How Much Did It Cost? Built EG33 Swapped Subaru WRX STI
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- It has been asked so often how much this swap has cost me and what all has gone into it. After tallying everything up I am actually surprised by the total cost of everything. Lemme say that the total cost was less than a Used Nissan GTR or Dodge Hellcat. In addition to being cheaper, it will make more power and be more fun IMO. But that is an opinion.

Finally a price breakdown on the eg33,absolutely love these style of videos
Took me a bit to add it all up 😅
Respect for the build. And the amount of time, effort, pain, frustration, enjoyment, and learning is not exactly measurable.
You make me wish I had an h6 swap in mine.
Never to late to send it 😉
I mustache you a question: Would you do the H6 swap again if you knew how much work it would take?
100% yes
i was gonna say that
Bruhhhhhhh the best question of the STASH
@@Smeedia yes yes yes in fact you paved the way so I can follow! along with many others!
Wife wants to use her GM6 2 door as a test bed for an Ej33 swap before we go into the Va chassis which is still under warranty ! ( *but not for long!* )
😆 🤣 😂
My hope for your channel with how innovative you have been with this swap is to see some more sponsor come aboard. There has got to be some companies especially precision, who really help people out with their builds. I of course don’t know the process but if anyone has earned the right to some sponship it is you and that big ass imagination that came true with mostly you pockets.
Tanner might have a sponsorship In the works with Gillette 😂
Most of the time if a company reaches out and wants to help I'm all game, but never liked the idea of asking them 💪
@@Smeedia I'll get their attention for you 🤝
I bet you can sell it for more than you have put in to it. This is one of those super rare custom builds with full documentary. Think Barrett Jackson status. With this angle, its always worth the build. Im super jelly of you.
I'm sure I could if someone Turley wanted it, every little detail has been documented on this thing 😅🔥
For a Hellcat
Incredible build my friend. You should be extremely proud of yourself. I really enjoyed watching this process. New WRX owner here this past week. You have a great inspiring channel and your humor is great too lol. Much love bro!
Eyyyy appreciate the support Johnny and thank you! 🥳
buy swap upgrade sell make profit = do another another subaru.
I really appreciate the balance of nerdy mechanic side of things but also being super fun to watch, I feel like I’m usually getting bored by this kind of things but it’s been the stuff I look forward to hopping on RUclips for. Idk maybe I’m just getting old…
Appreciate the feedback Logan, glad to hear that the balance is pretty good 🔥
Dude, I did not know you were in the movie Super Troppers.... :)
PULL OVER
I CANT PULL OVER ANYMORE MAN
I MUST know how much someone else spent on their car haha. Well done on the build btw.
Lol thank you 😅🔥
Great upload dude! Swear I love seeing people so that! I saw a guy who went same route as you only he used the EZ30 engine.
I've been debating doing an EZ in the future, imagine it would be easier 😅
@@Smeedia I’ve seen one on RUclips that I’ve been meaning to tag you in! It’s a beast like yours, only he dropped a sequential six speed in his. When I find it I’ll tag you in it.
So much respect for this build. I’ve been watching your progress since the beginning. I’m so happy for you to have finished this dream build!
Thank you Michael! Definitely been a journey 🥳
i brought a 2001 sf5 GT forester TD04 turbo and i have spent $45,000 total 280 bhp ej207 RA spec C sti jdm auto trans and 4.44 r160 true track LSD brakes 4 and 2 piston calipers shocks discs wheels tires exhaust ! feels like a $150,000 CAR AND BEATS THAT PRICE RANGE SUPER CARS ! thank you subaru .
I remember thinking the wiring for this car would never end. I was overwhelmed and I'm just watching. congrats bro such an admirable accomplishment.
Dude I felt like the wiring would never end 😅😅😅
Thank you for building an eg 33 and showing the world how great it is. I know other have also but it is the first one I have seen in the states. At some point I need to build mine.
Honestly my favorite engine now. I never knew they had so much potential but glad we stuck with it 🥳
I can admire a unique project. Thanks for calling me a few months back Tanner, appreciate it. Going to the dyno in a few weeks myself to finish up! 🙏
Keep me posted on how things go 🥳
Congrats on a truly unique Subaru build. I admire the full commitment. Who knew the EG33 SVX motors had this kind of potential? Awaiting the dyno runs and when you finally take it out to the track.
Tbh did not know this engine had that much potential until we really started diving into it
Everyone that's been doing subies the last 2 decades. There's a reason they shove these things in homemade airplanes
Tanner Selleck… the real Mr. Baseball. Lovin it dude!
