My thoughts exactly, 12k for a used sti 6 speed is wild 💀

@@zamkame39 I think you can buy a whole STI for around 12k depending on year and miles

@@zamkame39 Even for an STi swap.. You can do that for 6k all day, 8k at worst.

More like 18k just for the parts to make a PPG sequential STI trans.

12k for a sti swap is disgusting, I see full swaps going for 3-5k on the east coast

It would probably be less interesting since they wouldn't be constantly breaking them.

Spend extra 10-15k vs what in the real world is a 5k trans swap

@@SharamanONorgannon there are gd stis for 13k around me in great condition no rust. gd wrxs are usually 7-8k. There are 2 05 built motor rotated kit stis for 18 and 19 near me right now lol. maybe if youre in cali

@@402car_kid4 yeah in MN you can get late model STI Subies for a reasonable price I bet compared to cali😂😂

​@@calebrivera8550MN cars are actually pretty cheap, it's not a subi but I scored a pop up headlight 3000gt vr4 for $1400. Just had some surface rust on the roof in a small spot. You can definitely get a STI for cheap up here!

exactly what I was thinking the whole time, my whole setup came to just over $6k lol

dude for real. we have yards that sell everything for 5-6k over in my corner of the country

I think it’s the transmission and the rest of the components that cost a total of 12k

@Mozuf I'm aware my man. up here in New England, I have seen full drivelines with the 5x114.3 knuckles and brembos for 9k. the trans, diff, axels module ect for 5k is pretty standard

@@MozufWhole swaps with diff and axles are 6k

Wopw

Real weird bc these weren't their cars the whole season lol

feels philosophical in some way yk? Zach is the first host that they got by auditions (iirc), and Justin is the most recent one, very cool imo

@@vinnyb2947 you're a weirdo

I love the cope every time they make a new video from the suby owners. "Its reliable guys! You just have the change the oil pan and uograde the transmission and do a motor swap and also pray to the gods every 3rd friday of the month"

@@TheLongDonYou have to remember that the WRX came out super affordable and with an engine layout few people understand. If you want to make power, go buy a mustang. If you want a racing subaru, get an STI. But the WRX is simply meant to be a fun daily, not a track car

@@calebflora9304 Right, but that's not what it's used for. If you know your market is going to push the shit out of the car, wouldn't you at the very least not have a transmission that shits itself every 20k miles of slightly hard driving? Not saying it's a bad car, just bad for what it's target audience is

@@TheLongDon You can say that for any and all cars, cars from the factory are not made for hooning, none of them are and they all have weak points that need to be fixed. You maybe too young for this but we where blowing t5s in foxbodies and camaros with stock motors and sticky tires. There's a reason the 3rd gen firebird and camaro didn't come with a manual on the 350. Those cars would also twist them selves in half if you launched too many times, the rear end of the camaro was a constant risk of grenading, the 302 in the foxbody would also crack it's block if pushed past 500hp. That's just 2 popular American equivalent. It's even more embarrassing considering both mustangs and Camaros are sports cars from the factory. Same thing with the subie. An Impreza is a economy car, there's a factory performance version sure, but the actual base Impreza is for getting you to work sounding good and looking cool not for putting it down and especially not as much as these guys did. Like the foxbody mustang, sure there was a SVT Cobra and Cobra R, but your bonestock foxbody was a family car. Hot rodding is about making cars do what they're not made to do, and that involves a lot of work. I have a 4age 20v swapped E100 corrola with a AWD transmission imported from japan for the E104 corrola wagon. had to cut the floor and everything reform it. Engine revs to 11 grand, and makes almost 350hp all motor. You wouldn't believe how much work everything needed to not explode or maybe you would.

