Hey man , the Subaru type RA (555) specifically was produced to celebrate the 555 Motorsport team that Colin McRae drove for in the 90s. I'm actually from the same town as Colin McRae in Scotland. Also state express 555 is an Asian cigarette company or was, they were the WRC Subaru sponsor
I was just about to comment that you missed all the Subies, especially the GC8's! GC8 collector here myself is happy to see you're looking at them now! Love all JDM car's though. Here in NZ & over the ditch in AUZ GC8's are becoming like gold nuggets! Love your JDM content, keep it coming. I also watch "Capt Two6" on UA-cam in Japan/US, ever meet up with him?
Yeah I recommend people to buy gc8s from aus not Japan cuz they got way less rust got one over in australia with a heap of sti bits cheap and the car has not a spot of rust at 170k kms because it was in Queensland and garage kept, what gc8s you got?
Buying a Subaru holy batballs I never thought I would ever hear sammit say buying a Subaru in the same sentence 😳 let's see if it actually happens 🤞 learn rally in the Subaru.... track the Evo ...drift the s15 ...cruise the Gtr .....may drifting the Z .....you are going to have content after content it's going to be a 🔥 year 👏👏👌👊👍
I hope he buys a soobie, hope he knows not to buy one from Japan but rather he should buy from australia as they are way cheaper and no rust, would b3 a great car for when he’s back in australia
Type RA is basically the lightest version of the STi you could buy back in the day. That car comes with a EJ20k which is an open deck block and could probably handle 350whp before you blow it up. That roof scoop actually funnels in a ton of air at speed because AC wasn't standard on the Type RA trim. I think being a V-Limited meant that it was kind of loaded though and it even came with a rare 5spd DCCD trans with a 4.44 final drive that made these things feel super quick. Subarus are awesome, even here in America where we get all of the step child trash lol
The 1st gen Impreza, referred to as the "Classic" is the only generations WRX/STI that got the sedan, wagon and coupe bodystyle. If its with a roof scoop, then its a Type RA (like what you seen) and usually don't have a/c, abs, electric windows for weight savings ... then the 2 doors are referred to as the Type-R. The red Mazda RX7 seems to have a rare A-Spec bumper - memories from Gran Turismo .... And that R33, how does it still have the standard exhaust :)
Delete this if not allowed, but I have done a video going over my personal Impreza and going through all the extras they came with - ua-cam.com/video/nMmYkuINEAg/v-deo.html
thr roof scoop indicates its a v-limited only the limited models have a roof scoop BUT not every limited has one i have a sti v4 type r myself without roof scoop
Watch out for head gasket failure, a good way to tell is look in the oil cap for a white creamy substance or check how much coolant there is because there might be a leak. Oil also can leak out the value cover which is a common problem. There are sometimes suspension issues but I image you would change them for rally driving. Try getting a 6 speed I don’t no from experience but I have heard they are stronger than the five speed I not sure if all model came with six speed but I guess you can do some research around that I hope some of this is useful, keep up the good work 👍
The 5 speed is literally a Handgranate if you throw more power at it, you'll never know when it is going to explode. The sti models always come with the 6 speed wich is very capable and strong, the wrx comes with the 5 speed :)
Yes more Subaru content please….oh and the small roof vent is designed for rally cars as they don’t have aircon, these little vents will create a surprising amount of air in ur cabin 🤘
Answer to the S13 tail light question, after doing copious amounts of research and looking through back catalogues I've determined that they are indeed, gross!
