Too many VB haters in the comments. Why can’t people just enjoy a good car without comparing man?
I guess they are just jealous, But I make videos for everyone, not just VA and STI owners.
It’s a trend to hate
its opinions lol. for me , the plastic trim and rear end really ruins it for me
I bet most of them don’t even have a license or own a car. Pretty pathetic
Because it let's them cope with their unhappy lives when they crap on someone who is happy.
I hit 13.4 PSI while carving the roads in North carolina. im loving the way this car feels
Mine spiked up to 13.4 as well having some fun in the rain. Kinda surprised me
I hit 17.7 on 91 Oct with a 200 dollar dmann ots tune 🙏 car loves it way more than stock map
Hope you guys liked the car the build is only beginning, hope to be back on with more progress!!
I bought a 2023 WRX base model about a month and a half ago now. It is a blast to drive. I'm loving every second of driving that car. I wanted a Honda Civic Type R but that was out of my price range so I ended up buying the WRX and I don't regret it one bit. I'm really happy with my WRX. I wasn't the biggest fan of the looks of the new WRX but it grew on me once I bought mine. Now, I love how they look and the car drives awesome. Honestly, it's the best purchase I've made this year. I couldn't be any happier with it.
Nice WRX
Correction kind sir, the manual version is 50/50 split. The “svt” I believe is 65/35
Oh wow didn't know that, thank you for the correction :)
subaru has never divulged the actual split of the AWD
I do think 50/50 would make sense since they label it as symmetrical AWD, or I’m just dumb ;-;
No, the cvt is 45/55. It sends slightly more to the rear, and to the other comment "symmetrical awd" refers more to the layout.
@@Fwex yes... im a sales manager at at Subaru dealership. SPT transmission, or CVT if you like, is 45/55 and the 6MT is 50/50.
My dream car to buy 🙏
You can do it bro!
@HesiDrift thank you i hope this year 🙏
Growing up I always wanted a Wrx, finally bought mine brand new last year as an early 30 something year old. Living my teenage dream and enjoying every minute of it. Put 33k miles on it already lol
Wowzers
Great drive, I don't think this car is tuned though, peak boost only 13.1. Most pro tunes are pushing 18-20 PSI, he did say a small tune though so maybe just not pushing hard at all
unless its a jb4🤔🤔
@@evoll- true that! Forgot about those
Ya seems stock boost. I am pushing 21-22 on e50. Even if its JB4 the dash gauge would show higher boost cuz ecu would think its not getting 13psi.
Yeah I am confused about this as well. My stock peak boost is 13.1. I thought a small tune would at least put it at like 15-16psi peak boost
It peaks at 13 psi stock its the same engine found in its bigger SUV lineup so it can handle the added boost for more hp and trq if you can tune it. Look at the Accent.
New Hesi drift video😍😍😍
wow im jealous of the landscape! as a former owner of a 2018 (VA) wrx making 301 hp and 315 torque im looking forward to the (VB) model.
Don't change anything keep it the way it is. Some of these young guys buy these cars and throw all kinds of aftermarket stuff in the car. they void the warranty ruin the engine and Transmisson. If they wanted a much faster car buy a faster car lol.
Boring. If you do the research and mod it right nothing is ruined. The people that buy faster cars, also mod their cars to be faster. At least their actually getting use from their mods, unlike 90% of the people that mod up their 4x4s. lol
Ngl I had a VA wrx loved it made around 310-320 who (that’s basically the max before you start messing with trans and engine) and I miss it I’m currently in the works of boosting my 9th gen si and I definitely want another car and thinking of a awd car and can’t think of anything better then the wrx for the price I could get one here a premium with 5k miles for 28k
VBs are dope! You can make great power for cheap, if you can find a leftover '23 you could probably pick up a new premium for around 28k. Good luck with the 9th gen, had one a few years ago, never did get around to boosting it though haha, should be a hoot!
@@carsnanime4719 oh definitely I was only looking at left over VBs already found a premium with 5k miles for 28 could probably haggle on that price. Yeah the 9th gen will take time but slowly and surely that’s kinda the reason why I’m looking for another car and nice awd 350whp wrx would be a fun daily
@@eduardomaldonado5793 For sure! You are just an intake and e30 tune away from that number with the VB 😜
Nice pops
🔥🔥🔥
I put Carbotech pads on my VB within first week of ownership, but i also tuned it right away on e50. 22k miles later not one problem, just lotsa smiles..
what do you need to tune on e50?
