- I mean-- - Okay, all right (chuckles)
are we recording?
I'm trying everything I can to not kill Max.
All right, welcome back to another episode
where we take a look at your cars,
today is a Subaru Special,
so I brought in a Subaru guy. This is Trey.
(dramatic music)
Operations Lead for Fitment Industries,
and he also owns a Subaru.
What do you got? - Yes, sir.
So I've got a 2012 STI, a third engine,
so I think I know a little bit ,something,
about, you know, Subarus and the platform itself.
- Sounds like every Subaru owner
I've ever talked to in my life.
- Hey, blown up engine number three, desk coaster.
- That is actually your piston too.
- Yeah, this is actually the one out of my car,
so super clapped.
(country music)
- There we go,
so there's some cred.
We got some street cred on the reviewing,
but tap into this. Don't forget to add your car
over at fitmentindustries.com
forward slash add so you can add to the gallery
and have us take a look at it
and help thousands of enthusiasts find their fitment.
That's enough of the spiel,
(indistinct) fitmentindustries.com.
Let's get into the first car of the day.
- All right. - Okay,
so, we have a 2011 Subaru WRX STI,
and it's a broader TS-10s,
18 by 10 and a half plus six square set of obviously,
cause all wheel drive reasons
- Yes, sir.
- On some Nitto Neo Gens 215/40,
that's a bit of a stretch on there, okay,
and, some good old fashioned airlift
to perform the air suspension,
the owner is Dylan Jengle.
- Oh yeah,
- That's a cool ass name.
- I like it. I can see here.
- From the owner we have some upper rear control arms,
lower control arms, two arms,
really negative 11 camber built block,
probably because it blew up
at some playful Alexandra swayed dash. That's a flex,
with clock delete.
Oh, clock delete gauge pod.
- Okay, okay I was like, what.
- Recaro seats, Grip Royal wheel.
I don't need time.
(country music)
This thing is a stunt Subaru,
we got the reverse lip on the broadest,
whoo, fender to lip fitment.
- Okay, hell yeah. I love that color too, it's super deep.
- Yeah. I like the carbon fiber trunk, the vortex generator,
the diffuser.
- The wing delete on the STI. The trunk there.
- The rear of the car is very aggressive,
it has those rear control arms
kind of stick out a little too much for me and my taste,
but it's cool, say in the aftermarket.
- They clash a little bit with the red,
but, you know, you can notice them.
- I do like the lift kit on here that floats out,
you got the canards, you got the side skirts,
you got the lip, and then all the rear arrow.
- Looks like two on the front,
he's got like the OEMassive style headlights,
so typically those are only offered for the WRX,
so it's really cool to see them retrofitted on an STI.
- Oh, damn.
- Cause in order to keep like the HIDs,
you either got to get rid of them or change the halogens.
So, it's super sick.
- Definitely taken your rally car
and turn into something else, but I don't mind it.
I like Sans cars, so this one looks good to me.
- I think it's super sick, super clean build.
Honestly, build the car your way, the way you want to,
f the haters.
- And his license plate, I just realized it's Deez Nuts.
- Deez Nuts? (man laughs)
- So that's kind of cool.
All right, so let's give it a rate out of 10,
10 being the best Subaru STI you've ever seen,
one being the absolute worst.
Three, two,
one,
eight and a half. - Eight
You always got to start off
kind of modest in the beginning.
You don't know where the episodes are gonna go,
but we're on a similar page.
All right, moving on to the next car.
We have a 2017 STI on Kansei Rokus,
18 by nine and a half plus 38, on Michelin pilot sport 4s.
A nice tire. I run that on the sub.
255 35 unfortunate auto coilovers.
I also run those on the sub.
- Subs are functional looking
Yeah, owner is Ray STI 6.
Some information from the owner is Eastwood Fender Roller.
So he used an Eastwood Fender Roller to roll defenders
I'm assuming.
Tucking tires with fenders rolled,
negative 2 Canberra all around,
turbo XS front Mount inner cooler machine
modal short rate intake, parent inlet,
TGV deletes, AM fuel pump cobbs stumbled kit,
cobb access port and video countless downpipe green speed,
EBC S 93 octane tune and pro tuned by all the drive too.
- Cool thing. Funny story.
My car is actually tuned by all wheel drive tuning as well.
- Hey, nice.
Before or after the blow up? That's key
- After the blow up.
- There it is. They're good, they're good.
Your car has been running trunk for a while.
- Absolutely, a hundred percent recommended.
- I think this is a solid build.
It's nothing too crazy.
The subtle accents of red throughout
really pull it together.
You can see like in the grill there behind it,
you got a little bit already got the under glow
and then I believe it has red lug nuts too
so, red is a really strong color,
you just sprinkle it throughout and it turns out decent.
- It ties the whole thing together too.
- I think the only thing that's bugging me about it is like,
it's all clean and simple,
and the splitter odds just really stand out to me
with this one, they kind of, they're just there.
- Some people are all about them.
- I had them on my ST,
I'm not saying that I dislike them
just in this scenario, I think--
- I think maybe if they were like black,
you'd like them a little bit better?
- Yeah, maybe a little more subtle
or maybe a lip that you could run without them I don't know.
Overall I liked the subtleness of the build,
I think it goes well, and it's a nice beat,
the piece out of it functional set up.
(upbeat music)
- Ranking my day, the world isn't as crazy as it is now.
Guess with 50 cents, I could buy my pops some cigarettes.
(man chuckles)
Life was good, but now, now it's a different story.
The world is a changed place
and sometimes we need a little extra help
and, well that's, that's okay.
I'm here to tell you everything will be fine.
Oftentimes you browse our website fitmentindustries.com,
and think damn, I can't afford this, but then you see it,
the light at the end of the tunnel.
