Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2022
- Deep in the bowels of New Jersey, Ron and Scotto somehow conned their way into a private tour of Subaru’s rarest, wildest, weirdest, and most legendary cars! We’re talking the Brat, complete with jump seats. A Justy that STILL holds a record at Bonneville. Ken Block’s STI from Stunt Junkies, which is also Travis Pastrana’s first Rally car! All that and a lotta weird stuff too. This is a nerd out session for the ages, enjoy!
Big thanks to Bill Stokes and Subaru for showing us around.

I am utterly astonished and dismayed that you were standing literal inches away from the Legacy GTk (the red and black wagon behind the David Coleman car) and didn’t even LOOK at it much less mention it. As a colossal 5th Gen Legacy nerd, I’ve been wondering where that car ended up for literal years, and here you guys are standing with it in the background of your shots for 5+ minutes and it doesn’t even get a second glance. That is the *only* USDM 2010+ Legacy Wagon in existence. Full 2.5GT driveline, dozens of one-off bespoke parts, 300+ hp *turbo wagon*. PLEASE go back and get a better look at this thing, for our sake. In fact, I feel like this warehouse deserves an entire second episode.
I agree, although its also the reason why i love the Legacys, as its such a low key car.
Seconded. That's a hella special car for the nerds, up there with 3rd gen blitzen's with porsche interiors and 2nd gens with the sequential twin turbos.
I thought the same thing! I lost my ever-loving mind when I saw it just chillin' there, out in the open. I'm super surprised no one cared to talk about it. I would've given up a testicle to own one of those things. When I saw it in the magazine back in the day, I just gawked. It's awful how opposed Americans are to wagons.
timestamp?
@@therealbojak 34:34. It’s the red and black wagon that comes into shot immediately after they talk about the SVX, and is in shot almost the entire time they’re talking about the David Coleman car.
Subaru heaven. What a gorgeous sight to behold.
uwu🇯🇵🔥✨
Full blown Brunswick balsa wood 🪵
So good
They spent 15 million dollars fixing breakdowns alone.
So surprised tons of JDM are missing like B4 RSK, GTB, S401, S402, Forest STI etc
I need a Part 2!!
You walked right past the bright orange ST-X (Baja prototype). Such an odd but rare vehicle deserves a mention at least haha
came to say something about the Baja
Indeed, as a VERY happy Baja owner I am really disappointed.
kept seeing it in the background of clips and i was waiting for its feature but never got it☹️
This video is not about Subarus. Every time Ron and Scotto are in a video I get serious 1998-2008 nostalgia. Never stop talking about the good old days. I wish I could hang out with you guys.
The cars are killer too. Living in Colorado I see killed Subies everywhere. Both of my brothers first cars were Subarus. GC8 in that killer green/blue color and first gen Legacy wagon. I've never owned one but I will eventually stuff a EJ22 or EJ25 in my Karmann Ghia. PS: I read SCC , Turbo , Grassroots MS AND I would stop at Barnes and Nobles to pick up a Max Power from time to time.
I grew up in Truckee and our mail lady drove a 1990 Legacy. We'd routinely get multiple feet of snow in a single day but somehow the mail always arrived on time. Late 90's / early 00's were the absolute jam on the awd/rally front (Group B notwithstanding)
ditto
Subaru should totally give this guy a raise. Setting this up is genius. Right now Subaru is really in the good graces of the performance crowd so this reminder is very timely. Smart move.
Seems like you know what time it is
seems like you know what time it is
NOT in the good graces...
@@jsquared1013 Hey we all loved that most recent performance model right? no complaints...
you know he is literally in the top position of the Subaru race team, he is the one giving raises
I had 2006 Spec B #024 for a few years. Nice to see #001 here.
I have an 07 and I wouldn't give it up for anything.
When a 41 minute video is over too fast. What a collection! Only ever seen photos of the mountain rescue Forester before, that thing is so rad. 👌
Growing up in New Zealand we had most of the cars shown here (especially the Forester, Legacy, ), within reason of course but because we could so easily import from Japan and the laws were very very loose as far as building cars. It was $2000 NZ aka 1k USD for a rolling chassis and a body would be say, 3k NZ, we always budgeted 5k to get the car to NZ . I was lucky enough to have a 2002 Legacy STi, after a little tuning it was a 200mph station wagon with THAT Nardi wheel stolen from my friends RA!!!! The full RA had a roof vent that was opened manually too. I think one reason Subaru were so chill with us was Possum Bourne, a now deceased NZ rally legend and truly amazing human. He is worth a google too.
