If horse power is the only thing that people complain about the new STi, I think Subaru has done a fantastic job. And if horse power is the most important thing to you, you should go buy a Mustang GT. The STi is not the right car for you. :)

I don't think it stops with HP for a lot of people. It also has a lot to do with overall style. I wish there was a way to bring back the magic that they had from 04-07.
@substringzero1807 5 жыл бұрын
I love this styling though. It represents the old school Japanese sports cars. Many people say the front end is copying the EVO. But it is not a bad thing considering the EVO is iconic.

@@benjamindminor7552 true that. Problem is, people are getting too obsessed with power these days. If this car had 410hp they would've wanted it to have at least 450 and so on. They keep forgetting that power without proper driving and control is absolutely nothing.

Thanks for reviewing this car. This is by far one of the most comprehensive and honest reviews of a car I've seen in a long time. I was on the verge of trading in my 2013 WRX for a 2018 STI but held back because I found out the 2019 has an extra 5hp and stronger pistons. Yeah, it's not a lot, but it is a big leap for me. The other two factors are that I have a hatch that is no longer available /sad, and I certainly do not miss car payments. I'll just wait until they introduce the 2020 and see if the 2019 price drops. Although, what if they bring back the hatch? GAH

It s time to put things in perspective, in 2006 i purchased my first 305 hp sti for 48000$+taxes (loaded, canada pricing). Yes it was something to have a compact 305hp car, but so was the price. I also had a 2004 SVT prior to that with 400hp for 49000$. Today the STI have still have 310hp but can be had for still 48000$ . The decendent of my old SVT sells today for 75000 in canada (GT350). So it is not all bad for the sti, more peoples can afford it and experience the still great driving experience.

The power output didn't change, maybe. in 2004 A GTI had a price tag below $ 20,000.- Today you can pay over $ 37,000.- for one. The STI was $31,000 and there was no GTI that would go near that price. Today you can get an STI for a price below the one of some GTIs. I thank Subaru a lot for having improved the brakes, the rigidity, the interior.

The biggest downer for me, when it comes to the current WRX and the STI, is the sedan body style. The wagon/hatch would have been a whole lot more practical and Subaru as a brand is all about practicality and rugged usability. As a prior owner of the WRX wagon, this generation of the WRX/STI are non-starters to me, due to this reason. I have an extra-large dog-crate to accommodate, and a Sedan or coupe would simply not cut it......the prior generation WRX wagon did the job beautifully.

I wanted the 2018 STI, but they were all out. The dealership also told me that there are 4 extra features on the 2019 STI. Moonroof, SRVD, Harman Kardon head unit and front camera. So I'm assuming that the STI that they have is the Limited Edition. And from my research, the standard 2019 STI doesn't have a Moonroof, front camera, Harman Kardon system, and the SRVD system. I will find out the first week of December.

I don't think there should be any markup on a 2019 STI. If anything if you do it right you should be getting under MSRP. Just do your homework!

If you add more horsepower to a 4 cylinder boosted engine you'll end up replacing gaskets every year. And Subaru would have to upgrade the transmission to hold all that power, main problems of STIs is blowing up the transmission. Idt Subaru wants to do all that.
@RaitisRides 5 жыл бұрын
If you tune it right and not go overboard you shouldn't have issues. Thank you for sharing your input!
@moisesr7840 5 жыл бұрын
Raiti's Rides of course if you tune right you shouldn't have issues but I was saying Subaru STI wouldn't want to add HP out of factory. They can do numerous upgrades as they did on the Type RA but only managed to make an estimate 310 hp.

@npaul4171 5 жыл бұрын
To my understanding, emissions and pistons likely played a more significant role than head gaskets or transmissions? Subaru upgraded the pistons in the RA and 2019 models, but it seems likely that these are still a hypereutectic piston with similar or identical clearance, and for emissions its seems likely that these still may run a bit lean at low end, even when initially spooling, which is a risk factor for detonation - something the EJ257 has not historically dealt well with (i.e., a different piston material accompanied with very different factory maps might have enabled the RA/2019 to do more, but would probably impact emissions and fuel economy.) The STI has one of the more robust manual transmissions on the market, and many are making major torque with little more than a clutch upgrade (even the OEM clutch is pretty robust). Several WRX transmissions have a reputation for being notably less robust, and some 2002-2003 5-speeds used in the WRXs had issues even with factory power levels. From the power perspective, the first thing to go with the (US-destined) WRX STI's engine is commonly the pistons. For those looking for longer-term reliable power, they commonly go for something like one of the various IAG-built short blocks, where 500+ WHP builds aren't that unusual (and, those looking to go nutty have well-exceeded 1,000 WHP. [Now as to why one would want a 1,300 WHP STI...I have not the slightest idea.])

A lot of it has to do with the owners doing mods but not getting a proper tune. I've owned three StI's over the years and never had an issue.
@RoughNek72 5 жыл бұрын
Ok! I keep hearing on KZfaq videos that they aren't forged pistons, that the new ones are not as strong. I guess there is someone trying to get a class action lawsuit over it. Dumb I know.

I doubt the car is going to have a major change for at least 2-3 year more years.....the simple fact is WRX and STI dosen't make Subaru the kind of money the crossovers do. Just like Mitsubishi that dropped the Lancer and Evo to focus on crossovers. The money needed to redesign a highly praised new WRX and STI can be used elsewhere at Subaru and the execs know it.....
