Mrlolibre Considering that subaru's are one of the leaders in offroad rally cross. I'd doubt that any subaru owner stance nation or not would wonder why an all wheel drive beast like the WRX STi would be driven offroad lol.
+Joshua Andersen like someone already mentioned "because rally car" not a dropped rolled hella flushed car that can't be driven over school zone road bumps.
Could you elaborate on the "Other Stuff...." Please? I am getting a 2006 STi and am thinking about turning it into an off road beast.. Except I would use actual off road tires not rain slicks you crazy guy lmao so badass BEAST mode, love it.
sand... sand will find its way into everywhere.. i swear, throw a welded shut steel box around in the sand and upon cutting it open, there would be sand inside... i used to wheel in this area that had like a sand base under the decomposed stuff(we call this 'mud'), and after an afternoon there was sand in every dif, every corner of the engine bay, in the HVAC system, everywhere... :) but it was fun(until something broke.. then it was even more fun!) xD
i... LOVE IT!!!!! more subarus need to be built like this!! no more of this stanced crap. it's what the designers of the wrx had in mind when designing the car
Whats that thing in the front called? I got an evo x and basically only reason i'm not trying stuff like this, is because I don't wanna use my bumper, lol, that would prolly solve it.
+longboarder964life I went with 18x9.5 +38mm offset/stock tires with 20 mm studded wheel spacers.The fitment was super aggressive. I had to take a hammer to the insides of the wheel fenders and roll em out. I have a 2011 STi hatch so you can gauge that your fitment will be gnarly on a 14 as well.
The sound of the boxer engine...hands down a thousand times better than the music u chose
+Russell Kasprzyk It sounds decent ;)
finally a guy whos not affraid to use a car based off a rally platform for whats it was basically designed to do lol
It was design for so called flat rallies .. not cross country- baja rallies
I bet the "Hella flush" and "stanced" guys are baffled on why you would drive a Subaru in dirt.
Mrlolibre Considering that subaru's are one of the leaders in offroad rally cross. I'd doubt that any subaru owner stance nation or not would wonder why an all wheel drive beast like the WRX STi would be driven offroad lol.
+Ryan Cyr completely agree. I can appreciate almost any well built Subaru. Not sure why this guy needs to hate for no reason.
+Mrlolibre to each their own :)
+Joshua Andersen like someone already mentioned "because rally car" not a dropped rolled hella flushed car that can't be driven over school zone road bumps.
I have a daily "street clean" WRX 14 but would love a blobeye play car
I thought those dunes looked familiar. I ride there all the time. love that place.
monster1176 where is it at?
Datsun Z 3:38
Holy crap guys! You must really like Subarus...or sand dunes!! 173,453 views and counting. Be sure to check out my other car vids and subscribe!!
Great vid, I love the lit flag and the bumpers look great too.
Dope!! I got plenty of desert here in Dubai. I wanna get my Impreza fitted for dunes! :D
+Ikram Durrani I have been to Dubai a couple times, great place to visit!
+FTW Tuning Let me know next time you come down. My Impreza is lifted now and I'm currently sourcing Sparco Terra rims :)
+Ikram Durrani will do! good choice for wheels, I love those!
What's the size of the lift?
God that looks like so much fun.
Wish I had dunes around here I could try that on with my WRX.
+Clinterus Roadtrip to Oregon! :D
Awesome car & set up. The AWD power love it.
cheers!
After all the "Stance" most guys do to STI/WRX its nice to see someone go the other direction.
Damn that looks like alot of fun!!!
+SuperKrazychild It was a blast!
beautiful car. ace work.
+liberandon Thanks mate
Awesome glad to hear that.sounds like you are pushing the Subaru hard full throttle.kool sh.. bro
Just got a subaru impreza wrx 08 as a first car and i fucking love it!
SnackZ atPC Congrats, take care of it and stay on top of ALL maintenance intervals!
Sounds BEAUTIFUL. Fun to see an STI that still looks sweet yet actually drives like Subaru intended... #becauserallycar
Badass AS HELL!!!! Would LOVE to see MoRE!!!!
I'm liking the all the details and crazy stuff you guys do to cars around town. But the mistress is A BAD BITCH! the license plate set up is chill!
michael shaffer Thanks man, I'll pass that onto the owner! Brap!

don't know if it's me or your camera but why is your exhaust a bit farty? Still good rumble though?
bone476 it's you. it's a straight dump from Garrett turbo out the hood.
Sounds like shit... Definitely know what I WON'T be doing on mine LMFAO
No way! I love your guys shop I go to UO. I emailed your shop about plastidip for my cobra but you never hit me back lol
Hey Corey, sorry to hear that. Try emailing me directly at bryan@ftwtuning.com
Or hit us up on Facebook, facebook.com/ftwtuning
i... LOVE IT!!!!! more subarus need to be built like this!! no more of this stanced crap. it's what the designers of the wrx had in mind when designing the car
Glad you like! 😎
Seems a small nitrous kit would help alot. Sounds good when the power does come in though.
