#STI #SUBARU #WRX - Авто та транспорт
Literally the only video that goes into detail and answered all my questions thanks bro 🙏🏻
Awesome thanks for watching!
I don't even own a Subura but can appreciate the thoroughness of all your vids. Keep up the good work.
I appreciate that as well. Thanks for watching!
This a awesome guide. I couldn't get my hands on a 1" crow foot wrench in time for my installation so we just tightened it with a 1" deep socket first; then we attached the hose and tightened the clamp with a tiny ratchet and 7mm socket. It was super simple this way for anyone who doesn't have a crow foot wrench.
Glad it was useful. Thank you very much for the tip!
Such a thorough and well thought out video! Your camera set ups and lighting are so clear...also, love how you labeled all the tools! Thanks 🙏 I really appreciate you making this job easier!
Just wanted to say thanks for this. Of all the how to videos for this mod yours is by far the best. Clear, concise and fantastic video.
Thanks!
That's a superb video that requires so much effort. U deserve a medal. If only the world is like you, so helpful! Cheers!
Literally the best install video I have ever seen.
One for the best videos I’ve seen about installing any part. Thanks 🙏🏼
This is the best install video for this mod on UA-cam. Took me under an hour with your guidance.
Thank you for sharing!
Loved your video. very detailed, didnt leave anything out and great camera placement. because of your video, i feel pretty confident i can do this on my own.
Excellent video. I have seen like 4 or 5 for the same mod just to see that there is nothing i might be missing, and this one video is the one that is needed. Well spoken, clear views, tools used. 11/10 overall!!!!
Well done! Its been forever that ive watched an entire video. Your tobe and pitch were on point. Very consistent info, the footage was clear and steady. Really impressive. Easy to follow and easy on the eyes.
Good Job, thorough to the point, matter of fact and suggesting the right tools such as the coolant refill set up was a great help. I've been wanting to do this mod for a while now and you took out any hesitation that was stopping me from pulling the trigger. Thanks
I played back this video so many times... the result of this was getting my GetADomTune Cylinder 4 cooling mod installed and burping coolant for the first time in my life. Thanks so much for making this video!
Great video! I like how you went through with the video and thoroughly explained everything adding tips and tricks to help out.
I can't wait until one day you need to either upgrade or change your clutch... because I can only imagine how detailed that install video will be. You are truly the greatest and I am a proud subscriber!!
Thank you my friend. Comments like this make it all worth it (although I don't want my clutch to go 🤣). Take care!
this is honestly the best video that explains this mod
I followed ever step and did my cyl 4 my self . Thanks for a well detailed video.
Awesome!
Excellent video. Best 1 I've seen - BY FAR! Great job!
Thanks!
This dude give a master class in all his videos
Exelent video Mostly all UA-camrs don't want to deal with the hassle of having the camera and show everything so they just rush to it I appreciate all the details of the vid . Will be doing this to my 2020 sti.
Welcome back!!! I just got this part one month ago and ready for install, then you post this video, what a coincidence. LOL!
@@akqjtn You have really taught me a lot！I like the logic and process of your all video very much. You are definitely a good teacher If you teach in school. I try to replace a new Radiator and plan to add this Cooling Mod at the same time, but I am still confusing that dose the Cooling Mod needs to be pinched all the time during the system burping? Or it should be unpinched before the engine starts?
Thank you for this video brotha. Youre always so detailed 🤟🏽
Perfect DIY! Absolutely perfect! Thank you!
Great camera angles and lighting makes it really easy see what youre explaining.
So detailed! I feel ready to do it myself now, thank you!
Very detailed installation. Thank you. Definitely a mode I will install. 🙏🏽
Absolutely clean and step by step presentation 💯👌🏻 Congratulations job well done 👍🏻 Thank you for posting this video ! Cheers🇨🇦
Best video for this!! Doing it this weekend!
