That's what is great about these type of cars, not just Subarus.

We all family 

For a little while longer

They're still rally-inspired. And understeer can be a very simple fix.

Subaru's are GOAT 4-bangers, and the EJ257 is slowly becoming legendary.

And I didn't even get into their transmission yet.

Man you are such a Subie stan after doing your google research after copping one. Evo's would like to have a word with you too btw.

You remind me of my boy who started vaping like a month ago and claims to be a walking vape encyclopedia now.

 

[nelson999]

 
And have dumped over $10,000 into it

This is why Evo >>>>>>>>>>

took me roughly $2500 to get it over 400whp

and where my car is at now, all it would take to get it well over 600whp is:
Have my turbo sent to FP and turned into an FP Black for ~$1200

Bigger injectors for $350

Bigger fuel pump for $150

go get a retune

 

[nelson999]

 
I'm making more torque on my stock turbo though.

Yes but after a lot more money....

and my tuner purposely tuned the tq down because low end torque is bad on the block. Otherwise the tq would have been in the 440 range

 

[nelson999]

 
If money is the discussion just boost a Civic. 

 gross broooooo

but nah even with a Honda once you buy the car it's going to take a lot of money into it to get 400-500 hp.  That's why i never bothered putting money into making my s2000 fast. 

and it will still be fwd so that power is useless

 

[nelson999]

 But you can boost a Civic to like 300wheel and it'll definitely smoke me on a roll.

i get what you are saying but i was comparing the Evo/STI because they are similarly priced cars and similar cars obviously (AWD, Turbo, 4 cylinder, sedans) civics aren't comparable.

Similarly priced cars, but it's much cheaper/easier to add power to the Evo is all i was getting at

Anyways, when you doing the engine build and new turbo? 

 

[kevenmayne]

What in the world did you spend $10k on if you are still on the stock block/turbo? I don't have a 15' sti so I'm obviously not as informed as you, but I can't even fathom what it was spent on
I can't imagine you even gaining that much more power over a stock sti that has just a e85tune. I am genuinely interested in knowing . Not hating btw

 

[sreggie101]

Not a stan or an avid googler.

I do lurk forums and talk to my tuner and shop owner a lot through FB, though.
And have dumped over $10,000 into it, along with purchasing a $40,000 Subaru. So yea, I'm not just talking to talk, or copying and pasting google info like 98% of NT does.

 

damn

 

[kevenmayne]

+labor

A lot of people would call you crazy and say most of those things were pointless while on the stock turbo still

Can't even imagine how fun that car is to drive though!

 

[dead stokc]

Oh and if there was an EVO XI, I'd probably be in that

 

[nelson999]

The Evo died when they got rid of the 4G63

 

[greg12345678900]

All this Subie talk got me itching to race one soooo bad. The kid at work keeps stalling me out. He keeps saying he'll race me but after he's more comfy with driving stick. Plus he keeps telling me he doesn't think he'll even win. I mean damb he's probably right, but at least try! Lmao that's a losing attitude B

 

[dead stokc]

Turbo all the things &

 

[nelson999]

tbh @WhatCanISay  and myself could combine our horsepower into one car and still not be able to beat Greg 

 

[jordman23]

I agree doing the speed limit is like watching blues clues or dora the explorer and answering all their audience questions. I just feel ******ed going that slow with lots of open road in front of me. Plus i don't like being behind people. it gives me anxiety to have to hover over the brake and hope they dont do something ******ed or come to a complete stop to make a turn or change lanes. so i get to the front all the time. I think i have a clinical phobia.




^^ We have the same driving style lol. That's why I was so heated with my ticket in Arizona. Nothing but flat open road for miles. Like you can see straight there's no cars. You have these long stretches of road and you really expect me to do the speed limit? :x

 

[nelson999]

There is a road near my house where driving 40 on it feels slow. It's a road that should have a 40 or 45 speedlimit and it would be normal, but its 25.  it's terrible and i have no clue why it's like that.  

My buddy got a ticket on it for going 30 in his girls Pontiac Vibe 

 

 

[getyashinebox]

What's terrible is making a U-turn not at an intersection is illegal in the Commonwealth of Virginia. No exceptions, so I was told.

The road I got pinched on had "no U-turn" signs at 4 intersections in a row, so I took a right and U-turned on the side street, promptly got ticketed. BS law.

 

[everysingletime]

That's lame, but I guess it's nice that you don't have to perform 3 point turns for your driving exams Lol

Post of the day and its only 9:47am here in NY.

 

[andretti]

Went over my cousins house yesterday

I pull up and I see two bmws sitting outside . I knew the first one was his and that one is looking pretty right now

The other one is a 525 white pos . So I asked him who's it was he said he got it for free bla blah blah

He tells me to hop in and we go on this back road . Find out its a manual cause he was getting his fast and furious on with the gear shifter

He said he doesn't know what he's gonna do with it I told him to just restore it . Shouldn't take much it's mostly cosmetic (front number is so n the back seat) and maybe a tune up and repaint and he should be good to go

 

[andretti]

Speaking of cars my power steering and brakes went out last weekend and I almost hit this suv in my work parking lot

Can't wait to get my van out the shop man, might throw some slight mods at it to make it more fun to drive

#racevan

Is your car AWD?

Nah it's two wheel drive

I've seen soon vans like mines with a c4 suspension swap :x