If you're after an older bugeye/blob/hawk WRX try find one that has had the failure prone original driveline swapped out to an ej207 and 6 speed manual, otherwise just go for an STI as they have that engine/gearbox. Factory forged internals and 350kw+ capable gearbox. Having a good tune is key, ideally go a speed density tune to delete the MAF sensor as they fail too
Clickbait Sam coming in clutch once again... actual bidding starts at 30m into a 32m video and lasts for about a minute. That yellow NSX likely needed those add on turn signals for inspection purposes. The US cars only had front turn signals + side markers. Our cars generally didn't have side turn signals until fairly recently. Edit: That reminds me, at least in the case of my V35 anyway, when I got the JDM tail lights they did not have the integrated side marker LEDs that the US lights had, they were replaced with reflectors. That was a thing people often did when cloning a US car into a JDM one, deleting the rear side markers. Especially in the 90s/00s. Also, passed by a stupid clean looking 06-07 hawkeye Sti for the Cresta, The Type RA was cool, but the Blob behind it was probably more the speed for what I'm assuming the Subaru would be intended for.
Loving the content Sammit, new subscriber and your up beat attitude and knowledge is helping me learn more about jdm cars. I have always been a muscle car guy owning my 68' camaro, may look into a japanese car in the future!
Buy a bug eye. Remember it's the cars no one wanted that becomes sort after. Like the 33gtr and dr30. And if you want to build a Rally car most of its cheap but U going to need the sti box. It's like what an r200 and a 33box for Nissan. The sti box is an engineering masterpiece with a front/rear touque split that is adjustable. Trust me on the sti box. I'm not a Subaru guy. I'm Nissan through and through. But learnt a bit about the rexys over the years. U don't need huge power to be a fast rally car. You need the sti box (did I mention that already) Raised suspension. A good set of rally tyres. A cage a set of harnesses and your racing. The best rally car is one you can reshell for cheap money. The bug eye is perfect
I would absolutely love the Subaru videos if you ever got one. They are literally my favourite car and I really want to buy a WRX but don’t have the money right now. Been waiting for some subie content for a while I think it would be awesome. Keep up the good work👍
Yes bug eye all the way!!! Get a nice sti with the 6 speed or even a clapped out one, super easy to rebuild once you know the platform. I'll take an an ej20 over the ej25 any day
6 years ago I was about to pull the trigger on Importing a Bugeye sti type RA to the UK paid a deposit & had a guy looking at cars going through the actions prices were climbing even then especially on RA's to the point I could of got a Hawkeye sti for similar money...then we had an economic downturn & that dream was taken away from me 🙄......yea the bugeye type RA has some cool parts on it as opposed to a stock sti😎😎
Look out for rear quarters in the arches on bugeye and Gc chassis. Tend to see that a lot even in non salted areas in the states.. in the end your gonna have to build a motor for it anyways to make it what you want so buy one you know isn’t perfect
Hey sam the roof scoop is a cool thing to have on a rally car. what i picked from rally team breakdown of their car mods when your windows are closed or changed to plastic ones to save weight and your heater is turned on to cool the engine it gets real hot inside and some fresh air from air scoop does help a lot
I am looking for a 1998 TACOMA SR5 PICKUP AUTOMATIC....... Can you find one? I need a Japan frame..not that AMERICAN FRAME.....BETTER UNDER CARRIAGE.....IN JDM
That broken thing in the radiator of the chaser looks like the guts from a pressure gauge. The body of it probably broke off. Would've had a needle and a round face with numbers. Definitely something that was added to read pressure and not need a digital gauge.
Besides nobody's doing trucks are all about getting these little cars and these s15s and cressidas and two Jay Z's and all kinds of R32 33 34 35 maybe supras all kinds of junk I want to build a SUCKER PUNCH TRUCK I GOT THE MOTOR I GOT THE TRANSMISSION AND DIFFERENTIAL I'M ALMOST READY TO ROCK JUST NEED THAT FRAME
Subarus are well balanced cars. Low center of gravity, good low end torque, decent high end output when boosted. Lots of fun off road or in the snow. Gotta reinforce the engine though if you want to avoid frequent rebuilds. EJ engines are near bulletproof until you strap a turbo on them, imo. AWD systems are pretty decent too. Big aftermarket for them.
Bro. You spend more time bidding on cars that you’ll never buy than actually working on cars you actually own. FINISH THE R32! FINISH THE Z! FINISH THE S15! Don’t even get me started on the evo lol. Come on, man! *insert joe byron voice*
What would you recommend as a JDM with a $50K budget? Must be manual and my top priority would be fun to drive even if it isn't the quickest. Hoping to get something imported to Guam and have the government pay to ship it back to the states for me.
