- I wanted to make this video for a while, but I wanted to make sure everything I have been experiencing was part of this car & not a fluke. I did some trial & error over the years & found the car is in fact annoying.

5 things I Hate about my 700whp subaru
1. Its not 900whp
2.

😂😂
Just connect to bt while you let it warm up or buy one of those aux cord bt connectors. They make special head gaskets for high boost cars with cooper rings around the cylinder walls so you won’t have to keep replacing them if you use one meant for that amount of boost. 700hp Sti’s don’t need six puck clutches. Mines getting built now to make 600hp on a stage 1 twin sprung organic x clutch that’ll feel “like butter” quoted from my tuner and it’s rated for 800hp. My exhaust doesn’t have any cats and it’s a full 3 inch hks hi power exhaust and it’s not obnoxiously loud, the sound is perfect- you can talk without speaking loudly on the highway yet makes a great sound when you get into it. Also my exhaust doesn’t sound as raspy as yours I’m not sure if you have equal length headers or if it’s just because it sounds completely straight piped but it just doesn’t have the quality sound I’m used to hearing. Resonator could fix that but if it’s the equal length headers they really don’t really make a difference. Don’t believe me watch every single episode of engine masters and I’d bet if you swapped to aftermarket unequal length headers it’d make the same hp within 1-2 numbers. Speaker upgrades are the easiest thing you can do to a car but most of the time you want a good aftermarket radio to go with it in order to get the maximum benefits from those new speakers. Not trying to hate just throw out some ideas as to how you could easily fix the things you hate about your subi. My most annoying thing on my sti(2004) is the sound the seatbelt makes when you put it on lol it’s an easy fix but I’m just too lazy and it adds a bit of character so I don’t hate it so much anymore. I just laugh when people put the seatbelt on and give me a funny look.
Hey Shane! I just bought at wrx hatch aswell and you have to use the voice commands to link your bluetooth permanently. Mine starts playing music immediately when I turn my wrx on from my phone. TH-cam it! It takes a couple mins to do
Da fuq... For real!! All this time. I mean if you do it manually technically it should work as well no?...
@@SuBros760 nope you have to do it with voice commands one time and then itll automatically work forever without you doing a thing just turning on your car
@@SuBros760 yep, he's right. Did the same thing (after browsing the NASIOC forums) and it works like a charm. Get in my car and bluetooth connects after 3-4 seconds.
I can say the same the day I bought the car... it was weird using my voice to link it up lol
Thanks dudes
Your Bluetooth will automatically connect if you use voice commands and you shouldn’t have any problems after. Also you can make your speakers play better by
1. Turn key to acc (or have car on)
2. Press power button for radio to off
3. Hold button 1 and either 2 for sedan, 3 for wagon, or 4 for through mode then press the tune button in.
This changes the speakers tone for your vehicle.
You should be in wagon mode. Also for sedans like mine, wagon mode sounds a lot better.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this before, couldn’t read all comments during my 15min break.
They did, but thank you!
Wait, like use voice commands to connect the Bluetooth when you first get in? But you still have to manually connect it every start yea?
@@TheMXinsidE No, if you use the voice commands it is storing the phone as a "paired device" vs an "audio device." The former will have the phone connect automatically every time you get in and start the car. This is a relatively known thing that is stupid about this HU.
I saw a 700 hp Subaru stay together for 30 min before the block cracked in half....
That's a good record too
@@SuBros760 lol
For 15 years all I had was subarus and As much as I enjoyed my 450 whp 2002 wrx and then a 370whp 2017 sti, I had to abort ship and get a GTR, Best move I ever did too, now im making 660whp with just bolt ons e85 and the car drives like a dream, my exhaust is only loud while on boost and the stereo is amazing, I don't have to deal with the extreme HD 6 Puck clutch in traffic, or get locked out of 3rd gear, rattles are still there but not as much as a Subaru and handling is actually better than a 2015+ sti, plus the acceleration is brutal with the DCT transmission, and I don't have to check my oil after every damn pull lol, I don't have many vids but you can check my channel
Bro , will the stock sto suspension/ drivetrain hold up ok while doing a 1/4 track launch at 500 whp power level ? Or will things break Please respond thanks!
