The Subaru WRX STI has had a long and legendary history. When the STI sedan made a return after the somewhat controversial hatchback only model it was a satisfying car to drive and felt much more like the Subaru STI's of the past. This STI however might truly be the best setup Subaru I've ever driven. With every single suspension mod possible, built motor, FP turbo, and 450HP this car defies expectation. For today's review we also go in depth into why I believe it's time for Subaru to build an new platform with a new engine - but also why the current engine is still so beloved. Subaru's intense cult following has people dedicated to find their favorite setup , and this so far was the most different feeling Subaru I've ever had the pleasure of driving. Thanks for watching and new uploads every Tuesday,Thursday, and Saturday!

I LOVE my 2018 STI. But like a broken record, I wish it would’ve evolved more. When the STI came out in ‘04 300 HP was a big number for the price. An ‘04 mustang GT had 260hp. However, the 2020 mustang GT has 460 hp, it’s had a 200 hp bump in 16 years. The STI went from 296 to 310 In the last 16 years. I really like my car and it super fun and engaging to drive through the twisties. Love the manual trans and hydraulic steering and awesome brakes. But the STI used to be fast, and it’s not fast anymore. I have high hopes for the 2021 though.

Different purpose car. Mustang is a big V8 muscle car, while the STI is for rally, time-attack through narrow, tight roads. I agree they should notch the HP up a little but not too much.

I had a plasma blue 2011 limited subaru STI. I like the rear fenders better than my 17 limited STI. My 2011 had a factory option that i thought was unusual, DVD player, i used it once for half an hour while sitting in the garage. On Monday i almost traded in for the series white sti but turns out that one comes in base trim. So i decided to keep it and make an appointment on this monday for a new COBB exhaust. Ive had 2.5 years of SPT drone so looking forward to great sound and quieter cabin.

I actually have grown to enjoy subarus even with the problems you can have. Although I want to wait the next year or 2 and see what the next STI brings. I owned a 2015 wrx, bolt ons, on 93 and a pro tune. Holy shit it was fun, fast and reliable. The turbine and the awd is addicting. I love the new FA engine and want to see it in an sti so I think I'll be patient and wait. Plus I needed reliable practical transportation and something to carry tools so I got a truck. Sadly I dont have a fun car at the moment.

@@imdabeast100 The ''need'' is not what it's about, it's about power and consistent power. You can get a extra 10-15 hp from a intercooler change, in any form, but, if you know these cars then you know where the turbo sits. Turbos make heat and bigger ones make more heat. Taking the intercooler from under the hood and putting it in the front will almost eliminate all heat soak. Your car will be able to keep making that HP as you drive instead of losing it to the heat. That being said, I prefer the top mount, and will probably just upgrade that instead of going front mount.

I'd mod an STi. My buddy and I did wheel/tire, brake and front lower subframe brace to his 2014 WRX and he's in heaven. He bought the 2014 to replace his 2006 WRX Limited that was wrecked from behind.

I’ve seen STi’s go 50,000 miles at 400whp on stock internals. Is that crazy? Not necessarily but it goes to show it is possible if you actually take care of the car properly and don’t beat the shit out of it constantly
@MrDjvas 4 жыл бұрын
How often do you use that 400 though? I know a guy with a stage 1 iag block in a 2005 STI with a 3.5 dom turbo pushing 600WHP with e85 and to be honest hes at 67k on the current block BUT he barely uses that 600whp only when he feels like it, which is like 3 times a month. The rest of the time hes just cruising. He also does 100 miles a day too. I'm just curious because I have an 04 sti and I bought a stage 2 block from iag because I had planned at one point to push 450whp on 93 and wanted to be somewhat safe about it.

MrDjvas People chase hp numbers just for bragging rights really. You’re right, a lot of the time people rarely use their hp. Once you get to a certain level of fast, the only place you can use your car to its true potential is at a track. So unless you have a track nearby that you plan on visiting often and don’t want to risk trouble with law enforcement, funneling money into making your car faster is not really worth it.

The key is engine oil viscosity, heating up the motor properly and also constant oil changes. Ej25 is a bit like the bmw e9X m3 motor s65. Bearings need to be taken care of.

If you can only get 50 k with 400 who you've wasted ao much money. 20k bare min on any sti 06' and up plus easily 20k in mods unless you risk stock internals.

Great set-up. Nice to see someone who believes in functionality over performance. 👍 Take the 86/BRZ. It is not an underpowered car. It was designed with the power it has for a reason. Those who say it needs more power, are those who can’t push the car in stock form. Having more power doesn’t make you a better driver. Just like putting an optic on your rifle over iron sights doesn’t make you a better shooter.

There's ones out there running 400-430whp on the stock motor... but the cast pistons are a bit weak from factory, so if your tune is shit they don't hold up long. Boxer engines are sensitive to AFRs so a good tune and regular maintaince are a must if you want the stock components to last as long as possible. Most people suck with Subarus and don't know what they're doing when it comes to mods or tuning..
