- There's one particular car that gets the juices of Subaru fan boys bubbling and that is a 2 Door STI. Not to be confused with the highly collectable and way more expensive 22B, this Version 5 STI is the newest addition to the Mighty Car Mods Garage, it's far from perfect, which makes it perfect to modify! Today we take it for a test drive around the track.

its so nice... :) ... except for the keypad thing... that's lame... mod that part...

Resto-mod it with tasteful bits and the removal of the dumb security system.
Marty drove this car past my school a couple months ago and it was the coolest thing ever
study hard
Mighty Car Mods just for you guys I will
@@mightycarmods lol
He wasn't in a white van was he?
A ford Sierra cosworth drove past my school
90's Engineer: Is the immobilizer working?
Owner: Yes, now how do I turn it off?
90's Engineer: If its working you have no problem.
literally hahaha
Pretty much haha
Fuuuck, i did not want to remember that. I've modded them out of every car i've owned, swapped them with something more crude and mechanical. Those were the fucking worst. Espectially in the late 90's when they "thought" they had it right and just about every car manufacturer that had them, went full send and pissed in their own fucking pants. FUuuuck.
aserta yep, when next doors having a root would set your alarm off
Congrats man! One of my dream Subaru
3 seconds into first gear " feels pretty good" Marty's face looks like he has got the present he has always wanted..
not the biggest subbie fan, and even I would cream myself if that thing was in my driveway
Type x incoming
Few mins later: "This stupid PoS and its alarm system!!" :P
😂
"I will destroy all nissans" only og fans know
Nah, the box of cogs still works in this one!
Godzilla just entered the room
I remember that episode
I was gonna be a smartass about this, but it has been a fair few years. Gawd damn time flies like Super Gramps.
Pretty sure anyone would understand
Come back when you're wanting to learn how to install a blow-off valve 😂
Now moog needs to get an s chassis and boom we back to old mcm
hopefully thats his new car
@@jaydenmeade902 he just bought a brz cant believe hes already getting another one
S30 doesnt count?
@@CtrlAltSk8 that's a Z
BRZ basically is the new S chassis.
“STI stands for Subaru tecnica international” that’s not what the doctor told me when I had it 🤔
😂
oh boy....
Cheryl?
there is also the Diesel powered Ford ST
Lmaooo
Subaru take note! The look/shape of this era models are 😍 everyone misses these
The new models feel like the refreshed version of the mean eye chasis
There not aerodynamic enough, look how flat it is
Whats year is this ?

I'd love to own them all
@@impreza0109 agreed
@@Ayeitsscott Is that a joke?
I’m telling you these are amazing but the alarm is shit
@@Ayeitsscott Yes it did!
"But uh... I preferred a Nissan that smell of bong smoke, sweat and soy sauce"
Hahah
Ayaaaaaqq
Focus on the Bong smoke
TayTay reference, it's a shame that it's gone.
The sweat usually comes from the police chase because you have bong smoke lingering in the car.
Um,this isnt from experience......
Why the fuck would you put soy sauce anywhere near your car by the way?
@@MrSardine23 Bout that sushi life
"What a nug"
Just the best line.
If Moog gets a gtfour, I'm going to wee.
Hopefully it has enough automotive archaeology so they could call it Project Stinky
Still regret selling mine
Always wanted one of those
Omg yes but they didn’t enjoy the 3sgte in the Mr2 so maybe not. Maybe a pulsar gtir
And call themselve Project D... For project dissrespected.
It’s far from a nugget, it’s a piece of history. Can’t wait for this.
In all my years watching mighty car mods, this is the first I'm seeing Marty and Moog bought the same brand of car in a season. Happy to see this milestone.
im not even sure I've ever seen Marty this happy (apart from when he got SuperTurbo). ok, two times Ive seen Marty this happy 😅
@@mrmcbeardy9268/videos Marty has been happy on several occasions. I'd say happy and excited and Moog isn't pouring pasta water over it. It's the combo that shines it up.
A twinge of sadness when you mentioned Possum Bourne. He passed away too soon.....
RIP Possum.
What a SICK Subie though wow.
Thankfully his shop still goes on strong, take my Subie and my honda there. They're probably the best shop in the country
“I’ve never owned an Evo 9 but I had a dream I owned one once”

Toby Creates what happened to it ?
@@antonimontoya9772 They only had it a [very] short time and got rid of it. Not sure if it was theirs or not, or what the deal was, but it was only in a couple eps maybe max, but they played a little gimmick like it was all a dream and never really happened.
@@MrSlowestD16 I'd like to know why they keep saying that haha...It's been my favourite car they've had
@@MrSlowestD16 That was around the same time as Moog had a dream about an S2000. Will that fit in my Honda?

