel drive hatch back car with antilock brakes electric windows ect in the mid to late 1950s I believe it is in the ferguson museum isle of white UK.
Whe everytime there is a video of Subaru history, they miss the best technology of 1980's. The first AWD with rear LSD, first fuel inyected, turbo, cvt, 6 cilinder ER27, first navigation system, first aerodinamic record by the XT, first air suspension by justy, sun roof, digital panel, etc.
Sorry for being padantic but Subaru means unite in Japanese. It is not the name of the pleadies star cluster. The cluster is called the pleadies, or M45. Also, the six stars represent the six companies that make up Fuji heavy industries. The brightest star is called Alcyone.
I work at Subaru and I'm always referring to the C-suite folks as "Mr. Subaru" (because I think it's funny) but it's nice to learn about the actual founder of the company
0:52 Nothing (probably). That's an EJ253 SOHC engine. They use a rocker arm instead of the valve buckets. If a DOHC engine makes that noise, then it's piston slap. But the SOHC engines make a very similar noise (it's different, but when it comes to audio on a YT video, it's often VERY difficult to tell the difference). It IS possible for a SOHC engine to experience piston slap BUT it's usually just normal rocker noise for the most part. I will say that if that is rocker noise, the valve clearance needs to be adjusted (but don't worry, despite it being an interference engine, it's not normal for the clearance to get so out of whack that the valve impact the piston).
Ya that wasn't knock lol. But there are later model turbo ejs that had rod bearing issues, even as late as 15'-18' sadly. They did extend the warranty on those though. I swapped both my ej251 Subarus with ej253-4s and my lord I beat the shit outta them. Have been since 2017, not a single issue, no codes ever. And I mean I beat the shit outta them. Redline and launch the legacy, off-road the Forester.
@@merl-lv7dp Had an EJ253 and it was bulletproof. Burned a quart every thousand miles but I kept it topped off and it ran great even with 240k, I beat the shit out of it and it just didn't care. Upgrading to a WRX though I'm scared to daily it.
Great video with a lot of things I didn't know! I thought this must be from a much larger channel than it is. Subscribed! You glossed over the share GM had on Subaru that was sold to Toyota, though, and that's an interesting story. They worked with Saab.
Other than the nose, that 1971 Leone looks a twin for the Honda 1300 coupe! Both geniuses in their own right though. Wonder which one was the nicest to drive?
Nice video ! Very informative. Subaru also got a boost when in one of the Winter Olympics in Japan ( can't remember year) it was chosen as the official olympic car ! Trinidad & tobago. West Indies.
You failed to mention Subarus partnership with Saab/ GM not Volvo. Also Subaru and Nissan (Prince) were founded at the same time and wee sister companies and later Nissan owned a stake in Subaru, not Toyota, they came later. The collaboration goes, Nissan, then GM/ Saab then Toyota. There were Impreza wagons sold as SAAB 9.3 wagons. GM sold of there percentage of Subaru during the 2007 market crisis to Toyota. You also used photos/ videos of the wrong generation of vehicles when speaking of the timeline. If you’re going to make videos about history, get it right
I guess I can feel proud that I bring Subaru parts in containers to Lafayette plant and contribute to more Subarus on the US roads 😅 Of course all straight from Japan!
In 1979 I set out to buy my first new car…a fuel efficient car. I visited multiple dealerships in this order: Datsun, Honda, Toyota, and Subaru (US autos didn’t have anything comparable, Euro autos were out of my price range). The sheet steel of the first three didn’t compare to the Subaru. So I bought a Subaru GL 4wd wagon. Ugly as heck, but better body steel and the others didn’t have a 4wd model available. The car served me well. So well that I bought an Outback in 2002, which I kept for 19 years. Now Subaru has an EV…time to save $ ?
Quite a few errors and missed models. So far Subaru has been very solid, reliable cars for me. My first were a 97 WRX clubsport and a Legacy Lets sees who knwos that one!
Why would Merikans not like the Subaru 360? Because you lot have small male appendages and think OVERLY LARGE TRUCKS will make up for the bodily shortcomings.
Nakajima aircraft were probably the best Japanese fighters of WW2. They were very classy aircrafts, extremely fast and could fly very high! I have made models of these great aircraft! I didn't have such a good view of the Subaru car ranking it as the worst as the worst brand of car I have ever owned.
Robert. I have often wondered what would have happened if WW II had gone on into 1946 and the Japanese had been able to get the incredible Nakajima Kikka operational. Whilst the Kikka looked like an Me262 it was wholly Japanese. If it had arrived earlier say in early 1944 I strongly suspect that the USAAF would have had major problems.
all Japanese were considered war criminals not becasue they "lost the war" like you said... they were war criminals cuz they committed war even the nazi were like yo yall need to chill .
Do you allude to a fact of Toyota owning 100% of Subaru? If so, that is not true, it is an independent company, which has share holders, Toyota being one of those share holders and industry partners.
Of all of the Japanese aircraft manufacturers of the 1930's and 1940's Nakajima was by far the best. Had WW II gone on into 1946 the allied bombers would have had a very nasty surprise in the Najajima Kikka. This was the first Japanese jet aircraft. Whilst it looked an Me262 . It was in fact wholly Japanese.
I hope you dont mix the things! Subaru wasnt a sucssesfull brand until getted into rallying! And since that era Subaru never made nothing significant! Like other brands Subaru made the Evo's better saying evolutions from the winner models and nothing more! And died to sport cars! Subaru Mitsubishi Toyota sleped over the victories and nowadays (unfortunely because i love that cars) are a simple memory of car rallying
To downplay the War Crimes of the Japanese in WWII is pretty Shitty. They got off much lighter than Germany because of the American occupation of Japan. Read up some on the Rape of Nanking. That statement alone colors this whole video.
Love these cars. As a mechanic, their poorly designed engines eat head gaskets. They paid for my house and kids education. Still have a line of them at the shop waiting for parts. Thanks
Even though head gasket issues are for the most part a thing of the past, Subaru hater will always bring it up as an ongoing problem. Keep up on maintenance and they will last a long time. I've had two and love everything about them.
@@no1lineman We have not had head gasket issues for a better part of 10 years! And that issue was with one engine only. What is this idiot talking about?
Your take on Japanese War Criminals is astonishingly obtuse. You obviously have no knowledge of the atrocities committed by the Japanese military upon every single other Asian nation, South Pacific Islander, Asiatic Islanders,and every nation’s Prisoner’s of War! Your foolish statements and lack of research on the subject disgusts me.
@@sheikhshit I would agree with you except he brought up the fact that rumors of miss givings by the Japanese were untrue. If you listen to the story, this is obviously a Japanese promotional film and they don’t educate their citizens on what they did in World War II. Don’t try and educate me on something that I learned about and have studied for years. Again, they brought it up, I’m clearing it up.
Yep, Ghensis Khan was a king and wise person who did not resort to murder, torture or infanticide at all, didn't slaughter all of the people in cities that he conquered either....Pol Pot was a pussy cat too, only 6 million. Get real, no country is without their own closet killers.
Hi! Did you have a Subaru? What did you think of this car?
I have a suzuki
best AWD that money can buy
i have a crosstrek manual 6 speed and i really like it. it's a tank in bad weather.

