THE COMEBACK
DONT CALL IT A COMEBACK!!
-LL Cool J
Sooooo glad this series came back the way it did. Would like to see one of a 300zx in the future!
300zx IS SUCH A GOOD CAR! Subscribe for more!
Let’s make something magical again 🎉 SUBSCRIBE BOYS
This dude was the highlight of fitment. Thank God your back. Your channel will grow. Don't stop. Subscribed!!!
Owning the song is the biggest flex of 2023
Pretty glad to see this come back very nostalgic to me. I love this series and you should really do a new/updated video on the Mitsubishi 3000GT. Great content man keep it up.
THIS IS THE GREATEST COMEBACK OF 2023!!! LFG BABY!! The So You Want series is what got me into modifying cars and I am HERE for this
THIS IS THE TYPE OF ENERGY WE NEED
Used to own an '18 Sti. Did the basic stuff, and started looking into increasing power. For "reliable" 400-450 hp, parts alone were around $14k. ($9k for IAG block Rated for 500hp). Not worth it.
Throw some nice wheels and coilovers on it, catback and maybe a short shifter, and leave it alone. If you want a car with more power, WRX / Sti isn't the right choice.
IAG blocks overrated and overpriced
2019 and up STI came with type RA block n internals I have a 19 with 70 k has been tuned on flex since 14 k at 487 WHP 520 TRQ SO it’s possible with the 19 n up STI no problem a lot of people making me power than me n doing just fine
Love the song coming back! And the layout for the vid was great! I have the WRX as well and watch smeedia. Your points are all correct!
All of this is valid. No shitting on the platform just straight facts. Love this kind of content, each car is unique in its own way and they all have issues of their own.
“…We own it now.” THE ENERGY! Got me fired up!
Been following since the FI days! Your killing it Alex, thanks for being down to earth in your own channel too.
I’m deciding between a 10th gen SI, civic hatch (adding an LSD) (I like the looks more than coupe or sedan lol) and the VA WRX as a DD/ beginner track day car. So glad this series is back!
Just know this is why I’m a fan of Alex taught me everything I know about modifying
Your content is great 😆 Super solid delivery and editing. I'll make sure not to blow up my WRX lol
Love you
I will not modify my WRX with parts that require a tune, it the tune is not scheduled already. Amen 🙏
Yo man I’m stuck between getting a 2019 Honda accord 10th gen or 2015 Subaru wrx sti. I want to mod them but I’m not sure which to get. Can I get some help?Please!
Subaru
So good. The TUNE Zone, you should trademark it.
when are the banners coming out my boi my focus would look great with a white one
Can you do the 22 VBs ? Looks aside the FA24 is killer.
After having owned a 21 VA and now a 22 VB. I much prefer the looks of the VB. Even the plastic has grown on me an seeing paint matched if off to me. Dropping an STI trans in mine to make it the car it SHOULD have been.
@@DarkWolfWRX What else have you done to the car? I recently got a VB as well and I'm leaving it 100% stock until warrantly is up. It's my first car and learning manual was very fun. Once warrantly was up I was thinking about getting an intake, cat-back, and a short throw shifter. I've heard a little bit about swapping the trans as the sti one is more durable and overall just better as well as upgrading the brakes if you want to take it to the track. Any other things I should be considering? It will be my only car so I'm not aiming for anything too crazy as I need something that won't be braking all the time.
Excellent video sir, I never thought I'd own a 2015 STI because they were too far out of my price range for a daily. But three months ago I decided to pick up a sketchy one with mods for 16k, and after getting a tune for the parts on the vehicle, and fixing some body issues the car runs great! Smeedia has been a great resource to maintaining an STI. My journey isn't done yet as there are still things to do but what a fun daily. Cheers!
Step 1: Learn from others' misfortune
Step 2: Send it
RIP Fitment Industries
I've adopted this recipe before buying my 2015 STi and it taste good lol
I want more boost from my turbo , ?
didn’t really dig you!!!
TILL YOU WERE GONE!
GLAD YOUR BACK, KEEP PUSHIN HOMEZ!
