Jay R your detailing videos are SO satisfying. This video is preventing me from going nuts during this freaking quarantine. Happy to see when one of my favorite car RUclipsrs post videos. So clean man 👌.
Hey I have the same engine and have fried ignition coils with medium pressure water. My builder suggested that you NEVER use high pressure water and to be careful around the coils
I cant wait to start working & get money so i can clean my car like you ! You make me wanna clean my car everyday! I love your videos its a satisfying to watch & relaxing! Everything done right!! Hope to see your car in person one day!
Yo pro tip from a Subaru owner, I found when I did this process I have to use a air gun to dry because sitting water on the bolts on the bottom of the car wash will start to make a surface rust. When I saw this I wanted to cry haha but it’s just a small thing to address. Just be cautious with sitting water :(
Glad I saw this video. Less intimidating after you blasted the alternator 😂 just found the hyper dressing on sale at autozone. Definitely worth it. Did the sunroof rubber trim with it as well. Thanks man!
Anyone else notice it says engine baby in the thumbnail or just me? Great video though, I recently made this video on my channel for cleaning Evo X engine bays and was basically the same process you used here
Man you braver than me I can honestly admit I do get skiddish spraying around the electronics, connectors, fuse box, hid ballast, etc. But then again I'm rocking the 02 bugeye and stuff isn't as fresh and sealed as yours but still nonetheless I keep it spotless. Just cover my air filter as well as my electric stuff. But good stuff my dude.
You should do a video on how to wash and care for your car care products. Sounds dumb but could be informative for guys looking to take detailing more seriously.
Great stuff as always Jay R! i always wondered if i should spray simple green all over and just hose it down! especially all those coolant i spilled doing an AOS install! this is a confidence booster! hahaha
Being clean is a sign of spiritual purity or goodness apparently. So if indeed cleanliness is next to Godliness you are truly in rarified company 😇🤣. Nice tips I will keep them in mind. Heaven knows being ultra clean 🧼 is a "critical" thing now, why not for the engine bay too. A lot of us have the "mandated" spare time now!
Great video I’m going to clean my engine bay soon and Do you have a link for under bonnet cover because I cannot find the one because I really want to get ride of the felt because it looks ugly
Jeez, these videos are just so well done. By far best Subaru content out there. I’m loving the longer videos. Would love an asmr exhaust video like your asmr detailing video
Excellent video. I’m in Canada and I like to use a light degreaser for my engine bay with a higher focus on the radiator/front mount intake area(where most of the toad spray goes). Question, would you consider heavier gauge sway bars and endlinks? I know you have coil overs but I notice most overlook the sway bars. They make a huge difference.
I was wandering if using a leaf blower to dry engine bay a good idea? I dont like using dressing on my engine bay. Just wanna clean it with some cleaning base solvent then wash it off.
Everything there is designed to get wet. You would be surprised to see how soaked everything in there gets just from driving in the rain. The wheel wells and underbody are sealed off but plenty of water passes through the radiator. The fan slings it all over.
Nice my engine bay looks like death from having to spray everything to keep rabbits away from destroying my wiring since already had to fix a few wires on the car so just accepted that it will always look like crap until I get garage
Great video! What pressure washer so you have? Looking to start a channel about my wrx whenever I’m allowed to leave from this deployment and finally get home. Take care and keep up the great content!
This may be a dumb question but I can wash my wrx engine bay even with the top mount intercooler? Is the water gonna pool or increases risk of getting in the engine?
Please normalize your audio. I have to turn volume way up to hear you speak and then way down during parts w/ music. Otherwise great videos, I just hate blasting my neighbors with mega loud music when the scene cuts.
Just curious, what intake your using? 🤔 I just parked up a 2020 sti. Looking to do a small performance change. Any suggestions before grabbing an intake. I already put my HKS cat back exhaust that I was using on my 17 wrx on.
If you do a intake, you'll need a tune, so your little performance change will be much more costly ^__~ ~ A popular choice is the Cobb Intake since you can use there OTS tune by buying the access-port and flashing to stage 1+....however you will lose your I S S+ throttle response and the pedal will feel more like between I & S. I'd just keep it stock personally since the stock intake is very good. ^__^
The Bob Ross of WRXs here with that brush
Jay R your detailing videos are SO satisfying. This video is preventing me from going nuts during this freaking quarantine. Happy to see when one of my favorite car RUclipsrs post videos. So clean man 👌.