We were definitely blessed by Subaru as Australia didn't even get the cars we did and had way harsher importing laws. Now NZ made all cars before 2007 illegal to import, it could be newer now as I left NZ in 2010 so the scene changed fast. For a time we had people like Smokey coming to NZ to see our tunes and to take the Supra and remove the 3l 6cyl and put a 2l 4cyl in it to win the 300kph race that is a thing in NZ that is very worth googling. I remember there were 20 plus SVX just in Auckland... They were very expensive.. So many memories pouring out that were lost to the BS that always happens with "friends" and working on cars.
Thanks to Subaru and Hoonigan for sharing these incredible cars.
As a Canadian who’s been to NZ in 2015, yeah, confirmed it’s a fucking sick JDM car scene. It’s a shame how quickly it disappears though but plenty of great memories
We have great import laws and shit modification laws.
Having to pay $200+ to 1 of like 30 shops in the whole country to certify adjusties (coilovers) is insanity. Surely that can just be under the general WOF i also have to pay $50 every 6months for.
Ah man. Im so glad yall didn't skip over the RX. Pops and I raced a white RX turbo back in the day in SCCA Rallycross (2005 ish) and man it was a fun car. That was Dad's "gateway drug" into Stage Rally. He won a bunch of the regional championships and then we moved on to the big leagues. We've got a Brat parked in the garage too! Hopefully someday we'll get that thing restored. Got all the parts needed. Growing up Dad drove a white turbo legacy sedan and an XT-6. I think the only older Subie we never had was an SVX. Those were hard to find even back in the 2000's! We're a Subaru family through and through. What a great video. Thanks boys!
I saw those 2 s209's at SubieFest Florida last year absolutely gorgeous. They also had the pre production press 22b STI vin 001 on display. Such a cool experience to see all those!
This video did not feel like 41 minutes. Y’all are giving us some of the best car content available these days. You’re talking about super street and import tuner, you guys are now the variation of those mags. Bringing quality coverage to the people that want it. Thank you for all you guys do.
The mountain creek reference had me dead, little has changed in 16 years; the parking lot is still filled with WRXs, only now with slightly more vape clouds
A little part of me died when I heard that mirror snap at the end(can't have anything nice...said the 80's). Love this video, spent 1/2 of my life in Subaru's so I enjoyed every minute of this. Seeing the red 4WD button on the shifter brought back many trolling memories. The commentary was on point as usual.
Those Vitaloni California mirrors would break off even if you didn't touch them. But damm they are a cool mirror
@15:17 When you made the “action park” reference about that crazy Baja looking one, I about DIED laughing 😂
“Longer the name, faster the car”
Accurate and noted
What an amazing collection. I wish we could've seen all of them in detail!
Thank you guys so much for letting us also visit this holy grail of Subaru!
Love y’all. Keep up the best content. Timing is always great for hoon lunch breaks. 🤘
21:45 “omg a spec b”
Me: look at that preface legacy behind them 😍”
So many sick wagons that were just over looked😭 i loved this video
07 WRX Limited Wagons are dope
I remember passing by the the headquarter parking lot years ago and catching a glimpse of the 22b. Definitely a unicorn sighting for me or for anyone kinda in the wild.
This is one of the best all time videos you guys have put out. I really appreciate this.
I owned 7 Suabru legacy turbos first generations ..!! Best car Subaru ever made ..!! I currently have a mint condition 1992 Subaru Legacy turbo 5spd with 107 thousand original km..!!! It’s stored safely in my heated garage ..!!
That picture of Ron's, Scotto's and Vin's old subaru's made me hit up the old facebook marketplace for one
Love these obscure collection montages where you and other folk just nerd out for an hour. Great stuff!
Wow, I was in the process of building almost the exact same car as Bill! Mine was the '02 WRX engine, instead of '04 and the coupe was not the 2.5 rs, just the impreza with RS bolt-ons. Great taste!
Dave Coleman is still around racing Lemons in a Miata and working for Mazda. Seriously cool dude. He also gave us the “Dave Point” which was how he explained front suspension technology.
