9:39 if you don’t want to struggle holding when assembling the rods, bolt the flywheel to the crank and set it upright. It gives you an awesome base when doing torquing
It'd have been awesome to have seen a built EJ22, EJ207, or even a 2.1L stroker build go into it, but I understand the EJ25 is a much better supported platform. Cant wait to see this thing come together!
New 2.3 the destroked motor is not new lol it’s 15 years old at least now. Maybe iag makes it but honestly it ain’t shit untill it has 4mm longer rods and 83mm stroker pistons. Then you have made an actual difference in ratios.
This was a very satisfying video to watch. Didn’t realize you were shooting for driving this on an actual track! Really stoked to see that content, been an avid sim racer for years and have always wanted to see you track some cars outside the drag strip. Let’s go!
Crazy to hear you were in aviation. I start flight school jan 8th. Will be flying helis in 5 years. I drive a 2004 STi, like 500ish whp. Gives me hope that I can get my STi's engine to this point and go even further beyond for at least 700whp. Also seeing you with my OTHER dream car, the white FD?? Gives me so much motivation to work my ass off.
So far amazing work. Love it. I want to request if possible at the end of your build to give us a detail cost of all the costs associated with the build. I personally am interested more specifically at your engine build. I am sure there will be others here who will be interested in those numbers so we have more accurate info of cost of build. Will be nice to dump all the money in a build but having a family with 2 little ones personally makes it impossible for me. Family goes first. I love your projects and the way you do your videos. Thank you
That geared idler timing belt pulley that runs dry sump pump is the bearing that always fails first. I hope it doesn't add more load to the bearing and fail even sooner.
That difficult part with this one is finding an optimal clearance for a dry sump. From the couple people I’ve talked to .002-.003 on this is where I should target. I’m expecting some type of revision may be made later on though
Here in the uk the 2.5s just dont hold when getting tracked at that power level, we learnt that over 10 years ago, the thinest part is the liners and too much movement from block, cracked liners and headgaskets go all the time at that power level when raced, the only block we use here is ej22 bored to a 2.35, reliable, torque and revs. Under 500flywheel the ej25 is a decent road car.
I don’t know if you’ve made your choice yet in terms of wheels for this build, but I’d highly recommend looking into Enkei NT03’s, they would look absolutely gorgeous on this car, plus they are just great wheels in general
7:59 - one time the Snap-on man pissed me off with a torque wrench issue i had. He laughed in my face and didn't help with a solution... I found out who makes the torque wrenches for Snap-on and i bought the whole set 1/4", 3/8” and 1/2" drive for less than the cost of one 1/2” drive torque wrench! Anger gets shit done. 😎
Welp went up and looked at the '15 sti,it was a total basketcase,it needed suspension,all the bushings needed replaced and thinking it had a 207 block or something,looked underneath and found out it had U20 cylinder heads. Ended up looking at a '16 sti limited not to far from that dealership,and that one was so much cleaner and looked better overall,going back up in 2 weeks to hopefully sign the paperwork and drive it home
I'm thinking of building ej205 with a 2.1 stroker, shimless buckets, sti cams, valves, and spring. I'll try to keep a budget, but i want an ej205 oem+ spec build
I can’t wait to build my engine so excited to see this engine build cause your car is gonna look so good. I’ve still got a ways to go came back from my deployment and my alt is bad 😢
Welp, this couldn't have come at a better time. Getting a new longblock and I love the ideas in this build so I'm gonna prob reference this for my build list
@Smeedia going with a rallispec longblock. Semi closed Type RA case halves and heads, but with some cosworth pistons, rallispec rods and some other fancy bits. Nothing too crazy, just wanting around 400whp
Again, proof, head studs are not needed for 500whp and below. Your previous build videos, along with, close help from Andy Williams in the u.k. , among other great people helped me make my successful first build.
I’ve been watching you for like 6 years man no way you only have 150k subs. I know you love subies man, I do too they’re great and amazing cars. But honestly if you want to get more view do some basic shit everyone watches like something with a charger or hellcat but that shit is expensive. It’ll definitely get you more views you deserve a million atleast brotha
I hate to be a Negative Nancy but please don't use a screw impact driver to tighten the screws on that back cover. Blue Loctite and an apex in a 1/4 drive socket. 🤦♂ On a positive note, Looks good man! I have been using a friend's water blast cabinet. It does wonders for aluminum parts.
Maaaaannnn you doing allllllll the stuufffff and allllllll the thingsssssss damn g unit,dry sump looks bad ass,the only thing more bling is the turbo beanie on the rx7❤
Make sure to remove the batteries whenever you store that snappy! I know more than one person that had to have theirs repaired (out of warranty) because they leaked.
This is really cool, definitely gonna save up for a dry sump, and hopefully I shouldn’t have to tune for it but I’ll talk to my tuner first. Building a high rpm big turbo ej257 for my 06 STi time attack build. I have an IAG AOS, Killer B oil pan pickup and baffle as well as the Outfront Motorsport oil pump. I’ll be interested to see how the different setups compare. Also, would I be able to run the AOS and dry sump at the same time or is it one or the other?
I opted for tighter clearance on the rings so I don’t send this engine to the moon for power. Opened the bearings a bit for 20-50 and to experiment a little with using a dry sump
I'm getting all the parts I need to rebuild my Ej22. I'm excited to get it started. Where can I get new pistons and crankshaft and valves at for my EJ22? I'm not trying to do anything crazy, I just want it to run for a long time as my daily driver.
That's cool that you were QC in the aviation industry, not many people go into it. What made you want to leave the industry? I currently work on new Gulfstreams as a certified A&P.
Tbh management at aerospace companies are all asshats. Most of them are the six sigma people who have no idea how the manufacturing lines actually work and think they know best. I butted heads with alot of them whenever they’d try to make dumb changes
It would cool to see some DirtFish laps or equivalent for real! also It would be fun to watch you start staging/tracking some of your builds or even have a dedicated! ✌👊
Would you change iag aos street version when you do a engine swap with metal contamination? Changing all oil components but wondering if I should do that also
Sick!! Love the content, I’m currently planing on moving to Hawaii and want to lift the subie what do you think the sti needs to be able to go off road?
hey tanner. was wondering what your thoughts were about balancing rotating assemblies for subarus and if you advise getting your rotating assembly balanced
@ I am thinking about it for my build and have wanted to do it for a long time. More for the added benefit of decreased wear and tear and with the coatings helping to maintain consistency
What's your opinion on the oem head bolt torque to yield procedure? I have always reused the bolts when doing head gaskets but I've had better luck using an actual ft/lb procedure instead of torquing and angles.
Tanner, can you explain how you decided your piston ring end gap amount? Is that what Manley suggests for those piston rings and horsepower? Sounds like it depends on what material the top piston ring is made out of? I've seen a few people pushing (0.020 top) and 0.025 second but with 1000 hp+ builds.
Cylinder pressure (aka boost) will be a big factor. Personally I set mine a little tighter on this engine so I do not send it to the moon like I do in most of my engines. Could I anyway, yes but the gaps a bit tight for higher boost levels. There is a formula you can use to capture a rough range for where you should gap the rings to
@@Smeedia Thanks for the advice! I've greatly appreciated all your video's. I have an 04 FXT manual. Its stock right now but i'd like to do a few mild upgrades and make it a little fun, reliable, daily driver. The stock turbo seems a little weak. I was thinking of swapping it for an STI turbo, intercooler, and running a highflow downpipe/cat. Shooting for around 280-300 hp. Currently rebuilding the engine. Planning to run Mahle 4032 pistons. Any thoughts or advice?
We are really excited to see your results with the RCM Dry Sump. Keep up the awesome work Tanner!
Appreciate the support guys and will definitely be giving you a call for some pointers when it comes to set up!
@@SmeediaWTF? I know USA dino figures are higher but Much of that comes from good fuel…..
Happy to see you building every subaru owner dream engine 👌🏻

