Your knowledge is inspiring! Where are you based? I’m sure it’s not Dallas but that would be awesome. I’m trying to buy a 20/21 sti soon and need to find an expert like yourself since I have zero tuning experience
Ответитьi built for 450HP and have 338HP so
ОтветитьHey man what is your recommendation for Main bearing tolerances for force Induction fa20 (brz) ? Thanks
ОтветитьDoes anyone have experience with the turn in concepts 2+2 street block?
I just bought this prebuilt. Mainly went with this for the price point and power vs competitors like outfront or IAG. $3400 and 550awhp sounded like the best bang for buck option out there
There is something I am not able to get an answer for. With there being so many old Subarus with rebuilt/ reworked engines, do those old cars keep their AWD systems? Or do they buy new ones from the OEM?
ОтветитьI'd pay you to build me one! 🤔
ОтветитьWe did bolt stretch on naval diesels. Same type gauge just way bigger lol
ОтветитьI had a new motor shred itself a couple months back. We didn't touch the internals or the timing either, a shop did that. Turned out a lot of the head work he did was out of spec. Denied any accountability so I'm just stuck eating a 15k loss and having to get another motor 😅.
ОтветитьGood thing I’m a machinist
ОтветитьThanks bro!
ОтветитьHey man, I’m currently in the process of needing to build a engine I blew a head gasket in my 2008 legacy gt, I’m only looking for 350-400 hp which route do you recommend?
ОтветитьIsn’t it better if building a 750hp engine and use it at 400whp ? Engine should last loooog time ?
ОтветитьWho in the WA area do you recommend buying a pre built from?!
ОтветитьYou did the thing ❤❤
ОтветитьSooooooo I wanna build a 500hp engine, what do you think the best / easiest way to do that? Is it worth getting a type ra short block? Just build a stock ej257?
So many possibilities it's a bit overwhelming
Thought you were going to say the micrometer was the most important tool. 😁
ОтветитьWhat short block case did you use? I thought the oem cases weren’t good over 300hp
ОтветитьI want to buy a 400hp engine where should I buy it at?
ОтветитьIs it advisable to use plastigauge to set the bearing clearances on the ej ? I realize that the case halves would have to be assembled twice
ОтветитьWHAT A GREAT VIDEO. MOTOR SOUNDS SO GOOD. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHAT BRAND PISTONS YOU WENT WITH AND YOUR P/W CLEARENACE
ОтветитьHey so I got a bugeye I recently bought I wanted to know what I should do if I wanna push around 320-350 hp
Ответитьthis has me excited for my 09 wax motor is going back in this week and ill be fine tuning like you are doing. can't wait
ОтветитьH Smedia, how much money do you usually save building it yourself?
Can you buy closed deck blocks separately?
Really appreciate your help
Im on the fence on buying a wrx 2013 slighty modified guy has all the paper work to show it done profesionally. I hear alot of negatives about them and then i hear very positive things about them. I always liked subarus just never owned one what do do you think?
ОтветитьBest ak2 lachuteperformance build
Some their build last over 200,000km
super informative - thanks for this video. definitely gave me more confidence to build my ej within the next upcoming months
ОтветитьLearning can get expensive sometimes.
ОтветитьThanks, Smeedia. Good info, however I prefer to buy it pre-build it.
ОтветитьYou sir just gained a subscriber u are really detailed in your videos
ОтветитьI had to use a rod bolt stretch gauge rebuilding naval diesels. Waaaaaay bigger than that one lol but it’s nice to know my diesel experience transfers over quite a bit.
ОтветитьHmmm. What’s the best strategy and approach to this if the Sti is your daily driver. I don’t have a second vehicle….
ОтветитьI know this isn’t your recent video but I wanted to tell you you’re doing great my good dude. I’ve been watching you for a while but I always come to you for questions because you’re the man. I have a 2007 wrx and an ej20 you told me the 2019 type ra short block was pretty good for longevity. All I wanted to ask was if All I needed was the ej20 head and throw it right on the built block
ОтветитьI'm seriously considering building an FA20 short block come spring, never done it before so I am doing a ton of research now, I know I can do it, it's just as you probably know kind of intimidating. Where did you buy your short block internals? And do you have any good sources for me to get reliable bearing clearance and ring gap advice for the FA20? That's the only thing I'm frustrated on, I have no idea what the tolerances should be
ОтветитьThe big thing with building is who you take the block to to be machined. Whenever splitting the case on a EJ/FA the crank bearing and rod bearing clearances basically go out the window and should be re machined. It’s very specific and is something everyone should be aware of prior to building an EJ/FA
ОтветитьAnyone build these around nashville and want some extra hands lmao
ОтветитьNeed an engine mount too
ОтветитьSo glad I built my own motor. Aside from the cost savings, it is tremendously satisfying to have done it myself. I am also mentally prepared for it to blow up at any time, although it has been going strong for the past 30k miles :)
ОтветитьWhere are the best places to buy a prebuilt from??
ОтветитьDUDE! HECK YES! Love this!
ОтветитьNice video!!!
Ответитьi have a question, a brz supercharger or buy a STI? what do you think?
ОтветитьBest decision I made was building my motor like I took my time checking all brand new parts and rechecking like u said u have to be confident in yourself and it will go problem free I’m shooting for 450-500whp
ОтветитьHow did you get the case halves filled? machine shop?
ОтветитьIf they give you instructions on how to build it then everyone should be able to feel comfortable doing so. All you have to do is follow them right
ОтветитьRoll up those sleeves, son.
ОтветитьThoughts on the new wrx?
ОтветитьMan this whole journey of both builds has been so satisfying, inspirational, & most importantly knowledgeable !! I love the passion & dedication put into showing us the happiness these machines bring to us
ОтветитьHey bro how are you and I need to asked you something and I am so sorry for bugging you after I got my pro tune then I got my new head unit in my 2017 subaru wrx sti premium because it didn't have android auto or Apple CarPlay and the head unit I got put in was a kenwood dmx9720xds and my car battery is only a 450 cca and my car has been playing up do you think it could be my car battery because it's a bit small do you think that's why I'm having troubles keep up the good work I'm enjoying all your videos your number one fan in Australia Jason
ОтветитьI have a cobb sf intake for my 08 Subaru Impreza wrx hatch. will the intake fit in my 2016 subaru wrx sti limited?
Ответить