Of all those magazines only GRM is still around (lifetime subscriber here).
I will NEVER sell my GC8---- have had it for 20 years--- 5k mods ---400hp--- light -- awesome handling--- and the sound--- Driven many cars and even more powerful ones BUT there is something special about the GC that makes my heart race! Awesome vid...
My Aunt had a 1st generation Legacy when I was a little kid. Damn thing lasted forever as I recall. Crazy seeing one again as those have to be rather rare at this juncture. And all these years later I drive my own EJ powered Subaru (VA STi). So many gorgeous examples in that collection!!! Although the whole spare under the hood concept... not sure who green lit that one, but my God what were they thinking?? 😂🤣
I got to see some of these in Cherry Hill when I went through my training. So cool to see in person and awesome to see the collection grow.
I can't believe you didn't talk about Mark Higgins' TT STI build!! I live on the Isle of man and watched the speed lap, defo check out the on board video of him lapping the TT course, it's insane!
ua-cam.com/video/jFlSG9_Ue4A/v-deo.html
What an amazing episode. So much awesome stuff to behold. Thank you for bringing it to us.
Always on point for lunch. Thanks guys, keep up the good work
I've had the good fortune to see a few cars from this collection at both Philly Radwood shows. The opportunity to see that 22B in person was probably the highlight of last month for me. Seriously, how many times am I going to get to stand right up on a 22B without it being roped off? That SVX is REALLY MINTY in person too, I think it has under 6k miles on it if I remember correct. Awesome to get a chance to see more of this collection!
What shoes do you go to in Philly ?
Love it - wonderful vid. My brother-in-law had a black 2.5RS just like his at the very end there for a number of years. Personally daily a 2018 base WRX, (with the "loud" package, STI cat back and full Kicker upgrade and basically nothing else.) The cars are fun as heck, but the very best part about owning one is the way kids react to them - they just light up. Not sure what it is - the bright color, the huge intercooler scoop, the noise.... Super fun vehicles.
Also walked right by the Isle of Man car too..... that silver ST/i was the first car they let on the track in a significant amount of time....
Love videos like this!things we would never see or even know about unless for this video 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I've had the pleasure of riding passenger in a 22b. they're absolutely crazy and 100% have more than 280hp
They probably do make 280 but they’re extremely lightweight so it feels a lot faster than say an sti with 300
I owned a white on white xt6... Absolutely love that car and miss it so much.... so happy you guys stopped and looked at that one!
Dang, I didn't recognize Kyle without the beard until you showed the Astro..
He looks like a real boy now..
Needs to be a part 2 so many amazing cars still to go through?!
Such a great presentation. I'm bummed you all didn't get to the purple prototype Forester XTI but it's all good. Subaru will always be my favorite car manufacturer.
i’m an 05 legacy gt owner and i’m so hyped to see this video and see other new subarus to me and the legacy’s!. Happy to see the spec.B and fxt for once!
So close to the Baja Concept car, and walked right past it. Supercharged 6cyl!
That Spec C Type RA R is to die for, that is the one that I want. This vid brought back memories, from the Brat (was my dream car once upon a time), the GL (wanted to lower one and put street performance tires for going to the mountains), talk about Sport Compact Car and Grassroots ( I stilll have some SCC issues around here), rally, Dave Coleman and his rally 510. Oh, and Bill's very nice GC, or is it a GM? I need to up my game on my GD.
Holy shit Kyle looks different from the time when he built the Astrovan
Amazing Subaru collection I could spend hours in that warehouse.
Thanks Lads for such an in depth tour. Greetings from Ireland 😎
Love the collection! Thanks for sharing boys
As a subie enthusiast this is an amazing episode!!!
Is this the first time Kyle has been on camera since he went home a couple years back?
I was glad to see he's still around! I wonder the same. Here for this comment.
Sweet tour, what a treat to go check out all these cars in person and capture so much of the Subaru history and lineage.
Seen several of these at WBM in CT over the years. Glad a video is being made on this collection!
As a Subaru fan, I really appreciate this video 🤙🏽
As the driver of a 2009 WRX, this was super awesome to see! I noticed the (silver) one in the same body style at the entrance behind the 2 Hawkeyes. I'm sad we didn't get any specs on that one, but it's still super cool to see Subaru history.
