Hey Brad! Would you guys be interested in doing a project with a tuned Nismo Juke?
STi vs Evo was a battle for the ages.
This new generation of “car guys” will never understand 😅 those debates would damn near turn into a brawl
Srry after having to drive both cars evo n sti (bc my friends left cars in my parking lots over summer, yello evo2003 n bug eye sti mean hwakeye, so) idrove the cars back to back.. imo it feels like sti feels agile suv, when evo feel like sportcar turn rally car, evos cornering feel more accurate in, but sti handles stable in hectic situation.. i guess subis win on liability wise but evo wins on pure driving exp.
@@lokinocmrperfaq4two175 did the sti have 15:1 steering ratio or quick steering with 13:1?
@@pauls1678 honesty tht i didnt really care for, does it make differences? I keep getting mixed up w an other blue bugeye wrx tht was also my friends car, performance of tht blue wrx wasnt worthy of speak bc i went thru big car accident, repaired right b4 it was parked for summer, n i m gettimg mixed up with experience ihad w tht wrx n sti.. if u have parking near airport, u let yo crew take advantage of tht parking lot uknow
@@lokinocmrperfaq4two175 i dont think the usdm bugeye sti's had the quick steering rack yet, if not they would have a 15:1 steering ratio compared to the 13.8:1 of the evo. means you have to steer more for taking the same turns, that could have thrown you of a bit driving them back to back but evo could also just be better in general.
i just know that it was only available in the gc8 type R and RA (maybe other special/limited models too), but they put it in the normal jdm sti's in 2003(blobeye sti) and eu/uk got it since 2005(widetrack blobeye sti) i believe. but as i said i dont know how it is in the us cars
also i never drove an evo before so i personally have no comparison in driving exp
I’m 22 and I’ve owned 2 Subarus, a 04 Impreza which was a rust bucket and I ended up blowing and now my 05 wrx. I’ve learned a lot about maintaining and working on cars because of them, I did things that I never thought I could like pulling the motor or taking out the transmission ect. There amazing cars but they are a learning experience for sure
I own a 2005 WRX (Blobeye) 267k miles. Original motor. Modded fully catless and tuned to 285whp since 80k miles. Most fun car I've ever owned. With proper care you can drive spirited and it'll keep going.
As an owner of probably one of the cleanest ‘13 Hatchbacks you’ll ever see, I solemnly swear to uphold the WRX nameplate with the respect and reverence it deserves. ✊🤙
Just turned 16 and once school is done this year it’ll be time to get my 06 wrx swap running, bought the car a few years back and rebuilt the ej253(bad head gasket) in it to pull it out without even driving it. Bought a rod knocked ej205, tore it down found out the crankshaft was bent so no grinding, put in a 207 crank and some forged rods, found some aggressive cosworth cams at a auction which fit well the 207 springs and valves I’d found. Realized I didn’t have the wiring stuff so found a 03 wrx “parts car” (was barely anything left of it) stripped it then to the scrap yard, put the fresh engine in the car alone with some sti pink injectors, eBay td05 16g, Cold air, still need to put the full exhaust i pieced together in and the massive top mount intercooler. Hopefully it’ll be a fun first car :))
You're already having fun by the sounds of it. Good for you, the reward of driving it after it's all said and done will be immense. All the best buddy
Great job on this video. 2005 wrx, please! See you next week.
I've dreamed about these cars since I was a boy and when they killed off the sti my wife said I better get one soon. So I did. 20 LPB sti. She's stock for now but not for long. I've been looking at cobbs nexgen stage 2+ and bcp500r, few other goodies and I'll be set till I build a shortblock.
I love my car but would trade it for a clean bug eye any day of the week!
I currently own a 2004 subaru WRX wagon...has 206k miles on it and all I did was give it some basic maintenance and a new timing belt and holy shit does that thing pull and handle like a DREAM! Still going crazy and setting new track times on it with an old engine...who says they aren't reliable??
The kids who beat the shit out of them and then complain when it blows up
@tynguyen7000 THANK YOU🤣 like obviously it's gonna burn some oil so keep an eye on the oil and coolant levels...even a freaking HONDA Civic would blow a head gasket if you ran it low on coolant 🤣
2021 wrx 310hp at 312 torque on 93
371hp at 349 torque corn fed 🌽 🤤
ON A STOCK JPIPE DMANN TUNING 🔥🔥🔥smiles per gallon
I’m sitting 290+ with cat back intake AoS and tune. 2021
Absolutely love the GC8 and brought a STI Type RA V Limited back from Japan with me.
I owned a '98 JDM STi. These cars of the last 10 or so years are nothing like the rally legends of years gone - other than having about the same power output, a flat engine, bottom end shenanigans and a nightmare to do spark plugs on. However, there was no infotainment, crazy amount of electronics or the bloat that comes with all of that.
amazing
The mental side of the job is a big one, after closing All of your doors at loadout and sitting down in your seat fastening your seatbelt your just hoping your day will be bearable at the least... 4 1/2 months in and i completely agreed with everything said.