@@ghosttownbmw ethanol to blend to 50% and a tune from a competent tuner.
@@ghosttownbmw You need access to ethanol to mix for 50% roughly and then a competent tuner to give you a tune.
I hate to be a bear, but 271 at the crank in an all wheel drive car is roughly 220ish hp to the ground so I'm not really believing an axle back and a "light tune" is adding 80 crank hp lol I know the ol but dyno can be a bit missleading but seriously guys, no way.
I have a 16 focus rs with a light tune 22.5 psi on average and I'm barely scratching 305 to the wheel. Awd has a lot of driveline loss.
My vb wrx put down 253whp bone stock on a mainline dyno - most VBs put down power in that range - with an intake / turbo inlet / catback on 93 oct I'm at 320whp targeting 18-19psi
There's been proof that multiple stock VBs on dynos are putting down around 245-255whp. Multiple Dyno videos from big channels & others on the internet showing their bone stock dyno readings. All are 245-255whp. Yes, I know there is more loss with the AWD drivetrain, but it's a simple fact that a multiple stock VB WRXs are putting down around 250whp. So this means that the claimed "271hp" from factory is likely underrated for whatever reason. With the 20% AWD loss from crank, the stock VBs should be making right around 220whp. Interesting indeed that many reputable people are seeing 245whp - 255whp bone stock. This theoretically means that a typical bone stock VB is making 305-310hp at the crank.
@@allstarvbthat’s where I’m at in my 21 STI but I needed to do more so it would seem that this wrx can make more power easily
Subraru is known for under ratting their power number and they usually use close to their at wheel number
After watching tons of videos about this car and building up hype for weeks and weeks, I finally got a chance to drive one on a dealer lot and boy.... let's just say I was disappointed. For one, I really didn't like just how loud the rumble from the exhaust/engine is in the cockpit. Maybe it's just the frequency of it, but it felt like I just had a subwoofer underneath me playing nonstop. Maybe it's something I could get used too, not sure.
Aside from that though, there was a clattering noise I could hear up along the dashboard. It sounded like the hood was rattling or something but I can't be sure. Also, it's way underpowered given the premium fuel requirement and poor fuel economy. I already own a 22 Outback Wilderness and I honestly felt like the WRX was not as quick and not as peppy as the family wagon. Stopping power was also pitiful.
I guess it's fun to slam through the gears on an open road, but for a daily driver, it's too expensive and too underwhelming to be a serious contender for me. The upgraded stereo wasn't worth a damn given that I could barely hear it over the engine noise. The one I was looking at was a hair over 40k with all the upgrades and options, but that's way too much given what else you can get for the same money elsewhere.
Nice! appreciate the video man. Btw are you at stock height here?

Isn’t that gone since you tuned it?
Yeah kinda weird that he would shell out for extra warranty if he planned to mod/tune it.
I thought subarus awd was 60/40 being front wheel biased?
Subaru uses symmetrical (50/50) awd on all of their cars (minus BRZ)
Full exhaust system🔥👌👌 get aos less maintenance
This is faster then the STI, the STi did not make 300whp it was around the 270whp
It made 305 between 2015 to 2017 and 2018-2021 made 310 hp!
@@mouseclicksforu9724 that was crank HP not WHP.
I've owned a 2006 STi since 2008. They made roughly 230-240WHP on a dyno, stock. Mine is at 293/344 with a downpipe & tune.
@@hhaste around 300whp is more than enough, that’s where I want to be on mine. I think that’s a relatively safe number to be at
@@hhastemy 2021 is 320/344!
6:56 are you saying that theres a bigger turbo in the newer WRX then previous gen, and its a stock one, not a bigger one put in, I feel the wording and phrasing has confused me
So apparently in the newer gen wrx’s the turbo is actually bigger then the last gen, hence why it makes less boost then the last gen. So he is right.
@@sambo_smesh4226 oh ok I see now
@@sambo_smesh4226 thanks bro
why you comparing to an STI when theres none for that chassis
Because I own one and I know how it drives, massive difference between the two.
Damn it’s so Loud!!