Same! 2011 STi owner, I was like that's my car! This video made my day. So much hate on Subarus it really ruins the fun sometimes.
2011 wrx owner here making 520whp
@@__Square what hate? Everyone seems to love mine lol, and it doesnt even look that good or anything, subarus are just cool
@@bakedstreetyt maybe I just read into too many comments lol.
30some years ago, when I was about 4, our neighbor had a Subaru brat with the seats in the back and an exhaust. For some reason, I loved that car as a kid! It was something about how loud it was and the bed seats. It's literally one of the only things I remember about living in that house.
A treat I didn't know I needed.. Thank you guys! :D
Finally! A Subaru series dedicated to Subaru. I have an Impreza I'm working on now
Impreza gang gonna throw a fa20 engine in my 17 Impreza once I hit 300k on the stock engine almost half way there
@@wildthc_plant9205 awesome , looking to swap a 2.0t in my mines sometime next year. I've only had my Impreza outback for a bit over a month and it only has 113k on it.
HOW ARE YALL GONNA BE RIGHT NEXT TO THE LEGACY GTk WAGON AND NOT TALK ABOUT IT?!?!
It’s the coolest modern Subaru wagon ever. Recaros and 300hp & 350ft/lbs!
Literally so sick. It has the 2.5 out of the 10-12 legacy GT with a low mounted turbo.
Just go back and drive it or even just start it!
For real, just commented almost the exact same thing. I saw that car come into frame and my jaw literally dropped. I’ve been wondering what happened to that car for over half a decade at this point, and it doesn’t even get a second glance from them.
@@BadCoreyMedia it is an inspiration for a build I have plans for. I love the body style and it’s so overlooked by all people, even die hard Subaru enthusiasts.
@@xchrisxwoodsx Preach. 3.6R NA track build in progress here. The entire platform is so slept on because “oo big headlights scary/ugly”. USDM got the shaft so hard on 10-14 Legacys.
@@BadCoreyMedia 2011 legacy 2.5i was basically my first car and I immediately fell in love with the platform. Spacious and good looking with a great community cult following
Before I bought my specB I always asked myself why the 5th gen didn't come in a spicy format. Such a nice car but even in non turbo form they're so rare here
As a Subaru WRX owner and general Subaru fanboy, thank you so much for showing this. This is my dream garage.
Also, I know 3 people in my area of Vermont that owned the SVX. I got to ride in 2 of them. One of them, my friend took me up to 155 MPH on the highway in his. They are fast.
I am a 2020 WRX/STI owner and I must say this video gives a great history lesson about Subaru and the great things they have done. Subies forever guys.
Need to get a Forester STI in there
As a car-obsessed kid of the 80s, that era in Subaru's history will always be my favorite. I'm still mad I couldn't convince my dad to buy a BRAT.
This is a great video for any true car enthusiast. It showcases so many classic Subaru models.
Love those Subis. Got a limited Liberty GT Spec B Sti and love it.
Scotto.. you gotta let other people talk. You kept interrupting the dude. It's like jon favreau sitting at a round table with 9 other people. You only hear Jon talking
Lol, I was just wondering if he gets paid per interruption.
Thanks to both Subaru and Hoonigan. Incredible stuff.
I was in that 22B and got about a 30mile drive in it years ago when Subaru brought it out to the East Coast Subaru Shootout that used to happen a long time ago. Such a cool car.
I had an '88 Turbo 4 door with checker flag seats and seat belts, air suspension and a digital dash. I was one of the coolest cars I ever had.
wow, the SCC one-lap car, minus the wing they borrowed and the water tank AC thing that stuck out of the window like a rocket launcher. Nice to see it's preserved, I haven't thought about that car in 20 years...
I used to ride around in the back of one of those with my sister about six seven years old. It was my uncle's blue one, four speed; he hooned that thing always and one of my best memories with him.
Great video guys!!
Proper geeking out with the Subaru tech. 🙂👌👌
24:40so true I had to have one and couldn’t until 2017 and it was a dream come true. I miss my 2017
This is the best hoonigan video ive watched in a long time.
3:36 Ah the FF-1. I remember seeing one when I went to rally spectating in Thailand. Pretty cool car.