My second turbo car was a SUBARU IMPREZA! Great drivers car. my first turbocharged ( not that your gonna be interested 🤣)car was a RENAULT 5 GT TURBO! 👊✊💥💨💨💨 nice🦢
So we’re only looking at Nissans?????? I saw a badass s2k didn’t even bat an eye! DUUUUDE THERE IS A GR YARIS RIGHT THERE UGh WHYYYY ALL NISSANSSSSSSSSSS
SAMMIT, I might be wrong, but I think that there are only 2 yellow NSXs (from factory) in the world. One is in Portugal, and the second is in a museum, in Germany. The legend has it, that there was a Portuguese business owner that wanted a yellow NSX, as a tribute to Ayrton Senna. The portuguese and european Honda told him it wasn't possible to do that, so he went to the japanese Honda, and justified why the yellow color (although Senna had a red NSX in his Portuguese home), and Honda ended up on making the only two yellow NSXs that were ever produced. (this was just a short version of the story, 'cause I think it wasn't this simple...)
gc8 came both as wrx and sti as ra and r. ra is the race altered version so its a bit lighter has no abs, little bit bigger brakes, plated rear diff instead of a visco and most importantly a stronger gearbox with DCCD and 65:35 torque plit letting you skid instead of understeer. (dccd only came in the sti tho) they type r is the 2 door coupe variant then the ra and is technical almost identical but worth twice as much. i would either get a abse gc8 wrx which is the cheapest ot and sti ra if you want have the right material from the get go. i have a sti v4 type r myself :)
Hello Sam. I don't understand ? you can look at an Evo 6 RS (or 5 with this white gauges) , not a GSR one, to take informations on the almost exact car that you have (TME RS = Evo 6 RS, appart from the front bumper and minor changes), and you pass to another car in less than 1 minute...
Type RA Limited STi GC8 would be a track toy to drive v7 ej207 with the large port head higher stock rev limiter 4.444 gearings helical center diff would pull outta the corners enough to scare many people not expecting it
Buy that subaru and send me the motor that type ra block is worth good money ra block is semi closed deck. But I love the bumper on that rx7 it was so badass. But as for cheap cars in thought my subaru legacy GT limited was a scam guy had paperwork for $23k in parts with mofe new parts in box's way to cheap. I drove 4 hours and actually got what he posted. I was waiting for it to be stolen or something but I got 40k invested in cat now and 500awhp
I own an Imported subaru legacy gtb twin turbo. Mines an auto so it has the ej206. If you're looking into subarus obviously head gasket issues also make sure to check oil frequently as subaru motors consume a decent bit of oil. And then from there it's basic car maintenance and the car would run fine. Most stock bottom end subaru motors can only hold about 350 ish safely depending on a few things and such. But you can build the bottom end and obviously go for more power. Also if you're looking at what I assume will mainly be imprezas the 5 speed transmission are apparently glass so try to look for the sti 6 speed Trans which holds up better. Parts are a bit hard to find for the imported subaru stuff where I am, but that shouldn't be an issue for you in Japan haha
When browsing the auction yard, have you considered looking at something other than clapped out Skylines, Silvia's, and Corollas?.. The couple of videos I've watched, I've found myself going "Oh look, another fkn skyline" while you wet yourself over it..
You can get a wrx and sell the catalytic converters to recoup a lot of the money. They have 2 cats and they sell for $1200 each 🤑. People in the states are buying the old 2002 wrx hatches for $2500-3000, selling the cats, and getting a free car
Man i love your content but hate it at the same time. You always skip over so many cool cars to just look at rust. Nobody cares about rust. We just want to see the cars. Like the Datsun z, or the wrx wagon, or the 1st gen skyline you past next up right next to that rusted s15 you looked at for 5 min. And I really wanted to see the hard top white mr2! Ughh so frustrating!