Here's how to improve stereo sound:
This method will allow you to set your head unit to 3 different modes: sedan, wagon, through mode. The last mode, "through mode" is the one we want. This mode will increase bass levels and overall sound levels by a very noticeable amount.
First turn your car on. While your car is on push your head units volume control dial to turn the radio off.
Next your going to use the numbered quick select buttons on your head unit to access the different modes.
With your radio turned off the first mode (sedan) is activated by holding down the 1 and 2 buttons and pressing the tune dial twice ( like a double click on a computer ). "Sedan" should then appear on your headunits screen. The last step is to turn on you radio again by pressing the volume control dial.
To access the other modes use the same format described above but with the following button combinations:
Sedan mode: hold 1 and 2
Wagon mode: hold 1 and 3
Through mode: hold 1 and 4 (The good one)
Loudness can also be toggled by holding 1 and 6
Hope this helps.
Thank you! I did this in my old wrx, but forgot about it & can't hear it anymore now😁
@@SuBros760 also in my wrx hatch it helped me to set CS Auto on😄 much better
STI goals man , maybe not 700hp but would love to get to about 500hp and I’ll be super happy 😁😂
Facts mannnn

Alex Ortega sti or Wrx?
@@Its_Rod 2005 STI bro.
Don't know if it was already posted but if you connect your phone via the handsfree system on the steering wheel instead of radio it will automatically connect to your phone automatically verytime you turn the car on!
Yes but thank you
THAT BLUETOOTH IS SHEER BOOTY
😂😂
F the 5 things you HATE bud. You got 700hp that's Awesome...👌😎
and you have an STI, most of us would kill for this car. First World Problems smh lol
i have a 16 wrx and I can confirm that the stock speakers leave a lot to be desired.
Change the stereo man!!! Such a build with so much money spent on it it deserves a good stereo like a pionner 2din or something
pair phone through voice command. makes it auto connect.
this works!
ofcourse it does.
I have a 2012 sti and my Bluetooth works like a charm... sometimes it might take a little longer to connect or I have to turn on and off the setting on my phone but apart from that it always connects with no issue and start playing my music
Hmmm
I have the unlimited trim but I don’t think that changes anything in the Bluetooth
@@carlosamador2454 unlimited working sessions
The rattling in some places is because the vibration of your exhaust system resonates through your whole car, which in turn will vibrate some things loose. Plus it's a cheap interior.
I go with cheap 😁
@@SuBros760 me too. I have the lower end 2013 Outback. It's not bone stock. But doesn't exactly have bells and whistles. Your not alone. Lol
You spend thousands and thousands of dollars to build the car, but aren't willing to spend another couple hundred to have a head unit that doesn't annoy you.
It doesn't annoy me, it's just a POS. I can't year it anyway
Bro , will the stock suspension/ drivetrain hold up ok while doing a 1/4 track launch at that 500 whp power level ? Or will things break Please respond thanks!
I own a 2019 WRX and I can confirm that the Bluetooth/Speaker setup on the base models are just as bad as the previous Years.
Mine seem to be fine
random noises! lmaooo i got a 2011 hatch myself and wtf i swear its got little trinkets hidden
😂😂
The squeak is is just the springs inside the seat, they are just a little old so they will make that squeak that you heard.
Mmm, I don't think that's a spring
that squeak in the seat happens to me to it’s so annoying
Isn't it!
I heard if you use rotella it will stop the seat creak.
😂
If your having issues pairing your phone try using the steering wheel audio pair first the voice activation pairing tool is what is recommended by Subaru -certified subie tech
Thx
The glove box rattle is common. Only way to fix is by retightening the screws. It will loosen up in the future though.
It might be something worse 😁
The turbo models generally don't have problems with head gaskets
@shayne The seat can be fixed by trimming back that plastic trim piece, it wraps around the front of the seat and rubs the leather and makes the noise. Best free "mod" I've done.
The radio sucks mainly because of the road noise level in my 2010 STI approaches that of a convertible.
That is until the exhaust and intake and mods, then I just can’t fucking hear road noise or the radio anymore.