@@yuvaroop almost every other comment was about bunta

bunta has a 22b front
@Benis I'm pretty sure Bunta actually had a 22B in the series. Keep in mind his AE86 also had an official track racing engine that wasn't legal for street use so he most likely had access to other high end cars/parts associated with official racing.
Marty:buys a rare 2door sti
Me:can't even afford a poster of it
John Chatzopoylos work hard and youll be able to get one. Im in the same situation as you but i hope to reach the spot where i can fulfill one dream of mine.
Maybe computer desktop wallpaper? I think those are free.
Get a youtube channel with 3.3m subscribers, and you too could have one
@Jyri Nenonen they are selling for about $70,000 in Australia. Are you sure you're not just talking about a normal wrx?

"I dont know if it looks good on your civic" gave me a chuckle. Poor Hondas always get shade.
"It's so tight"
"Are you uncomfortable?"
Ah yes... now to explain to my wife that I'm watching a car show.
Every single episode 😂
I remember trying to take a girl out on a date when my WRX immobiliser reared its ugly head. Best tow truck ride ever. Thanks, Subaru.
you must know nothing about cars because subaru has some of the best automotive engineering to date world wide.. ive driven a 1997 outback legacy wagon 5 speed with well over 300,000 miles on it when i lost an exhaust valve merging onto the freeway.. (my fault as i dumped a ton of octane booster in it as a test) One i pulled over to check her out, i unplugged the injector with the problem and carried on my way.. for 5,000 more miles until i finally parked it and repaired it.. I also traveled coast to coast with the same car... SO IN YOUR CASE IT WAS "USER ERROR"..... SUBARU FOR LIFE>>> THEY ARE THE BEST EVER>>>>>> If you take care of your stuff it will take care of you.. KNOW YOUR ENGINE IN AND OUT before you spit nasty crap about subaru..
J CZ28 okay boomer.
@@BlaZindeezy .. are we talking about real cars or computer games ??
888johnmac real cars actually. Are you shocked about my story? That’s why I back Subaru pretty strong. I’ve put them and few others ive owned through the years through the ringer. You can find video all day online of Subaru’s being put through the ringer. I’m just glad now y’all know a 2.5 liter boxer will run fine with only 3 cylinders holding compression and firing. Are you jaw dropped? Can’t do that with a FORD! Lol. And yes I put 5,000 more freeway and city miles on it and lived in it for 2 months. Amazingly practical. A modern day survivalists dream. All while sounding like a 25 hp lawn tractor. Lol. And top speed about 75. That’s if you can knock off all the mud and clay from all the mud bogging you can do too. Heh ... although if ur livin in it, then of coarse you gotta get off grid and dog leg into the woods to find camp and hide for the night to stay safe while you rest. You can do that with a Subaru.
@@BlaZindeezy calm down
“The car thinks we’ve been carjacked.” Weird
If you've ever spent time with a Brant alarm system, it assumes EVERYONE is a criminal.
What GTA looked like in real life.
Some old jdm alarm system stuff man haha
@@neilr4867 the Brant alarm sounds like it was designed by my mother
Great to see this legend here.
My brother has one similar to that, a STI Type RA witha 22B bodykit. It's been more trouble than any other car he or I have had and he loves it. There's something special about the older subarus, some pure brutality and simplicity.
I grow up watching this kind of cars with Richard Burns, Colin McRae, Tommy Makinen, Carlos Sainz etc rallying in the acropolis wrc when I was a teen. For sure this was the best era of rallying after the group B. This Subaru was my favorite. I am not a fan of japanese cars but I envy this one!
Needs to have the old gold rims back. Congrats Marty!
that's the rule. Blue and gold or red and white
So rad! Hopefully this one stays in the MCM stable for a long time to come
I'm sure it will.
think most of their cars do.
You’s two are definitely making lockdown a lot better for us 🔥
Love your channel, been watching for ages now, have just bought myself a GF8 wagon, so looking forward to seeing your progress, hopefully it will help me along the way! 🙌🏼 great choice man!
I’ve been waiting for this car to be on this show me years, well done boys, weapon of a car !!
That dam immobilizer. I remember when my brother first got his, he let me have a go if it and we did this exact thing. The memory just came back
Ok this makes me stupid happy. This is one of my childhood crushes for cars, and it never stopped. I love iiiiiiiiiit.
Im expecting a Colin McRae rally build now😂😂😂
Nah Possum Bourne. Keep the blue paint.
Ah yeah here comes moog in a ... 1995 Skoda Felicia Kit Car :D
@@myownsite 100% He's bought a Saxo VTS lmao
Possun Bourne, more likely... His workshop still goes in New Zealand.
Gold wheels are so cliché.
time to pass some kid coming back from a tofu delivery now
Is that..... is that a ghost?
Euro beat intensifies
Buuunnttaaaa
With a hint of cigarette smoke in the air after you pass him.
KENSEI DORIFTO!
Finally a 2 door sti has come to mcm. Been waiting for this for a while.
Love it!! Can't wait to see what you guys have in store for this.
It makes me happy to see you two getting new toys. You work so hard. You deserve the best.
8:09 My cat lifted his head when your car started chirping like a mouse 🤣
When my dad was in Japan in the early 2000s, they literally couldn't sell these things at auction no one wanted one, he specifically remembers one of the auctioneers doing doughnuts in one on the wharf.
My uncle worked at a Subaru dealer in the 90’s, and he had the same experience but with the 2.5rs here in the USA. The story would go some couple would come in, ask to drive a top of the line Impreza, complain about rearward visibility because of the wing, and then leave in a legacy.
Curtis Lovrak thats because the 2.5RS was crap lol
That’s weird because people often say that the STi was nearly impossible to get hold of because they all sold out so fast?