🤭🤭🤭
Every penny will be worth it when you’re ripping on that thing! Already is in my opinion. Amazing car
Don't regret a single penny 💪
Im bought a eg33 and it is coming next month! I will definitely be rewatching your videos all the way from the start!
How much you find one for?!
I found one for 975+250 for the ecu!
Soo much respect to you for going full throttle on this build, coming from a cheap Honda builder lol and a current Subaru Tech this build is legendary! I have hopes to have another Subaru someday and mildly modify it but def not to this level haha. Issa too mut money for me haha! Top 5 best Subaru build by far in my opinion! Keep grinding dude, your efforts are very inspiring!
Thank you my friend! Definitely not something that most people would do. Low key kinda want to take this thing to a dealership to see their reactions 😅 just don't trust the techs lol
I’m really hoping this channel gets what it deserves again you and Adam are the top of the top channels currently
❤️❤️❤️
Dude like the stache. I’m sorry I don’t even have time to watch the video just saw the thumbnail and love the stash. Keep the stash. Stash
Noted to keep the stache 😅
If you didn't have a headlight cutout, fender exhaust, and a youtube channel this car could be an incredible sleeper build.
No one would know 🤫
18:10. We need to get you a "Fear no Evo" plate. Of course, seems like you were going for, "fear no exotic."
Going for the big bois 😅🔥
I’ve been following this build as soon as I found out you were doing it, and I LOVE it. You make me wanna buy a second STI and just do a basic swap for it and build it a little bit. Nothing close to yours but the way that sounds it’s music to my ears
I say send it and do a basic build on one 😈
@@Smeedia i would do it in a blobeye
these accounts are never made when passion hits ..... because the emotion when you finish is priceless ;-) fantastic project
Thank you Alberto 🔥🥳
BUILD NOT BAUGHT!
yes i spelled that wrong on purpose!
my 1987 Porsche 944 with about 7k shoved into it makes more HP and is more fun and reliable and costs literally 10% of a hell cat.... and easily walks away and out corners them pigs.
your STI is what i dreamed my STI could become when i bought it last year! and your doing/done it!!!!!
SO JELLY OF THAT 994!!!!! 😍
Ha !!! Everyone says I'm out to lunch, when I tell them I would love to do this to mine, but it would cost north of $100 000 (I'm in Canada - so $55k US converted, plus everything else being more expensive up here :( ) Now I can show them this - and kep buying the lottery tickets LOL !!!! Great job Tanner, and so happy to finally see this beast driving
Thank you! Blood my mind hoe much more exspeive everything is up therr for you guys 😳
ABSOLUTELY WORTH EVERY PENNY BRO! I FREAKING LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
💪🥳
We all have our automotive wants and desires. Thank you for sharing yours with us. Would love to see that car in person one day. As for the 'stache, keep it. I've had mine since I was 14 years old. 😁👍🏾
I unfortunately had to ditch the stache already 😅
This was worth every penny. Doing it your self is just some thing special. You've bluilt something amazing!!
Definitely one of my favorite feelings to be able to say I did this 😁
Love the build! Much respect. I sold my big turbo sti for a hellcat and haven’t looked back….it’s the best daily/track car I’ve ever owned.
Challenger or charger? 👀
@@Smeedia charger! Need those 4 doors!
Smart man chargers look better IMO 🤌
You gotta take this thing on Hoonigan's this vs that
100% down for that 💪
Damn i just realized how long this build has gone on for. I started watching when you started the eg and I coincidentally bought an svx at the same time
How's the SVX been 👀
Shit adds up! The content for your channel is great. The quality of the build is great. Your channel has grown a lot in the past few months. It's a lot of hard work putting out this many videos a week but it will pay off. I appreciate the effort
Trying my best and appreciate the kind words Aaron 💪❤️
As long as you don't regret it it's worth it. No matter how expensive.
Facts, wouldent change a thing 💪
I’m not even into subarus I only work on audis but this build is awesome I watched the whole build series amazing work man
Audio scare me to work on, I commend you for that 😅🔥
My bro... what an informative and absolutely incredible video. Thank you so much for not just adding up everything, but doing the little side notes to keep our minds aware and sharp. You are seriously such an inspiration to me and the future of my subaru. I hope to have this level of knowledge with my car one day. You are driving a truly one of a kind machine and you have earned every bit of enjoyment that it will bring you. Cheers my friend!!!