YESSSSSSS
Sue my but my dream car is an R35 GTR 09-12 Cba and Dba cars. I have measurable seat time in the both passenger and driver. But after driving my 2020 WRX and the E85 2019 WRX we have at my work, the GTRs allure is mostly gone. These are just better.
I want one so fucking bad, specifically the 2018 model, I'll even do with the 2021 model but there's literally none in Ireland, not for sale at least, and there is very few for sale in the whole of europe, even then majority of the ones in Europe for sale are LHD which I am not comfortable with. Smh, one day.
I 100% agree, boxer engine need a remap after modification. Jdm Subaru has to be tuned for your local gas since 100 octane is not available everywhere. Got my 1998 JDM B4 RSK tuned for 98 octane and making 330 HP.
Great vid!!!
Can you please do a beginner drifting build with 350z
1. Which year 350z
2. What need to be taken out
3. What parts needed
4. Welded diff or buy one
5. Who’s RUclips channel you learn how to drift
6. Do you drift ?
Awesome way to bring the series back!
Glad you enjoyed, subscribe for more of the videos coming!
Wait even changing the radiator requires a tune? I know changing TMIC to a FMIC does. But a radiator you got me all confused lol
Titan7’s are my go to wheel recommendations for 2015-2021 WRX/STI’s. They are the chef’s kiss🤌🏻
For the AWD, 4 banger platform. Golf R seems to be the most tuner friendly for performance. But the WRX and Evo do look amazing.
Golf R's are underrated honestly
Yup, the EA888 can take on a lot of reliable power. Fwiw, the S3 looks pretty nice if you're into the WRX and Evo look and is the same exact car (at least 8V and MK7, the MK8 and 8Y have some slight differences). I went the S3 route just because it's cheaper than the Golf R.
Love my va wrx but golf r is the car I’ll be hunting for
s/o for the MULTIPLE pieces of content dedicated to the Subaru heads LOL
Do the engine covers actually do anything some say the actually work others say it’s doesn’t work
The song. The comeback, the vibes, the approach that made me enjoy your videos so much! I hope this series stays for a while !
Can I use that song for my gaming channel? That be Sensational 🧐☕️
@MartiniWorks Here he is trying to win the fanbase that hates him. Youve never worked on a subaru = your opinion is irrelevant
very Steve Buscemi-esque here … yeah I’m searching Craigslist for a used STi 😅
Awesome vid man and good timing! I just picked up a 2016 in January and its a blast! Got some wheels, the coils and exhaust are next. thanks for the help!
You should have more subs. Great video production.
Matini seems like the last person to do a video like this... But its amazing none the less!
Bro good video but the yelling in the beginning was a bit much ngl
Sorry we were excited
Doing an exhaust won’t hurt the car right? Like don’t need a tune or anything?
Damn this just feels right! LFG Alex!!!
I drove 1.6l subaru oh man the head gasket start to leak around 9000km close to 10,000km. 😭 And the car is completely stock.
OH LAWDY
Let’s gooo! 🔥🔥
🙌🙌
the smeedia shoutout :)
Gotta love smeed
I must be getting old, the "stance" stuff is incredibly cringe.
Alex and Dakota were the soul of fitment industries glad to see them killin it in new adventures. Always great content done right👍👍👍
TIL Kyle MacLachlan was in a WRX commercial.
Noo I’m keeping that stock 😭 don’t want to trouble
As a subie owner first thing I did was aos cylinder 4 coolent mod iag oil pan/ pick up better radiator
hold up, did alex buy the rights to use coste solitary?!? thats dope
I've got a very clean bugeye 192k on body and trans 60k on JDM rebuild, and its my daily
We also like to live dangerously
AYE THAT INTRO WAS COLD
Anyone know what wheels are on the first sti when the beat drops? 😅
you don’t need a tune for a radiator, idk where you heard that from..
