Our 550HP Subaru WRX STI RIPS HARD!

[@VS666]

I actually enjoyed this build more than I imagined. Not a Subuwu guy but this hatch kept me coming back

[@chrisridebike8]

$25k CAD?! Thats a steal! This is going to be a great car for someone

[@trigun989]

oh id love it at 25K but im pretty sure that's their reserve. Prly will go for closer to 30

[@feralstripes1919]

@@trigun989 25K canadian is a fair price- 30k is overpriced, keep in mind it is still a 2009 Subaru STI(old car) at the end of the day, you can buy a newer model modified WRX with lower miles for much cheaper. Alot of people who modify their cars think they are getting 100% of their money back from putting aftermarket parts on a car & that is never the case, cars still stay at their KBB suggested used retail price, it does not matter if it has 100K worth of aftermarket parts!

[@UnderAchievrLP]

15+ steering rack, CArbon drive shaft and updated headunit and this thing would rock as a summer daily

[@SimpleEnigma331]

i have a 15+ rack in my 05 Forester XT. Love it!

[@TheBiggestSkeet]

CF driveshaft for a daily is a little bit of overkill hahaha

[@Jon95McC]

This was one of my favourite builds. The colour, the mods, the wheels, everything is perfect. I wish I had the money for it right now.

[@russ4AGE]

My favourite build so far(shh Connie). It even beat a F430. Sad to see it go without an EVO battle. Great build guys.

[@y.b.-]

Man that is a cheap price for an incredible build.....bummer I am not in Canada. Pretty sure the future owner will have a bliss

[@ExpressionCulture]

Ive never really been into Subaru’s but ive always liked this generation because of the hatch being so different to the usual Impreza saloons. Also that noise! Wow it sounds so good on boost

[@anthonyrobitaille8963]

That build make me discover Speed Academy and it's one if my favorite! Little bit sad to see it go but I'm super excited about the GC project!

[@jdmfreak22]

I love this. Built, driven, now need room and funds for other projects, so .. selling it, showing the good and the bad. Real people can't keep them all! It's sad to see it go, but at the same time, it's a little bit more relatable, lol. Hope this sells fast and does you.good, you deserve it!

[@IDlikeanEvo]

Guy's I love your content keep on going you deserve way more , you have one of the most crazy car fleet I've ever seen on KZbin. Its so nice to see a lot of different thing's all the time !

[@fkhothatchi]

I'm sad now. I have been waiting for this car to be in action. and is the only STI or subaru I think fits Speed Academy. everybody in KZbin build sedan or gc this makes you guys really different. sad..

I've seen far more of this gen than GC8s on YT tbh!

[@RJon2006]

I’m an American muscle guy but I love these STIs. Cool build! Someone will be getting a very fun car!

[@pradanaldi]

Love how you treat these cars

[@JordieG8]

Power steering leak from the box. If you disconnect the U joint and pull up the boot, you'll see it weeping out of the shaft. Classic.

[@clintwhite4372]

I re-watched the Abandoned STI series last month. And it's cool to see the car again. At least before it sells.

[@wusisniper]

This car got me into speed academy! Sad to see it go :(

[@gickneorge]

I’ve never understood summer driver only Subaru STI’s in Canada. Love the car and build! I had a 2011 STI hatch in the same colour.

[@SwampyF4RT]

I will miss this car! It’s what got me to subscribe. Sad to see you guys didn’t do much with it. But I really did enjoy watching you build it and I’m grateful for getting to learn as you went.

[@albegt98]

the sound of a bombed Impreza is unique ..... I have had a GC8 for 5 years and I enjoyed it when I released its power ..... congratulations good job guys ;-)

[@Perception_]

And that was video 27 viewed from start to end... I believe that concludes me liking this series, and I also made a playlist of them all. I like that not every build on youtube has to be over 1000hp, and that some people actually understand what's more righteous for each individual car as well as owner. Horsepower is fun, but power is nothing without control. Build for purpose...

[@chadlegault9993]

Thank you for doing an in-depth review of the car. It is interesting to see.

[@umesco0obie427]

I've watch this build over and over.. i dream of having a subaru, specially if it comes close to this.. well, i'll just keep dreaming..

[@AustinsBroadcast]

This car is the reason I joined the channel, Its my favorite of Subaru's. Sad you guys didnt make more videos with it, actually ripping on it.

[@craiglenahan1454]

I have a 2011 WRX same color and I’m doing the same style build except with the 2.5l Same color and interior so this was a great series to see! I am in Montana and it will be just for summers. Thanks for the great tips on what to look for and address!

[@almightysir8372]

Ran Comp stage 3 in mine at 431whp/399tq and it held like a champ and also drove as smooth as OEM👌

[@RicknWRX]

Just need a super trapp muffler on the ewg to fix that issue. $50. That is what i did with the wrx i used to have. Great car guys and nice video as always!

[@zacharyanderson9222]

Might be super late on this. But you mentioned the clutch sucking. Which I noticed in my hatch too. There’s a rivet kit for the firewall that can fix that issue but I’m sure someone had mentioned it to you

[@andysgaragetherapy]

Every time one of these beauties leaves the garage, I’m not so sad because it means something else is about to tantalize us on the channel! Good luck with the sale, I sure hope it goes smoothly. 🤞🏻

[@HeidiFegles]

Can say that the g30-660 on a 2.5 is pretty sweet. And no it’s not that big. It’s basically a ball bearing td06-20g size wheels but the shape allows for way more efficiency and flow

[@ninopanino10]

Would be cool if you guys did some sort of sponsorship with Cars and Bids and sell your cars on there!