A think that subaru is cool 😎 👌 🔰 special edition. Lots of good spec. WRX sticker is the original cool one . Think they used type RA as the rally car , the coupes were too dear, but welded the rear doors closed . Could be entirely wrong. But something stands out about that model
Is there any chance of making a video at the auctions going over the different things there. I mean how many S15’s and R34’s can we really look at. All the same. Show us some of those cool kei cars, and exotics and Century’s and stuff. We don’t all want to see the same cars always. Thanks.
Glad to see you showing the contact of how much these cars are it is funny though that you can buy the cars in us a lot cheaper someday I'll get an R34 it is too expensive but at all the vehicles I ever owned in my life and I own muscle cars German cars Nissan Toyota Honda I would have to say Toyota and Nissan are the most reliable cars which is crazy how amazing they last they could be 25 years old and they still run like brand new almost they might burn a little oil May the horsepower a little less gas mileage maybe for a mile a little less but besides that they run great that's why the old cars are better you buy an old car and you review everything and it'll last you another 30 years and they're better have a good weekend you 🙏🏻❤️💪👍
Best bang for the buck is the bugeye sti. Cheap because people find it ugly but great performance and easy to mod. Gc8 stis and blob/hawkeyes stis are way more expensive
You keep jumping over all the mr2 lol..amd the taillights were actually some ebay brand from a few years back I had same aet i paid 220 for the pair new in box
So I’m just getting into cars because I’m starting to think they are really cool I’m sort of a late bloomer 15 but whatever what I wanted to ask was can someone tell me how you can tell the r32 r33 and r43 apart it would be cool if I could get help
Sam when I come bid I'm giving u the biggest finder fee lol. that should be ur side channel. Help westerners not get ripped off. Cuz we are all car guys and want what we paid for.
buy jdmcars in sweden, norway, finland and denmark, still fairly cheap here. Atleast way cheaper than US n other places where some of "my" contentcreators are from
Any 2018 nissan from amaerica is garbage try me I can prove it easily and the 4 doors will be the coolest soon enough, nothing better then sending 5 people with comfort
Thank you for blessing our friday with 30 minutes of looking at JDM cars, good start to the weekend.
Exactly
Minori?
Agreed just wish he would start them up🥲
Subaru should make rally cars again. It's been 25 years since they won a WRC Championship.
They last won a championship 22 years ago

That WRX is probably the best looking subaru ever made, would love to own one
There’s a person on my road he owns 2 fully rally speced wrx’s
21:05 In Initial D 4th stage, Keisuke had that bumper for a while until he hit a guard rail and changed to the one everyone knows now.
its known as the mazda speed A-spec kit
Btw the 4 door gc8 sti is a type RA and the 2 door is a type R

YES!!! I have been wanting some Subaru content. I have one for my first car.
Yes can not wait for some Suby content bring it on.

Also if you're looking at what I assume will mainly be imprezas the 5 speed transmission are apparently glass so try to look for the sti 6 speed Trans which holds up better. Parts are a bit hard to find for the imported subaru stuff where I am, but that shouldn't be an issue for you in Japan haha
When browsing the auction yard, have you considered looking at something other than clapped out Skylines, Silvia's, and Corollas?..
The couple of videos I've watched, I've found myself going "Oh look, another fkn skyline" while you wet yourself over it..
Should get some builds done bro . Didn’t you get an evo , 350z and a r32 ? Have I missed a heap of videos or ?
You can get a wrx and sell the catalytic converters to recoup a lot of the money. They have 2 cats and they sell for $1200 each 🤑. People in the states are buying the old 2002 wrx hatches for $2500-3000, selling the cats, and getting a free car
Man i love your content but hate it at the same time. You always skip over so many cool cars to just look at rust. Nobody cares about rust. We just want to see the cars. Like the Datsun z, or the wrx wagon, or the 1st gen skyline you past next up right next to that rusted s15 you looked at for 5 min. And I really wanted to see the hard top white mr2! Ughh so frustrating!
