Some of us can only dream of a 600hp reliable daily 😜 sounds like fun!

600hp is insane 4 daily..

@shackyboi1891 8 ай бұрын

Nice to hear that 600hp on Subaru is reliable. I want that power level, but have problem with couple of tuning houses...I have problem with car too...head gasket 😄 so it will be in garage for longer time, I guess.

I had a 612 WHP '05 STI that I dailyed with an FP-zero bolt on turbo, And then IAG stage 2. Stock trans. Loved it.❤ ran everyday. Someone blew a red light and totaled it 😔 The best part is that when people ask about it I could tell them it's just bolt-ons and be telling the truth. Nothing much just the biggest bolt on turbo ever produced for a Subaru.😅 Car went undefeated against the exotics of Scottsdale AZ, of which there were many.

So I assume you lost a ton of money on the parts unless you parted out the salvable stuff

@@Craiggg12345 not really. Allstate tried to offer me $15k. I invoked the independent appraiser clause and got $30k for it. I could have done alright parting it out. But I would hate that headache. I didn't have a garage or even a driveway. I had a parking lot spot at the apartment. Sometimes, lol.

I just crossed the country again for the 5th time from Yukon to New-Brunswick in my hatchback sti that as 160 000km , didn’t even burn a drop of oil !! Original everything on the car !!!

I purchased a 2003 wrx last year and immediately swapped a 2019 STI motor, trans, diff, brakes and shit into it. Runs on link ECU. The whole point, it currently makes just over stock 2019 STI power but feels like about 600 in a gutted 03 wrx. Older STi's can be seriously great handing with amazing grip.

Does all that just bolt up??? I'm still planning what to do with my 05 because 200k stock engine is getting tired

@TylerSavin 8 ай бұрын

@@XD3blazemuch of it “bolts up”. It’s quite a process though and some weird axle combinations were required to get the brakes to fit on GD knuckles that take 5x114.3, and you’ll need to run a stand alone ECU because of the differences in cams and pcv. So it’s not that strait forward, took months to figure out, but it all fits… and is nuts. The more simple way would be to get an assembled type RA short block from subaru and put your heads on. Called the hybrid swap. Definitely the easiest way. Transmission wise it all bolts up but you’ll need a GD 6 speed drive shaft. So Auto Impreza or STi

246,000 Miles on the body of my 2008 STI. 1,750 Miles on the engine. The engine was only changed once so 245,000 ish miles on the stock engine. Original clutch was changed with the engine.

I got lucky and found a Subaru of America employee selling their 14k mile bone stock STI so I went to New Jersey to pick it up. I got bored with the power it made so I got an IAG 750 engine to make 500whp.

My 2008 sti has only 74,000 miles but has stage 2 protune, I have not driven as I baby it too much, with my Model 3, my sti kinda just and ornament in the garage would drive it around for a bit to hear the boxer rumble🎉

@KuyaPow626 8 ай бұрын

Holy crap! 170k miles and 120k on the current motor? That means an early failure on the original engine, I wonder what the root cause for that was (poor maintenance in the beginning by that original owner? Extreme hard use that the original owner didn't carry on to the new rebuild?). This is a beautiful car, wow! I hope she'll get the paint detailed soon so it pops again :D

I had an 08 wrx. We put 3 clutches in it. That year was bad for wrx/sti. I assume hers has a reinforced firewall. My son and I eventually figured out that a plate had to be welded onto the firewall and then mount the ms onto that. It worked.

Bought the same thing, rebuilt the engine, love it but men they are pig on gas. For the firewall for 20 cents worth of oil just spray some down the firewall, its been a year without problem, imho not worth the mod. Good luck.