I have a couple 207s but I have SO much EJ25 stuff it just made sense to use it 😅
What about the new 2.3 from iag
@@matthewmaca6675was cheaper for me to build a 25 vs buying one of their engines
New 2.3 the destroked motor is not new lol it’s 15 years old at least now. Maybe iag makes it but honestly it ain’t shit untill it has 4mm longer rods and 83mm stroker pistons. Then you have made an actual difference in ratios.
If I always caress my ej25 does it then become a stroker build?

I've been waiting for my RCM dry sump for my 1200whp sti being built by Turn in concepts. Block will be billet.
Big money in a billet block 🔥
It’s not just Tanner it’s Talent!
It’s art 🤌
Giving her some space to breathe!!!! It's amazing how starved the factory clearances are at the bearings.
This is kinda a test engine for me, I’ve never set up a short block for a dry sump. I’ll be using 20-50 so this one’s a learning engine 😂
Man watching this makes me want to install all these parts I have for my car :(.
Really nice work, love these simple motors but also very complex.
can’t wait to see the 2.5rs running!
Things going to Scoot 🚙 💨
cant wait for more of the 6 cylinder, that has been such a journey
That car is my flame as I am the moth
It's interesting to hear that you were in aviation, I'm also in aviation with GE aerospace and am currently driving a 2018 50th anniversary WRX.
I flew drones for 5 years and worked in QC. Definitely one of my favorite fields 🔥
Yes! T, building it to perfection 👌🏼
As perfect as we can make it 🤌
Been following you for a while now, impressive stuff you do! Love from Norway🎉

I finally got my heads to the shop last week. Rebuild in 2-3 weeks now!
Eyyyy moving right along! 🥳
Can't wait to see this run

Set the mains .0015 and the rod .002 perfect cuz the block expands and makes them bigger naturally but the rods are the ticket lol.

I really think more people should consider dry sumping their EJs. Yes its £6k+ but still cheaper than a rebuild every 6 months 🤷♂️😄

That’s the goal, I wanted to use the 27 STI more for that but it just became a pain and I got tiered of fixing the little stuff over and over again 😂
Ever thought about an ASMR engine build video? 😁
I have but there is WAY too much background noise. Pressure washers and neighbors working also
Would you change iag aos street version when you do a engine swap with metal contamination? Changing all oil components but wondering if I should do that also
You can take them apart and clean them 🫡 the tops do come off with some effort

hey tanner. was wondering what your thoughts were about balancing rotating assemblies for subarus and if you advise getting your rotating assembly balanced
What do you think of using cryo treatment on internals and thermal barriers on piston tops and skirts?
I’ve looked into it and debated it but with what I’ve seen prior it’s typically not needed for something like this for our goals
@ I am thinking about it for my build and have wanted to do it for a long time. More for the added benefit of decreased wear and tear and with the coatings helping to maintain consistency
Additionally the cost to do this seems lower than expected you just need to ship parts 100% clean and free of debris.
What's your opinion on the oem head bolt torque to yield procedure? I have always reused the bolts when doing head gaskets but I've had better luck using an actual ft/lb procedure instead of torquing and angles.

If you're gonna track it pls get it PPF'd in the front
Probably will have a companies do that for me 😅
Question, why no light oil on the con rod bolts before torqueing ?
They get coated in 5W30 before torquing
I'm pretty sure you're gonna have to take that dry sump belt back off to get the timing belt on...
He will, but its just part of the build process. Sometimes you just can't wait to see some cool shit slapped on. Its like motivation. 😂
That’s a problem for later 😂
