Thanks misha for this splendid drive. Hi everyone its owner here. Its does have a oil cooler and big radiator. car has no problem running donington silverstone even SPA. all we mention on the clip was the oil temp.
Was so stoked to finally see Misha drive a VA. As a VA STI owner myself, I'm so envious and wish I could have the ride of my life like you did with and incredibly talented driver making the most of my car. We'll, I got the next best thing and I'll be Savinng this video and I'll be watching it over and over again on my TV at home. How is your car after rubbing so hot for so long? Did you have a baffled oil pan as well? What turbo are you running with your fmic? Was this run done on E85?
@@stansuarez it full stock engine and turbo have a service after this run and everything was fine. It’s a bit difficult to find e85 in Europe however the gas in Germany runs a high rate so everything was good
It’s crazy how many cars can’t cope with a full lap without overheating or the brakes fading like crazy . Kinda makes all the endurance cars so much more impressive
Because most people only invest in the cheapest way to impress friends, they dont know how their cars will behave in real racing conditions, which is overheating and melting. If you increase power, you need to improve braking and cooling, period. If you don't do it this will happen.
@@ALIENdrifter66not necessarily my tuned Saab Viggen doesn’t overheat as badly as my friends GR86 when we run on our local roads and his car is stock and mine is tuned
Stock cars absolutely can and do overheat if they are not designed to be driven this way (which many are not). There is no point to install oversized radiators and overpowered cooling systems if they will never be seen under design operating conditions and would be a waste of resources and money. Sometimes cars are adapted from the factory for local conditions in the target market (e.g. climate).
You need to take into consideration that Nurburgring is very long and has some proper elevation changes. I bet this Subaru can do like 3 laps on a average 2-3 km long, flat racetrack with ease. And after cooling lap you will be able to do this again.
Ähm, okay. Hat der Subaru nicht angeblich 390 Ps, oder waren es 319. Und selbst dann... 300 ps sind viel :D Oder bedeutet a ton of hp 1000 ps... Have a nice day or whatever. Sorry for the german
I owned a 17 STI for 6 years and it was built and driving was a lot of fun but my eyes were always on the coolant temp and as soon as I saw it go Up my heart dropped from PTSD hahaha
My temps on my VA also inches up on hill climbs even if I have the koyo rad and perrin oil cooler but it never gets *that* hot and the temps drop quickly as soon as I let off a little. Having said that. I also hyperventilate as soon as the temp needle starts moving. Hahaha
@@stansuarezthe Perrin Oil cooler suffers behind the FMIC. I actually placed mine on top of the FMIC and routed the lines differently. Zero issues with the oil getting too hot or even the coolant temps sky rocketing.
I would think the front mounted intercooler would have something to do with it. Big impact or not on daily driving, when driving for a long period of time on track that difference could be exponentially greater.

I’d like to see the fallow up with this guy and see if his piston ringlands got damaged and or second rings overheated and lose tension. Needs an oil cooler for sure, the oil gets hot and can’t cool off.
@@siraff4461that's one reason I decided to stay with the top mount on my VA. I do get less WHP at 365whp on pump Gas but at least my Koyo Rad gets better airflow.
@@stansuarez Yeah cooling gets a big issue as you go for more power and a lot of people just go for the power without considering its implications on everything else. I would take ~30hp less reliably all day over an extra bit of peak that you can't really use for fear of cooking something. Lets be honest - 365 wheel is still a lot of power and more than enough to be great fun. My old Impreza (GC8) was only just over 300 wheel but it had the right mods and I could just beat on it all day until the tank went dry then beat on it again. Fun fact - the best mod I did to that car was the gearbox and diffs from an RA. It revved hard at high speed but I never took it on long runs anyway and it was a much better drive when caning it. Short/close gearing really works on them.
@6:45 it was then, that he knew, his engine was F-Ed..... I could smell the coolant through the screen. Then a minute later I'm guessing the car kicked itself into a different mode (Sport Sharp to Sport?) to try to prevent further damage..
As a Subaru owner and enthousiast always fun to see one on the channel. The emotion of the boxer engine is something special. I’m going to try to get you into your old car this year.

This car was my dream, but It was impossible to get well maintanced car with some not the highest mileage and at a reasonable price. So I took Giulia instead.
I wonder why Subaru (and many others) ignores cooling. I saw Best Motoring International, where one episode was focused on cooling and results were really bad. It was before year 2000, yet more than 20 years later they still dont give a damn about it.
They probably didnt design a car to have 400 bhp and most people dont drive this hard for so long as you cant on the road and the engines are not designed for being 2.5 liters also which dont help with it staying together
Man, running those cars with the thermo that high is the quickest way to blow head gaskets, main seals, valve cover gaskets, and pop radiator hoses. That just isn’t worth it. That needs a new oil pump and regulator or going radical, a sump. I’ve had mine balls out through severe track abuse and never had any oil pressure problems (high-low) or temp problems running high. Dude should have backed out.
I do cringe a bit in the manuals when he slams gears flat without finding the biting point properly, could be done a little more gentle at first as your brain learns the points as by 3rd 4th corner it’s fine but out of those cones it’s rough as toast every time😢
Great car and video ! Gonna bring you mine next year (hopefully) which has every reliability mods + chassis renforcement and brakes upgrade ! Just want to put Sportster CSs in !

Subarus are great, but they didn't make it for 390 horsepower. Mine never overheats with 280 horsepower, even in 10 min hill climb racing. PS: My radiator is stock.
I heard the issue with subaru engines is mostly because of emissions! (Making pistons prone to melting and fragile because of piston ring placement which is too high).
@@wanderer7779 yea we're lucky we even got turbo ejs in the US because they had to be heavily restricted for our emission laws, and it only got worse over time so reliability took a hit. JDM turbo ejs are highly regarded because they could actually breathe and make power

Hi Misha, Is it Normal for you Only , to Drive Race Car 's from Left Hand Drive and to the Right ( Operating Shift Gears ) ???
As a subaru mechanic, those head gaskets are now DEFINATELY done. Hope it was fun
I heard the issue with subaru engines is mostly because of emissions! (Making pistons prone to melting and fragile because of piston ring placement which is too high).
Not true at all for EJ257 didn’t have head gasket issues it had ringland issues your no Subaru tech your an imposter
Nope nth happened to the car and it made it though my whole Europe road trip
@@wanderer7779 yea we're lucky we even got turbo ejs in the US because they had to be heavily restricted for our emission laws, and it only got worse over time so reliability took a hit. JDM turbo ejs are highly regarded because they could actually breathe and make power
I'm not taking my Subie to you cuzc apparently you know nothing about them from your comment lul
Hello, new to the channel, could anyone explain why does Misha takes such long time between shifts throughout the video? Is that normal for track?
I think he’s just making sure he gets extra clean shifts to preserve their clutch and transmission. He drives so many peoples different cars that he might just be playing it safe.
Great lap, that coolant temp though 😅Look forward to a VB lap!
i appreciate that 4014 shirt.
Out of all the cars misha has driven the sti seems like the one he’s most confident with, thing has so much grip !!!
Was excited til I saw 6k limiter 😂
I wonder what that "wubwubwub" sound was when you're deep into 5th gear
Gotta love Subaru's!

No apostrophe needed, it's just 'Subarus'.
@@xmxlyyy thx
Did you have to change much of your driving style on this?
4th is still front row! Haha 😂❤
Is the temp guage working
I saw this on the gt350 video and was wondering if I'd get to see it! Cool to see a VA like mine on the channel.
Love my stock '20 STI; this particular engine and exhaust set up sounded fantastic. The coolant temps though! 😳
