      @@remissiveslaveread the comment again 170K miles isn’t a crap engine. Reliability comes at a cost on these cars. Proper maintenance, proper flaw management. Understanding why they fail is a very important process. The 2.0 EJ205 are pretty reliable, the 2.5 N/A was the H/G failure engine. The 2.5 turbo version also fails. The EJ207 semi closed decks are best bang for buck.
      I’ve pretty much overhauled my whole engine and rebuilt my Subaru from moreless scratch leaving no stone unturned. It’s the only way to do things properly. If you don’t, then you can’t expect these cars to run properly. You start running lean?. Don’t drive the car. Starved of fuel? Don’t drive the car, Vac leak, dodgy sparks or coils, don’t drive the car. Coolant leak? Don’t drive the car. Oil leaks that’s excessive. You guessed it don’t drive the car. If you do then that’s a you problem

      @LeeXRV 9 місяців тому +1

      @@AK_Audi I appreciate what you're saying chap but that was a huge jump each time by the newer cars, it wasn't close to being a fair start. In a turbo charged car I'd probably aim to be a little behind so I could be fully on boost at the start point but those two just did it all far too early and then roared past before they even got to the start line.
      I keep thinking Jamie needs to do something about people massively cheating (if that's the correct description) but it's hard with most of the people never doing this before.

      @AK_Audi 9 місяців тому +2

      @@LeeXRV Look at mark 6:54 how far behind the newer cars are. They maintain target speed (brake boosting more likely) behind the pace car and they “time it” just right to make it look they pass the start point together and at the same speed, but they are actually already going faster than target speed at that point. It looks like they jumped, but since they came from behind they actually slingshotted (as explained above), and it looks like they jumped. NOT A FAIR START EITHER WAY.

    I had a '17 STi (VA/evoeye) for 5 years. I loved it was comfortable and nice to take trips in. I sold it and bought an '02 (GD/bugeye). The raw feel, minimal driving aids, and classic feel is so much better than any newer scooby. Here in the US, bugeyes sedans are getting more and more rare too. Even though mines not the cleanest, it gets more attention than my super clean '17 STi ever did!

    Hatch's engine started producing a "bad mecanic" noise during the second roll race (9:47). It was just a question of time/hard pull. Vicky was probably not hearing it because of louds cars around her. Downside of having a loud exhaust can make you miss hearing when something related to the engine "run" wrong. The engine seem to produce a little bit more power/torque between 5.5~6.8k rpms than the WRX STi, but she does upshifting at ~7k rpm (maybe the turbo stop producing 560 bhp after), when the WRX STi keep pulling until ~7.6k rpm (maybe the area when the engine is producing 580 bhp). Meaning why the 100-200 kph are in favor to the Hatch in this exercice, and why the WRX STi is quicker on a longer distance (better top end). For a 2009 STi Hatch transmission, between 6.9k and 7.6k rpms in 3rd gear, this is 15~20 kph difference.
    The Blob Eye could be even quicker without the rear wing and the huge hole/parachute in the back, where the fuel tank is originally located. Without talking about the wing, just closing the fuel tank hole will make it quicker/more stable on track. That's why the rear bumper was falling off because huge parachute effect.
    This video is a good proof that differents setups can make subtils differences. Even just about talking about shifting sooner (shifting in the power range is a better formulation). What that surprising me the most is the ratio power/torque for a Subaru engine. Producing more than 800nm below 600hp is a big thing. From memories if I am not wrong, the old STi with the factory short geared transmission is not reliable above 600nm. A daily tuned Subaru usually stay around 490nm.
    Drag Racing with a 4WD + manual transmission + dry surface + semi slick is a very bad exercice for the transmission and shafts. Outside of competition, it's better to drive non slick/semi-slicks tires while letting tires slidings a little bit. In some case, the "better is better" is not the right answer.
    -------
    News cars with automatics gearbox have less of thoses issues because, the computers does everything. For youngers peoples born with the automatics transmission, this is the reality of manual transmission. However, automatics is a child game, better for reliability and doing same 0-60 etc in the same mili seconde range over and over.
    But driver's implication is a concern, the lack of communication between car and driver. Electrics cars ended the game. When a person not in car culture can do a quicker 1/4 mile in a electric car than a person in his Corvette ZR1, it mean that something is getting wrong, in term of security especially.

    I had the exact harnesses and very similar seats to you. As well as full cage.
    Those harnesses lead to the worst day of my life, I can only suggest binning them and getting some 5/6 points. My wife is still recovering 10 months after our crash and will be restricted for the rest of her life.

    But you're guna have to sort the roll starts out Jamie, the lad setting the pace in the gc8 hasn't got a look in since the 2 on the other side are hanging back then dive bombing the start. The rolls should have gone to the gc8 since he was the only one to do it properly! The others, with the exception of Kyle, are basically goin straight on at a chicane and claiming faster lap times. Sort it out Jamie!!! Nobody likes a cheat!!

      Two of them failed and you presume what?
      Do you know how many engines they build a year?
      How many Subarus they map a year?
      Why do you think people travel the world to have their cars built and tuned there. Hundreds of cars that are out there running around happily and all you see is the wrong end of it 👏

      That's not true. Harry's Subaru didn't break and took the win in the drag races against the OG Honda. That car was also built and tuned at Enginetuner. Kyle's Subaru which raced Sam's Evo didn't break, it unfortunately didn't put in the performance people would have liked but driver error responsible.
      Robs Type R didn't break in it's battle against the R8. Battling against Affi we knew the motor was getting tired but sent it anyway.
      Vicky's car in this video suffered a catastrophic component failure 😢
      It'll be back....
