Introducing a new project Subaru WRX, and how we got it working again with a Cobb Accessport tune from Drive Auto Sports in Woodinville, Washington.

Buying a project car from someone else is not without its fair share of pitfalls. Case in point: how do you tune an engine when you don't know what has been done to it?

If you had a 2004 WRX "just sitting around" which modifications would you do it?

@Little.R 5 жыл бұрын

TEIN coilovers, Cobb stage 2, Cobb Downpipe, 17x9's with some MEATY tires and call it a day. Good DD + Autox setup.

First. I loved my '04 WRX more than '14 WRX hatch I had. Good luck with the built, and the automatic makes it interesting and unique.

thats me right i have a 14 wrx hatch and i love it alot but i also have a 2003 wrx sedan and i love that more than my hatch its crazy

I believe you have a wrx premium because of the sunroof option. Kudos

Transmission cooler, needed when you start upping the power. Proper trans flush as well. Upgraded top mount and efr 6258 twin scroll. Check crank pulley to make sure they didn't put a lightweight aluminum one on and consequently lost the harmonic balancer.

If money is no object, I would do away with the 4eat and replace it with a jdm(If USDM is not readily avail. $$ wise) 6sp along with supporting mods(ie.. 180 Rear Diff., etc..), THEN retune, to recalibrate those lost ponies. Which in turn nets you a very usable awd system. I too, purchased an '04 new in late '03 and loved every minute of it.

Ryan, Do you have an update to this video? I am looking forward to seeing what else you have in store for this daily driver.

Great report. First time be ever seen a tuneup like this. Amazing technology. Sure looks like fun.

Man, you really should have done a maintenance round on the car before having them tune it. Spark Plugs should have been one of the first things you do so they don’t have to worry about it on the dyno.

Take all the pink sti logos off the outside and its a pretty cool car 👍

Yea your right who breaks in a car to take the stereo haha. Maybe he was going to take the car saw it was a automatic and took the radio instead 😂😂

How much does a dyno tune cost?

@octurbojoe 5 жыл бұрын

Seam weld and stiffen the chassis, upgrade the bushings and suspension. Totally opposite of what everyone does.

@JesterialInsanity 5 жыл бұрын

OCTurboJoe Seam welding seems a bit overkill on an Automatic daily driven WRX but Ok 😂 Bushings and Suspension overhaul though on that 14 year old chassis though is a smart and relatively inexpensive move.

@octurbojoe 5 жыл бұрын

@@JesterialInsanityOlder cars are flimsy, the GC is even worse. Your upgraded suspension and bushings aren't worth a damn if the chassis is still flexing. On the other hand, you can always swap out the 4EAT drivetrain for a 6MT.

Jesus did Ray Charles use a rotary buffer on that thing? You need a good detailer.

Tuning a Subaru and then automatic swapping it and deleting the wing is absolutely blasphemous. How can you even say that driving manual in traffic is too hard, whoever thinks that shouldn’t be allowed this car

@GDB_ZERO 4 жыл бұрын

Holy shit he said so many “parts” on that “list of mods” wrong or they don’t exist lol. Sorry but how do you have any background in Subaru’s lol. Half your age and I know plenty more.