​@calebflora9304 but still 5 speeds were made of glass. So we're their headgaskets

yeah they kinda screwed themselves over there. they could’ve just gotten a used trans from a scrap yard for $4k (or even less)

​@misseselise3864 then they still had to buy the special gears to put in. Tgey said they already destroyed a few gearboxes so those standard ones were no option

​@TheAdatto they destroyed the 5 speed gearbox so instead of wasting money on that gearbox they should have done the sti 6 speed swap right from the beginning and 12k for a used 6 speed I way too much , brand new 2020 6 speeds go for 14k

that should have cost 6k though unless shipping was another 6k

PPG gears are like 5k for a full set, I bought for a little lower cause it was the close out deal. And an STI trans is only 3-4k this video is all over hte place

They're not bad transmissions to work on they just didn't do enough research on parts before purchasing

Hi car should be called peach-a-roo like Pikachu but a peach color Subaru lol

Welcome to the world of rebuilding transmissions... would you like to see the inside of an automatic transmission my good sir? Because if that tiny 5 speed gearbox blew your mind I know a few that will implode your mind.

@@Partnerthedog nah

@@Heroo01 👍 sit on it while you follow me around replying to 4 different comments I made like a creep

It would make sense 15 years ago and if it were rebuilt but sti transmissions don't cost 6k at a junkyard anymore

Exactly the setup I thought they’d run

no joke... kind of a huge let down on that part

They both have no idea they could just get a 2015+ sti trans and could hold any power level

I only paid 6500 for the sequential I ran in my blobeye sti. I can't watch this show any more nothing but money over brains. It's just a tax scam at this point.

Maybe it's time for them to actually take down THIS video and make the proper transmission swap

Yeah, donut should put this in their new shirt 😂

why not chuck the gear into a lathe and cut it down so it's balanced instead of eyeballing it.

expert was there to do it lol@@martin-vv9lf

@@martin-vv9lfseems as thought they have no lathe.

When I was a kid I remember my pops shouting out the window of our house "Grind me a pound while you're at it." when my mom was driving her first manual car outta the driveway in the morning.

Agreed, makes way more sense.

You're forgetting that they never know what they're doing when they modify this platform.

this is hi-low not dumb-dumber @@collinstrickland7565

But won’t that mean new driveshaft, new rear diff, axles, hubs, brakes…?

@@Fabulousprofound168 a full 6 spd swap is 4-5k

Why are the prices so over exaggerated

PMP has 6 speeds for 2500... idk where theyre spending the other 9k

I get that the other parts could have been brand new and paid a premium for but it just confuses me how they got that high

I paid $3k for the 07 STI swap in my base 16 WRX.

lebron would never

Didn't Wataru and Keisuke, do this exact handshake in Initial D stage 5. After Takumi drifted in front of the Imposter project D...yeah it was awkward then too 😂

When this happens, it's appropriate to exclaim "Stick shift!" and roll through the gears.

I could be wrong but wouldn’t u have to use the clutch going from second to third and fourth to fifth because of the synchros? Assuming u wouldn’t want to ruin them. But I would assume third to fourth would be fine clutch less

@@cedarabbot7263 Fourth to fifth, yes. 1-4 are dog gears and thus do not have synchros.

They introduced torque vectoring on the '08+ models. I actually don't even use manual mode unless I want full lock. I just set front bias for gravel and rear bias for pavement.

maybe they’ll do a vintage collection when they hit 10mil 🤷🏻‍♀️💗

They’ve re-released older stuff before at certain milestones

You're right, someone at Donut didn't do their homework again.

"The Driver's Control Centre Differential (DCCD) allows the center differential locking of the WRX STI to be dialed in and adjust its handling. It adjusts both an electromagnetic multi-plate transfer clutch and mechanical locking of a Limited Slip Differential (LSD) to distribute torque to the front and rear wheels. Auto Mode identifies the ideal power distribution for changing conditions, whilst Auto [+] keeps more power up front for increased traction. Auto [-] transfers more power to the rear for tighter cornering, and the six-step Manual Mode locks in the driver's favorite handling characteristics." This is literally from Subaru....

And the Accord

I second this great idea 🎉

Shift 1-2, ok. 2-3 *bang*. “I guess that’s just how it will sound now.” 🤦‍♂️ Gotta rev match on up and down shifts. Good practice for smooth driving on any car.