The loudest on the Channel so Far!
The new 24 wrx TR fixes everything the breaks and everything not good on base wrx looking at getting a wrx TR and get Recaro seats
just a heads up, it still uses the front open diff and rear open diff with brakepad torque vectoring from the Crosstrek and Forester SUV. If it's a daily driver and not for performance track, the VB is more than enough. But at the track it's a whole different story, STI, along with the EVO and my GTR all have front limited-slip diff, center DCCD/AYC/ATESSA diff, and rear limited-slip diff.
What exhaust is making it pop like that?
It's a Remark 3.5 inch single wall axle back 💥
My 2022 WRX with the Aeroflow Dynamics axle back exhaust sounds the same and makes the same exact pops. I don't even have a tune and it pops exactly like that. The only "performance" mod I currently have is the axle back exhaust. So you can get these pops without a tune :)
Tell him to look at DBA rotors, way more affordable and tons of people seem to like them.
What tires is he running to need new ones in 6 months?
It does not handle better than sti as it does not have dual limited slip or a locking gear
have you driven both or are you just hating to hate? As someone who's owned and driven both generations the VB is better stock for stock in almost every way (excluding looks...)
@@JacobBeckmann25 Power not really but the steering is impressive for it being electronic. The STI has hydraulic steering the steering tighter and the suspension is stiffer which makes it better. The STI is better also but I can't argue that it's better for daily driving since it's a little more comfortable, the steering is very light and easy to turn.
What kind a exhaust
It's a Remark 3.5 inch single wall axle back!
Just tossing a intake on with the tune on these makes them so much more satisfying to drive and pull really hard, even with conservative tunes can hit 20 psi and get all the good noises with the intake with a good increase to how hard they pull. Bone stock i think i was pretty bored with it. Still considering leaving it eventually for a supra but they are fun for how little the cost is compared to others while having awd still.
Dual pinion steering btw, its a bit of a floaty steering the sti definitely handles better in that dept. 600 hp builds are with headstuds, you need them past like 400-450 or so. 400 tq on itll blow trans pretty quick if your hard on it
Nice car guys but fyi in Australia we dyno our cars at a much more realistic level and these new wrx models make 200-220hp at the wheels on a mainline dyno which is one of the most reliable and accurate dynos in Australia. I’ve noticed Americans / Canadians love to exaggerate numbers. STI makes 150-160kw at the wheels and completely stock VB is 145-155kw at the wheels. Also did you say that the VB handles better than a sti ? lol made me cough up my drink and then you said everyone knows it hahahaha. All reviewers of the VB have said it’s a better road car but revs to low and not as track focused as the sti. They tune better than the ej motor which is a fact but it’s not an sti sorry. Just checked my dyno graph sti 2019 vs the same tuner when he did a vb wrx and sti was 151kw stock at 16 pounds and 190kw after pro tune 16-18 pounds boost vs the vb wrx same dyno different day 146kw stock 13 pounds and 188kw after pro tune 16-18 pounds. He did mention to me the sti has tighter tolerances and stronger drivetrain ( gearbox and diffs included ) so it loses more to wheels than regular awd vehicles. www.bachmansubaru.net/blog/sti-vs-wrx/#:~:text=The%20Subaru%20STI%20is%20the,more%20powerful%20brakes%2C%20and%20more.
For me personally, the VB handles way better around the corners than my STI does, It's just a matter of personal preference. Also, this one is tuned so hence the power difference from stock.
@@HesiDrift ok I thought you said everyone knows it or something about the handling. It may handle as better road car but definitely not as a performance car.
Sorry mate, but dyno numbers are just a number at the end of the day. It is a tuning tool, and it doesnt matter what number it baselines at, its about the curve and improvements from parts.. thats what a dynamometer is for. You can say "most accurate" etc thats totally relative.. Here in the states, a typical STI dynos for around 245-255whp without any mods, that could be due to many things, but fuel is the main constraint. We also have stringent environmental factors when it comes to cars in the US. Lastly, the VB platform is very under tuned from factory but still puts down around 245-260hp without any mods.. those are similar numbers which means that subaru underrated the car. That is much closer to 300 hp at the crank (when mulitplying by 1.2 which is standard correction for parasitic loss) which is where subaru releases info about.
