4:00 yes its an ej25, the 2.5 is the displacement of the engine (2.5 liters). also funny story my dad has an 01’ impreza that sat for a solid 6-7 years (just like your coworker) in a storage shed, we just got her out and running.
Most the time all cars that have been sitting a while need is a battery and a fuel pump depends how long its been sitting. Love my 2.5rs. Doing an sti swap soon.
EJ25's were used in the STi's, and are still used in STi's to this day. WRX's always had a 2.0L engine (EJ20). I Love these 2.5RS's, and clean ones are getting expensive, especially a coupe with a manual trans. Nice find!
Yo! If you still have this, remove the entire air box assembly and replace it with a k&n cone filter. Put it directly on the throttle body. It sounds super mad! I did this to mine back in the day
Nice buy, those are like the only 2 door subarus ever made. I wouldn't be capable of wrecking it and I'm not even a big subie fan. You should do a timing belt fyi! And expect to pay 2 times the cost of a dsm timing job except with out the oem components.
i had the same blue 2 door. yours could worth lot of money one day cuz that the last model 2 door impreza. they are getting harder to find now. i still miss mine
Need to get into ice racing during the winter in Minnesota. Nice find and they are fun cars. Easy to get them to corner great and parts are still plentiful due to lots in common with the 2000-2007 WRX wagon. Love my 2000 2.5rs couple and I'm sure you'll love it too. One thing, look into the PRM intake for it or research Ganzflo Intake. I have tried running with the intake like you had yours and the intake temps were consistently 10-20 degrees higher than stock intake at 65-70mph. Intake temps well over 115 degrees at idle in 65 degree ambient without and 85-90 with stock intake.
I originally only watched for the eclipse but I just like watching anything you put out now, entertaining as always and great personality. Keep it up dude. (Also the bloopers at the end were hilarious)
All I could think about was you prolly should’ve worn a respirator during the interior cleaning. lol You’re killing it tho man. Love the channel and everything you’ve done with it!
What a classic love this one, those motor mounts deff need some attention, you might keep on breaking your flex pipes if you don’t fix the mounts ASAP.
Started watching your channel because of your eclipse! Love your content and will now continue watching for the Subaru! Also I'm originally from AZ and grew up in MN about 45 minutes from Fergus Falls! (Alexandria area). Just thought it was wired. It's like we did the opposite! 😆
The way you said sometimes you guys are mean got me dead lol I love the into lol go all out with headers you will love the sound ! I personally love the unequal length headers on the Subarus
Thanks for the kind words and input John! I will pry drop the rear catback section as that is where the leak is and see how it sounds and go from there. Trying to keep this one super budget! 🙃👍
I like your content but speaking of mean, you were damn mean to me when I was just trying to help in a prior video about the 4g63, was just spreading light that it was made longer which is great for us enthusiasts! Great video and keep it up!
Sorry man. The few ruin for the many. If I come off angry and defensive it’s not you. It’s other people that have commented and made me that way. Let’s start over 🤝😊
I didn't realize you had that much hate, well least you're doing something right. Dope purchase! I wouldn't be surprised if you end up with a bike next. Lol.
@@therealjessescheel You sound like me with my lady friend, she don't want me to get a bike. I've been looking at those Honda CBR600's and GSXR600. I just want to get it just to say I rode a bike in my lifetime. Lol.
I’ve had a friend or two dump their bikes so it’s turned me off. The Honda’s seem to have more power then what they are rated. I dig the looks of the yamahas though!
@@therealjessescheel Yeah I'm leaning towards a Honda, the Yamaha seems more geared toward track use, and Suzuki is like the cheaper of the two. I've watched videos and read articles and the information I've gathered it's literally like this Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki.
@@therealjessescheel I've been looking up and down the east coast to find one but I still have high hopes. if that doesn't work out I'll find a cheap one in the u.k and import it over to the states
I’m pretty sure those are rare and desirable maybe restoring it or selling it to a Subaru enthusiast to bring it back to its original glory would be a better idea. Idk have fun
Damn that car looks like a good deal! I never like Subaru to much but if I ever got one it would 100% be the 90s 2.5rs :) super cool classic cars. Also that detail was really good I can't believe it came out so nice!!!
Man I do not know the Europe market at all sorry. If the engine ever goes on it or something stay in touch. I just bought it cause it was cheap I am not necessarily in love with it. 😬🙃
@@therealjessescheel Haha no problem, i've been keeping an eye out on the market for about a year now, hard to find them, ill definitely be sure to stay in touch, awesome channel with nice uploads, i see u put hard work in you video's, u have earned yourself another sub and like my dude, because we have the same name! xD
Love the vids, especially the DSM vids. I have a stock 99 2nd gen eclipse gs, so I really do appreciate when you do in depth tutorials on it keep em coming!
Fair to say but they are business write offs for me and I can sell either today for minimal loss or maybe even a small gain. To me they are better then buying a new corvette, driving it off the lot and instantly losing $20k you know?
@@therealjessescheel I'm not talking about depreciation. I'm talking about the endless bucket of money that these cars can suck out of you. I for one agree, other than this year, you would lose money on a new car.
4:00 yes its an ej25, the 2.5 is the displacement of the engine (2.5 liters). also funny story my dad has an 01’ impreza that sat for a solid 6-7 years (just like your coworker) in a storage shed, we just got her out and running.
Thats awesome! 😎👍
Man idk what they talking about I love the intros, and the buy it twice thing is smart. Joey just doesn’t have his money up lmao
Thanks for the re assurance I appreciate it! ☺️👍🏼
4WD drifting in the snow is the best. And that was an amazing transformation after you got her cleaned up
Looking forward to the snow for once! ❄️😎
This is one of the few car channels I watch because of the energy you put out
Thanks for the love I appreciate you watching! ☺️👍🏼
One of my favorite automotive channels right here! Love your choice of cars.
Glad you like them and thanks for the kind words! 😎👍🙌
Most the time all cars that have been sitting a while need is a battery and a fuel pump depends how long its been sitting. Love my 2.5rs. Doing an sti swap soon.
Right on man! That will be a sweet ride!