Thank you Marcus! And I try to sprinkle in some of thr informational bits as well 🥳
The mustache treats you well! Love the car! Wish I could take the time to do all that with my STI!
I was expecting more for parts. Yes its a lot of money, but you did it yourself and we know how much you are proud of it.
With that porsharu we all pick up a ton of knowledge and we still have a ton to come.
Thanks for all the time you take to share that with us🙏
On that 🚗💥💨🔥🔥🔥
I too was expecting way more but surprisingly enough not as much as I thought 😅🔥
I spent to much on a car that will never return its value but the smiles are worth it
All about the smiles 💪
Glad your happy man. All that matters. And, yes, the mustache must stay. Had myself a mustache for a couple months now...its grown on me. Mehehehe.
In the end it's all about happiness, money will always come and go 💪
Awesome!!! Mustache makes you look like a cop… worth the $$$ cause it’s the coolest build out there!!!
Pulling people over 😅😅😅
@@Smeedia 😝🤙🌀
Bro you’re closing in on 100k how do yewww feel!? Crazy I’ve been here since the 12k mark. Also love the Stache 😂🥸
We're doing the thing to get there! 🥳🥳🥳
I have to see and hear this!!! Missed you last week. Are you going to the tmg meet on Saturday?
There's a tmg meet?
Brian posted it of fb. Sat at 1 at twin peaks. Pre meet for stance wars I guess.
Siiiiick! It's looking great man. Lotta money, but if it makes you happy it's def worth it.
Can't wait for the trans work and whatever else is next!
Also, HUGE shoutout to KEIN - Dudes a monster, makes all kinds of great stuff 👍👍
Kevin makes some solid stuff, 10/10 support him any day of the week
i hope i can see this thing ripping around the area sometime soon 🤙
Been out and about in it every day this week 💪
The Pro Drive GC8 price suddenly makes sense considering the amount of development that probably went into it! Great Video Tanner it really put a lot of things into perspective! 👌
Thank you! It's surprisingly not ad much as I was expecting it to be 😅
It doesn't though because you can literally build a 2.5rs that's faster and better for less
Incredible ride! You’re truly gifted bro. If I only had 20% of the knowledge you have I’d be happy lol. I feel like a baby just trying to work on my 05 WRX. I hope I have the balls and knowledge to get my ride going.
Honestly when I started this I knew nothing on how to do this. Learn as you go 💪🔥
Been watching since day # 1.
I must say I feel like I was looking over your shoulder the whole time drinking your beer. I'm truly happy seeing it finaly take shape. I guessed 60k😁 so close. I hope the channel will make up for it.
Congrats on becoming that Sti H6 swap guy everyone mentions at car meets 😂 Cheers.
Lol thank you and what was the beer of choice 👀👀👀
Thank you for your transparency!
Anytime 🥳
Running the same tires that I am for my summer set of wheels, albeit quite a bit bigger, I believe I’m running 245/40R18, fantastic set of tires, sticky enough for me to feel confident on the curvy backroads of Wisconsin
One of my favorite tires out there! Use them on all of the cars 💪
I think to joy this car has been and will bring you is priceless. Awesome video as always man!
Will bring endless smiles 🤌🔥
I was surprised about the alternator.
Keep making the path man.
Issa little pricey on that one
JESUS! I wish i could like this video twice to keep contributing to this build!!! THIS IS MONEY!!! Also, hurts my heart knowing the dollar figure. Also, how does insurance work on this build, do they come to the table on pricing or do they just insure on the base STI???
Keep the stash bro, rocking it well my dude!
I've got a specialty insure set up so in the event anything happened we wouldent be too boned 😅
Good job man, happy for you. Seems like just yesterday you were unboxing the H6 block from Outfront only to find it broken.
That was such a sad day 😅
I'm running the MAP DCCD in my sti swapped 2018 wrx and she plays nice with my MoTec. She was fully programmable.
Hmmm I was looking into the SPIIder one 👀
So jealous of how seemingly proficient your backlog of videos is kept. If I may suggest taking your car to a recycling plant or something of the sort to weigh in and compare against stock
I love your channel! I have a stock 18 sti but appreciate your advice for beginners like myself. I too live in WA!
What area?! 🥳
@@Smeedia Whidbey Island. About an hour and half north of Seattle.
Its definitely cool to drive something different, when I was in the market for my turbo subaru I didn't a boring wrx/STi or forester XT like everyone and their mothers drive, I went with a Baja Turbo 5MT. Rare to see a Baja in general but even more cool when you see a turbo manual one at that. My second choice would have been a manual outback XT because fast wagons are cool too.
