Damn, That hatch! miss that ride!

My exterior mods on my Subaru Wrx black 21 that made it extra clean are : 1) CS style front lip 2) CS Style Side Skirt 3) Dynamic Diode Fog lights yellow 4) F1 break light 5) JDMuscle front grill 6) Subbie tray to mount badge 7) OEm badge Clean af ;)

We need more of these types of videos. The information is really helpful

Short. Sweet. And very informative 🫡

Thanks for giving, practical, easy mods that the daily driver can afford and install to make their driving experience a bit better. Thumbs up!

Very well set of recommendations, I agree with everything 🔥

TANNER!! So much thanks for this type of video was waiting for it, its so informative and very useful. 😍😍😍

Your living the dream my brotha with those subies 💪🏾💯

AOS is definitely my next one. Great video well explained. Thanks for that bro.

First time I am hearing about the pitch stop mount upgrade as a priority. Will look into it.

Thank you so much for your in depth advice for subaru owners. I'm on my second STI, both heavily modified and still benefited from this information.

I love it when you do these! We were do. ❤

The air oil separator sounds like a great idea. Would possibly explain why between service intervals there is a drop in the oil level. Keep up the good work ✌️ love the videos

Another great video, id like to ad especially for older models maintenance wise upper radiator hose and regularly checking ps belt tension when it starts getting cold(freezing and below)

Second time owning a Subaru. My first one was a 07 Impreza 2.5 Hawkeye. Kept that thing bone stock for 250k miles. Had a few cars after that were nowhere near as reliable. So I finally came back and got a 16 WRX. Your videos are extremely helpful! It’s good to have this knowledge and know where to start. My goal is to have a reliable daily, with a solid mod here and there to make it a little more fun. Definitely not trying to push insane HP even though it’s fun to see 😅

Nice succinct video 👌next recommended mod would probably be a good set of tires once the stock ones go

was just thinking ab the tips for subaru owners video i watched when i first got my car and was wanting one of these again, next thing i know i open youtube and here we are , you’re the goat🐐

Thank you for clarity on getting the AOS. I will check with Irvine Subaru if I can get one. I'm keeping my 2020 STI stock. A great video brother. Subies forever and ever. 😊

Hey Smeedia! Always good to offer the recommends! Just a psa from my car. Engine blew and apparently 4 others same as mine have in the last 7 months in my city. Get your timing chain checked for the FA20+ models (mine was fa20dit 2017 model) I had engine failure same as all of them because the timing chain had teeth break and mistimed the engine until it blew.

beard is looking dope, my friend!!

Just did my Whiteline sway bars on Thursday. I would like to thank Kartboy for the endlinks.

Yuuuuussss!!! I love seeing all your mod lists!!! The va daily list helped me build my 19 sti!! Eager to really start building the car! Goal it 350 hp. Good for a show car/ fun daily!!! RANDOM UPDATE!!! 84 Rx7 is done for winter. It now can run. Just need a mew rad as mine blew. Next year i will be swapping the suspention to either a honda or subie set (availability at time) rebuilding the 12a then centrifugal supercharging it to minimize heat in the engine bay. Full body kit for extra tire. Big wimg for downforce and funzies!! All is gonna be built by me. I am sooo scared for the fab work 😅

My favorite mod is a tune to get rid of the emissions and to get rid of the 3,000 rpm engine stall

Mod # 1 - a large savings account you don't mind dipping into.

Nice timing, I'm picking up a 2013 wrx hatch today that ill be using as a daily and looking for where to start with mods

Great video, the majority of other KZfaqrs always miss the muffler deletes. They're pretty much the 1st mod (budget mod) before a cobb AP.

Pitch stop mount in my VB increased NVH by like 5%? But holy moly is so much better.

This man must make a good living... Damn!!! GG Should have more subs

I actually didn’t notice too much difference after my pitch stop, definitely felt a little more preppy but I felt like the group N trans mount made more of a difference.

Great video!!

Awesome video! Any chance you will take the 17 STi to sema next year??

GetaDomTune Cylinder 4 Chamber Cooling Mod and a well made aftermarket aluminum high performance radiator.