Thanks for the input Tony! I appreciate the knowledge 👊🏼☺️
So interesting to see you on the DSM pages and on here Tony 😂😂😂
@@ThatMaximaKid I'm everywhere!
Yo! If you still have this, remove the entire air box assembly and replace it with a k&n cone filter. Put it directly on the throttle body. It sounds super mad! I did this to mine back in the day
Wow 1000 for that is an absolute steal. Hopefully I can snag one of these (that isn't rusted to all hell) for my 1st car.
Would make an awesome first car!
would the 3.0 subaru engine fit in there?
Jesse at this point you own all my dream cars 😭. Still fixing up my 350 but I'm here for all the content !
Glad your liking the cars and the channel! I will try and get you as much useful information as possible on them!
Nice buy, those are like the only 2 door subarus ever made. I wouldn't be capable of wrecking it and I'm not even a big subie fan. You should do a timing belt fyi! And expect to pay 2 times the cost of a dsm timing job except with out the oem components.
Thanks Rob! If the timing belt goes I’ll pry just let the car go or it can sit and wait for the channel to get bigger. Maybe someday I can swap it. 🤙🏼
Wow you did a fantastic job of cleaning that car it looks great!
Thank you! ☺️👍🏼
i had the same blue 2 door. yours could worth lot of money one day cuz that the last model 2 door impreza. they are getting harder to find now. i still miss mine
I sold it 😬
I own one a 2002 subaru impreza nd i live in Minnesota Minneapolis 2.5 they are nice im planning to get turbo in mine i hope everything goes well
🙂👍
Awesome car! Night and day difference after you cleaned it up.
Definitely! 😎👍
Probably a better intake you don't need dirt in the motor I got a 2.5 its fun car
Why would dirt get in the motor when there is a filter there?
@@therealjessescheel I thought you took it off I didn't see one my fault sorry
Yeah the filter is inside the air box. I just took off some cheap elbow that didn’t make a lot of sense. ☺️👍🏼
Sweet purchase in my opinion. Keep bringing content about it! Im interested in how she will be in the future.
Keep up the great content man
Thank you for watching and for the kind words! I’ll keep the videos coming. 👍🏼

Good stuff. Thanks for the heads up. I pry shouldn’t have but I did sell that car when I left MN this past summer. 😔
I'm jealous lol such great buy!
I'm trying to snatch one up and make it beautiful
I originally only watched for the eclipse but I just like watching anything you put out now, entertaining as always and great personality. Keep it up dude. (Also the bloopers at the end were hilarious)
Glad you are enjoying all the contact! I appreciate you watching and I will keep the bloopers rolling! ☺️👍🏼
Sick car man, I’d remove all the traction control and safety controls (keep abs), if ur gonna do the fun stuff. I’m pretty sure there’s ways
Good work, keep up the good work and your channel will grow insanely fast
Appreciate it! Thanks for the support and kind words Dylan!
All I could think about was you prolly should’ve worn a respirator during the interior cleaning. lol
You’re killing it tho man. Love the channel and everything you’ve done with it!
I was looking for my respirator but couldn’t find it. Appreciate you watching man! ☺️👍🏼
Got mines for $1300 from a old dude. It was still good but just needed a wash and fluids
You should make videos on cleaning dirty cars too you real great at it
Thanks for the tip Chris! I did with my Eclipse but it didn't do to well. I will keep trying though!
Lol it looked so good after the cleaning and detail. Then you went and got her dirty again, smh. The bloopers at the end, haha!
Glad you liked it!! 😎👍
What a classic love this one, those motor mounts deff need some attention, you might keep on breaking your flex pipes if you don’t fix the mounts ASAP.
Glad you like it! 😎👍
The Stranger Things Theme Song fits this video perfectly. Good luck with the purchase.
Glad you liked it! ☺️👍🏼
I want to have this same gen Impreza so bad but it’s hard to find for sale this cheap
I’m from Saint Paul Minnesota nice video
MN bros! 👊😎