Btw "Subaru" (Nakajima) produced one of the best fighter planes of WW2, the Ki 84 Hayate.

Long time Subaru owners here. We’re on our 6th! It’s an Assent, and we couldn’t be more pleased😎

13:00 “About 250,000 cars were produced each day.” Mmm. No.

Subaru is my all-time favorite car company. I didn't know that its grandparent was Nakajima, who made WWII's famed Japanese Zero fighters.
Nakajima didn’t make the Zero, that was Mitsubishi. They made the KI series of planes like the KI-43 Hayabusa
In 1979 I set out to buy my first new car…a fuel efficient car.

Quite a few errors and missed models.
So far Subaru has been very solid, reliable cars for me.

So Nakajima invented the Zero fighter?

Why do you keep calling the Rabbit a _moped_ ?
It's a scooter.
Of all of the Japanese aircraft manufacturers of the 1930's and 1940's Nakajima was by far the best.
Had WW II gone on into 1946 the allied bombers would have had a very nasty surprise in the Najajima Kikka. This was the first Japanese jet aircraft. Whilst it looked an Me262 . It was in fact wholly Japanese.

To downplay the War Crimes of the Japanese in WWII is pretty Shitty. They got off much lighter than Germany because of the American occupation of Japan. Read up some on the Rape of Nanking. That statement alone colors this whole video.
USA and British had more crimes against Humanity than them on other countries against them Japan is innocent and they didn't even get punished
Only the top Germans got nabbed some of the criminals made it to command NATO!
just did an EJ engine swap... again...
Why the video is fill with lame jokes?
you talk too much
Love these cars. As a mechanic, their poorly designed engines eat head gaskets. They paid for my house and kids education. Still have a line of them at the shop waiting for parts. Thanks
What do you think about new Subaru engines and CVT?
Even though head gasket issues are for the most part a thing of the past, Subaru hater will always bring it up as an ongoing problem. Keep up on maintenance and they will last a long time. I've had two and love everything about them.
@@no1lineman We have not had head gasket issues for a better part of 10 years! And that issue was with one engine only. What is this idiot talking about?
Your take on Japanese War Criminals is astonishingly obtuse. You obviously have no knowledge of the atrocities committed by the Japanese military upon every single other Asian nation, South Pacific Islander, Asiatic Islanders,and every nation’s Prisoner’s of War! Your foolish statements and lack of research on the subject disgusts me.
yeah but this is about cars and the car company itself not about the founder and the nation.
@@sheikhshit I would agree with you except he brought up the fact that rumors of miss givings by the Japanese were untrue. If you listen to the story, this is obviously a Japanese promotional film and they don’t educate their citizens on what they did in World War II. Don’t try and educate me on something that I learned about and have studied for years. Again, they brought it up, I’m clearing it up.
Chinese commie's propaganda !!!😂 💩🖤💩🖤
What about Chinese atrocities on others and USA atrocities and British Atrocities
Yep, Ghensis Khan was a king and wise person who did not resort to murder, torture or infanticide at all, didn't slaughter all of the people in cities that he conquered either....Pol Pot was a pussy cat too, only 6 million.
Get real, no country is without their own closet killers.
0:43 When I think of Subaru, I think of lesbians.