My first mods -catback -short shifter + bushings -AOS -Coilovers/lowering springs -CHECK YOUR OIL LOTS -front lip -CHECK YOUR OIL -your valve covers probably leaking- check your oil

Lol...for owners in Japan, beware. I took my brand-new WRX back to the dealer to have the off-center steering-wheel fixed (wheel alignment was out of whack from the factory) and got a call the next day to inform me the "illegal exhaust" (ETS Extreme Catback) means in future they're not allowed to do any work on the car other than recall stuff. Which means I have to put the OEM back on every time I need a service. Puh!

Ive been on rce yellows with koni struts for about 50k miles handling is incredible drop perfect. Ps also did roll center adjustment and tie rods and ball joints which is a pia. I believe technically you need rear adjustable arms too to get perfect alignment . Just started noticing slight inner tire wear in front. If i installed adjustable top hats to get camber closer to stock it would probably be more $ then bc coilovers...if/when i do it again coilovers would probably be cheaper in long run bc you can adjust out all these issues

Group N Pitch stop and motor mounts are good bolt ons too

need something like this for BRZ

Old school tanner videos are back!!!

1. AOS 2. Equal Headers 3. Pro Tune 4. Coils 5. Catback

I would even suggest a stiffer transmission mount or just installing a transmission mount insert. i did a transmission mount insert on my impreza and ive seen alot of benefits from it from crisper feeling shifts, better throttle response, less drive train loss and alot less sway druing braking and acceleration.

Nice video! Will pitch stop mount void the warranty?

I think the number 1 mod that must be done first.......the god damned raised arm rest. Whos idea was it to give no armrest?! Ridiculous! Edit: i have a 2020 so it doesnt come stock.....i dont know if the older ones do.

One thing I will say.. my first wrx. I was a modder on a tight budget. I mean tighter that nun.. lol I wanted to do a muffler delete. I went to ebay, bought muffler tips. Cheap and something that looked good. it was under 60 bucks. Had a local shop here in my home town weld up a pipe to replace the muffler. 125 for that. 185 bucks total and it looked good for not having money.

I’m about to do Bilstein B8 shocks paired with RCE yellows unless BC coils are cheaper. Haven’t looked at them yet

Love the vid even though It Doesnt apply to me anymore lol. Side Note if you're planning n keeping the Seibon Trunk for a while know you'll need to clearcoat it if its new. Seibon Uses crap polyester Resin that isnt UV safe so it will yellow unless you UV clear it. They will start to fall apart and yellow after like 3months its bad.

I have a completely stock 06 sti that has the rear clunk issue. I want to just stick with factory suspension but waa thunking for cost i could just do BC's. Would those be a pretty comparable feel to the stock STI suspension?

Note: deleting your mufflers can be VERY illegal in a few states. Please check before you get a big ticket or fail a state inspection. 👍

Just the tips.

Hey Mr smeeds is It possible to do a forward facing manifold that keeps ac

Are there any good exhaust setups for the FA20 that can provide a deeper rumble similar to the STI, Or would I need to upgrade my engine to like a FA24 to get even remotely close?

Have you built an older rs impreza? Ive been looking at them lately and there kinda cool looking

I would like to find out if these 5 mods can be done on the 2022+ WRX. Also, it would be great if you could point me to a video that shows how to tune the 2022+ WRX to around 350HP.

You mentioned Sway bars but does a strut bar help at all, mainly for dailying and a spirited drive to/from work..

First step throw the top mount in the garbage then do pitch stop and aos😂 I wanna do my pitch stop but the intercooler drives me nuts and hate putting it back on

I bought a 2013 STI, and was told it has a tune. Not sure what tune, seems to be Cobbs because of the Cobbs parts like a Cobbs boost controler, air intake and divorced down pipe catback exhaust. Can get a new access port for the car that had a tune before. It's a daily driver.

What best brand do you recommend for the rear sway bar ? I hear so many stories of so many brands that break easily !

Are there any valved exhausts you recommend? (Are there even any for newer STI’s?) I want to hear the car on my drive, but not wake my kid when I start it up.

I'm late. I was watching a friend stream MW3. What are your thoughts on a 257 short block with 205 heads? I'm considering maybe going that route.

my turbo blew up at 60k miles lol ive owned it since 13k miles I blame myself for premature failure

BISH!!!!!!!!!!................................great video! All it needed was more dog.

13!

