Im sure, that this STI will look like brand new with your care. Good job, keep up.

Daaaaaamn bro that bonnet to the head must’ve hurt badly ! Thanx for all the content and continuous uploads, as a automotive youtuber myself I know it’s not easy in these times we facing but you’re doing great 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

So if I want my STI to have “sickspeed” I need to put 10 qts of oil in it?! I’ve learned so much on this channel🤓 Love from Maui bro, glad you and yours are safe. sorry bout your noggin🤙

That hurt really really bad... *Devin's Reaction: Awwe* Be careful always Brotherrr ...

YOOOO let me say this from experience. You see that those pulleys have gunk on them and the belt is showing wear? That will eventually wear a hole threw the belt and could cause a massive failure. The pulleys need to be spotless before being installed against the belt, which should also be clean from gunk.

I recently bought a 2011 black STi with mods... poorly treated by previous owners. The paint has a ton of swirls (love hate relationship with black paint) had to get a whole new timing belt kit and ac belt cause the previous owner put it on wrong and it slashed the middle of my timing belt. Lucky It didn’t snap. He had wheel spacers with some rep wheels. Fenders were hanging cause the wheels poked passed them so every bump I hit it would get worse. He had no splash guards so I had rocks in the engine bay and in my intake filter. COBB filter mashed up against the frame so it was crushed. Bought the splash guards, new filter, and got some properly fitting RPF1s with no spacers! A lot of money put into the subi but it’s a dream car of mine! I love your channel and your positivity. Now all I need is a dyno tune and get the car running healthy! Already have the accessport ready to be married

I think I still have my hood prop from my sti in my garage. You can have it if you still need it.

I'm learning a lot with this STI. Since I have a 2019 STI and I won't be changing my water pump anytime soon so this video series is very informative for me to learn what is needed to be removed to change one.

I’m so happy to see this poor STI getting some love! Everyone wrecks this things with gross interior bits, rep wheels, and poor maintenance.

I barely found this channel about a week ago and I thought these videos were over a year old. Dude, you got this car fixed up in a month? Beast! Most youtubers take 2 years to get a car looking even close.

That lock up on the DCCD/blinking light and cruise light is the Clock spring/steering angle sensor. Had those two mofos go bad and the Diff was binding and locking up like a mofo. Replaced them and it fixed everything. A shop told me it was my trans....what a bunch of bs since i knew what the issue was.

Glad you’re okay man, that’s crazy, could’ve been worse ! Stay safe bro ! Keep them bad ass videos coming ! God bless 🙏🏻

LOL 😂 Bobbi is killin me... "Wow, can I have it?" Loved your old hawk eye 💯🔥 Can't wait to see this one 👊🏻

This guy does good work. I have a 2013 WRX hatchback that bought brand new in 2012. I know squat about cars and I learned where the water pump is located. Haha. Nice.

Geez are you ok man I felt that hit. Appreciate all your hard work in your content.

you need to see if AMS oil comes in a barrel!

I think it's really cool that you're cleaning up this sti and reverting it back to stock in a couple ways. It's kind of my dream to do this and keep an STi forever, keep it up man.

Man your skill is essential to society, Good Job Bro!

Easy fix for the limp mode! It’s your speed sensor. Located under the TMIC right on top of the transmission. Swap that out and it will run great and your speedometer will work again. Had this issue on multiple STI’s. Car doesn’t know how fast it’s moving and throws itself into limp mode.

Why is it every car you buy has a cracked windshield 😂😂

Sick bro! I got a 04 subaru in February as my first car and there are bearly any youtubers that post them fixing their subies other than ThirdShift and you , good job!

Devin with the quickest turn around time with the repair

I still get blown away of how much of a beast you are

Stoked to see what you do with it, always killing it man!

Sorry about your head. You are doing great with your trouble shooting and build so far.

A radiator style oil cooler is nice to have but if you're gonna delete the oem oil cooler you should tap the coolant neck and thread a pipe plug into it instead of the rubber cap. Assuming it's not just something you can remove entirely and make a block off plate for

You need to get your self a cooling system pressure tool. You apply pressure to a cooling system and it forces the leak. It's a handy tool to have.

Bobbi does the best detailing of an interior!

Dude that look hurt and you just keep going mad props for that

Had that same steering wheel in my drift missle e30... Its def diffrent seeing that style NRG wood grain wheel in a STI. Keep killing it brother, love all your builds..like ive said before if you are ever trying to sell an Evo id love to pick one up from you to add to the fleet...take it easy guys..

I could imagine the pain you went through from that lash. Hope you alright

Hope you feel better! I love all your content and your passions for cars! Keep it up!

Solid work brotha! Hope the noggins doing alright!

LMFAO @ the edit with the head bonk... Keep up the good work bro

Can't believe I saw you at Spaldings 2 days ago. Keep up the good work Devin.

Devin had to be cussing 🤬 when the hood fell lol

That hurts, you gotta be careful bro.

That cut would be a talking point with bobbie later. Be safe man!

That sounded hard Get it checked out man

Thanks for the videos mate. I have left it late to start learning about cars, but after watching your videos I have picked up so much.

New to the channel loving the builds very detailed 👍

hood to the head, maybe an ice cold beer? and then back to work?! i like it

devin that was LEGITNESS...

I personally wouldn’t attempt to paint black , as it is the hardest colour to get right.