BRUH BAJAS ARE LITERALLY UNICORNS UP HERE!!!!
@@Smeedia I was lucky enough to have Doug Demuro review my Baja that's in his video! They really are unicorns, Subarus best vehicle imo! I am biased though. 😎
About to go watch that video right now 😅
I really want to check this car out in person at the Big Northwest meet!! I hope you're able to get it dyno'd by then. Regardless, amazing fucking job. Extremely impressive dedication, creativity and innovation.
It should be by then 🥳 if not I'll still be there with it on the break in tune 💪
Shaved....lookin good.. LOL... Wow... such a nice tally... When is the next Dyno... Congrats man :)
Waiting to hear from Josh for when we go back 💪
Lol mustache was the first thing I noticed watching this video.
🤭🤭
Love these breakdown of cost Vids. Really puts things into perspective.
Helps you know where all yhr money was spent too 💪
Litterally sounds like a fighter plane with a turbo. This is easily the dopest thing ever
Lmao yessss 🤣🤣🤣
Magnum PI is in the house.
😉😉😉
new to your channel, liked the information , and your a western washington guy like myself,. I have a 2006 wrx/sti limited wagon, ,love it currently am frustrated with it. Idle issues. would love your advice on this one, going on 4 weeks of diagnosis with two shops, and my researching. This is how I found your channel.
What all have you guys checked so far? 🙏
@@Smeedia well we first thought accelerator pedal(sensor) that's gone out three times now. That didn't cure it like usual. So we obd'd it and throttle body popped up. So I changed that out. And this car is all electronic. I picked it up from the mech, in Oregon, drove it home running great for an hour. And on the freeway at 70 two little sputters, and then bam, limp mode. Since then we have changed MAF sensor. New battery, upgraded alternator 180a . right now , we just saw a new code pop up, for the secondary air pump which Im gonna assume that includes the valves.
Ahhhhh secondary air pump is dumb af and can cause that. But you've gone through 3 sensors for the APP?
What happened to the beard?
Also I want to say thank you!
Your videos have re ignited my love for cars and given me hope that not every person that works on cars claps them out. So thank you again for what you do!
Gave myself a hair cut and cut too far into the beard 😅😅😅
Always glad that I'm able to share my man! 🥳
I feel that! Rock your bestashio life my guy it will grow back.
My wife would have just gave me angry looks of disgust up until 2:03............... then I'd be on that show Unsolved Mysteries.
If you go missing we will find you 💔
I’m living through you- thing is insane. I imagine I wouldn’t regret a thing either. Keep doing it, and I hope to see footage of you embarrassing exotics. Damn that subie is dope!
Hopefully coming soon my friend 🔥❤️
"Who doesn't want to get bullied by a Subaru" legit made me smile Lol
Can't wait
🤭🤭🤭
Keep the 'stache! Killer build, and props to you for doing the lion's share of the work yourself. Excited to watch the build as it progresses.
Thank you Kyle! Been a journey to get it here but so excited to keep it going
Thank You and Great Mustache! Can’t wait to see some “bullying” of some V8s and V12s. Great job and best of luck.
Thank you 🥳 and soon to come!
Dude, this car turned out insane. Such a bad ass project
Congrats on getting the Porscharu road worthy again! One hell of a journey and you should be as proud as Tom Selleck is that you stole his mustache!
Keep doing your thing bro. Keep up the good work.
Alqays my friend 💪❤️
Some of that money can be saved by not doing the same mistakes a second time around. The first couple versions of the exhaust and intake manifold could all be money saved!
Big facts! First time around is always the experimental one 😅
I hope you have good Auto insurance, most companies won’t cover THAT much in aftermarket parts. A stated-value type policy may be your best option.
Have a specialty insurance on it 🙏
i cant stop looking at the mustache, i cant stop hearing it either
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love this car Tanner, the idea of using a Subaru Power Plant, albeit from the 90s was pure evil genius.
Had to keep the purity somehow 🤌
Damn my dude I didn't realize it cost that much. Sorry I keep telling you to spend more money all the time 🤑 I think you're going to need to sell more merch! BTW that sweatshirt looks pretty good. Like you said it's cool as hell to have something very unique especially that you built 🔧 yourself to take pride in that build hats off brother 👍🏼👍🏼💯💯🏁
It's a no-go for me on the mustache. Not that it looks horrible on you or anything. Probably clean-shaven until it grows in and rinse and repeat. That's what we're all used to lol. It's not a big deal for me either way so you just keep doing you!
