I was one of the first wrx owner when the fa20 came out, 2 years after ownership it started with its bullshit, less thank 18k miles... I was pissed of, I own a bugeye wrx, 2.5rs (love this thing), and a built 2005 sti, point is, I got the fa20 cause as a subie owner, your gonna have to replace the engine sooner or later... As a costumer, not a "fan", stay away from subaru... Specially after they admitted they knew there engines where faulty... Anyways, I apologise for the rambling, just, dont be a "fan", sounds weird... Im a car guy, not loyal to no brand, I also have a evo, and a s14 w rb25, and my little mini rhd...

I enjoy reviews that approach the car as if the viewer is now seeing it for the first time as there is a lot to these machines. But I also understand that you have your own approach. ✌️

18' WRX here, can confirm that there's a loss in 4k-5k rev range, but a tune clears this up. From shifting from gear 1 to 2 is also a bit notchy, adding a shift stop also helps! These changes definitely made the WRX a much better driving experience!

Yup

The "driveline shock" is because of rev hang. So when you shift too quickly the RPMs are slightly too high for your gear. If you shift slower the RPMs drop a bit and thus it engages better. Happens in my STI all the time. Interestingly if you put on the AC on, the RPMs drop way faster and you can shift quickly.

Update to owning one. Finally got to try mine in a real winter storm. Did purchase a second set of wheels and snow tires as it comes with SUMMER ONLY tires stock at least in the USA. With winters? PFFFFFF LOL what snow? I was plowing snow with my front bumper (we had a storm drop 11-13" ~25cm) of the stuff in my state which typically doesnt see snowfall that high like you Canadian boys do. Literally unstoppable. I had more fun driving it in snow than should have been legal. If you get lots of snow I really cant recommend this car enough (along with proper tires). It handles so predictably, so confidently that it really sets the standard for winter driving as far as Im concerned. Seriously the storm was bad. Took me 2.5hrs to get home during that storm. Just because no one else could get anywhere. Finally got on a side road to get around the people stuck going up hills. This car got me home safe. To give you an idea some people were stranded on the highways. Some stuck 6hrs+. Highways shut down. Also im averaging something like 27-28mpg highway.

I kept seeing these videos in my recommended, and I would look at the thumbnail, title, and caption, and assume it was another Motor Trend show so I would gloss over them.

Nice review and congrats on the YT Plaque!

"I don't collect anything," has an Omega X-33. I love this video by the way!

I used to have a 2010 WRX hatch. It was a blast to drive. In February 2018 , I need to replace it (need to rebuild the engine and issues) and I checked for the 2018 WRX. The problem is I wanted to be hatchback. Also, it was missing some tech feature like Android Auto and Apple Carplay. So I decided to take the GTI over the WRX. This special edition still on par with the GTI and focus ST. It’s just an expensive trim like any high end trim. I think if I have to choose a trim for the WRX it will be the 'Sport' one at 35k CAD. I just wish they come back with a hatchback body. Great review guys !

Can confirm. On my second wrx, the clutches have always been weird. They really dont drive like any other manual out there. Not bad, just takes a bit of time to get used to making it happy. Also yeah the 4000/4500 dip is there. The stock tune... yarp... what a pile its pretty lumpy some days. However. Beside that when this thing is smooth.... dear raptor jesus is it fun.

in the wrx, it's not a tuning issue. It is a small turbo/manifold issue. It chokes up top. Can be fixed to an extent with a better tune but it will still be there. e85 tends to fix it and strapping a bigger turbo and better manifold got rid of it completely for me.

Are you guys planning on doing a review of the 2019 STI?

The torque dip between 4000rpm and 6000rpm seems to be a weakness with the Sub boxer engines. It's one of the biggest complaints in the Toyota GT 86 and Sub BRZ. People who bought those cars would change the header exhausts to fix the problem and then flash tune it. I thought it was better with turbo charged engines but I guess not. I guess the stock exhaust manifold makes the car suffocate in its own exhaust gasses that's why installing a new header always fixed the problem in the GT 86 platform

@Snadzies

5 жыл бұрын

I have a 2018 WRX and can 100% confirm the engine falls on its face at around 5,000 rpm. I hear an ECU tune helps a lot, many people posting even simple stage 1 Cobb tunes saying "This is what the tune from the factory should be." I don't want to give up the warranty so early on, though, as I just hit 4,000 miles.

Sorry, this isn’t true for the STi, in fact it’s the opposite. The bigger turbo means it takes longer to spool, unlike the twin-scroll FA engine that the WRX uses. A lot of power comes from the 4000-5500 range.

@wisdomntshalintshali3296

5 жыл бұрын

Gavin Baker problem is not turbo lag. Turbo does kick around 2500 then you hit 4000 it's goes splat, then kicks back In after 5500.. This problem is with how they engineer the exhaust manifolds. With the NA engines in the BRZ as well as the GT 86 it would only improve after they replaced it with new header exhausts. Mazda, although not the same type engine figured out a way not only to enhance power but even improve efficiency by designing headers that are paired according to the engine's firing sequence to eliminate engine knock. I think the thing is exhaust pressure lingering in the exhaust manifold interferes with how the engine performs.