[@maverick2242]

Yeah gonna miss this, this car is what made the channel for me, the Euro stuff has lost me honestly, hope it goes to a good home. Look forward to some Supra and GTR content though.🤘

[@mondomoleno.3404]

I'd love to see you guys build up another subie but for rally/ice racing. Get the Evo and an STi battling it out on their true home turf

[@lukelaming3445]

Love the Ontario plates!!! Hello from Kingston.

[@bwhobackk]

There's so much room in the engine bay and underneath! Made me curious how you guys would handle an N54 e92 build. Tons of power headroom on unopened block, a few different ways to make it. Should also give you the expected amount of 'broken BMW' content. I'd love to see some content on that platform.

[@davetbrunner]

My first time modding cars was a Subie, I want one again so bad! The hatch has always been so cool, plus c'mon, EJ207 is the motor everyone wanted. If I sell a few things I'm interested in Indiana 😆

[@jakelowk559]

I would literally drive all the way up there from down here in Vegas if I had the money, what a steal!

[@SilentGruntz]

This is my absolute dream car I would love to have one, one day

[@jae9843]

lol @14:58. I literally scared the crap out of a bunch of birds once in a car with a screamer pipe on it. I floored it going under an expressway sign and next thing I knew the windshield and roof got absolutely pelted with bird poo. I didn't see them, but there had to have been at least a dozen birds perched on top of the sign.

[@AlphonsoTimmins]

God this makes the prices we ask for most things in Australia look even more ridiculous

[@1981sud]

Was expecting at least 35k

[@tonycrispin]

Super bummed we never got to see this car put through the paces on a couple of track days or an epic road trip. The build series was fun, just wanted to see some more action!

[@darkmatteroats4544]

As GF owner, I am CHUBBED at the thought of a Speed Academy GC build

[@RandomGuyWithaMazda]

Ive got that same raceeng knob on my 987, very nice feel to that piece

[@BeardedCarBuddy]

I believe that I remember Modified Mag having the first modified STI hatch of this gen.

[@MrDannyd9]

I forgot how many nice parts were on this thing because of the low power... this is an example of needing ethanol. E85 and a retune would be awesome.

[@nonofyourbusinessnonofyour5435]

That wrap on exhaust header will surface rust piping once it gets wet

[@benjaminkotrla943]

I put up a very very mint 13 STI hatch, and even though it shows on the inexpensive end in Autotrader, I have had little interest. I keep hearing of these things demanding top dollar, but so far I’m not seeing that. Maybe cause I’m in Winnipeg. GLWS!

[@_thatslows14]

thats a deal for that car with the mods its a fitting price because you did such simple mods like bolt on turbo kits instead of rotated

[@whitechapel6669]

If I wasn’t having a kid I would buy this lol, can’t wait have a car to share with my kid!

[@FrankKumro]

This build inspired me to pick up an STI of my own, sad to see her go but the GC build is going to be amazing. I'm going to go back and watch the build series again today :) DP you are looking studly my man!

[@cameronkeffer5787]

So bummed to not see this put the Evo VI in its place, but yeah I definitely get the needing funds bit.

[@HeidiFegles]

Those oem sti seats are as close to a race seat as you want for a daily. The actual race seats suck bawls for daily.

Did it ever sell!?? Disappointed that the evo 6 didn't get a chance to gap it! Haha 4g63 for the win! But the competition twin disk does suck and open wastegate is the way to go!

[@lawrences1347]

Shame to see this one go. Maybe get a 2 door STI one day to add to the collection of JDM icons you've got going there.

"you dont need more power than that" *sees a vid of some other STI @800 hp and how crazy it is.. Yeah now I want more power..😂😂

[@tragicnomadic]

I'd be weird... I'd swap out the turbo for a slightly smaller one for better spool. And then sort out the clutch and work on getting it to rotate.

[@AutomotiveAddicted]

13:08 - "Is that a supra?!"

[@xozindustries7451]

I really like this Subaru, it sounds much better than any other one I’ve heard because of the equal length header. I wouldn’t go any more power than this level, to keep it reliable. I would have liked to see the pay off video against the Evo, did you ever do hot laps with it? I thought the motor was bigger than a 2.5L with the striker crank

I am kinda bummed you build these awesome cars but barely show them off. I've love to see more track days, engine sounds, road events with your finished projects. It seems like we watch the project till completion and then the cars disappear into the distance. I guess with Covid we just don't get to see all those great trackdays. Would have loved to see this thing rip on the track.

[@speedacademy]

Go back and look at all the views the driving vids get. it’s abysmal compared to the builds. Its alot of effort to shoot a track or driving video and if the views arent there then we wont shoot them

I’m curious since you had the frs in the background at the end. You said you didn’t like the clutch feel of the sti, and I don’t like the clutch feel of my BRZ. I haven’t driven a STI but I’m told that the clutch action is very similar between the two. Any truth to this? Great deal on a great car!
