Aluminum is very thermally conductive. It will draw heat away from the engine bay opposed the that plastic piece which is more of an insulator. The effects of either are probably minimal being that they are underneath (warm air rises) and separated by air. But if anything the skid plate will act as somewhat of a heat sink.
So it is good or nah?
I have that skid plate. My header touched one spot, and started to melt it. I had to add 1/3" spacers to drop alittle lower
Good to see ya man. Glad you are all good. Subies forever.
Love watching your content man! Keep it up!!!
Great vid as always Jr. Been running one for about two years, definitely makes oil changes easier. Only complaint I have is it does corrode slightly over time. Might suggest getting the painted one or coating the bare aluminum.
nice man seen that on amazon when i first got my car and alwasys wondered about the quality! looks dope!
I've been wanting to get one of these for my STI, and as far as the drain plug goes, you could swap ports on your next oil change, it would be the prefect time to do it.
Yo this was a great video
man keep it up
I've been eyeing this skid plate for awhile...I think you convinced me to snag it up :) nice review
Wanna get it for me too vavoline fucked me up today😣😔😩🙁😕😫😖😟😞
Been meaning to try that Mtn Dew major melon flavor. Thanks for the reminder. Oh and the part looks clean AF.
Looks great!! Changing the oil is a PITA with the stock cover.
Great organization of your hardware with that magnetic tray. I do the same thing @work.
Damn that skid plate looks awesome!!
Happy to hear you’re doing well and let’s go on this new year 🤙🏽 Sweet undertray/skid plate also wondering about heat vs cooling temp. Might have to check one out if they make for older subarus. New type r looks so fresh
Thanks! You too bro!
this is the type of improvement parts I want. the stock cover is an unnecessary PITA to put back in. Ordering one right now. Still waiting on a good replacement head unit.
It looks good. I think it does make it easier compared to the plastic oem cover. I’ll probably get it
Dude. I just noticed your FMF pin. TYFYS!
Bro is living the dream ❤️
Over a year later: How's the skid plate holding up?
Great video dude! I'm a little late to the comments section since the video posted, but I just installed the rally version of the skid plate from TBW on my 2018 wrx sti. I noticed the U clips don't fit over the 3/16" metal on the very left and very right (where you have 10mm bolt/uclip marked). Are there different depths for U clips that I can buy? What do you recommend?
Have you run the plate against snow? We get heavy snow in the Midwest and I already tore off one of my fender brackets by the tire and really debating this purchase for the 2020 STi. Since install, any issues? Appreciate you doing this video. I didn’t know they made skids for the 2020.
Thank you for the video. Do you think it there will be enough clearance with Perrin oil cooler ? TIA.
It looks good. I hope it doesn't rattle.
Nice man
Just suscribed and thumbs up i like your vids and ride
Looks like I’m going to have to make some slight modifications to this lol I ordered off of Amazon and did not realize I purchased the wrong one for my vehicle !
Hahaha nice combo I also have a white type r and blue sti ! 🔥
This this pretty nice. I would get one
Just ordered one. How's yours holding up?
Do you have a good Hood vendor that you would recommend that comes with the hood latches pre-installed?
I had the same type of scratches when I got my skid plate as well. I just put Sharkhide on to protect the bare metal if they company put a protective coating on it. Ordered both through Amazon pre- COVID.....
Looks good!
BTW, MD Major Melon good stuff! Lol
Great idea! I'll check it out!
Sharkhide ?
looks clean. It probably won't work with my IAG oil pan since the drain is in the bottom.
that's what I was wondering
Would this work with an aftermarket oil pan I have an iag one that pan looked really close
Installed mine. Only flaws are it makes contact with mi toemi headers. And it rattles. Out side of that it looks good.
I wish i could put this on my WRX but i have the killer b headers on
Ny idea if this fits the 2020 sti? listed as 15-18
Yeah, mine came with a bunch a noticeable scratches as well... but it does go underneath the car so... meh.
Hey. Do you have the link for your car lift ?
Hi i was planning to make one do you know the dimensions of the skid guard by chance?