Lol the stache is gone. Shaved it right after this video 😅😅😅
Good feeling to be able to be able to say that I was the one who built the car 🥳
Such an awesome build man, keep it up!!
Thank you 🥳🥳🥳
Honestly it's alot of money but what you got for the money is pretty good considering
I'd say it wasn't too bad 🔥💪
Total respect for your transparency, efforts and especially your fortitude on your build. Achieving your dreams is awesome. Your future plans sound intriguing also. This though is not the sleeper car you envisioned at first. Funny how build goals evolve.
Respectfully I will take an OEM Nissan GTR even with it being automatic. It is not taboo to own and drive an iconic stock car. Also its' value will skyrocket and parts are readily available. It's more like an investment that you can both physically appreciate and have it financially appreciate. Your car definitely has niche appeal.
Oh and now that you have thrown down the challenge gauntlet I truly wish you the best of luck.
The gauntlet had been thrown! Lol definitely comes down to personal preference, for me I'd take the subaru any day of the week 🤌
Awesome video. I loveee these price breakdowns and I think you did a good job separating things! For the mustache, I like it but man I love the beard combo haha
The mustache had to go 😅😅😅
I'm having same engine done.
3.38L svx twin turbo 1200hp in a lowerer 2001 Subaru legacy wagon
Definitely keep the mustache looks clean af🙏
👨👨👨
Love the stash man!! You look like a undercover narc loll
It's my side gig lol
Well gotdamn Mr. Money Baggz 😆
The best part of the car, is you did most of that shit yourself. Gotta feel so good! 👍🏻
Feels monumental 🙏🔥
First rule of owning a Subaru, never add up how much you’ve spent 🤣
Do not do it 😅😅😅
Wondering what tools you had to buy? Welding equipment, Quick Jack.......
Didn't need the quick jacks or welder, but definitely helped 😅
Sounds expensive on paper but most definitely worth every penny. Also a big ol bow chicka wow wow on the 70s stache lol.
😉😉😉😉
congrats its been awesome...as a multi sti owner I m loving what you've done..if you're broke I ll buy some razors and send them to you
Tried the stache, not for me 😅
You always think I could have bought this or that. Be it a diff car or house or whatever but once you get behind the wheel all that goes away. Excited to see if you can get a stand alone dccd working. The stash works
We will get it working 🥳
Once I start driving it I don't even think about the cost of it 💪
Holy shit Tanner lmao never thought I’d see you without a beard 😂
Lol keeping ya on your toes 😅😅😅
Let me see how much money is in my daughter's college fund. Nope, not enough. Congtars brother. Let the journey continue.
Lmao stop that 🤣🤣
And thank you 🥳
And I thought $13k into a Volvo was a lot lol. That was all for 400hp. Granted accounted for things I did more then once. Sets of tires etc. But turbo $1k, low mileage motor $700, coilovers $1k, flywheel and clutch $1lk, injectors and water methanol kit $1k, poly mounts and bushings a chassis braces $500.. not a detailed list like your but yeah adds up fast. That car I did everything myself. I just got an built LS swapped rwd Volvo that I paid 10k with 200 mile delivery. But to do it myself and pay for the fab and tuning and all the parts in it would've cost more then double. You did a great job though and hopefully you'll be able to enjoy it for years to come...
An LS Volvo would be so much fun 😅🔥
Enjoying it everyday and will co tongue to do so 🔥🥳
29k in parts for my STI... I know the struggle and I have only begun.. 🙁 Between labor, parts, cost of the one owner car and pro tuning costs, I could be easily driving any car that I want but I only want to drive a expensive shit-box STI because it brings out the hot boy racer in me... true story
I’m also at $33k for parts in my sti. Closer to $50k with labor. It lasted 6000 miles and it’s done. I’ve got quotes of $20k + to fix it.
And just like that, this was my reminder that I am broke lol you guys are awesome
We like our subarus 🤌 the hot boy racer comment got me 😅😅😅
Its summer yo! Rock the 'stache!
😄🤘
🤭🤭🤭🤭
That car is absolutely unique and a work of art. So much work and effort resulting in a masterpiece. Hopefully tuning and some number soon. Still waiting on the oil-cooler plans/install btw 🤨 That said, the beardless look might not be the best idea 😵💫. Just my honest opinion 😉
Figured out how I'm going to do it just need to get it done 😅🔥