Subaru Japan sold many more Legacy than Impreza
What hurts was watching this the night it was posted, being the same night I watched my 1998 impreza coupe getting taken away by its new owner, but still happy to see it on the show looking forward to what comes next!
I've already lost count of just how many blue cars Marty has owned 😂
Bestill my beating heart! A Brant alarm! I thought everyone had removed them by now. I had one in an 03 WRX and it caused so much misery and pain. I would fill it with petrol and it would REFUSE to start.
Same thing with my 06 but either at full noise on the highway or mid corner 😬
I remember Rexnet had diy for removing them lol
You’re not supposed to fill alarms with petrol, that’s where you were going wrong......
@@menotmeyou I remember using that on my MY00 GC8. I was so glad to get rid of it.
I guess every country has their own version of the terrible after-market alarm. In the UK it was Clifford alarms and they were so sensitive that every time the wind blew in the early 2000's you could tell which direction it was coming from by using your ears alone.
They were so overly sensitive that they basically made car alarms redundant, they would go off so regularly for no reason that people just stopped paying attention.
This is literally my favorite subaru ever made. Period.
Makes me occasionally regret buying my 4 door
best build based on this gen is "Gobstopper I" by Olly Clark (search for "Clashproductions The Gobstopper - Time Attack -") Back from times when Time Attack was all about power and response, and not aero :P
Absolutely loves these cars! I have an 01 Impreza sedan with a 2.2l ej22 engine and I love it. Needs some repairs but it’s the most reliable car I have ever owned and drives amazing.
I've had like 5 GC chassis cars now and we've had more in the family. Just maintain them and they are reliable and a joy to drive. The EJ22 is particularly bulletproof. If you ever sell it, only sell it to me. 😂
I’ve been watching MCM since the stereo upgrade days and I can’t describe how excited I am to finally see this here.... legit my dream car... put some real rally suspension in it and go have at the jumps! Legit can’t wait for the next videos❤️
Yeah ive been stuck at the top of mt nebo when mine went bad we just soldered some wires over the relays inside the little box on the drivers side next to the stereo there is a video on youtube about it
sometimes the relays get old an stick, and you think your turned the ignition off but you haven't ....
you from Jordan?
Brisssy
ayeeee should go for a rip up nebo some time my man?
The security code is the exact same as the code on my luggage ~ Mel Brooks.
Spaceballs the subi
Start combing the outback
1,2,3,4,5.......That's the kinda thing an idiot would have on his luggage!
Is that stock or aftermarket
I've got a similar alarm system in my Bugeye WRX Wagon. The code switch dies after a few years, they're cheap metal domes that fatigue and break.
What's even better is taking it to a garage and explaining how the system works. You can guarantee that 10 minutes later the alarm will be going off and you'll have to go back and sort it out. It does make MOT's very fun.
Had five of these cars. 1998 Turbo 2000 5 door. 2001 (Bugeye) WRX. 2003 (Blobeye) STI Type UK, 345 bhp. Bug Eye WRX Japanese import. And lastly WRX STI Type R Version 5, fully forged and rapid!! Love em.
being a subaru owner... never clicked on an mcm video so fast....
Haha me too! I didn't even process the thought ... click now - find out more later!
Version 6 owner here. I'll keep it till I die!
Finally! My favourite car ever made ON MCM!
You guys have been on point for cars from my youth lately :) keep it up lads
Nice purchase! I've also owned one for a short period of time. Had a great time until the 3rd gear failed. A transmission rebuild and it was good to go again. Loved the car.
People who don't get it.."how many cars do you need?".
Mcm... "Yes"
MCM showing some heavy carcaine habits
They sell the cars on 😂😂😂geeeeesssss
S400K177 they also break a lot of them...
dude every time i tell a non car friend that we're going to grab another car they always ask, "oh what are they doing with their old/other car?"
they just don't get it
I returned to the time of Gran Turismo 2 😁
Best built car I have ever driven. 20 years later and not a squeak or a rattle l.
Amazing car! I want one bad!
I am so happy you got this car. I have always wanted one even though the engine and trans are not that great. They look comfortable and exciting to drive.
One of the best looking subies ever made
Such a beautiful car! 😮 Looking forward to seeing it in more videos!
I went on to Carsales AU and looked at the listings, this thing goes for around 85k AUD which = ~56k USD.
I'm so glad you guys are doing this so people can see it!!!!!!!!!
Arm and a leg. Haha.
Love all the classic jdm stuff you guys have been picking up lately
a 96 impreza L was my first car, love the first gens
Same! My first car was a 96 Impreza L. Aegean Blue!
@@802Garage Legends!👍
Yup mine was 1996...not sure what the blue it was...kind of a sonic and subaru blue
I've been waiting for this car in MCM for 4 years now... My dream car.
you guys are the best, keep the good work up!
Reminds me so much of my 98 WRX even has the same hole in the drivers seat. At least the WRX didn't come with a Brandt alarm :P When I bought my WRX, youtube recommended me Mighty Car Mods during my research and when I bought the car it even came with a MCM sticker on it, I left it on to this day. My WRX is how I discovered this channel and I love it to bits.
These are one of my favorites, the 22b/gc8s are amazing.
Technically the code is GM8 for a coupe /endsubarunerd.exe
That's a great car as is, and a fantastic canvas for a project!
Sweet bro !! Love that you are having a true 90s experience with that alarm !!
Beautiful car, love that blue and that sounds great! Can't wait to see more of it
you are going to have loads of fun with this car