Everybody at my DSP agreed that with all of the labor and hardship to deal with, we should be getting paid at the minimum $24-25 an hour. Many of us only work 4 days due to the fact that the job itself is already very labor-intensive Forcing you to give your body a break. Im sure many can relate to this, all in all if the pay was better 70% of The people who have quitted would have "never" quit in the first place.
thing that astounds me is how did their 97 wrx go from 0-60 faster than todays wrx
I love the new WRX despite everyone thinking it's ugly
Blowing head gasket aside, i still think that the rumble of that boxer engine is the best sounding 4 cylinder I've ever heard
Only on non turbos imprezas bud!!! Not wrx’s.
@@jeffbeerkens5286 non turbo? Obviously I'm talking about the wrx even the sti here.
@@jeffbeerkens5286 It's basically a tradition for a Subaru head gasket to blow at least once. Had it happen to me.
@@ronanvelarde8072 my 08 wrx has 350,000kms before swap no head gasket issues. Oil/lubricant problems as age if taken care of properly
Got 180,000kms on this motor now and still original heads ive done cylinder 4 cooling mod and aos so far doing just fantastic!!👌🏼
@@jeffbeerkens5286 wow that's impressive. But what i said is a common stereotype amongst Subaru impreza owners like you know like the vape thing so don't take it seriously.
I've always wanted an sti hatchback (or even a wrx hatch) but when it was time to finally buy my first NEW car, the best I could do is my 2014 impreza premium hatch which i've loved... but it does NOT have any get up and go, and the reasonable "turbo kit" for a non-turbo impreza is basically a trade-in for a wrx (it's just not worth trying to install forced induction where it wasn't already)... what I REALLY want though, is for the levorg to come to the US... specifically the Levorg 2.0 STI Sport AWD which is REALLY similar to my impreza hatch, but with significantly upgraded suspension, transmission, forced induction, functional hood scoop, and can make sense both on the street, at a rally, and doing grand touring.
I got 16 wrx still wanting a 05 Sti. Blobeye is my dream subie
22+ is called the Sharpeye
💯
Just had a drive in my BRZ with a friend of mine who owns a bright Yellow Evo 8 .
That thing in the rear view mirrorr is quite an intimidating sight .. Evo / STI you are dearly missed :(
I am surprised the SVX didn't get a rally version upgrade.
simple, that car was very heavy compared to the other subarus
I got a purely sexy 07 wrx sti that I’m never selling just drive it on the weekends. It’s still a fantastic car.
🤘🏾
I have 2000 WRX STI type RA version 6 from Japan. I'm taking it to America in the future
The 2015 WRX is my dream Subie 😎 from video games to real life
I have a 2020 wrx and a 2005 sti and prefer my blob eye all day
The only thing the new wrx has going for it is three bolt ons get you to 400 wheel hp. Got to love the Honda civic tail lights
The VA wrx got a new engine actually. The FA20. Wasn’t just a twin scroll turbo added lol
If the new wrx had come with the sti 6 speed i would have been interested in it but it has the regular wrx 6 speed from the va models i could have grown on the fa24 especially when they started coming out with uel headers but that wrx 6 speed was a turn away for the time being ill keep my 18 sti
While I do miss my '06 impreza.. my GR Corolla has done a good job filling that void for me😅
If the Blobeye was a sophomore, is the current gen a Super-Senior?
I currently own a 2000 2.5rs coupe
Long live my bugeye ej207 and 6-spd. 🤗
I always thought Subaru was a Swedish company.
When I was a kid I thought they were Australian so you’re not alone lol
Damn i wish i could post pics of the titanium pearl 2003 legacy GT wagon i bought brand new. You guys probably saw me driving it around town if you were there at that point. I turned it into an STI mechanically, and owned it until 2019 when i sold it to a kid who I believe still owns it and is still ripping around town in it. I've seen him out n about a couple times in it.
It has a matte black hood from a baja turbo that fits seamlessly.
Subaru has made one of the best sounding 4 cylinders
agree
i hope the people make a move to not let subaru to make the sti ev becasue uh boxer engine> electric motor
edit: vb sti's do exist but only in japan right now :/
Really hope both companies get back into WRC but seems to be wishful thinking. The ‘do it all’ cars are great and we need more options in this segment. Especially with V8’s being phased out
Tbh - I kinda don’t hope Subaru gets back into WRC. I know so many folks want Subaru to lean back into its roots and start making true (or more true, anyway) sports cars again, but imho the “practical daily x sporty rallycross weekend car” market that they’re doing their best to corner is really their true forte. As someone who drives and works on a WRX - as tempted as I am to go full sports/race car with it, I just can’t let go of the excellent practicality that I would have to sacrifice to do so.
Rather have the Evo.. more rare. More power and reliability 😊
I miss the days of the “pocket rockets”
how about talking about the death of the evo!!!
It's turbos and BLOWN ENGINES everywhere lmao
you forgot f&f and ken block sti
Yo
You forgot to name their eyes lol
It's just a sad time seeing all the fun sporty cars going electric or being killed off entirely. We need more cheap fun small ice cars.
its so depressing almost every car company is becoming lame.
Evo always quicker stock for stock
The machine that brought the evo back to the drawing board again and again?? Jaja yeah right…lol!
No boxer rumble electric STI.. I don't care if it has 1000 HP.. No Thanks!
we better uh do something to force subaru to not do electric we cant let it happen
auto sti
The Americanisation of the STI and the evo ruined them
I was kinda liking your channel...until that snarky comment about Colin McRae. Unsubscribed.
holy shit
you are too animated
lol
had to click off
Electric sti... what a shame..
you channel is so dead
Not a subi they trash