Thxs man, I live on a farm, my wrx sees a lot of mud and dust 😊 as I fly past trucks on the gravel roads
I cleaned my engine bay myself after watching your video I felt confident enough to do it! Thanks a lot :)
If car shows were focused more on attention to detail than wild kits and bolt ons, you would be top 3 for sure!
Hey I have the same engine and have fried ignition coils with medium pressure water. My builder suggested that you NEVER use high pressure water and to be careful around the coils
Oh noo. Still dropped something when taking the shroud off! 🤦🏽♂️ lol. Thanks for the vid, man! Love it.
Please send a link to where you got that hydronic lift
Don't look in my engine bay.......
lets see it in the next vid :D
You should also do an engine bay cleaning on your sti.
That extra spray on the alternator 😂
😂Yeah, I had to...people freak out when you spray the alternator or battery with water.
My WRX Channel battery ok. But not alternator , starter & electric box (fuse box, ecu or sensor).
3:04 “sometimes side pieces get in the way of life, so you just gotta get them out the way” 💀
your car is a beautiful piece of art
YES the best thing ever, I’m so late to this, but I’ve been so demotivated on getting this car!!! Because of work and this whole covid-19 problem.
I cant wait to start working & get money so i can clean my car like you ! You make me wanna clean my car everyday! I love your videos its a satisfying to watch & relaxing! Everything done right!! Hope to see your car in person one day!
Been cleaning mine by hand but knowing what you use and using a pressure washer helps a lot Thank you!
2023. If you have all the confidence to do that on an STI. Then it's all good for the Rest of the Subaru line up of vehicles.
Man Im loving these frequent uploads. Keep the good work.

Sometimes side pieces get in the way of life 🤣 clever man.
I can appreciate a good detailing 💎
Been waiting for this for a minute! So satisfying, thanks for this! 👌🏻👏🏻
Glad I saw this video. Less intimidating after you blasted the alternator 😂 just found the hyper dressing on sale at autozone. Definitely worth it. Did the sunroof rubber trim with it as well. Thanks man!
So everything under the hood can get wet except the filter?
I was gonna ask that, I keep hearing cover the battery and the alternator but then others don’t?
same lol
Nice 80s music 😎
Anyone else notice it says engine baby in the thumbnail or just me?
Great video though, I recently made this video on my channel for cleaning Evo X engine bays and was basically the same process you used here

2:59 was waiting for that ahaha
Yo what is that car jack?
Great result. Love a clean engine bay
Yes !! . Just got my New battery and awaiting new battery tray. Thanks for videos and part feedback
battery and tray twins. 🤙🏽
Thanks to you I was able to confidently clean my engine bay lol keep up the great videos!
Nice, wish my engine bay was this pristine. =(
You should do a video on how to wash and care for your car care products. Sounds dumb but could be informative for guys looking to take detailing more seriously.
Lookin good bud. 💯 makes me wanna do mine now
Great video 👍 man are you eating lumpia? One of my favorites. Lucky guy. Take care and stay safe. Great attention to detail video.
What’s the purpose of the fender shrouds?
Lol the thumbnail says "How I clean my engine baby"
Secret Label maybe for clickbait 🤣
Thanks a lot for the info
That spring roll tho.
SO CLEAN!! Very nice - thanks for the video and tips!
Great stuff as always Jay R! i always wondered if i should spray simple green all over and just hose it down! especially all those coolant i spilled doing an AOS install! this is a confidence booster! hahaha
Yes, great timing. I really need to clean my bay.
Man, I can't wait until I have my own house. Living in an apartment is so limited since you can't really work on your car properly.

On the market for a pressure washer what's do you use and can you do a review on the modes that you use etc?
I have a 2018 wrx and my battery doesn’t have the positive cover like the ej motors do. How would I prevent damage to the battery without removing it?