@jobob4321

5 жыл бұрын

It's the stock tune that's the issue. This car is set up from factory to be fun, but also conserve fuel. When the Turbo kicks in, the vehicle runs very lean (as most factory tunes do), you get the nice boost effect, smile on your face and then at 4500rpm it falls flat. The reason is the car running as lean as it does, its gonna start to pull timing to prevent knocking. The pulling of timing is the flat spot between 45-55 hundred. Why do you think you can get away with running regular fuel in the WRX? Get a proper tune, ditch the regular fuel for premium and the car will run as it should. Keep in mind too that if this WRX pulled as it should all the way through the rev range,.. it'd would be dangerously close to being called faster than the STi... so then how does Subaru sell the STi?

I just bought the American version of this car (Series.Gray), and it seems that they've addressed some of the problems you had with it in your original review. Subie grumble is back(somewhat), and they did some deletes to make it a little lighter and a little cheaper. No sunroof, SRH's, driveline shock doesn't seem too bad. Love the videos fellas, keep it up!

I love the fact that you included how your coffee will fit into the cup holders 😂😂😂

Hey Guys! sorry if anyone mentioned this already, but the part of the word Rai (雷) means lightning, which is why it is in words like thunderstorm, raichu (as Yuri stated) and Raiden from Mortal combat、etc. Just thought you guys would like to know! ps: awesome review/gucci gear!

Great video as always guys! I've got a 2018 base and I love it. I've noticed when the weather is better, under 25°C or so, the power drop around 4500-5500 doesn't happen, or is much less noticable.

I always get really enthousiastic when watching your video's. The mood quickly turns when i start searching and find local prices. You can pick up a normal WRX for no less than 108k Euro (124k USD) in the Netherlands. Fml.

I thought the NFC tag on the infotainment screen was cool. Simple and fast to connect your phone through bluethooth. Would love this feature in other cars :)

I really wonder if that Pikachu version will find any buyer amongst the Subie fans... I mean, if you are a fan of a brand, it is not because you love their “second best car”. You do not love the Merc E63 because the E43 is fantastic. You buy the E43 because it is a more reasonable choice. The same way you buy a Boxster because you cannot afford a 911... But how reasonable is a WRX which almost costs more than the base sti?

Some cars in this price range have fancy paint options for like $800+ USD and this sort of that plus some other changes. On the other hand it's only 100 units so it makes me wonder what's even the point? The only thing that really comes to mind for me is market research, so they can collect data telling them where they sold and how quickly/slowly, etc. to decide if they want to attempt a similar larger scale pricey trim down the line.

Also - no mention of the Civic Type R being the exact same price??? That's what I bought after my WRX and the CTR is on a whole other plane as far as performance goes, especially quality of damping & handling.

Thanks for saying bamboozled Jacob! You guys are a breath of fresh air in car reviews.

If only they take this engine, put in a bigger turbo and put it in the STI.

Thank you for the detailed review guys! I wanted to mention here that I did have a 2018 WRX sport tech RS for 6 months. Couldn't live with it in the city. The suspension bottomed out over medium bumps, the rev hang made it hard for me to out-accelerate a corolla since I would have to be gentle with the clutch, the rattles bugged me, and the jurid brakes made an embarrassing squeak as I was coming to a stop light....Got a lot of weird looks from people at the bus stop from this squeak. Also it was loud inside so I could not enjoy the harman kardon stereo. Mileage was at 11L/100km for me so not that great. Other than that, the car was super cool to look at, the entry and exit was easy and was a very practical sedan. Unfortunately I sold it off due to the negatives. I hope Subaru has got something really good coming in 2020 for this model.

P Cho I live in downtown Miami which means insane stop and go traffic accompanied by terrible, old, bumpy roads. I have my WRX on springs and feel even the slightest crack on the road. Still worth it for me but I can see how it can make you get rid of the car. Hope you enjoyed while you had it!

Love your videos, so funny!

Good review fellas. Like the chemistry, no homo. Lol

jacob, love the skx007 with the nato band! great watch haha

The way these cars are packaged is the frustrating part. In the US we cannot get Recaros and LED lights without getting a special edition. That is the only case in which it would be worth it. Your comments on driving WRX manuals differently is spot on. I own a GTI 6MT and a WRX 6MT and I definitely still have driveline shock in the WRX. At times a bit embarrassing but the transmission feel (as Jakub noted) is pretty amazing still. Flawed car, but lovable.

Is this limited edition worth buying? Would you get this, another WRX model, a base STi, a Golf R, a...?!?!

I think its called the Hyundai N blue 😂

Love that color, and the white straight pipes shirt lol.

I have a '17 Focus ST with a Roush catback exhaust and I've had a few run-ins with some WRX's. They'll always be quicker off the line than an ST because of the drivetrain but they aren't really faster. I can more than hang with a WRX but the real joy of an ST is the feel and handling. However, I like the idea of doing a comparison: WRX vs. GTI vs. ST. And not only with performance but in feel and driveability.
