Big Turbo 2015 Subaru WRX - Time Attack Win

[@johnnyVGtran]

yes a channel showing the tuning potential of the VA Wrx! keep them coming guys

[@christopherrogers8316]

did u mean fa

[@ErectileSceptile]

@@christopherrogers8316 VA is the name of the chassis given to the 2015+ WRX/STI

[@kirkniese3063]

A proper thrashing! Nice driving, great story line ! The FA20 is a much better engine than many give it credit for. Keeping my stock for now but man! this is inspiring! Best to you all!

[@hybridmarketer661]

As a WRX owner who has built his car to 400whp this video and driving is amazing. Subies are no joke, I GAP mustangs, Camaros, all types of cars and most will pull and be like "what the F you got in that thing:) FAVORITE part of video is that last lap "drive like it like you stole it! Nice work Chris!

[@Cichlid_Visuals]

2 wheel salutes in the va chassis! lol i find that even the stock suspension is quite durable, ive gotten my completely bone stock 21' up on two wheels a couple times and it definitely says hi to the bump stops HARD on the way back down lol. happy to report its holding up to my abuse no issue (aggressive backroad driver) so i imagine with the upgraded components you guys are running its handles those hard curbs no sweat. i like Chris' driving style! reminds me of my own lol. he has a good instinct for the fastest line and how to clip those curbs and gaps.

[@majd00shka]

Great setup. I think a new final drive ratio along with the current setup would do great.

[@mattcortelyou1781]

"Ugghhh im so good" 😂😂😂 phenomenal driver

[@doorey2]

“Chris was on a mission to leave it all out on the track...” yea maybe in pieces...

[@styleemusic]

Good job dudes, I have the same car 2015 a s4 jdm spec, sick. Currency getting the timing kit replaced.

[@Sub_93]

Great win guys.

[@rovingenglishman]

Great driving!

[@aplong1911]

Great video thanks for sharing!

[@markayala]

stock transmission?? I don't feel as bad now launching my WRX lol

[@rsg_kev]

It has a STi 6-Speed with DCCD controller! Such an awesome build on a WRX! kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6XZhI2kl79qipY&ab_channel=SpeedAcademy

[@Steve-qr2lm]

Out of interest, how did the stock FA20 hold up through those few seasons with stock internals?

[@TylerSavin]

I tracked my WRX a couple times, ran it hard on a stock block FBO E85 with EWG headers. Everything held up fine, but I could tell the transmission wasn't going to endure it much longer. It's on my channel if you want to check it out. It was fast, but yea I could tell it was a ticking time bomb.

[@brendanfogel4573]

Yeah if you get the Sti trans you’ll be happy bro. Basically bulletproof

[@fabriziofazio1002]

what wheels are those they look pretty sick

[@andrescano1122]

what wheel/tire sizes are you guys running?

[@helllokitty138]

How fast did the matrix at 1:05 do the lap in?

[@icyhtotwheel]

What’s the suspension setup on it? Coilovers and swaybars?

[@savegcyclist]

Since they didn’t mention upgrading it, they still have stock suspension per speed academy channel when he was interviewed about the car. Only upgrade is the Whiteline 22mm adjustable rear sway bars.

[@lifeisgood070]

Also real question, how many races do you get out of a steering rack? Or is this the RA with the upgraded rack? I feel like I blow through racks

[@lowlifeangler]

Wow Hondas and BMWs in the back of the field , I'm shocked LoL

[@genghis_bob6214]

Are those the 18x8 team dynamics? What size tire?

[@craigebaker1]

How have you gotten around the HPFP issue?

[@remissiveslave]

Definitely have to build the internals or these are trash. U haven't decided if I want a Aig closed deck block stage 2.5 or Judy get better rotating assembly internals. But I don't dare tune or bolt on these stock. Slready had short block replaced at 28k a d I took good care of it the whole time.

[@brandonjan_]

hey just curious if anyone knows how much weight reduction i should expect from blowing my nose?

[@bigeric12476]

What brand is the blue rims on the car?

[@Steve-qr2lm]

I want a WRX for the FA20 but plan on tracking it frequently, do you have issues with the open diffs in the WRX?

[@Two-Stack]

this has an STI rear diff

[@Cichlid_Visuals]

rear diff swap is easy and pretty affordable and it makes these cars rotate MUCH better. i have a bone stock 21 wrx base and notice on throttle understeer pretty bad compared to my nephews car which is a pretty heavily modded 2015 with a rear diff upgrade. as long at you are already point to the apex before you give it throttle you should be alright. happy to report the car WILL rotate when you lift the throttle even with the stock differential, but once you get back on the gas it will return to understeer.

[@ErectileSceptile]

Yeah I'd go with a rear diff swap if possible. Should not be too expensive either, you can pull the diff off a junked / part out STI.

[@anthonysinclair2684]

Is this on an IAG block??

[@TougeTuning]

This is on a short block we built in house.

[@slowassmiata]

Ray tuned my 19 WRX too.

[@cjlsniper]

Can he keep it on the track please?

[@TalSarig24]

If it's faster and it's legal, then it's faster.

[@Cichlid_Visuals]

touge driver habits lmao

[@hendrahendra]

Time to ditch the GTX 3576 for the new Garrett G30 or G35

[@SuperJoshhosh]

What exhaust setup¿

[@harootpashayan]

stock wrx drivetrain?

[@TougeTuning]

The car sports an STi transmission and rear differential.

[@Steve-qr2lm]

Touge Tuning open front diff? Love these fa20 videos!

[@rsg_kev]

It has a STi 6-Speed with DCCD controller! Such an awesome build on a WRX! kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6XZhI2kl79qipY&ab_channel=SpeedAcademy

[@lifeisgood070]

Ok last tip. Car tires shouldnt screech in a race. Tire pressure or downforce is wrong. And yes depending on the layout of the track he might have to run different tire pressures on the right and left side…. Not just front/back. Tire temps will tell you what to do.

[@lifeisgood070]

This car doesnt work with a 6500rpm redline. Gearbox is designed for 8k redline. Way too close gearing. 3500k-8k is where it wants to be driven. Could be higher depends on turbo. But you might have to stroke it with longer rods to reduce the g force on a higher redline.

[@lifeisgood070]

Also in pro racing…. Almost no one makes time up in straights or with more corner speed…. That’s just what it looks like because that’s where ppl get passed. You make time braking later and with different corner entries….

[@gtiturbo85]

How you manage to spin an awd car on DDT is beyond me... 🤣