Now to speak to your nonsense about STI's, I have owned 3, still own my 05 sti, which is the best year we got in NA, and no, the previous generation STI's do not handle better than the VB out of the box, they under-steer more, and arent as balanced. The chassis stiffness from the VB platform makes it a much better handling car overall. As far as it being a better road car, this is also true, its just better technology all around when it comes to suspension and chassis stiffness. Where the VB loses to the STI is drivetrain. For example, the transmission, differentials and engine potential. The EJ has port injection vs the FA's direct injection (port injection being better for making big power). Other than that it comes down to chassis stiffness and suspension which as I said, has been improved with the VB. All of this info is readily available with a simple google search. The VA was better than its predecessor, but the GD is still better than the VA in terms of raw potential, is built better etc.
You should stop stating "everyone knows" when in fact many VB owners are former VA STI owners (myself included, 15ISM, and 17GPB) and the VB has a better chassis. Enjoy your 19STI, and learn to appreciate that its ok, that the VB is good, it doesnt mean your VA STI is bad.
@@juanticimo I think the reviewers doing these amateur videos need to compare it with the old wrx not the higher performance model sti as it’s not in the same league anyway. It’s great you think vb is better but that’s not what the professional reviewers say and numbers are proof themselves of performance
you're spot on gengiz, my buddies Zach and Matt from thesmokingtire were given a VB to test by Subaru themselves and took it to Willow Springs and they themselves in the video said it's almost unusable at the track. The VB also placed last and one of the worst times ever for C&D's Lightning Lap 2023. The engine is very new and nice, but many don't realize the AWD drivetrain in VB is straight from the Crosstrek and Forester using front open diff and rear open diff with brakepad torque vectoring. AWD performance cars like the STI you mention, the EVO, and my GTR all have front limited-slip diff, center active DCCD/AYC/ATESSA diff, and rear LSD for AMAZING handling at track and canyon.

It just has short gears no hate. It pulls well but after 100 it slows down a lot
Redline is about low they should let it rev more 6000 redline is family car rev limit
I'm pretty most STI owners don't buy it for straight line drag racing pulls, I don't have a STI but it seems most STI owners, like EVO owners, and my GTR, like those AWD cars because they handle amazing with front limited-slip diff, center DCCD/AYC/ATESSA diff, and rear limited-slip diffs. The VB unfortunately uses open front diff and open rear diff with brakepad torque vectoring from the Crosstrek and Forester SUV, but for many using it for daily driving it handles amazing for those duties.
Is it a cobb tune off accesport?
Yes!
@@HesiDrift I wouldn't drive on those Cobb OTS tunes for long. They aren't made for your exact car, so numbers will be off, which can blow the motor. Get a downpipe and a dyno tune.
@@HesiDriftwhere’s the AP mounted? Curious..
VB doesn’t handle better than the STi, STi has been tuned to be significantly better, in no way has the wrx been better in that aspect…I own a vb, and to have 300WHP, it would have a lot more pep and pull significantly harder, this one performs stock, making sense why the owner doesn’t tell anybody💀 it likely isn’t true. Street inspired and heavymetalwrx have shown 300 WHP, and it is significantly more rowdy. Not to mention to make 300WHP, it has to increase to more than 14 easily. I’m stock and have peaked at 14.4…13.1 is stock and looking at how boost builds on his wrx, it stays single digits. Tuned WRX’s hit double digits easily. This car likely isn’t 300WHP.
well different driving, for video poster type of driving it handles amazing for daily driving and I'm not surprised, the VB has the chassis and drivetrain straight from the Crosstrek and Forester SUV and those handle amazing for daily drivers with front open diff and rear open diff and brakepad torque vectoring. But for track and canyon and performance you are right, the STI, along with the EVO and my GTR have front limited-slip diff, center DCCD/AYC/ATESSA diff, and rear limited-slip diff for that amazing handling.
Why the hell is the owner not driving it? lol
At 400hp your pushing the limits on a stock block
Not equivalent to the growl of a V8.
Hopefully having one on the channel soon 🙂
@@HesiDrift Looking forward to it 👍
I don’t think anyone thinks a flat 4 sounds like a V8.
300whp... definitely not bud lol
i can confirm. I was also skeptical so I had a local mechanic stop by and validate. Good to go now you can continue on with your day my friend.
