The sustained high G corners on this track are likely why you're going through engines. Time for a track-focused oil pan with proper baffling in it for both cars. That and doing the cylinder 4 cooling improvement mod since you're hot lapping all the time.

[@mastrFlex]

Seriously, these are 17 year old cars, base WRX's aren't STI's, and the weaknesses of the platform are extremely well know. The lack of (on screen at least) reliability work is getting sad to watch. Oil baffle to prevent starvation, cylinder 4 mod for improved cooling, clean (or replace) the fuel injectors and coil packs to avoid misfiring. Those are the big ones. When they buy bigger turbos, they'll need Air Oil Separators.

Everything about this video is excellent. The only problem with the comparison is that both brake kits should have used the exact same pads. Pads make a massive difference to brake fade and feel, so both brake kits need identical pads for an accurate comparison. My guess is that both brake kits would have performed close to identical on the brake fade test. The AP brakes are just lighter, stronger and better quality.

[@Mongo6186]

True, however, the low car's brake kit CAME with pads, and the high car did not. I would like to think if neither came with pads, they would choose to do it that way. Otherwise I feel like using what comes with the kit is part of the whole premise of the series.

[@jeffmayo6002]

High temp pads make a big difference

[@Demonslayer20111]

Yep. I bet that is exactly the case. Some red stuff ebc pads would be good

[@jerseyboycustoms]

100%. 90% of the time you don't need bigger brakes, just better pads and rotors. It's if they fade seriously is when you start looking to go bigger

[@thodoriskanellos3458]

This started to feel like a movie after a while, this series keeps getting better

[@daveruiz85]

It's more like a TV show tbh

[@zaidizainal2495]

I swear Nolan got better and better in racing. He's now so far from who Nolan i know earlier Donut era. He might be the intelligent guy with glasses who know much about car but he's not like Zach or Jerry, who seem have more experience in racing and car building back then. But now, he's among them. Or should i say, he's the best of them in my opinion. I don't know why i feel so proud when he set the best lap time and keep on going episode by episode. Maybe because I've been following Donut for so long that i can see his progression. I want to be him. Not that i don't care about other crews but this is what i can say about Nolan Sykes.

[@EvostarSC]

He's an avid sim racer, he's got an advantage on most those guys running laps.

[@kevinwatson7373]

I really like the series. I would say that in this test we only got half the story. I would have liked to see the fade comparison on the pads. Unless I missed it low car didn’t have the same pads which is huge. Those decide effective heat ranges. So one is good at hot laps but when cold has no bite. Daily driver pads tend to stay towards the colder side since they don’t brake back to back in any way like a track care does. The rotors are the same size which means the same surface area for contact and heat dissipation. The composition might decide how effective they are in the long run but not like the pads will. At least I can’t see a reason they wouldn’t. I’ve really wanted an AP kit even before the series and what I was told by them is their kits bread and butter is it’s rebuilding capability. It also doesn’t use rubber seals like stock brakes or for instance the sti brembos which melt under hot lap stress. I guess for this and future videos I’d like to see the same pad being used so we know it’s the other components shining not the pad qualities. Also a stock ej255 isn’t a great race choice engine in my opinion. I’ve had much better luck with either built versions of ej255/257 or the 2L. They tend to take it better. I’ve had the same used 207 and 205 for race days for a couple years now. Are these run on pump tunes only? E85 is especially nice for track days. Could have helped save the engines at least longer. Mitigate knock and detention events with high temps and high egts. I know there was a lot of back lash on the series for the light it painted on Subarus. They are reliable but they have less “fuck around and find out” room as say a Honda which is more forgiving. The general support mods do wonders for longevity on these. Just takes time dealing with them to know. Still enjoy it. Think its a combination of things causing the many failures occurring.

[@NotNinjaNaj]

dont worry James youre more than qualified to do hi-low and any other donut series! youre so qualified that you inspired me and my gf to start our own project car together. thank you for introducing us to this wonderful world of car tuning!!!

When Zach said Hi Low couldn't be finished I nearly shed a tear, what a roller coaster of emotion

[@divyansh2729]

I absolutely love this series and really appreciate the team efforts....also the edit at 18:46 was sick 🔥

[@dermax_hd]

What edit?

[@billf4429]

I really admire your sense of humor in general. Very professional and yet like an awsome blue collar mechanic.

[@QuanticChaos1000]

9:48 Never pump the brakes, just push once and hold for each cycle of bleeding. Being a closed system pumping feels like you create more pressure but it's actually causing air and fluid in the system to become frothy. A single push and hold for each bleeding cycle will give you way better results. Improper bleeding can cause brake fade.

[@AW-qv6xx]

First thing I noticed. (after the chisel to the intake) :)

[@Burgo361]

I've been bleeding brakes wrong then too, thanks for the tip.

[@benjaminluke8799]

Or use a pressure bleeder and don’t touch the brakes at all, I like this method the best because you don’t need a helper

[@SplosionMovies]

This episode of HiLow most embodied the spirit of modding cars with the types of stuff they ran into. I love this episode sm

[@outsidestudiog6483]

At this point, the Hi-Car WRX is a giant tax write-off for the whole Donut company 😂 keep up the dedication boys

[@Wizardnil]

LOL

[@kenbrown9773]

I've crashed a couple cars, and it always hurts me to see that storm of emotion on James's face after he snaps the axle. I think it's the only time that he hasn't come across as a happy guy; I'm sure he's pissed during a lot of videos (because life) but that's the only time I remember it showing on his face. I always just wanna give him a hug. And I do love the witty merch plug 30 seconds later! Hilarious!😂

[@thedeadlygamer8472]

Man Zack you had me tearing up, I thought this season of HiLow is over 💔. Glad to see you guys pick yourselves up and keep going, you guys are such high motivation for me and my car enthusiasm

[@YakubNg]

15:38 that is the moment i teared up. freakingdamn it i love you all in Donut Media. thanks for the Great Series . . .!!!

[@Rad-920]

I love the fact that they turned this series in to a drama, can’t wait for the next episode

[@민-s8m]

best series on youtube. Just amazing

[@alexg664]

Awesome. A good "cheap" upgrade for a wrx is always the factory STI Brembos.

[@raynetorrin]

Yeah was going to say that is the normal route. But they might have been trying to go for same size rotors. I cant remember but i think the STi rotors are smaller.

[@refreshing_ac6371]

So glad James and Jerry are ok! Also glad that you guys are committed to putting out great content that you worked overtime to get another car and keep it going! Hopefully Hi car’s luck turns around soon 😂

[@CheechElMexicano]

I can't express how much I felt the disappointment when the car gets hurt, I've been in them shoes and it's way too familiar but in the end I'm glad you guys decided to gear up and wrench down to get on the road again. Bless you guys I hope in the future this won't happen but who are we kidding if it breaks replace it 😉

The visual gag of James hitting an engine with a screwdriver at 0:37 is so good lmao. Barely caught it at first

[@JMartinsATV]

I love that they went to the trouble of covering the cars but spoiled the surprise twice in the intro 😂 👌

Im not gonna lie... I cheered, I teared up, I lost my mind all in a couple minutes. HIGH LOW is the greatest series on KZbin.

2:27 cutest bro moment i've seen in Donut hist so far

[@Mia.Angelena.17]

This might be my favourite episode ever for so many reasons. The relatability, the raw honesty, the friendship, just the reality of cars ❤

as a subaru hawkeye owner i have been loving this season of hilow, was scared for a minute with the crash but you boys are legends for keeping it going and really teaching me a lot about my own car, much love to donut media

i also have a hawkeye. this series is really bringing out the subaru haters tho