DONT YOU LIE TO ME!
God that is such a good looking car. Congrats on the purchase! can't wait to see what you do with it!
I remember my dad got hold of one of these literally a month after they released in the uk. So ahead of its time! I remember the amount of people that tried pulling up beside him asking him what the hell was it?! Ha! So quick and the sound of them are awesome! One of those motors that’ll always be a classic.
Last time I was this early, Moog booted a dent in the Blue Turd
I remember that one
AHHhhhh Electric space wizard!
Yes!!!!!!!!!! Mcm you have redeemed yourself’s with the brz. Ecstatic to see videos on this car. Please be a keeper Marty like moogs mini and your supergramps

Loved those alarms I installed heaps of them when I was a apprentices at a Subaru dealer I was a guru on them knew all the tricks I wish I still had the tech book and all the spares for it I’d send them to you
So its all your fault.
@@Samael78 blame the game, not the player 😀
Everything works great when it’s new, in the dealer.
The fact that you got them to work-with tricks and books and spares.....
Doesn’t make something good.
Let's be fair mate, they don't want any help with that hunk of shit unless it's an easy guide on tearing it out and smashing it to pieces
Hi Marty, that alarm / car jack system you have in your Subaru WRX STi is called a Brant. My mate and I designed that system back in the nineties due to a lot of wrx cars being stolen and the police luv it because they weren't getting stolen anymore due to our alarm / anti car jack system once they started being fitted in all wrx vehicles, and their were no more high speed police chases, and the police came to our workshop to specifically thank us for it. Its a good system once you have learnt how to use it, I have installed one in my GTR34.
You sure you want to make that claim that you helped design it? And the company was Brant the alarm was a AA04 and a PGM3 . I'm a Grant I grew up in there. I was there the night we moved into the office in five dock and I went to the Subaru meetings with my grandfather when I was 7 talking about what they wanted from the alarm.
By the way these features that no one likes were in the specs Subaru requested. WRX's post the introduction of the alarm had a 98% reduction in theft. To the point the alarm harness was actually installed in Japan at the factory
at 00:54 your car looks just like my favorite car in Gran Turismo 3.... and my favorite car in the world.... The 22B is awesome, but totally unattainable, so this is what we in the USDM only wish we could have had. My first subaru was a USDM 99 2.5LGT Limited, and the looks of this is exactly what made me fall in love with Subarus as a brand. I'm proud to be a Subaru Sales Rep here in Portland, OR.
"Go Go Go Go Go!! You've gotta go faster than Yaris Hilton!" So good!!
5:53 Bong smoke, sweat and soya sauce 😂
Jesus..yes, we've all seen the video too.
As a bugeye sti owner. Nice car. Can’t wait to see what you guys gonna do to it
Not really a Subaru fan but wow this car looks so beautiful! I couldn’t imagine ripping through the gears
"It's got a good box in it."... Hi Cheryl.
That would seriously tick me off keep cutting the engine off 😂 great looking car for 22 years old 👍
Beautiful. Congratulations. All the best.