That’s awesome! I was just in Alexandria the other day! Love what they are doing there! Thanks for watching!!! ☺️👍🏼
i'm about to get my hands on one for $1400!!
If you’re talking about the one on Facebook marketplace it’s a scam. Hopefully it’s a different one 👍🏼
Wow, Minnesota winters must be brutal.
You have no idea 🙃
God damn I want that vehicle
I ended up selling it. It was pretty cool.
@@therealjessescheel I’m trying to look for one but the closest one near me is a salvaged title then the rest are way out of state
The way you said sometimes you guys are mean got me dead lol I love the into lol go all out with headers you will love the sound ! I personally love the unequal length headers on the Subarus
Thanks for the kind words and input John! I will pry drop the rear catback section as that is where the leak is and see how it sounds and go from there. Trying to keep this one super budget! 🙃👍
@@therealjessescheel keep the good money for the eclipse 😂I love that your bringing something new for us to watch thanks ! Keep up the hard work

Let’s start over 🤝😊
@@therealjessescheel Fo sho! Excellent job on cleaning up the car!
🙏🏼☺️👍🏼
Everytime I see those 2.5RS wheels they remind me of Evo 8 Enkeis lol
For sure! Very similar!
the air filter inside that car should be changed if it has one
I sold it awhile back
That thing is nice 😦 congrats 🥳
Thanks man I appreciate you watching! 😎👍
This ain't but The eclipse is a frivolous money blow 😁
I have been offered $15k for it. you sure?
I didn't realize you had that much hate, well least you're doing something right. Dope purchase! I wouldn't be surprised if you end up with a bike next. Lol.
I do look at the Harley v rod night rods occasionally. Doubt the wife would ok the bike though. 🤙🏼

How did you get that for 1grand 😭 someone is selling for five grand in near me in cali
Had some rust on it. Was in MN its whole life.
The car choice, and cleaning has earned you a new sub! Keep it coming
Welcome to the party Alex! Thanks for the kind words! 😎👍
Where can I get one at that price im desperate I've been searching for a cheap 2.5 rs for months but no results
Just being honest you pry won’t find one cheap. My scenario was like the perfect storm.
@@therealjessescheel I've been looking up and down the east coast to find one but I still have high hopes. if that doesn't work out I'll find a cheap one in the u.k and import it over to the states
Oh yeah whats the song called around 8:40?
ELFL - Temple of Runha 👍
@@therealjessescheel Thanks man!
I’m pretty sure those are rare and desirable maybe restoring it or selling it to a Subaru enthusiast to bring it back to its original glory would be a better idea. Idk have fun
I’m open to offers ☺️
It was worth so much more then 1000, especially because it's a 2dr.
It was a good deal. I sold it though
@@therealjessescheel How much did you sell it for if you dont mind me asking?
Wait wait wait.... Subawho?
Subaru! 🙃
where can buy 2000 SUBARU IMPREZA 2.5 RS i never seen on the market
We got them here in the USA. 🙂👍
Damn that car looks like a good deal! I never like Subaru to much but if I ever got one it would 100% be the 90s 2.5rs :) super cool classic cars. Also that detail was really good I can't believe it came out so nice!!!
Glad you liked it man! Its a sweet car just way to slow. ☹
Wow A Subaru Impreza 2.5RS Coupe, i cant find these in Europe anywhere, any advice, i'd love to get myself one someday!
Man I do not know the Europe market at all sorry. If the engine ever goes on it or something stay in touch. I just bought it cause it was cheap I am not necessarily in love with it. 😬🙃
@@therealjessescheel Haha no problem, i've been keeping an eye out on the market for about a year now, hard to find them, ill definitely be sure to stay in touch, awesome channel with nice uploads, i see u put hard work in you video's, u have earned yourself another sub and like my dude, because we have the same name! xD
Any idea where to look the for in US? No problem with shipping to Europe, just need good coupe body
Damn I payed 8k For a bucket thats clean 😳
Pretty much the going rate.
Are this turbo??
No it is not.
If you choose to sell it please hmu !!! I would love this car for the rest of my life
Bro what the hell, how you find these sweet deals!
Thanks man! Just lucky I guess and knew the owner. 🙃
Love the vids, especially the DSM vids. I have a stock 99 2nd gen eclipse gs, so I really do appreciate when you do in depth tutorials on it keep em coming!
Will do man! Should be back in AZ end of next week and planning some DSM stuff 👍🏼
I did too 😭
Bought a 2000 2.5 rs for $1000 I mean
You really couldn’t clean it up at all before shooting?
Watch the whole video before commenting
Car went from 1k to 8k 😂
🙃👍
"I don't like to blow money." buys a gsx and a 2.5 rs. Are you sure?
Fair to say but they are business write offs for me and I can sell either today for minimal loss or maybe even a small gain. To me they are better then buying a new corvette, driving it off the lot and instantly losing $20k you know?
@@therealjessescheel I'm not talking about depreciation. I'm talking about the endless bucket of money that these cars can suck out of you. I for one agree, other than this year, you would lose money on a new car.
For sure I hear ya. If I wasn’t trying to build a RUclips channel I would for sure not own them all as it makes no financial sense.