Help with what?
Turbo spool. Low end torque. Help all that bogging when you shift.
+Raymond Mckinney She did just fine
that looks so much fun
it was a blast!!
that looks really fun!
+Dale Cocking It was a hoot!
What bumper is that? Custom fab or a company I've not seen? Not a ton of off road Subbie gear available.
It's a custom fabricated bumper.
Dude! you drive on the south jettie?
Lawnmower at 1:12
Guy will never get the sand out of every nook and cranny...
Indian Giver he actually did!
Whats that thing in the front called? I got an evo x and basically only reason i'm not trying stuff like this, is because I don't wanna use my bumper, lol, that would prolly solve it.
Generically, it's called a "Bash Bar". The owner custom fabricated this himself. 😀
love this video
Is the car still running 👍💯
mosnin 7.62x54 hell yah!!
lol nice,but that wouldn't work here in Australia's Dune sand too soft
name of song? sounds cool
Ellie Goulding
burn ellie goulding
Do you have a modified clutch because when I did this in my Subaru I nearly burnt out the clutch....
is your 4wd system stock or have you installed any lockers?
+Rafael Domenikos Subaru OEM
Damn this is cool.
+ognaysayer Cheers!
This is fucking awesome
So beautiful 😍
Where did you get those small led bars on the front bumper?
You can order them on ebay or amazon. They are called cree led light bars you can get any size you want.
+sporty450r Online
Subie goals
Dream big! Do it!
where did you get the push bar for the front
Kevin Root custom built with scrap metal
What tire setup do you recommend? I want to take my Subaru down to the dunes
These are rain slicks.
What kind of lightbar is that? The vertical one.
it is a led flag
Fucking Fresh!!! 503 NW Subies!!!
Who built this bumper I wana do one on my Wrx
We did
+turbostixxx could u email me some pictures of it on the car and like of the build ?
Is the car at all?
Can't sand getting up in the parts destroy your car eventually?
Renit Rift probably, but it's been washed with water ;)
by chance do you know where i can get a turbo kit for a svx
Kevin Root never turboed one of those. probably custom as well
do you need spacers or hubcentric rings for proper fitment for the wheels? just ordered some rpf1s for my 14 wrx
The wheels are 18x10.5, tires are 275/35-18. This setup would be very agressive on your WRX.
+longboarder964life I went with 18x9.5 +38mm offset/stock tires with 20 mm studded wheel spacers.The fitment was super aggressive. I had to take a hammer to the insides of the wheel fenders and roll em out. I have a 2011 STi hatch so you can gauge that your fitment will be gnarly on a 14 as well.
whats the song called in the beginning
Shazam
turbostixxx shazam? By?
Ellie Goulding - Burn
Why are the windows down?
cause its probably hot and he isn't running his ac
My next project.. To build impreza off road
Does it have a bigger turbo
+afzaal razack Yes, it did not make 500 whp on the stock turbo.
FTW Tuning random question but have you guys ever done a JDM ej205 swap into a usdm wrx?
what suspension does the mistress have?
Datsun Z for the purpose of hooning at the dunes, it was raised on Forester springs/struts which had to be custom fitted
turbostixxx does she use the same setup when you jumper her over the curb?
Datsun Z yes! 🤓
Remind me to never buy a car from this guy...
LOL :)
Eric Christiansen Omggg lyke sooooo original
Not a problem; If you find one for sale, give me a call and I get it out of your view.
It's gently used
Cool
You're cool too!
turbostixxx You're too cool to drive a Subaru. #EVOSRSLOW
Andy Tatman I don't drive rice burners. Haha
+Andy Tatman Drool!
Anybody know the name of this song?
Some remix of Ellie Goulding - Burn
Darude Sandstorm ! Lol just kidding mate, Ellie Goulding burn Codeko remix.
Rust?
No rust. We were far enough away from the salt water, plus, she got a very thorough wash afterwards.
i wish i could do this :(
+gendz yu Anything is possible
Sick as fuck
It sounds like a freakin diesel at low rpms
Would've loved the engine sound more then the damn music
the only thing more stupid than this would be a 64 Cadillac on switches and Daytons in the desert
The heck?
Rip air filter lol
It has a K&N pre-filter sock on it.
+turbostixxx Okay cool. Awesome car by the way
how cool! follow me
This is an rc car you dumbass...... wow people will believe anything. look closely you fucking morons!
LOL Good one! :)
It's too bad they allow motorized vehicles in such a beautiful and fragile place.
What is that big light bar sticking up ???
Boxerboost 15 STI An LED whip pole with flag. Need to have one on ever vehicle at the dunes. The LED is just for fun
Rip air filter lol
It had a K&N pre-filter sock on it.
turbostixxx pics or proof
+Chad Andersen My word is my bond.
turbostixxx Rip air filter lol