Thank you for this. Particularly the crow's foot. You are literally the only person that even shows the fastener tightened to the block, let alone properly explain how to do so. I even asked people wtf they used to tighten it. Everyone says an adjustable wrench, channel locks, or vice grips. I have multiple sizes of each but speaking from experience, that steering part in the way makes using those tools not really possible. Now I can break the thing back out and throw it on next coolant flush!
So awesome to hear that. Thanks for watching and share!
I subscribed, you literally saved me from getting soaked in coolent from the bolt that's connected in the block that you place the hose on. I was told I didn't have to drain the coolent.
Jesus what a good install video man so detailed 👌 awesome bro
Best video on this by far!!
I will cash app you 100 bucks for a detailed video on how to remove and installation of the intake manifold. I have seen many videos and yours have been truly amazingly detailed.
@@akqjtn no worries! And great videos! Hope everything is good!!
That was incredibly detailed! Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the diagram and explanation. You provided what no one else did.
Amazing detail 👌. You made this look so easy. Ty I feel comfortable doing this myself now
Thanks glad it was useful to you
Just did the install yesterday and finished up today. This was an extremely helpful video. Just like your IDoing head unit install. With this one, I had to do it a little differently since, I'm sure you know now, the coolant mod hoses are now bent at a 90 degree angle, I had to screw the barb in by itself then mount the hose. That's pretty much the only difference. I still don't understand why we had to pinch the hose but I did it anyway and after a good 20 min, I didn't get any more bubbles and temps were smack dab where they should be. I will continue to monitor throughout the next week or so and then I'll throw my under cover back on. Thank you for the really informative video.
Nice instructional video! I installed the VEMS Tuning version myself. It's convenient because there's no silicone sealant necessary.
Honestly, all the versions are exorbitant for what they really are: a length of hose, a connector, a couple of clamps, and a T fitting.
Sir you do great videos, detailed and straight to the point. I just subscribed
Amazing Video. Learned a ton. This is my next mod.
Nice job! Appreciate your detail!
Wow , the best video with explanation, I was looking for it 👍🏻👌🤝
easily the best video on this install thanks ;)
You have the most in depth and detailed videos.Highly underrated. Too bad I have a Wrx and not an STI 😔😂
@@akqjtn oh yea I've watched a lot of your Wrx videos.Keep up the great work 👍
Phenomenal video, you've got my sub. Incredibly detailed for a job that every subie owner should do, I'll have to recommend this one for anyone who hasn't done this
Thank you and please do so!
Thank you! Explained everything perfectly!
Very detailed and on point thank you very much will be doing this mod in the near future. Thank you champ.
Awesome video, very well explained. Liked it from us in new zealand 🇳🇿
This is how to make a "how to" video. Extremely well done.
Great video man. Very detailed.
Super detailed and well explained
you made this install easy thank you!
2 years later and still using this tutorial for my 06 wagon.
Thanks for the full details man!
Just subbed
Awesome tutorial bro. As soon as it warms up I’m gonna do the same to mine.
Love you videos, you don't skip anything =)
Excellent job! And explanation
Thanks again for another great video. Though I did the I Build Race Cars version, they’re all pretty much the same. This gave me the confidence to do it myself. Biggest hurdle was finding the 1” crowfoot wrench and then playing around with all the angles to get things tightened down.
Putting that barb in with the crowfoot was such a pain in the ass (and neck).
Eres un salvaje👍 loved the video, the angles and the explanations were all on point👏👌
Gracias!
Great video brother 🤘
Great video
Only issue I had was no heat unless I was giving it gas so I switched my tee fitting to the heater core inlet that allowed me to have heat this past winter. Also a few friends of mine also with bugeyes had this issue. But it works great
Very good video. Great Job dude.
Awesome stuff 👏. I hope some day you go for big power so i can build with you . Great instructions my friend. A+
Well done. Very professional.
Excellent video
Very well done video. Good job sir. 👍🏻
Nice video - very helpful!
Amazing. I appreciate it!
Bad ass bro… helped me a bunch. Thanks 🙏
great video very helpful
I was gonna do this myself but nah, after watching this I’ll just have a mechanic do it lol. Great video!