I have a beautiful almost new white 2021
I agree with the views of this video, anything past a stage 1 tune STI should be considered not a daily driver. make sure you have another car to daily before you go above 300 at the wheels. Definitely keep up on the fluids and regular maintenance and checks. Pro tunes are definitely the way to go in that department off the shelf tunes are for getting to the Tuner.
Can you do a build on a jetta 1.8tsi
It probably pained you to make this video and not talk shit about subaru the entire time lmao
That song slaps though
Bro is posted up gels' house??
That thing in the past got a 4k update!
how to modify an mazda rotary🤷♂️
Love this subi gang
I’m at 350 WHP on E60 for past 3 years 47k miles later with plenty of launches. She lives for now but once she blows Im part out and switch platforms.
SO YOU WANT A BOXER BOIIIIII
The song! The come back!
333 subs, so glad to see you back!
Love It!!!😂🎉💯😜
Do axle back exhaust require tune for 23 wrx vb ? Since it’s just reliving back pressure stupid question I know but I rather ask then have a blown engine lmao
tuuuuuuuune zoooone
I could've used this about 2 months ago when I bought my STI Alex 🤦🏻♂️
Is this fitment industries?
Hi, 2021 wrx owner who will not modify the cars engine. Wheels, tires, suspension and a cat back and that is it. I daily my car and just use it for fun on the weekends through winding country roads
Should do the VBs next.
ve had my subaru 2017 wrx since it had 4400 miles on it. Love that thing but had the tranny go on it at 22,000 miles. also yes i know how to drive a manual im 36 years old and have had 14 cars 9 of those manual. When i brought it to the shop they said i wasint under warranty bc they said it had signs of abuse $3200 later....Down the road as of now after they "fixed it" the car is back in the shop waiting to see what they say now at 30,000 miles. thinking about selling the thing now since this keeps happing and the bad taste of they Not honoring thier warranty
We're back baby! Hell yeah! (Do Evo X... Again)
Aight bet
@@MartiniWorksOfficial Hell yeah 😎
Video starts around 5:45
Wanna know how I know you’re getting older? You favor the maintenance rule. Welcome to the top Alex, all down hill from here. When it is time to freshen up my rig I will buy from y’all and setup my build thread. Much love keep it up, this is why I listen/watch your shtuff (yes I combined shyt and stuff) my guy.
im part of the 80 percent.
I agree with the video.. let’s point the obvious out. If you can’t do maintenance or keep up with scheduled maintenance work on your car.. probably shouldn’t own a car or even be thinking about doing engine modifications
wait im confused now do i need to tune it if i change exhaust system? Im guessing yes
absolutely, the tolerances on these cars are tiny, find a well reviewed tuner, spend the money, not worth saving $400 for a tune when you have to buy a new engine lol
Way more well put together than videos in the past. Really good takes in this one.
You should definitley talk about Evo 8/9.
Also, Blobeye>Bugeye (unless its the wagon)
My cousin told me that if someone tells you that they tuned their WRX you should ask them how many engines they've blown up.
we need one for the vb!
1:15 FUCK YEAHHHH!!!
How about a video on the Mazdaspeed protege? Nobody talks about them but they're so fun LOL
Like that song
Long pause
The most in your face speech ever heard
WE OWN IT NOW
Been finding a lot of busted Subies in the classifieds lately, very tempting to swap in a carbed Chevy v6 and call it a day.
Just don’t buy it
For those who own/owned a subaru wrx sti do yall recommend it??
Depending, of where you live, I would say. Here in Eu, the gas price are very hight and sti burn a lot of gas...for only 300 hp. We speak about 100€ for 300 km. Sti are not reliable for sure, yes, pepole are trashing them...same as honda but honds do not blow head gasket at this rythme. Go for fk8 if you need a 4 door sedan for sure.....
I need this for a 2008 to 2014 wrx!!!!!
We'll add it to the list!
Well said !
I went crazy when I heard the song!!! My two year old is looking at me like wtf is wrong with you dad.
the amount of times of cut corners for mine lmao.... but the corner cutting is catching up to me as now i have loads of problems that need addressed asap.
When alex said when you blowing it up I felt that, just recently blew my fa24 lol
