1 Year Ownership Review - 2011 Subaru WRX (Mods, Maintenance Etc.)

[@MillionDollarDream]

My motor blew on my GR Hatch days ago after my 3 month owning, never hard driving it 🤓. Got it for “reliability”. my “race car” has been more reliable. Sucks but it is what it is.

[@stevey_vb]

That sucks man, sorry to hear 😬

[@phillopp]

hoping to get one soon! looking at two this weekend 🤙

[@stevey_vb]

That’s awesome! So happy for you bro hope it all goes well 🤞🏼

[@phillopp]

i appreciate the maintenance breakdown. gives a really good heads up!

[@stevey_vb]

That’s all good man. Can be different for others though, all just depends on the condition of the car and how it’s been treated 😁

[@spaghetti941]

The thing with the front bumper. The paint will always apear slightly different because its plastic and the hood and fenders are metal. Thats just how it is. Even after i had my front end resprayed on my old liberty the front bumber still apeared as a slightly different shade.

[@stevey_vb]

@@spaghetti941 that’s true I never thought of it that way!

[@rc70ys]

I prefer stock over modified Also usually when they change timing belt they’ll change the water pump too 😊

[@stevey_vb]

Yep forgot to mention that. I asked for my water pump to be done too 👍🏼

[@rc70ys]

@@stevey_vb Awesome 👏 better safe than sorry it’s a big job and expensive too. When you purchased your Subaru how did you know it was a good one ? Did you have it independently inspected

[@stevey_vb]

@@rc70ys I didn’t have it inspected but the car was just immaculate and super clean. It had 1 owner and 98,000km. I kinda just new it was well taken care of.

I bought mine at 18 and now im 19 now. I got a 2014 wrx rally blue sedan stock for $8k mint condition no rust or nothing. I've got all the same parts coming in soon.

[@stevey_vb]

Nice!!

[@DeeLuxist]

Legend I’ve just picked myself up a GV 2011. The first of the widebody variants. I can’t wait to dive into your videos. I’ve just found your channel. Having an attempt at the new C style lights today haha no idea what I’m doing. I’ve got the Invidia Q300 and love the sound. I’ve only had one old man try and stop me in the street to tell me to stop being a hoon (for simply driving to work lol). Can’t wait for the updates!

[@stevey_vb]

Good luck with the C lights! I did mine too and it took me a while because I was by myself haha. I really love the Q300, my friend has it and it has such a nice tone to it and isn’t too obnoxiously loud.

[@Godinx97]

bro you did the best mods didint touche the engine you are safe and only tastfull mods not gonna lie 10/10

[@stevey_vb]

I’ve touched the engine now 😅😅

[@wanderers5675]

Thanks for the Ideas bro. Actually im looking to get 1 2011 wrx sti white. With 26k kilometers on it. Here in the Philippines Odo’s are no so high. I hope it is what I expected it. Have a good one.

[@stevey_vb]

Awesome man! That’s really low kms, good job 👍🏼

[@yujun9777]

How the hell you manage to keep your front bumper lined up with the your body that well? Mine has a big gap bumper gap ..

[@stevey_vb]

Hahaha I don’t think it’s been taken off that much during its life. My friend used to say the same thing 🤣

[@lucasmachado4388]

How much do you spend to keep the car? I'm Brazilian and I ended up not understanding much

[@stevey_vb]

Do you mean maintenance wise?

[@lucasmachado4388]
