a quieter version of this tone is what I'm trying to get. I had the xforce 2.5in catback and it was horrible, just bass like a commodore v6. now got stock middle and sti quad mufflers, it's so quiet
Ay nice, and yeah with the wrong setup it can sound like a commodore or even falcon lol. Mine has actually gotten a bit quieter since this video, i believe there may be a little exhaust leak
They're great to drive! I don't have any, but I've heard coils and 1 or 2 suspension mods can make a huge difference. Had the car for 2 years almost, no real complaints as of yet
Hahaha good eye!! I actually had them done not long after I took this video. Polyurethane bushings so they’re super firm even now all these years later
Big ups from California! Super dope car mate! I wish these were more available in the states. I think only got the 2.5 spec b here. Either way that spec b is a gem! I would love to get one of these and sc it amd throw a bunch of sti components at it, at least brakes. Would move to Europe for it, hell. Any how great luck with the build! Subscribed.
Ayy thanks man :) and yeah it's a bit of a shame. The GT is definitely much easier to make power out of though, I'm gonna leave the engine stock til I get a good paying job :') Already upgraded the brakes on mine but am gonna order some coilovers before the end of the year.
We did get this engine in the 2008-2009 legacy 3.0R, and in the 2005-2009 outback 3.0R, I have a 05 3.0R outback wagon but it was only available with the 5EAT which, while passable, makes me sad
Yep! Main differences are different gauge cluster, different stereo (and piano black trim around it) different shifter cutout, (circle as opposed to a square) 2 separate cup holders with blue LED rings inside and of course SI drive. I replaced the stereo with a double din unit like a month after making this video
Sounds amazing is there a chance you could tell me about your exhaust system. Im trying to get my car sounding like yours i just dont know what exhaust to buy and stuff
Do you find this setup to be too loud in real life and does it drone at all? I've been sitting on a set of headers for a while now and I'm thinking of either getting a similar setup or if I should just get an Xforce catback with hi-flow cats
Definitely not too loud-easily drowned out by music, and not annoying. Drone is a bit of an issue for me, only around 2,500 rpm. That could maybe be fixed with a proper set of mufflers (I just have 2 resonators at the back). Don't remove the large middle resonator unless you get a whole exhaust system cos you'll have a lot of drone. I've heard headers can make it raspier but if you paired it with say, an X-force catback, hi-flows, and some good mufflers (e.g. TCP Auto) you could get something nice.
I've had this same setup since this vid (over 3 years now) and haven't had any other issues. I would like to get headers at some point, but it's not at the top of my priorities rn.
Nice car buddy. I have the 2005 legacy 3.0r Spec b. Stock everything except for cold air intake and running enkei rpf1's 18x8 rims. I can't get over how good they sound and the amount of people who stop me in she street asking questions about the flat 6. Alot are really surprised to find it was co-developed by porshe 😂. Any updates on your car since this upload?
It was not codeveloped woth porsche, stop stealing credit from something that is 100% inhouse Subaru design, juet liek EG33 before it and all other Subaru engines, only codevelopment ever was getting toyota parts for FA20 motor in BRZ/GT86 tonuse toyotas D4S injection system. EZ30 is Subarus own and FB/FA series are semi-derived from it end of story.
BookandRegan supercat I believe - slim matte black ones that weren't too wide. Cut the tips off the stock mufflers and welded them to the back of the hot dogs
Ayy yea they look nice, Ultrex makes some in that style too. If you want a bit of poke I'd go for something between 8 and 8.75 inches wide. When I get coils imma go for some 9s or maybe even 9.5s, they require a bit of camber and guard rolling ahaha.
Main things that help are handling mods, so coils, tyres, bushings, etc. I got mine completely stock too haha. First thing I got around to was the exhaust mods I did in this video. Then I did an upgraded sound system. Just recently changed my front and rear brakes as they were almost gone haha, got DBA T3 rotors and some Bendix pads. Next on the list is coilovers. I'm thinking of either getting some from MCA or Shockworks, but there are heaps of options out there. Only real way to get power out of these engines is to go forced induction, the least expensive route is a raptor supercharger. You could also try turbocharging, but to actually get a good increase in power you're looking at tens of thousands of dollars (I'm not joking lmao).
Fuck Tonne of W's I wanna get that resonator too! Haha it made a huge difference for me, because my 3rd cat was completely blocked and full of dust. Just with the muffler deletes it sounded strangely quiet and almost choked, removing the cat really helped.
Defs changed the tone a lot - it made it much less muffled and airy sounding, hard to describe. Afterwards it had a much fuller and sweeter tone (idk how to explain) sounded heaps better. It may or may not make a huge difference for you depending on the condition of your third cat
well almost 200k car so might be as bad as yours, maybe i just do 3rd cat delete and go off that and see if i need to modify the resonator :P thanks man
Is this exhaust setup easy to do? Can a completely inexperienced idiot like myself do this with a tight budget? ($500)? Car sounds absolutely mint by the way. Cheers!
Thanks! And yeah it shouldn't be too complicated. Took it to an exhaust shop and it cost me 500 actually haha. I watched them make it, seems like the hardest part is between the two primary cats and the third cat - there's a y pipe there. It's double or maybe even triple walled, which makes it super hard to cut through. However if you're keeping your third cat you won't have to worry about that (I think my exhaust is actually leaking a little bit there, some pipe seems to be rattling too) The rears are easy, my bolts were rusted af so just cut off the mufflers and welded on the new hotdogs + a bit of pipe. I'd imagine the only hard part there would be lining up the exhaust hangers.
Alright, Cheers for the quick reply! Excuse my lack of knowledge but If i bought quad tips would it be possible to weld them onto the new hotdogs? Or am I on the wrong track all together? Thanks
Hey all good, I just went to a muffler shop and got my two rear mufflers removed and replaced with small resonators. I also got the 3rd cat removed because it was blocked. If you have the xforce and want something louder maybe swap out the rear mufflers?
It used to! But now I've fixed it and it barely moves around at all - so much better. It is normal, the rubber bushes in the gearbox tend to wear down and break over time, so I replaced them with some much harder plastic ones so it's more stiff and will last longer :)
Subaru's flat 6 is a very good exhaust sound, Always full throttle!!
I just bought one 2 weeks ago and I love it !!
do you still have it? and has it been reliable for u
im keen on the 6speed manual also hehe
Sounds good man. I really enjoyed to watch as I am driving 😂. Looking forward to see longer videos

