Despite of the beautiful works on the rebuilt, your cinematic shoot is absolutely amazing. Especially those timelapse, always fascinating.

Very interesting. I never would have thought to dismember the rods from the pistons to complete a tear down. However the access ports for the wrist pin clips was pretty neat!

This video just makes me appreciate how easy American OHV V8 based engines are to work on,specifically the LS platform...

@Eze&Yare Dominguez this is a very simple engine. Once you do two or three you would be able to remember all the pieces and parts easily. It just looks complex when you do it first time. All the parts are high quality and fit easily. Unlike some.

@Brett i have a B7 S4 & thus block seems more complicated than the bbk v8 i have

Just to add a quick note, the LH cam gears that are loaded are easy to mess up and bend the valves, they didnt do it the right way. The intake gear needs to be spun clockwise, the exhaust gear needs to be spun counter clockwise. Most of the time you can get away with doing it like they did but theres enough spring pressure that if one of the gears slips it will catch the edges of the valves and will easily bend them, and no one ever checks after they do it which can lead to the car running like crap, or turning the valves into a tossed salad.

isnt it the other way around? for unloading the cams the intake goes counterclockwise exhaust goes clock wise

I don't think they are that easy to bend. I believe it's more of a precaution, so you don't take a impact or a breaker bar to the bolts. I'm picturing some ding dong kicking the breaker bar like he/she is trying to crack lugnuts on the side of 95.

@Natedoc808

the Key being to make sure the crank alignment mark and oil pump mark are lined up so the pistons are mid stroke and you don't bend the valves.

Today I learned that I infact don't want to build a Subaru engine. Nam is a Subaru god great job and finesse.

Awesome vid guys. Thanks for sharing. Love the content on this project so far!

I love the way You teach. Thank You so much!

Subaru flat motors are a lot like harley or other older vtwin style engines that have vertically split cases. Thats pretty neat to see how it breaks down to such a small engine block that a guy can move it around on the table.

I’d love to rebuild one after watching this! A good challenge

Best automotice channel hands down!

really good video quality. straight to the point and informative

Very refreshing watching a mechanic that is able to explain things in detail without pausing every 3 seconds to figure out what they're actually doing, or not knowing any of the terminology to describe the function of a component

Thanks guys, it's a good video, very professional and instructive and educational, I learned a lot. I want to tell you that I really appreciate it.

I really want to appreciate you guys for this!!

great video , I've always been curious about how the block is parted thanks , removing the piston clips & pins was an eye opening , only flat 4 I've done was a VW this is way different obviously due to water cooling and overhead camshafts & cambelts and with VW the bores/barrels can be slide out of the crankcasing , knowledge and being methodical clearly is the only way to go with the Scooby engine, doesn't appear too difficult to dismantle I'm sure the rebuilding has lots of do's and don'ts that aren't so obvious at first ,cheers

video is very good. throughly explains everything and speaks slow but a good pace so u can understand. keep up the good work man :)

Disassembling these engines is always fun.

Killer video! I feel like rebuilding mine will be no prob with this video! But I'm curious about the steps that you fast forward past right before you split the block.. why didn't you show what to do there?

This helped alot

I’ve had 4 Subaru’s and I currently own a built 2017 STI and I can tell you it’s cheaper to just buy a built block and rework whatever heads you have than rebuild. You can buy a built short block and get a 1 year warranty and still come out cheaper than rebuilding a 2.0 or 2.5

Great video

Oh shit... I know Dave from Headgames. He does amazing work. Good dude.

@BP-fx3qc

I send all heads to them from every motor i work on. Top notch.

For the Cam gears: when you shear off a hardened 3/4” drive Allen trying to break it free, the factory may be fucking up putting them on that tightly. Strangely enough my USDM EJ205T had the hex shank to secure the cam from spinning but there is no way these bolts being so insanely difficult were torqued at the factory to the spec outline in the FSM. Edit: be very very careful with the cam bolts if doing HGs in the car, have to use a shallow, 6 point 10mm socket and be sure to tap the socket on deeply as the cam bolt heads are quite prone to stripping.

I used j20 cylinder heads for the j 25 turbo engine, but I did somes modifications with the j 20 cylinder heads to work with the engine j 25

Awesome!! After seeing this I dont think I ever want a sti lol

nice video,Im looking to rebuld a 2011 outback engine

Is there any video on speed academy on what and how to transfer parts from jdm to usdm engine

fyi, i owned a USDM 2.0 WRX wagon, and it has cable throttle. I believe in the US, the EJ257/ej255 was the first engines to get DBW. and the 2.0L EJ was no longer in US WRX after 2005.

Hey, I have a probl em with my automatic gearbox for subaru forester 1998 model, where gear 2 and 4 fails! Please can you give ideas on understanding where the problem is or a video on how it works

Question: Nam said that on the USDM engines, there are no hex on the camshafts to put a wrench on to and if you don't have a special tool, there is another way to loosen the bolts. I have a stock US motor and no special tool. What is "the other way" to loosen and remove the cam gear bolts?

I love your videos I have a question is it possible to develop 150hp of an ej25 at 2100 rpm I would like to install on an amateur aircraft with no gear box

Put this motor in a Factory Five 818 C . I am going for a WRX STI in the coupe I am building. 1900 lbs pushed by 310 horsepower. What a rocket.

Looking at the complexity of this boxer engine, no wonder why Suby's engine repair cost usually more than a traditional inline 4.

Brilliant.

I worked with cars for several years but nothing like replacing piston rings and seals. I got 2010 subaru forester 2.5l and I probably need to do that soon. I already got low compression on cylinder 4 @70psi. I didn't try the restore lubricant yet but if I try to rebuild the engine with new piston rings and seals and learning as I go with repair guide and some help... How long would it take me. I want to learn this stuff, do it right and use my subaru to learn it.

Hey can I use the EJ22 engine it that the same as the engine your rebuilding now, I want to also know can I put EJ25 heads onto this block?

Tons of VWs have Subaru engines. This might be a nice upgrade for a 914 if you feel like exhuming one! A transplant you won't do is fairly popular among pilots, put a Subaru engine in a plane. They like it because it does not shake at all and has good power. It is not approved by the FAA but the approved engines are dynasaurs!
