THE COMEBACK
DONT CALL IT A COMEBACK!!
-LL Cool J
Just got my WRX back in February and my first mod is a catback exhaust. I’ve waited 7 years to own this car so I’m definitely gonna take my time and do it CORRECT. Thanks for the vid, now I don’t feel so stupid asking “if I do this does it need tuned” 😂 🙌🏼
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!
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
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
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.
Just know this is why I’m a fan of Alex taught me everything I know about modifying
“…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!
Let’s make something magical again 🎉 SUBSCRIBE BOYS
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!
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!
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.
The song. The comeback, the vibes, the approach that made me enjoy your videos so much! I hope this series stays for a while !
My 2015 has been stage 2 pro tuned since about 45k and im at 100k with no issues other than stock turbo seals and CMC gave out. With regular maintenance these cars are as reliable as anything else.
I will not modify my WRX with parts that require a tune, it the tune is not scheduled already. Amen 🙏
Titan7’s are my go to wheel recommendations for 2015-2021 WRX/STI’s. They are the chef’s kiss🤌🏻
I've adopted this recipe before buying my 2015 STi and it taste good lol
Alex and Dakota were the soul of fitment industries glad to see them killin it in new adventures. Always great content done right👍👍👍
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 ?
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
Awesome way to bring the series back!
Glad you enjoyed, subscribe for more of the videos coming!
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
I LOVE that you brought back the music! 🔥 🔥 🔥 gets the people GOIN!
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.
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.
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!
Way more well put together than videos in the past. Really good takes in this one.
"You like the song,we own it now" best part of the vedio.
So good. The TUNE Zone, you should trademark it.
Matini seems like the last person to do a video like this... But its amazing none the less!
AYE THAT INTRO WAS COLD
Just got my 2016 WRX Sport Tech and I love that thing
Thank you so much. The smile I had when that music started. Keep it going.
333 subs, so glad to see you back!
didn’t really dig you!!!
TILL YOU WERE GONE!
GLAD YOUR BACK, KEEP PUSHIN HOMEZ!
Your content is great 😆 Super solid delivery and editing. I'll make sure not to blow up my WRX lol
Love you
The song! The come back!
The song brought me wayyyyyy back perfect intro
And I’ll say it again the best part is the intro music !!
Honoured to be the thumbnail, entertaining as always
We appreciate you letting us use that gorgeous photo!
Keep up the amazing content
As a subie owner first thing I did was aos cylinder 4 coolent mod iag oil pan/ pick up better radiator
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
Intro was a whole flex
I MISS THIS SERIES
Now this is the type of shit im talking about Alex. Honest, REAL opinions! LFG
When alex said when you blowing it up I felt that, just recently blew my fa24 lol
Like that song
Long pause
The most in your face speech ever heard
WE OWN IT NOW
Excelent and welcome back🎉. I just got a FXT and this is very helpful
You should have more subs. Great video production.
when are the banners coming out my boi my focus would look great with a white one
Damn this just feels right! LFG Alex!!!
s/o for the MULTIPLE pieces of content dedicated to the Subaru heads LOL
We're back baby! Hell yeah! (Do Evo X... Again)
Aight bet
@@MartiniWorksOfficial Hell yeah 😎
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
You should put the link in the description. Also everything he said is true don’t be like me and do all the tone necessary stuff unless your car is bulletproof because you’ll break down on the way to the tune appointment. Which then leads to over a year of trying and failing to get it ready 😢
The link is in the description!
Let’s gooo! 🔥🔥
🙌🙌
I love these seres . And the energy smacks
That song slaps though
Yo the intro 😭🔥
The introooooo hell yeah!!
You should definitley talk about Evo 8/9.
Also, Blobeye>Bugeye (unless its the wagon)
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.
YESSSSSSS
Love these videos, glad to see them back! Is it possible you could do a video for the new VBs? Getting a 2023 wrx soon!
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
Love this subi gang
Thank you for mentioning me.
That intro was amazing hahahaha
Yesss!! Missed this!
That thing in the past got a 4k update!
I went crazy when I heard the song!!! My two year old is looking at me like wtf is wrong with you dad.
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.
How did I miss this ❤
How about a video on the Mazdaspeed protege? Nobody talks about them but they're so fun LOL
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.
Step 1: Learn from others' misfortune
Step 2: Send it
Im happy this is back, any chance can Dakota bring back a version of driver to driver?
Great video, thank you for making it!
Alex, luv the content, the track is dope. Bringing back some of the OG flavor. Do an update on the VB. It's a great car. I own an MGM and have 57DRs. We have to agree to disagree. Rays Wheels are better quality than Eneki, that's why they cost more LOL. Would be nice to see the old crew back for a video or two.
Please no vb content 💩👎🤮
Sick intro
Can’t wait for you to do evo 8 and 9 !!!!!!
nah you are not slippin the evo 8 joke in there without us noticing
I love this guy
Should do the VBs next.
Wonderful video!
Glad you enjoyed! Subscribe for what's coming!
HE PLAYED THE SONG!!!
YOOO I NEEDED THIS
This was great
very Steve Buscemi-esque here … yeah I’m searching Craigslist for a used STi 😅
Hilarious, but so true. Thanks bro
Lets goooo🚀🌛
Lmao never stop playing that song it gets the people going !!
Well said !
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.
Can you do a build on a jetta 1.8tsi
Can I use that song for my gaming channel? That be Sensational 🧐☕️
Love It!!!😂🎉💯😜
we need one for the vb!