Gotta get either a blob eye or a hawk eye and if you buy a subi keep the motor stock they like to blow up
Subarus BUILT by A RUSSIAN..... CLUTCHES BURN AND EXPENSIVE......GOTTA HAVE AT LEAST 3 PER RACE.......STREET OR RALLYE
A think that subaru is cool 😎 👌 🔰 special edition. Lots of good spec. WRX sticker is the original cool one . Think they used type RA as the rally car , the coupes were too dear, but welded the rear doors closed . Could be entirely wrong. But something stands out about that model
Is there any chance of making a video at the auctions going over the different things there. I mean how many S15’s and R34’s can we really look at. All the same. Show us some of those cool kei cars, and exotics and Century’s and stuff. We don’t all want to see the same cars always. Thanks.
The sick crown wagon next to the Supra is what I’d be bidding on 🤤
IDK if he's uninterested with the "POSSIBLY" Evo X or just a lancer ex beside the r34 or missed it. It made me sad he skipped it.
The wind was very bad on this one Sammit I know you can't help it but you couldn't hear much cos of it that's all mate OK,,,,,just letting you know.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the Subaru WRX Type RA V-Limited is like the Evo TME of the Subaru world?
Hi summit I really like Mitsubishi Evo cars..can you make a video about Mitsubishi Evo cars at Japan Auction?😊
Nsx running light in front shuckin REQUIRE S that.... Not enough LIGHTS on the American nsx
Glad to see you showing the contact of how much these cars are it is funny though that you can buy the cars in us a lot cheaper someday I'll get an R34 it is too expensive but at all the vehicles I ever owned in my life and I own muscle cars German cars Nissan Toyota Honda I would have to say Toyota and Nissan are the most reliable cars which is crazy how amazing they last they could be 25 years old and they still run like brand new almost they might burn a little oil May the horsepower a little less gas mileage maybe for a mile a little less but besides that they run great that's why the old cars are better you buy an old car and you review everything and it'll last you another 30 years and they're better have a good weekend you 🙏🏻❤️💪👍
Next content body work! So you can paint all your cars The YASHIDO FACTORYfactory pink
Finally whoooo Subaru. Have you seen the liberty/legacy b4, twin turbo ej20 that makes like 250 hp to like 280
Best bang for the buck is the bugeye sti. Cheap because people find it ugly but great performance and easy to mod. Gc8 stis and blob/hawkeyes stis are way more expensive
By making up for your sins towards the Subaru community, go back and revisit the 22B you missed and never appreciated 😭😂
The golden times for Japanese car auctions seem to finally be over - well at least for buyers. 😕
Look over the subarus. It’s actually annoying hearing myself yell at my phone wondering why you pass looking over a bug. Bruhhh
i'm 17 turning 18 this year wand i drive a 2006 subaru hatchback wrx major problems with subie's are the oil leakes but there fun cars
You keep jumping over all the mr2 lol..amd the taillights were actually some ebay brand from a few years back I had same aet i paid 220 for the pair new in box
I would love to see you owning one WRX thanks for the content love from Uganda Africa
So I’m just getting into cars because I’m starting to think they are really cool I’m sort of a late bloomer 15 but whatever what I wanted to ask was can someone tell me how you can tell the r32 r33 and r43 apart it would be cool if I could get help
Subaru RA RA = Record Attempt... we had one in our showroom that our mechanic used to talk to every morning as he drank his coffee... 😆
Sam when I come bid I'm giving u the biggest finder fee lol. that should be ur side channel. Help westerners not get ripped off. Cuz we are all car guys and want what we paid for.
buy jdmcars in sweden, norway, finland and denmark, still fairly cheap here. Atleast way cheaper than US n other places where some of "my" contentcreators are from
Any 2018 nissan from amaerica is garbage try me I can prove it easily and the 4 doors will be the coolest soon enough, nothing better then sending 5 people with comfort
Red rx7 is a Mazda speed, there's been a couple in previous auction videos just in the background. Cool models
