Purchased my first 2013 WRX off of a sketchy used car lot, a lot of people have told me how its a really bad idea but im keeping positive even through the worst first 3 weeks of owning it 😂 i didnt make it home from the dealer, radiator inlet pipe cracked, replaced with Mishimoto radiator then turbo coolant line blew two days later, (dealer paid for parts thankfully) from then cars ran great i daily it 45 miles one way to work and back to the point i really appreciate your videos on proper care and just giving light to these cars, i have a friend that owns my same WRX and hes been a great help on my future plans when money comes and i look forward to seeing more content. Ill be sure to update you on how it goes, thank you again Smeedia !

Have had a 2014 Wrx hatch in world rally blue. It has aem intake, Perrin turbo inlet, and Mishimoto throttle body hose. Running 5w40 rotella and oem rx8 oil filter. Car has been super reliable. Most reliable car I have ever owned. However. I take really really good care of it. Oil every 3k. It is pro tuned. Made 255whp and 290lb of torque. It never knocks. I fill up at the same gas station every time. Shell nitro from a gas station that moved a ton of gas. So it’s always fresh. I trust this car more than Iv trusted any of my Honda’s, Toyota’s or anything I have had. This car has been bullet proof. Just know what you are getting into. This is not a car you can do nothing to and be able to beat in it forever with no issues. You have to put in, to get something out of a wrx. No it isn’t expensive, no it isn’t cheap. You get the most amount of car in the price range. It’s good at everything, master of nothing. But you have to pay much more money to get a master of anything. So... if you have 25k to get a car. And you love having fun and tinkering with cars. Subaru wrx is you man. Buy one. Take care of it. You won’t regret it.

Also Smeedia can you do a video ' which is best ' after market brand? Do you use one brand right through ? Can you mix and match? Where not to mix and match e.g. keep the air system one brand so it can communicate better ( sound system Sony Amp with Kenwood speakers , alpine head unit ) get what I mean?