Sounds nice ...go's well to 👍🏼
Ride genthly through residential areas,
but when you come to japan,challenge yourself on the mountain passes.😁
hey mate. Killer sounding Lib. Wondering how bad the fuel economy really is in these things? Looking for one to replace my tired ba falcon 😛
1:50 caution pornographic content
can you post another POV drive but for longer, sounds really good!
Thanks man!! And yeah I'll try (: as soon as I find my go pro again haha. Think I have a little bit of an exhaust leak but still sounds great
Ah ok all good, I look forward to it! :)
Perfect video looking at buy one of these beast just wanted to see how it was like driving
They're great to drive! I don't have any, but I've heard coils and 1 or 2 suspension mods can make a huge difference. Had the car for 2 years almost, no real complaints as of yet
Looking into one of these for my first car, they seem pretty dope :) exhaust sounds mint
lol i know this drive! across the anzac bridge, in the mornings people fly through there at 110 because its so wide.
Shame you didn’t put some shifter bushings in when you had the exhaust off😅
Hahaha good eye!! I actually had them done not long after I took this video. Polyurethane bushings so they’re super firm even now all these years later

@@monochrome_sea I dropped mine off at the shop to get a 6 speed today. Where there's a will, there's a way!
@@peterjorgensen3 how did that go? what was the swap like and the shop costs?
Thinking of buying one soon .
insane sound 🤯
amazing sound
Is this the facelift model?? I love the interior and I'm trying to distinguish the differences
Yep! Main differences are different gauge cluster, different stereo (and piano black trim around it) different shifter cutout, (circle as opposed to a square) 2 separate cup holders with blue LED rings inside and of course SI drive.

@@quasarcreator Thanks heaps for the reply! I'll definitely be going for this model!
Envy from me!
We don have makintosh in euro subarus
Hey Mate! You are from Sydney? I have a Subie Liberty 3.0 MT too.. which exhaust you put? It is muffler delete? Tkss
Sounds amazing is there a chance you could tell me about your exhaust system. Im trying to get my car sounding like yours i just dont know what exhaust to buy and stuff
Nice BGM!!!!!

Great video! Which year model is it?
2008 :)

We all know why we are here
Have you subbed to Pewd yet?
Boxer 6 Porsche engine
Well, it was co-desinged by Porsche 😉
You sure about that, pal?
@@quasarcreator no it was not.

is this sydney?
it's weird how much it sounds like a jz
What brand were the hotdogs? Any tips on the end of it all or just pipe
BookandRegan supercat I believe - slim matte black ones that weren't too wide. Cut the tips off the stock mufflers and welded them to the back of the hot dogs
Where did you get them from? I was thinking of having some straight pipes done but this sounds so good
BookandRegan the muffler shop I went to (Bay Mufflers in Kogarah) fitted them. Not sure where to buy them though sorry
quasarcreator awesome, how much all up?
BookandRegan was about $500, because I got the third cat removed too which meant a new y-pipe had to be made and everything welded up
Are u running aftermarket rims
jacob #322 nah not right now, when I get coils I'll buy some wider rims haha
U know any good rim specs for a little bit of poke
quasarcreator found some sick rota g force rims
Ayy yea they look nice, Ultrex makes some in that style too. If you want a bit of poke I'd go for something between 8 and 8.75 inches wide. When I get coils imma go for some 9s or maybe even 9.5s, they require a bit of camber and guard rolling ahaha.
18x9 +35 offset on the g force with some coilovers thats what ill be doing
Are these also flat layout? Or did subaru use V like everybody nowadays?
They're boxers, so, flat layout :)
more please
Ez30 non turbo??
jacob #322 correct
Im about to buy one for my first car
jacob #322 good choice (: it's my first too
Would mods would u recommend the one im getting bone stock

What exhaust you running??
sports.
did 3rd cat delete make much of a difference? how so
im running just muffler deletes, thinking of getting 3rd cat delete and maybe vibrance #1790 basically bottle style resonator
Fuck Tonne of W's I wanna get that resonator too! Haha it made a huge difference for me, because my 3rd cat was completely blocked and full of dust. Just with the muffler deletes it sounded strangely quiet and almost choked, removing the cat really helped.
did it like change the tone like maybe more rasp or deeper or just same tone but louder?
Defs changed the tone a lot - it made it much less muffled and airy sounding, hard to describe. Afterwards it had a much fuller and sweeter tone (idk how to explain) sounded heaps better. It may or may not make a huge difference for you depending on the condition of your third cat

More slowly OK? boy.

It used to! But now I've fixed it and it barely moves around at all - so much better. It is normal, the rubber bushes in the gearbox tend to wear down and break over time, so I replaced them with some much harder plastic ones so it's more stiff and will last longer :)
