Created for the new 2008 Subaru STi, this video is a rebuttal to the car community’s complaints that the new STi had become “domesticated” from its rally/racer background. Our inspiration was that the new model does in fact have the same power, poise, and exclusivity as the outgoing model. It anything, this is one “beast” of a car.

On the STI, the intercooler is on the top of the engine, its not front mounted. The intake is actually above the grill, its a cold air intake funneled in from there. The hood scoop is there to give the intercooler cold air, its what its there for, not for intake.
No this is the intake…… Lol the intercooler!!!! That would be in the very front of the car at the bottom!!!! Thats the whole point of the hood scoop on the hood the faster you drive the more air it takes in…
hahahahahahahahhahaha NICE !!
Funny. But this is not air intake. This is intercooler
hahahahahahaha THATS GOLDEN!!!
Ehh, I’ve got the best of both worlds, my friend. I daily drive a WRX and have an FC3S chillin’ in my garage this winter.
its actually the header that makes the unique sound.
Put equal length headers on the EJ and it sounds like a civic.
I was refering to the injector or valve tick, mine does both.
Boxer engines have a unique sound. Too many people mistake it for a misfiring or detonation.
No birds were harmed in the making of this commercial. Except one pigeon !
It ticks just like my car.
I wouldn’t trade my rx for anything. Rotary powa!
when we get back man and you wanna sell it let me know I will buy it back from you, I will pay cash, I miss that car so much lol hows it running lately???
Yeah i love it man ! , i was driving it around the other day ! . I think when i get back i gonna sell it and buy the new rx8 and turbo it with a gt35r
im driving a 2006 STi, thats what I traded in the rx-8 for i really miss the 8 though i would give anything for that car back, the sti is powerful and super fast but i miss my rotary engine lol
Hey , see your looking at subies too lol. Wht you driving now?
love this commercial loll
But 06-07 looks better !
tru but idk i kinda started to like it now haha
I’ll stick to my 06 not a fan of the hatch look….
Zawaliste 6/5
lol hella fake… this was not made by subaru… but good video though
you guys are idiots. They Redesigned the body so that they would be able to be in more WRC classes! Ford, Peugeot, Citroen, and yes, even Subaru.
I had an opportunity to drive both the 2007 and 2008 model STIs (pre and post facelift) and while the 2007 was a lot more powerful, it is completely useless for everyday driving. In fact, its excessive power detracted from the driving experience because there was no place where I could safely (or legally) open it up. The new one is (slightly) lower performance than it’s predecessors, but for practical use (i.e. city driving) it strikes a much better balance than the previous STIs.