You see that fitmentindustries.com offers as low as 0%,
financing through a firm, and now you can sit back, relax,
crack open a beer juice box
while you wave to your brand new wheels
to hit your doorstep.
What the (beep) was that? (chuckles)
Ready to rate it?
- Yes, sir.
- Okay, three, two, one,
eight-- - Eight and a half.
- Oh, well we swapped on the first to the second.
- Of course - Okay. Alrighty.
Ooh, we got a hatch.
So this is a 2010 STI handsome Volk RE-30's,
19 by nine plus 44, kind of high offset,
on some Nitto NT555 245 40 on Megan racing coilovers.
This is Dom_Chang_ STI,
Full-Bolt-On screen
on 35 horsepower. Nice.
Invidia Catless Down Pipe, ready exhaust engine intake,
P&L equal length headers,
oh, equal length headers.
Oh, most you see where you guys go with the unequal length?
- Yeah
- Interesting, okay.
- I know I kept them on there so.
- Mishimoto radiator state street Kulach,
[Both] brutal.
You're getting that leg workout.
He literally put in parentheses, brutal, cobb excess port,
of course E-bay lip skirts.
And then we got some carbon rear spats.
We have a quarter inch spacer in the front,
no spacers in the rear, stance is nearly flush.
- I wonder if he had to put that spacer in there
to create a brand look
- Might've but also like, I don't know,
I'm looking at these are higher offset wheel
and they look a little bit sunk to me,
you know like you could definitely,
you got a little room to play on.
- Hella horns
- I feel like, yeah, you got hella horns too.
That's another thing I think I'm kind of,
I'm done with them, all right.
I've seen them a lot, I think I'm over them.
- Dude those add like--
- They are loud you honk, I've heard you do it.
- I pumped--
- They be loud as (beep)
I love the hatches though.
- Yeah, patches are super timeless,
I kind of wished they would have kept it going
all the way to the new generation,
like imagine a 15 to 21 hatch.
Would've been super sick.
- And don't get me wrong I love Volk,
but I'm not the biggest fan of the RE-30s.
I think some like work emotion D-9 RE,
is there something like that.
- D-9 RE or like Kwame two pieces--
- Ohh, yeah
- Super clean.
- Definitely, you don't keep that functional,
but they, I just liked the look of those a bit more.
I'd like to see a little bit more arrow on this one.
I really like when they take the,
this body style with the hatch and they do the bling,
I don't know what wing it is.
- It's almost like a rally wind.
It lifts it up.
- Yeah. Like I love how that looks on these.
So that would be some feedback from me.
What do you think of it Trey.
- Yeah. I think it's super sick.
Again, it seems like an OEM Plus kind of build
you get the wheels it's lowered a little bit,
but I feel like you can do a little bit more
to kind of like make it your own and make it stand out.
Then after that I think we're super sick.
Maybe like some aftermarket headlights
changed up the hood a little bit, maybe like a splitter.
- Oh, all right. Cool.
Let's rate this three, two, one,
six and a half - Seven
- Not too shabby, all right.
The final car of the day,
we got the good old Blobeye of 2005 STI,
on some Enkei NTO3 80 miner a half
plus 40 federal 595 245/40 on case sport, coilovers.
This is Zimzam_STI,
and some notes from the owner from wheel spacers half inch,
no rear wheel spacers poking a little bit,
but no rubbing or scrubbing.
So definitely a bit of a meteor set up,
and then you can see too it keeps those coilovers
a little bit higher,
probably because it has the thicker tires on here,
an aggressive wheel.
But man, I love how those wheels look on there,
and I got to say personally for me,
the Blobeye is my favorite generation STI.
- It is - I'm on team Hawkeye,
I can't lie, I had one.
I had normal 6 STI, I loved it to death.
Same chassis though, so it's all the same luck.
You know what I mean? - Gotcha.
- Wheels on here look super clean, big fan of them too.
They're almost like timeless looking on this chassis.
- 100%. Dude with the Blobeyes I, less is more to me,
I love how the circus,
I like the exhaust coming out of the back of that
canon there, you know what I'm saying?
If I were to ever get an STI,
I would want it to be a white Blobeye and I don't know why
maybe it's cause I watched a Goulburn Race too many times
or something, I don't know.
But, I love these cars, and I think something simple
like this looks timeless, it looks clean,
and like, I would break my neck,
if this was driving on the road.
I don't know why the simplicity of it,
I just liked so much but, it looks good.
- It just don't seem clean anymore.
- True. - Honestly like
all the ones you see around town
or at least go to meetings and stuff they're all,
they're either super overdone or super crap, honestly--
- They'll it out.
- Hey, I'm just being honest, seeing them this old
and this clean? Super awesome.
- Sick. All right, Let's give her a rate ski.
Three, two, one
- [both] 8.5
- Yeah, I'm right there too.
I do love Bob myself.
So that is taking a look at some of the STI
from our gallery.
Let us know your thoughts down below
and what you'd rate them because I'd like to see.
And then Trey, before we leave,
I need you to do your best impression of dial up internet
(Trey vrooms )
That's honestly better than most of them on the show,
so I'll give you that one.
Here is our site fitmentindustries.com
and get your car out of the gallery
so we can review it and you can help
hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts find their femin.
Talk to you later.
We should probably go check on like your oil, level.
We should see if there's any shiny flakes in the oil,
stuff like that. We should go launch it.
Let's go launch your car.
- I've done it once and you were in it, it felt terrible.
- How much horsepower is it at?
- 447 All wheel horsepower. This is what it looks like.
- It does rip. It's pretty quick.
It's quick. Let's go break it.
Oh,