It's super easy???
BRO! Best Subie YT channel ! Keep It Up brotha
Subbed no doubt !
A great video brother stay safe
Had my 21 sti for almost a year and i got it right before summer ended, so im experiencing my first full summer with the car and today i got to see first hand how my sti would act during 100+ degree weather. I had low throttle response and when i had the ac on and i gently pressed on the gas, itd go to 1100 rpm then go right down to about 700rpm even when my foot is still pressing on the pedal lightly. Did some research and it was just heatsoaked. I want a ic sprayer but dont trust myself to diy it with the wiring. So this may be the next thing ill do the next time i change my coolant. Considering the video is super informative
great video bud.
I would suggest a red rubber tip for your test light / visual probe to make it safer from scratching sensitive areas. and also easier to see. All the extra bolts I personally use various types of anti seize and thread lock. Thread lock is super important if you ever expect anything to stay put or 10 k plus Kilometers.
last tip, before removing the filler funnel for your coolant, you can squeeze on the rubber hoses a bit to raise the coolant level before plugging the funnel. so that way, you have no spills. Again, great Video, super clean engine too, Beautiful. I bet she's a lot of fun. Cheers
Thanks g this vid definitely helped with the diagram 🤙🏼
Awesome, thanks for watching!
Liked and subbed. Very well done video.
Great job thanks for your service🙏🏼
Awesome man
Great video!
Thank you!
Great video
Nice video man ☺ you have a new subscriber..... I currently have an MY20 Golf R but I am getting the itch for an STI. Cheers, Don, Perth W.Australia ☺
Thanks and welcome! If you get an STI I think you will get a lot from my channel. Good luck!
Excellent ! The details, man ! You should be teaching at a tech school.
Great video, the only part I question is why would you pinch the mod hose off before filling? You'd be holding in air that would then be released when you take the clamp off. Seems counterintuitive.
The hose adds one more path for air bubbles to travel so that's why you pinch it. That said, it is NOT 100% necessary to do, it just might make the burping process marginally longer.
Good video.
It’s more so to prevent ringland failure, not to prevent knock. Lol. While this MAY help with knock, the original purpose of this mod is to prevent ringland failure because especially on the EJ with unequal length headers, cyl 4 gets very hot and is prone to ringland failure. This mod and either a catch can or AOS can help prevent the dreaded cylinder 4 ringland failure. FA20’s should consider this if you’re doing the Tomei unequal length.
Great video! Very detailed, I am planning on installing the mod to my wrx 2011, ej 255 engine. I was curious if the install video would apply to my car as well.
I’m proud to say.. I did it. Thank u baby lord Jesus… now spark plugs please
Great video, Whats the recommended coolant temp reading on your accessport?
Attempting to do it on my 2015 sti but only confusion im having is which heater hose to cut,for me the top hose has a insulation not the bottom one, mabe they just mixed them up when getting the car done but I’m just gonna cut the one connecting to the black metal pipe.Love all your videos by the way never really tempted to work on my car until I found your videos super informative and best shots of every step💯👌🏼
Thanks for the video. I appreciate you making it one little question though did you do all that bubbling with it still on the ramp?
damn, Bob Villa of Subaru's!
Oh and a great time to swap out the radiator hoses.
Awesome video man! I just got an AOS, Cylinder 4 mod and KoyoRad to do all at the same time over a long weekend. I’ll definitely be using your videos for my install journey. 2 questions though: any reason you didn’t just tighten the plug to the head without the hose? I figure it would be easier to use a socket wrench than a crows foot. Have you made a radiator install video?
just installed mine on my ‘11 wrx and cut the wrong coolant line 💀 it’s okay i fixed it tho and so far so good great video!
Ima try it rn I’ll let u know how it goes fingers crossed 🤞
Best DIY on UA-cam. Now do flex fuel 😅
Great video.
When you burp the system the heater is on but do you put the a/c on too ?