😂😂 exactly
how do you have a fully built car and still factory radio? There are aftermarket replacements that cost less then $300 that you can install yourself that make the sound 100x better and bluetooth that works seamlessly.
Because I can't hear it
Huh, seems much quieter with the windows up, crazy how that works
Matthew Pepper isn’t quieter to the people not in the car. Annoying as hell if you’re somebody who is active on the road at night like I am
Smiteful Ares I don’t think he is very concerned about anybody else around him let alone night patrons like yourself. It seems the whole point of the vid is things HE doesn’t like, not what OTHERS don’t like about his car.
My point was if he doesn’t like how loud it sounds to him, if he put his windows up it seems much quieter for him
The seat creak is from the leather and the plastic side cap coming in contact. Try pulling the plastic cap away from the seat slightly, after doing that a few times mine eventually stopped.
Okay. Thanks
do you have anything done to the driveline? Axles, Drive Shaft, built trans?
Bro , will the stock suspension/ drivetrain hold up ok while doing a 1/4 track launch at 450-475 whp power level ? Or will things break Please respond thanks!
With your clutch, look into a mantic clutch of some sort, they'll have something that will handle the power and still be very drivable
To late now, I'm in it to win it
bluetooth does the same in 2015 sti as well
Uh oh
Blue tooth is a pain in the ass for any car. I have a 2015 jeep that doesn't connect sometimes.
It's more annoying that you can't throw it
The world misses you shayne wya
Sup
I love how loud my subie is, my neighbors dont but surprised thats something a Subaru owner dislikes. Cold starts are my favorite XD
@Shayne
Try cleaning the leather of your seat with a leather cleaning/protecting product and rub inbetween the plastic. It will last a few weeks for sure. That's what i do with my 2013 STI.
Good idea. I use to moisture em up, but been super lazy with it
Bro... Where's the content at... 8months 😩😢

How usuable is your 700bhp on the road? Do you find it under steering under that much power? I'm from the UK and have a late model 320bhp bh5 Legacy. On our narrow twisty roads I feel like anything more than 400-450bhp would be wasted. Wondering whether I should go for more power, but then again I do like the twin turbos
I don't think anybody uses 700hp through a corner. This car is 100% drivable on the street or track.
Bro , will the stock suspension/ drivetrain hold up ok while doing a 1/4 track launch at that power level ? Or will things break Please respond thanks!
Bluetooth works on my 2011 STI all the time. I used the voice thing to set it up once
So I hear 😁. Some people are saying it doesn't work very well. IDK anymore.
Connect the Bluetooth via the steering wheel controls. It will auto connect every time after connecting using the steering wheel controls.
Shook!
Meant to add using the voice controls via the steering wheel controls but I see someone else already mentioned it as well.
Yeah you have to use the voice commands on the steering wheel. It's fairly simple and it will connect automatically.
Hey man I had the same problem with my Bluetooth and I got it fixed, let me know if you’re still having problems with it. Use your voice command center and delete all phones previously connected to it then connect your phone. After I did that it connects everytime I turn the car on automatically
Thanks man!
You can improve the stock speakers but changing the head unit to "through-mode". Look it up and im sure you'll notice an improvement
Did & don't notice much
@@SuBros760 Ahh thats a shame, I noticed it a lot with my hatch. Still, who needs a stereo when all you can hear is the exhaust anyway
nobody listen to radio whenever they drive sti,
they listen to the heart of the car
We’re u at bro no content
i know i know
The clutch and exhaust are all you bro. You bought em knowing damn well the results. Built my car too and could drive that thing daily
I changed all kinds of stuff to make it quieter, nothing helps. I have one last trick.
radio might be trash bc sti’s come with the radio and shit back in the day. because its a ‘ race car ‘
Just scrap it, problems & hatred solved
Edit: also people buy a rex not because of audio or sound system. The boxer nodes is music to ears.
🤸
I agree the stereos in the subies suck!!!! I have a 08 impreza and 13 wrx and both are terrible. The wrx was so bad I replaced the head unit with a jvc and problem solved.
I like oem audio, they make good stuff for the stock unit
heard alot of great things about comp twin disk and alot of people daily drive them
Yup, puck suck for street use period.
