Nice simply build.. BUT..... if you really want it to handle, yes tires are #1 , BUT a good performance anti sway bar will do FAR more then the springs will do as far as handling. Yes the springs will lower it a bit but you will notice a smooth ride like stock yet handle better then the springs, if you go with the sway bar If you are going for the road race track.. #1 tires.. #2 performance anti sway bars.. For looks go springs if u have to pick one or the other, but anti sway bars are usually not to crazy expensive. Edit: GLAD TO SEE you did sway bars at the end of the video....In My 25 years of racingexperience road racing/ stage rally (for road racing, go anti sway bars before springs if u have to choose one fo... Stage rally (if you are going rally racing you do NOT want performance anti sway bars off road)

Another "bonus mod" you can use is a high quality weighted shift knob. Makes a big difference for the shifting experience. Also, for an STI mud flaps make a whole lot of sense in the "kit" category.
@MrBrander3 жыл бұрын
True. The shifter knob makes all the difference. Especially if you change the shaft too. I had my shifter knob changed to a smaller one on my previous car by the previous owner and he also had removed the bulky foamy plasticy body of that shifter so there was just a small straight metal stick and a small knob in the end of it. It made me want to change the gears constantly. It felt so good when there was just that small metal stick with small shifter knob.

It's worth mentioning that Subaru uses a MAF system and they use hypereutectic pistons with a very high silicon level meaning the pistons are strong but susceptible to fracturing more than other options. Installing an intake with no tune can cause the car to run lean inducing knock which because of the high silicon count can mean the shockwave can shatter your ring lands. Always tune your Subaru for your mods. Never use bolt ons without a tune

3:05 - You guys actually want to get an impact wrench*, dont make the rookie mistake of ordering an impact driver for removing stubborn wheel nuts and the like

What's the issue with a driver?

@@PheonixRise666 Drivers are usually made for driving in screws and the like, they transfer their torque through a 1/4-inch hex collet that accepts 1/4-inch hex shank bits. Impact wrenches typically use a square drive (at least 3/8in, usually 1/2 in) that you attach a socket to...impact wrenches usually have more torque unless theyre like extremely compact models, whereas those tiny 1/4in hex collets used with drivers usually fail in high torque applications (think of all that torque being transfered through a longer thinner piece of metal) and also require adapters to attach a socket to, but are absolutely fine for light duty applications

I think I made that mistake but worked out fine with the socket attachment, granted I just did 2 front shocks

@@arcanevoid9199 I've had about 10,000 miles out of my last two sets. Bearing in mind I have to be careful in first, second and third not to spin the rears up, it's surprising that the fronts don't last much longer than the rears. I'd say that's pretty good mileage for a performance tyre.

@@arcanevoid9199 the Michelins also seem to have much less road noise than similar performance-level tires. That is what justified the cost for me when I got PSS for my 2005 STI. That thing has hardly any sound deadening, so the reduction in road noise compared to stuff like Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric or Hankook RS-3 for example, was _very_ noticeable, despite having similar dry grip and slightly better wet grip.

Seriously have to jump in here and get my, “ Hey Ryobi” to read this!, these tools such as ratchets and grinders that have the battery at 90 degrees to the skin, needs alterations, I’d like to see them in a side mount or angled as the battery in some cases stands out taller than the socket or grinding disc’s and makes it hard to get then close to the work

As someone who drives an STI, I find it absolutely criminal that you didn't get a short shifter and bushings. STI has plenty of slop in the gear shift.

I’ve not had an STI but have had a Liberty GT and a Forester XT and first mods for me are group N engine and gearbox mounts, trans bushings and short shifter. 100% better. I can’t believe how terrible it is from factory.

Brings me back to 2003 when I bought my WRX Wagon and started to do mods, many of which I had to make myself. Back then, Cobb had just introduced their Accessport, which I didn’t end up getting and regret not spending the money then. The thing I ended up realizing is that for the money spent on improving performance of the Subaru, I could instead buy a higher performance car (used), although the awd of my WRX wagon was so fun in the rain, ice and snow, something I’ve not been able to enjoy since I sold the Subie in 2008.