Dude I have the same one!!!
will this work with the IAG oil pan?
how does it look now?
9:07: I mean you couldn't go wrong with putting some more slats in there right just near the oil pan.
Improvise adapt & overcome
FMF 💪🏾
Where I can get the white crown and blue in your engine bay
That is an awesome addition, do you think it would work on a wrx?
Yes, they have a version for the WRX.
question, i didnt know this until i saw this video but when i saw your fumoto drain plug i noticed you still had that black piece still on. I just now remembered that I accidentally threw it out did i fuck up LOL? changed my oil today and put that fumoto drain plug in so
That black piece is just a safety. I doubt the valve will ever open up on it's own.
I guess it doesn't utilize the nice heavy duty factory skid plate?
Better than the plastic under tray.
Damn bro you a corpsman too? Rah ✌🏽
Why oil temp gauge not pressure gauge?
Do you hear a rattle when driving?
hmmm... been looking for something like this, but not sure about this being metal.. shouldve made this out of plastic just like oem imo
Do you know if hood scoop block offs would work on your vis hood?
I doubt it will work since the hood scoop opening is a little larger than stock,.
Is your oil temp gauge working good? I have an STI and is debating to go cheap or not on the oil temp gauge
No issues at all. Much better than having no oil temp gauge for sure.
i just bought this for my 2019 sti and it doesn’t seem to fit on the left and right side or in the back any tips ?
Amz has it on sale today. 104.99 LAFORMO brand
are you still using the mazda roki filter?i have the same skid plate and wanna make sure it wont have any fitment issue with the roki?
I ran out of Roki filters and have them on order.
1500-2000mi for oil change? 😳
is this gonna rattle?
mine came with scratches as well.
Honestly it's an under body part I wouldn't give a shit about scratches, how do you think it'll look in 25k miles? It's aluminum it'll be oxidized and scratched to hell BUT it's not for looks I'm sure it makes for a great heatsink of sorts and keeps everything much more protected than plastic.
I didn’t see a wrx link when I clicked on your link. Where can I get a 2016 wrx one? Thanks
Here you go. www.tbwperformance.com/2015-subaru-wrx-aluminum-engine-under-tray-skid-plate/
Can you check your clearance on your ELH? I heard there is occasionally clearance issues and if they touch it will melt the skid plate.
No issues at all. Plenty of clearance from what I can see.
@@CarsWithJR awesome to here. Surprisingly my parents got me the red skid plate for Christmas and I’m putting it on my next oil change :)
Any idea if this will fit the moroso oil pan ?
I’m not 100% sure tbh.
Hey man I see that ribbon rack there
What kinda lift do you use? Tired of using jack stands
Thats a QuickJack
First thing I bought 2 years ago.
U a navy officer?
I think I'll get it and color match it
That would look sweet!
That is a good idea, not sure how it would hold up to road trash and rock chips🤔
Does it rattle while driving? Like does it make any weird noise?
Same here. I'm thinking of getting it out the access doors and see if it still makes noise.
Is it lighter or heavier than the plastic under cover?
i believe its like half a pound heavier, atleast for the wrx ver
will it fit with stock oil pan?
Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure it will.
No dude it is a skid plate after all it's going to get scratches on it. This looks like a very good way to rally up your car and protect the underside
Do you mind if I ask what you do for a living I just bought my sti and I wanna make more money
I don't know if he's currently in the Navy but with his chest candy display, he's a navy guy.
I work for the US Government in helping disabled vets.
Link for those jacks you use?
This is the exact model I have. www.quickjack.com/car-lifts/bl-5000slx/
@@CarsWithJR thanks
what leaf blower is that? :B
Those scratches that's messed up. Damm.
Yer mate them scratchers matter when you pay good money my friend that matters
No they don’t lmao, its a fuckin skid plate, bouta get hit by literally every thing on the ground
@@sendjamin no shit you clown
How dare ya park the beloved STI outside? 😅
It's a Subaru...
What's the effect on the front jack point? Looks like it's unusable after install which would make jacking up the car without a lift more of a pain.