I have a 5th Gen Impreza wagon (2019). does this car utilize the same chassis as the new WRX? if so, would wrx suspension bolt up to the Impreza? I wish my wagon had stiffer suspension, but I don't want to lower the car very much, I feel like over an inch drop from springs would be too much for me

Ive been looking at coilovers for about a yr now . Cant seem to find anywhere were coilovers make the ride more comfortable. All you get is height adjustment . And worse feeling ride. Meaning worse then factory when comes feeling every bump and thats pretty bad . Lol😂

Hey tanner do with the pitch stop mount, shouldn’t you also have better motor mounts and transmission mount otherwise the pitch stop could be bad for the car?

Bruh, come join the live stream 😂

My buddy had an rx7 back in the mid 90s, i dont rember him using premix in his gas for some reason?

I have a 23 wrx, I’m going to do fortune auto coilovers. Do I need lower control arms as well?

Shifter Stop is my favorite for a 6MT Subaru. Does that count as a modification 😂?

Does a muffler delete need a tune? Would it still meet texas specifics?

With an AOS you should check your state’s emissions laws. In California if you take the car in to be smogged and it has an aftermarket AOS they will fail your car, at least that’s what I’m told.

Had to replace both valve cover gaskets on my '16 wrx. Leaking spark plug wells. Is that from 19 lbs boost? $540.😢

if i already switched both sway bar should i just get an even thicker rear sway to balance it out?

What brand of catch cans would you recommend?

Just recently got a 2010 STI that the dealership is putting a new motor in due to their negligence. With the car being my daily when I get it back and not planning on doing any track days how imperative is it to do the windage tray and oil pickup?

I'm in a '23 premium and it is semi-daily. Minimal rain if I can help it and no snow/salt/ sub 40F weather. It will be stored this winter. I'm saving for coilovers and I'm mostly set on fortune auto with swift springs mainly because I'm 46 and have a wife that already complains about the stock ride harshness. I'm not rich and the fortune setup is not cheap but im willing to do it if it satisfies my wants as well as her needs. If the ride is worse I don't want to hear about it every time we go for a drive. Should I stick to the plan or explore a cheaper option? I'm already semi-regretting the (not at all cheap) ETS extreme catback. It's loud AF especially at idle and those who say there's no drone are deaf. It sounds great but it attracts the wrong attention from neighbors. Maybe I should have done muffler version or just the axleback. The stealth black tips do look amazing on my magnetite. Thanks for all the great vids Tanner. Love this channel.

You sure we cant buy a 100K miles+ and just send it to the moon without any maintenance🤣 Seriously, thats a nice list that will make the car more enjoyable! 🚗💥💨🔥

This is my first winter with an aos I hope I’m not effing myself cuz I live in Indiana

Anybody know what the front caster plate is good for? It’s optional with BC coils and it’s an extra $250 but I don’t understand it’s purpose?

A new pitch stop mount needs a new transmission mount. Otherwise the oem mount is stressed and may fail

Thanks for this video! Wish some prick didn’t clip the back of my 2021 wrx and total it so I could keep modding it! Usually the first thing I change immediately is a weighted shift knob and strut tower bar! Cheapest noticeable mods in my opinion! And I miss the sound of my invidia r400 catback I put on it! Shitty drivers suck 😂

First comment 😁

Mannnn when Is this rx7 content coming back 😮‍💨

The sun visors in my 21 limited suck!! Otherwise I love my car

Anyone know how much HP the stock fa20 block good for?

You gotta make 1 promise, seeing as you won't stop with the grinder or drill on your body panels please please please *NEVER* install those boso exhausts on any of your soobs! 😜

I didn't know Eminem was a KZfaqr 😂 jk.

What are your top 5 coilovers?

😎👍🏻👍🏻

None of these mods are needed or necessary for street driven or daily driven cars.

i have a 24’ impreza sport with a 2 cylinder engine , is there anything i can mode on this car ?

I want reliability first and foremost

The stock Subaru pitch stop mount is designed to sheer during a front end collision and allow the motor and gearbox to dip down and move under the car/passenger compartment. Although an aftermarket pitch stop mount will firm up the motor mounting and improving throttle response it also is very dangerous in a big front end collision as the motor and gearbox will push through the firewall and into the passenger compartment..... Just food for thought.

Muffler ‘delete’?!?!? NO!!!! Wtf…..