That's crazy! Y'all were literally less then a half hour away from ever I'm staying! I'll have to keep my eyes open for Bills Suby round the way. Such a badass collection of history. I knew a guy that would keep a spare trans in the trunk of his STI. Lol
Those shift levers for the 4wd gl vehicles, that wagon, the brat, etc. Were super cool, because you could literally change your range, and to 4wd while still rolling, and even without the clutch, a massive improvement over all other 4wds from the time, you didn’t have to stop to get grip, you just pulled that lever up.
I’m a Subaru fanatic and super fan. Your Subaru content is what made me subscribe to your channel. This episode was awesome, thank you for the history lesson. Wish I was there with you boys. Lucky son of a guns
I know there is so much history and amazing craftsmanship here but the thing that sticks out to me the most is the Always Sunny in Philly clip saying "that looks like a dick". I can't stop laughing as that's the first thing I thought of. Seriously though, this was incredible. My childhood coming alive from every video game or race I ever saw in person, wow.
Bill got the real dream job sheeeeeesh
Love the Subaru content!!! Subaru has always been my dream car since a kid. Now I drive a 22’ Impreza hatch/wagon. Dream is a bugeye wagon
Super RAD! Thanks for sharing!
I have a soft spot for Subarus. When I was a a kid my parents took us all to Disneyworld (6 of us in a car) and we were in a 77 GL (DL?) wagon (think that was the model) and it was a great roadtrip even though a bit cramped but I will always remember Subaru got us there and back safely. Subaru has come a looooong way since the 70s.
Good stuff!!!
I used to have a mint condition 1985 Subaru 4WD Turbo fully loaded with electro pneumatic suspension and a 5 speed transmission. It was a lot of fun and is now a car I wish I would have kept.
Brian thanks for the shoutout for Dave Coleman. I learned so much from reading SCC growing up. One of my biggest regrets was selling my Evo 8 years ago and forgetting to take off my SCC license plate frame(which said "let the ass kicking begin" on the top).
Hoonigan is Subaru. Been there since ken block was unheard of. Got ken, travis and mirra signed plate. RIP Dave
My mother grew up in jersey, has been to action park, and drove a brat... I am following in the footsteps of an original hoonigan
I saw and sat in a 22B that Subaru was showing in 1998? I then bought 98 blue 2.5RS and modified it right after that. Drove that car for about five years and then sold it. Out of all the cars I've had, that's the one I regret selling. It never even made it to turbo status, it had the full N/A suit plus all the suspension/wheels/tires, and I had done a lot of lightweight modifications, so with me in it, it weighed in at ~2700lbs, in a straight line it was as quick as the initial WRX that rolled stateside. It was such a fun car to drive.
Subaru RX - in Australia the Subaru L series Wagon and Subaru Leone sedan .. 🤙🏼 I had a 1992 L series wagon (touring wagon edition) 1.8L 5spd Manual.. was absolutely mint in 2002 .. really miss that car
The last car I owned (no need for a car anymore, and too expensive nowadays) was a '00 Subaru Impreza GT Turbo 555. The most basic Impreza at that time but still the 2.0 turbo engine. Offcourse in blue, and I had OZ gold wheels fitted, I think some Leggera type. What a car. I just loved the boxer engine sound at low revs.
More heritage hangers! I enjoy these type of videos the most
The first car i ever drove was my Dad's '92 SVX in '94. My brother owned a XT6 at the same time. Fast forward to 2008 I bought a '96 Outback and then bought a '95 SVX. I had my SVX for 12 years and only did breaks and a new radiator. Great car fun to drive, the thing was built like a tank. The styling was done by Giorgetto Giugiaro, same guy that styled the Bugatti EB110.
Subaru, I approve, literally. I have signed off on tens of millions of dollars in parts. Keep doing what you are doing. Amazing people, fantastic quality.
"I don't want to stop driving it"... that's my problem too.
Great video, please go back and look at more of the cars! 👍
"Thursday blasting on the radio" lmao word!
The production guy always hiding behind stuff in the back of the video is so funnnnyyyyy XD
As a Subaru guy this is a dream. Id be drooling all over everything in this warehouse.
Listening to Scotto makes MY throat itch. Feeling for you sir.
Great seeing brats getting attention I had an 86 and I still miss and hope to buy it back again
On second short block cause... that's how it goes 😂
