[@jaketrat3725]

Honestly my favorite video it’s just so unique and genuine

[@angry-white-men]

It's definitely not something you will ever see again that's for sure. This is the only guy his age who has a subie and will ever have a subie like this.

[@LordMustangGT93]

nice build. But, if the 2.5 was falling off, then the turbo & cams where too small. I'm waiting for someone to LS swap a Subie while leaving the awd system.

[@MrGamelover44]

Wouldn't work at all, subaru gearboxes are made of glass and break all gears around 350ft/lb sooo any v8 would put too much torque through it to do any pulls at all, and where the transmission mates to the engine in the Bay would make a v8 sit up in the air blocking your entire view lol

[@BottomOutGarage]

@@MrGamelover44 a lot of guys have run over 1000whp on stock sti transmission but i agree the engine probably wouldnt mate well with the trans

[@RadDadisRad]

@@MrGamelover44 the stock 4 speed automatics in those aren’t strong. The STi 6 speed manual is robust.

[@RadDadisRad]

To put the engine and transmission in the car you’d need a similar setup to the R32-R34 GTRs.

[@jeremiahjorenby2275]

@@RadDadisRad I'm sorry what? My 2010 Forester XT has the original 4EAT automatic with 253K miles. It has survived MANY 13psi launches and thousands of full boost shifts. The 4EAT is strong as shit at the kind of power levels you'll be running on a TD04, VF52, or VF39. The 5 speed manual is the one that is extremely fragile.