Great video I’m going to clean my engine bay soon and Do you have a link for under bonnet cover because I cannot find the one because I really want to get ride of the felt because it looks ugly
Here's the link to the one I have....visracing.com/i-30498955-carbon-fiber-hood-vs-2-style-for-subaru-wrx-4dr-2015-2020.html
My WRX Channel thank you 😊
Jeez, these videos are just so well done. By far best Subaru content out there. I’m loving the longer videos. Would love an asmr exhaust video like your asmr detailing video
What’s your wheel specs, tires too
When you say all propose cleaner... green soap work? 😂
I want to do this but I’m afraid to hose down the engine bay
Excellent video. I’m in Canada and I like to use a light degreaser for my engine bay with a higher focus on the radiator/front mount intake area(where most of the toad spray goes).
Question, would you consider heavier gauge sway bars and endlinks? I know you have coil overs but I notice most overlook the sway bars. They make a huge difference.
What power washer are you using? Sounds electric and I need one!
Got it on sale at Lowe’s. I can’t remember the exact model though.
My WRX Channel no worries! Thanks for the reply, I’m gonna check them out
I was wandering if using a leaf blower to dry engine bay a good idea? I dont like using dressing on my engine bay. Just wanna clean it with some cleaning base solvent then wash it off.
It shouldn't be an issue at all.
What’s the brand of the cleaner my dude? That’s important, is the alternator and battery supposta get covered?
You saw my comment on subispeed's video and made this video for me lmao
Tasty engine bay
What specs are your nt03s man ☹ looks really really good. I heard most nt03s doesnt clear our brembos
Should you worry about electrical component damage and corrosion from spraying water in the engine bay?
Everything there is designed to get wet. You would be surprised to see how soaked everything in there gets just from driving in the rain. The wheel wells and underbody are sealed off but plenty of water passes through the radiator. The fan slings it all over.
That Lumpia you eating in the beginning of video?
Nice my engine bay looks like death from having to spray everything to keep rabbits away from destroying my wiring since already had to fix a few wires on the car so just accepted that it will always look like crap until I get garage
Looking sharp!
Hey whats the weight difference of those wheels compare to stock wheels?
Great video! What pressure washer so you have? Looking to start a channel about my wrx whenever I’m allowed to leave from this deployment and finally get home. Take care and keep up the great content!
I can’t remember the exact model, but it’s a Greenworks model from Lowe’s.
Great video thanks
No problem 👍
I like those tail lights, where can I get em?
What about battery? Anything special to do?
Where are your fog light bezels from please
Noti squad
Very clean engine bay. Sexy car bro keep it up.
With all the modifications you void the warranty?
Pass the lumpia my g lol
whered you get that pressure washer gun?
🙌🏻 finally! Jk thanks for this video 🤙🏻
This may be a dumb question but I can wash my wrx engine bay even with the top mount intercooler? Is the water gonna pool or increases risk of getting in the engine?
Yes. Your TMIC gets wet when it rains.
What kind lift is that?
Why no optima batter??
Please normalize your audio. I have to turn volume way up to hear you speak and then way down during parts w/ music. Otherwise great videos, I just hate blasting my neighbors with mega loud music when the scene cuts.
Why'd you recently take away the ratings (Likes/Dislikes)
Kinda new to this channel but uhh.. did you ever show a face reveal? 🤔
What kind of jack are you using?
Where you get your pulley cover?
What would you recommend with the aluminum bits that start to show oxidization?
dremel with a wire wheel
this is scary :( how about the electric cables? the battery is not even disconnected :( im scared
What's the lift called?
Just curious, what intake your using? 🤔 I just parked up a 2020 sti. Looking to do a small performance change. Any suggestions before grabbing an intake. I already put my HKS cat back exhaust that I was using on my 17 wrx on.

Urbanized Dreams I have an accessport already. Just don’t know what’s the best intake to use
Did I catch a Lumpia in the intro? Lol
are those lumpia you eating?
You keep talking about "agitate, agitate" Wouldn't it be easier if I just called my wife out when it's time for all of that?😆😆😆
Side peace huh I wonder what you meant by that🤔😂
Very clean and sexy Subi! Love it. Fellow Washingtonian. :)
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Engine bay so clean I’ll eat a Canadian poutine right off I t
Hope all is well with the new Taco!
I thought I had OCD,lol
👍🏻🔰
My engine bay is filthy 👀
How often do you clean the engine bay?
Not very often. Maybe once or twice a year.
Mm jam that lumpia bro
😂😂😂Hell yeah bro!
lool washing engine bay with electrical items, face palm
Shit wasn’t even dirty
