@@richilg1 Damn your right, I didn't think about that. Next video I will probably just let youtube do it's auto captions. Seems like it's more accurate
I really appreciate your chill vibes. Your down to earth nature make your videos uncomplicated, easy to watch and fun. I look forward to seeing your next project/adventure. Keep them coming.
Appreciate you man! Once I finish all the projects I currently have, I'm going to try to find a new space where I can spend more time doing youtube stuff vs customer cars.
@@AgatasKatkus I prefer a length of 10-20 min I think. But I meant it was a short appearance of this car. Keep doing what you are doing, it's great. Just an idea, have you ever considered streaming these repairs live?
@@JaymzSim Ok that's good to hear, that's the range I try and aim for. I think livestreaming would be cool! It's a bit hard in this space but in a new space I think it would be fun.
that’s a lovely little WRX! I love these cars but silver is honestly the ugliest colour any car could have. Especially a cool car like this! Keep doing these dude!
@Jayerbruh living in the north, where the sky and the road are the same grey colour, these silver cars just disappear. It takes away from them being special because they become somewhat invisible. A bold red or, in this case, blue, would make all the difference. Grey silver is fine on a Mercedes A Class, for the elderly gentleman who barely remembers what the two pedals do, not a car as fun as a WRX.
That's part of why I didn't really want to keep it! I do love silver on some of my BMW's but this car in blue would be so much more fun. It's not a widebody either so someone else can enjoy her!
Appreciate that! Eventually the videos will get better, I just need to flip some stuff and save some money to be able to dedicate more time to youtube since I almost lose money doing it after everything lol
Thanks! I appreciate you watching! Do you think you would find it more entertaining if I was more educational at some points? Or gave more info/insight into things?
@@AgatasKatkus I thought everything was just fine how you were explaining it and showing it on video. No need to change anything. The background music was also not too loud, catchy, or annoying. You also weren't at a super high or fake energy level like many other creators. It was nice to see you give an older car a chance. New car prices have gotten out of hand for no apparent reason. I think there's a big potential viewer base for that at the moment, because people are getting burnt out from watching all these videos on expensive new cars, that really don't do much different.
Nice Soobie! Thanks for the new video! How about a quick tour of your compound? It looks like you have a lot of resources within arms reach. I’m a little jealous of your two post 😜.
The compound has less than it may appear! I split this space with a friend. I am hoping to get my own space in the next couple months though! The two post is awesome to have. I got it used for $1200. Worth every penny.
Amazing as always! Have you ever thought about making a video about yourself? For example, where did you acquire all of these impressive mechanical skills?
I think eventually that would be a cool one to make! Right now I have 3 new projects that have never been seen on the channel and 2 old projects I need to finish. So maybe after all those are done I can make it?
I think that breaker bar trick is going to save my day next week, have to do a swap on my project next week and was dreading having to either remove the rad too or buy a right angle impact.
I would've rather used a right angle impact, maybe next year I will invest in one. These Chinese replacements for Subaru radios are so easy to install it takes me less than a minute to change them out. I'm hoping to dedicate more time to the videos next year so I can spend more time making these cars perfect. It would've been cool to fix the paint, windshield, interior, ect.
Yesssssiirrrr! If it was a wide body I probably would’ve kept it lol. I was still super happy with it. The bug eye that I got in the deal is what I’m really excited for
Recently bought a one owner auto ggb wrx with an oil starved engine for $800. I got a clean long block for $2000. Changed out some of the seals, dropped it in, and sold it for $5500. GG/GD wrxs are too cool, id like to get one for myself in a manual.
That’s awesome man! The bug eye is going to be more work and I have a forester that will be in the next video! If you like Subarus I’m going through a faze right now lol
Nice car, kind of in the price range where i buy my shit boxes in. Question, is it posible to delete the subtitles, youtube can generate them bij itself and i have the choice to put it off and on. Greets from the netherlands, like your channel!
The best price range for shit boxes for sure 🤘 the next videos onward I will not put subtitles in. They just do such a bad job lol. Appreciate you watching! Thank you!
I might be down to work on some of the really old Hondas and put a sport bike engine in them. I like the K series as well and would love to swap something, but honestly never been a huge fan of Hondas. Mainly because I like RWD stuff. It would cool to give one a shot though!
Be very careful using the breaker bar on the crank. I tried that on a Subaru Legacy, similar engine, and it snapped the bolt off in the end of the crankshaft. It was an absolute nightmare to get the bolt out after that. 🤦🏼♂️
That's insane dude! I've done this more times than I can remember without a problem. Was your bolt super corroded or something? I'm just wondering if you put an impact gun on it if the same thing would've happened? I would be so broken if that happened to me.
@ The only thing I can think of is the bolt had been cross threaded being put in or as you say really rusty, I could not undo it with a 3ft breaker bar, which is why I tried the same method you used.