Gotta feel for the old owner who thought it was blown up

I just put a short block in my 11 sti...the hood fell and cracked my head 3 different times in 3 different locations...Maybe next time I'll properly secure it..probably not. Nice vid

wow hope you are ok devin ,love all your videos keep going mate

How about go the place where you got the jdm clip...maybe they have seats as well. Second the sti top mount looks worn needs a cx racing top mount to freshin up the engine bay...keep up the good work

All I have to say is, Dude, you are a Frickin Machine! ☮️

Ouch bro, but you took it like a champ 👍😁

It needs a new steering wheel

Get the Grimmspeed hood struts! Great upgrade!

The title of the video had me thinking it was an emotional type of hurt as in something wrong w the car lmao

Keep up the good work from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

You show how easily you can do most of the dreaded expensive major service on Subarus when the timing belt and kit with tensioner and idlers get changed . Many don't take that opportunity to do the water pump which you show is easy when you get that deep into it. I was wondering if Bobbi would be called in for one of her trade mark mega deed interior cleans ha ha ha Doing great and you know those rims have to be gold or red lol

Be careful men, good job, keep great content👌🏽👌🏽

That's hurt.. oucchhhh.. Nice work on car, solid. Piece by piece. Putting all the issues in orden, thqt would be a nice proyect. Poor guy the previous owner. Little problems, big issues.

Bro that hood came out of nowhere .. wasn’t expecting that

God damn hood haha! feel better bro! Great build again and yeah money saved

Man's nearly blew a irl headgasket SHEESH

Waterpumps have a weap hole, they will push it out if it has pressure in coolant system or its a cheap waterpump and just failed. It looks like thats exactly where its coming from in your video. Maybe if you would call me anymore lol.

Always wear a hard hat on the job site - ⛑️

Normally it a new water pump leaks you pressure test it to make sure the wheep hole isn't leaking on the pump

Paper WP gaskets will leak. Use only Subaru metal gaskets with no sealant and torque to spec.

I would hate to be the previous owner of this car watching your channel to see what an easy fix the car was with some careful diagnostic testing! Lol

That timing belt tensioner and idler looks nasty :S I heard that timing belt (the proper ones, like Gates) labels on the back side last as long as the changing interval, if there is no label on the belt, that means it is time to change it.

Man I wish I had a Bobby in my life: Makes me coffee and deep cleans my car

Get well soon

You should do a how to install gauges being that you have to change all the non essential gauges there. Step by step

That STI is a feisty one 😂 "don't touch me". Hope it didn't get you too bad man, great video!

Do the wheels the same color as the calipers on the evo 9. That lime green looked sick. And it would be something different

ouch! hope you’re good man

probably should check that AIO to make sure its not full if you havent yet

Wow the classic hood to head trick. OUCH!

Anytime the check engine like comes on it cuts cruise control and the dccd light in the cluster flashes

Man you got lucky with this one! How did it not blow out all the seals with 3 gallons of oil in it.. lose oil pressure from the crank fuckin up the oil in the crank case. Wonder how the cars emission components are doing after burning all that oil?. What a score tho. Wish I could find something like this. These early model Sti are becoming hard to find, and if you do they want like 15-18K. Which is completely ridiculous.

Glad your okay..😯

Hope your head will be fine

clean the speed sensor connector and the car will run back to normal and have the mph work again

Think after that hood to the head, I would have taken a break for the day. Ouch! Cant wait to see this car after your magic is done. 😎👍👍

Dude, that STI, doesn't like very much to hurt you like that hahaha. That must really hurt. Hope doesn't get worse

Just upload them all brother!

The white wheels do not go with the flow of the car body lines, they stick out to much. IMO I like the silver wheels better.

Holy shit I was laughing hard af when the hood hit you. Sorry that happened tho bro.

Damn, you make this look so easy

I wish I had the space to work on a car. I wish I had the tools to work on a car I wish I had a project car to work on a car

Miss the old dirty devin :( what a work horse

A steering wheel airbag saved my life

Are you changing the oil pickup tube as well? Those are notorious for breaking and destroying an engine. I remember changing mine back in the days when I had my 2004.

Get some TE's in mag blue for the sti

The old owner must be mad as hell he sold a good STI that just needed some attention

the amount of times my ole audi hood fell on my back 💀

We need a Cameron Niemela collab video !!

Wow that was scary to watch. You work alone and safety wise you are probably okay, but wow. I used to be a foreign car mechanic and all the shops I worked at had a policy if you have all the work done just replace the water pump always. When in any doubt replace the water pump and only buy new pumps, the factory pump always costs more by better. I think it is time to take this junker apart and do the Devin touch and fix everything under that hood. It has a lot of issues, every time you point that flashlight at something there is a problem.

Dude I watch all of Camerons videos. Then 1 of your evo videos got recommended so I watched it. I fault you were cameron lol. Can't wait to see the evo and new subaru up and running.

Is it just me or is Bobby working at someplace that looks very similar to the last lil coffee place she worked last year before she left . 🤔🤔🤔🥃🥃🥃

Why don't you pressurised the cooling system and try and see where it is keeping? Hope you head feels better bro.

Yo I have like 4 emblems for the front grille I can send you if you’d like

Does that water pump have a weep hole in it . Mine was leaking out of no where and it ended up being the weep hole .

Ouch!!! I feel your pain