I just decided to come check the channel out after not seeing a video in awhile cus I thought I missed uploads, but I guess not. Lol hope everything is good and hope some videos are coming soon. Like the resonator install video mentioned 😂😅
Literally just did that right now man :/ hope he’s okay
right just did the same, hope we hear something soon.
Sup
Wheres the videos man? You have my fav sti on TH-cam lol
Yeah was thinking that to. I loved his content.
Bass and everything is fine on mine, you can adjust it too.
Doo doo
Why no videos lately bud? It’s been like 10 months since your last video?
He’s got his car posted for sale on FB marketplace
Michael Chung so sad. I understand though probably family stuff? Bye bye race car :(
Michael Chung where
Stalker🥴
Feelers bro
Man spent so much money on building the car but doesn’t upgrade the speakers or infotainment.
Edit: basically no interior mods to make things a little better
Can't hear it anyway. Fact was, the system is garbage
I got a 2016 sti and the audio is still complete garbage. Sounds like two bluetooth speakers taped to each door. The touchscreen is unresponsive when u turn the car for the first time. The audio also cuts out for a few secs and then comes back. The spoiler also creaks alot. And DCC modes sometimes dont work unless u switch it back and forth until it works. With ac on i feel the car studder under acceleration like its trying to go faster but barely.
Welcome
I have a 15 wrx and has the same radio i have the galaxy s9+ and the bluetooth used to give me issues at 1st but since updates from samsung it works great now. Someone at subaru said with how fast phones come out they cant keep up with the software for the radios.
I have the same clutch in my STI. It's constantly making me look stupid.
I've you think you've leaving it. You didn't.
2015 and up radios still suck. Still rocking sh*t speakers too.
I agree with a lot of this. I can’t stand the squeaky plastic trim in the car. So damn annoying.
It's like a cheap Lego car
I have a 14 Forester and never have issues with it pairing with my phone.
Lucky you
Put a diffuser on the exhaust I bought mine with it on Idk how tf it works but all I gotta do is flip a switch and it goes quiet
MRT performance bruh, daily quiet 800+whp all day long and until you really get on it sounds legit stock. Twin disc and drive. Cheap ass, change the radio. The squeak in the seat is your balls I hear from another comment here. Oh and head gaskets, boost creep is a thing when not controlled properly. Nice car man enjoy
Your back!
Been... Ish.
Don’t buy the car with the standard stereo then, I had the Nav/entertainment center in mine and it was fantastic. Also I custom ordered mine from factory, waited almost 5 months for delivery and only had it for 18 months cuz it turned into a rattle box. I got a Mercedes AMG CLA 45 and then onto my new AMG C43 tuned with over 550tq to the wheels
Rattle box. That's a good one
Get a exhaust cut out. Press of a button and your quiet.
More money than I want to spend. I have one last plan coming
The firewall spot welds holding the clutch pedal on 08-14 models are known to break and result in creak/popping sounds and eventually cant get the clutch working (forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2700583) I thought that would be your point when you mentioned the clutch. And yeah i've had it happen and its just shitty design
Pair your phone through the voice recognition button on the steering wheel, it will auto connect after.
I don't have any problems with my stereo with my V7 Sti
Running a Stage 2+ in my 2014 STi, and honestly can relate to the clutch problems, traffic is a major pain especially after heavy leg gyms, gotta plan ahead and that adds an array of complications. Oh yea, and it eats fuel :) Cannot say hate tho, more like *no not recommend as daily*
My 13 Subaru made that exact seat noise 😂😂 hahaha fucking hated it, made that noise every time I shift
Oh gosh, I could imagine the self triggered moments. 😁
I have a 2011 rs hatch (first car btw) the best way to make speakers better is hold down 1 and 6 and it turns on bass mode, just TH-cam how to make subaru 2011 speaker's better
I did that, no difference for me
we miss you
Hey
#1 blown head gasket! :D
Yes sir
I have a 2012 wrx and I havnt had that trouble with blue tooth it always connects
You must have set it up correctly
Haha idk or just good luck with that but not with my CEL. It keeps coming on saying I have all 4 cylinder misfire but doesnt idle or run rough. I've done spark plugs coil packs engine harness,so subarus just have there own corks
2015 has same bluetooth and speaker issues!