@@AgatasKatkus nope, didn’t get it out. The bolt seemed to be hardened as I could not drill it. I won’t tell you how I “fixed it” but I sold it cheap not long after 🤦🏼♂️
subaru being unreliable is a myth. Look into 2.5gts same drivetrain as wrx/sti and they last 250,000 miles often. Just don't slame ur car with launches from 0 and do your oil changes your fine. If buy a cheap 2.5gt (preferably a 2.5gt) off of facebook marketplace, and voila, put coilovers on it and you turn better then sti's/wrx's and your car is more likely to not have been beat on, you have practically the same speed, and your safe to build to 300whp for under $2-3k in supporting mods. Plus they are ungodly cheap for what they are. Recently got a manual 2.5gt limited for $600 thats mostly stock, fixed minor issues for under $200 and voila I have one hell of a car that pulls great (cold air intake other small things + 20 degrees out atm) , has been nothing but reliable, if your looking for a subaru Id suggest buying a subaru legacy 2.5gt, if you can find a clean one for sale. Chances are they were not wrx level abused, and are still one hell of a car. Definitely worth buying a 2.5gt if you can find one, they are probably one of the most underrated cars I've seen. Good torque all around, turbo noise is great if you have a nice blowoff valve, cold weather your probably doing a 13 something quarter mile. Or if you like pain and torture do the smartest route of buying a nice no rust shell of your chosen subaru chasis and buy a very low mileage engine and make a comprehensive expensive build.
Nice!!! wow an 09, that's a excellent car for cheap! EEK that intake was in the wrong place! That timing belt was so bad! you got it right before explosion! those poor motor mounts too, how the heck did that happen? Arizona sun bake them? (WRX's are fun in the winter! but they do tend to rust along the wheel wells, thin paint, I had a 95 STi Wagon 300awhp RHD for many winters, it was so light that it didn't get much traction even with snow tires, the E61 is so much fat-asser, makes the traction!) I've had a Bugeye wagon 5speed for a few years now that I haven't had time to finish and sell, it almost done though and up for sale, look forward to the next one!
Yeah I was pretty stoked when this guy said he would sell me this one and the bugeye for $1500. She was holding on for dear life though, I can't believe I drove this thing back an hour without it giving up lol. Dude a GC8 sti is legendary! I'm so jealous they didn't sell them here! You will enjoy the bugeye video, I think I will work on that one after new years. I bought a 09 forester to do a video on why you should buy a cheap Subaru to go off-roading with and it hasn't gone well lol. So that's the next video.
@@AgatasKatkus Thats a great deal on two cars! that must have been super sketch on the way home with no motor mounts, and the diff flopping around!! Oh the 95, it had two wings! I had a tune from a guy who did EJ20 swaps into old RS cars as I remember, came with the quite laggy, but large 16g, that car had like 90hp off of boost, but sheesh it pulled hard (when it worked eventually) intercooler sprayer too!! I had a 93 WRX as well imported with like 30,000miles on it, it ripped, time capsule! 3 Legacy Twin-turbos as well over the years, a properly complex solution to turbo lag! I saw often those off-road Subarus in the US driven by the youngsters, that should be a popular video when you get it done! Forester Turbo\Autos were one of the cheapest imports here for a while, every 18yr old had a thunder cannon and cut springs on it, until they all blew up. A Teen bought my STi and blew the motor a month later, of course. My 3000GT VR4 as well, the super young guy blew the motor a month later, I was pretty furious. Nothing worse then seeing a car you worked so hard to restore, blown up after you sold it! Shipping has 2x from Japan now, and customs 2x as well, so JDM imports not the value they used to be, Subaru's were like 4000$ Canadian all in for a 70,000k Mint mobile, sigh. (Videos on my channel of some of the cars)
found a 2007 impreza that says it had a 370hp 2.0l gas engine in it, and it has "sti" stickers on it and the dealer wants 9.8k€ for it, idk, is it what it says it is? even if it is, would it be worth it? idk...
Idk man you always gotta be careful with Subarus. They will will all eventually "Blow up" at some point. Especially if they have been modified. Even if you do your own work parts can get really expensive really fast
@AgatasKatkus thanks man, i was gonna consider buying this as a daily fun car, i dont want a german car because of basically same thing as the subaru's issues you told me about, really an eye opener, thanks a ton
@ I mean honestly I do love Subarus and if you find one that has been maintained and not messed with a bunch of aftermarket stuff they can be fairly reliable. If you learn to work on it yourself it will always be worth it if you can fix it
@AgatasKatkus im looking to get a reliable first car as a car guy, its kinda hard because i have the hype of all these cars but still have to keep it realistic , so when i found the impreza, i had this question mark

Appreciate that! I have a lot of experience but even then I get a challenge every once and a while that makes me question my sanity lol
this video is going to bang bro! glad to be part of the first 117 views!
I hope so! Glad your here!
that’s a lovely little WRX! I love these cars but silver is honestly the ugliest colour any car could have. Especially a cool car like this! Keep doing these dude!
Lmao j think the opposite it's my fav colour on a wrx
@Jayerbruh living in the north, where the sky and the road are the same grey colour, these silver cars just disappear. It takes away from them being special because they become somewhat invisible. A bold red or, in this case, blue, would make all the difference.

Solid work and a great find! You took care of all the basics!
Thanks! Wait till the bugeye wrx! That one is going to be more fun!
Rock on man. Fun little car to buzz around in.