If you have a 700hp car... Certainly over 7k in mods... You complain about the stock sound system? Are you kidding? Spend 300 more and take an hour to change it yourself, gosh.
Shayno even the 2015 wrx has shyte bluetooth connection
Personally, I drive a WRX. 90% of the stuff you "hate" is because of what you did to it. Personally what you did, and what you "hate" is fine for me. Not trying to throw shade at all, but you could've easily not done what you did and you'd love it.
That is correct, as I stated. No shade taken lol. Sometimes content is to be created & not necessarily hated. If you know what I mean 😉
@@SuBros760 Oh yeah brother! I get it, content is always great! Lovin' your STi build you've got goin' on! As expected, not every car is going to fit everyone's needs and wants, and that's why there are so many different types. But, obviously you've done something right to be able to put that much money into a single car, so keep up the good work man!
Can you make a video about fa20fit vs the Ej since you now own both . Trying to figure out if I want to stage 2 my 18 Wrx or get an Sti
Get an sti. Save your money
or wait for next gen sti with 2.4?
Sick video, love your Subaru
👍
Your car doesn’t have shitty stupid watergate flutter like 99% of Subarus with aftermarket turbos. What set up is this?
I only drink Watergate at home. I have a bov. Some people feel it isn't necessary, hence the Cho Cho cho choo sound. Bad for the turbs
The radio thing is annoying af, my girlfriends forester does the same...
Sucks. Apparently the voice controls work
My dude you in my town lol cruzing down Melrose 😂hell ya
Suh
The majority of these issues have nothing to do with being 700hp
Well shit
Shayne Still love your whip bro, keep up the content. I’ll be tracking mine as soon as this clutch is worn in!
Bro , will the stock suspension/ drivetrain hold up ok while doing a 1/4 track launch at the 500 whp power level ? Or will things break Please respond thanks!
Omg car is rn being built for around 600 but I absolutely can't believe your car is that loud with a q300. I have muffler deletes on rn and was thinking about the r400 but this is making me think I'll need more. I have a 15+ though so they tend to be quieter on the inside for whatever reason but that doesnt mean fuck all if outside its alerting cops for miles.
Check out Billetworkz climate control knobs, pricey but they look killer! And I essentially have your twin just slower 😂
You said it resonators are key to keeping noise down I run 3 on my wrx with 3 in exhaust and I don't wake the Neighbors
Thought invidia q300 was supposed to be one of the quieter exhausts😂 mines not quiet either but definitely not near as loud as yours
Has a lot more to do with it, but ya, it sounds like an spt normally
I want a sti wrx but all I’ve heard is stories about serious repairs needed if you raise boost, when I’m rich I’ll get one tho!
That's a great plan. They handle nice at any level though
You need to set the audio to through mode, it'll improve the sound. also getting a new head unit helps a lot too.
th-cam.com/video/X3wD-jHTN0E/w-d-xo.html
There's a video that shows you how to do it. thank me later.
Thx
My 13 Wrx hatch has so many rattles lol
I don't think it's your seat I bet it's your foot pedal rester next to the clutch that's doing the squeaking
I'm pretty sure it's my seat 😂
Where did you get the gauge pods, not the gauges themselves but the pod?
From the previous owner 😉
Odd the first thing you hate about your 700hp subie is the exact thing I hate about my stock hp subie lol
Keeping it real. Nobody shows this stuff about their cars
Hey shayne haven’t seen anymore vids lately what’s going on with your subie I have been following since day 1 ...
What do you want me to film? You don't watch for me so makes it hard😉
I watch for that subie bud ... what’s been up with it lately haven’t seen any vids of it in months ... How’s it running ?
SONY XAV-AX100 SOLUTION. but you dont need music when you have loud muffler lol
Facts
Speakers and bluetooth didnt get any better with the 2015+ WRX/STI. IDK about the '19 but my 18 WRX stereo is TRASH
Dang, for real... My 19's is spot on and has that Android auto shit.
Shayne Yeah my 2018 premium has zero bass. Had to upgrade to the kicker package. Currently looking at upgrading the underpowered OEM headunit and adding a sub
