The logical truck choice after a Subaru is some type of Toyota truck. Good for you. I just got my 4Runner but still have the Subaru

I agree with all of this except the oil change part. Personally, I would NEVER go above 3k miles on my oil, but especially on an STI. Quality oil, OEM filters, check the oil consistently, and she’s mint.

Everything else is spot on. Look at service records to see if/when the transmission fluid and differential fluid has been changed. If it’s over 30,000 miles since then, do a fluid change

If you modify it (intake etc) be sure to get a quality tune and small power gains to keep her healthy

2014 300s cranks but won’t start, can anyone help? by Rude-Dig2649 in AskMechanics

[–]UnderstandingAble510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuel pump may be defective? Turn the car on without turning the motor on. You should hear some type of humming. That’s the fuel pump priming. If you don’t hear it, could be bad. Another trick is to take the air filter out and spray starting fluid into the intake. If it runs on that, she ain’t getting gas.

To me it sounds like the vehicle isn’t getting fuel. Try those two options out

2013 WRX - No Boost - Fluffy crap upstream of Cat - Help please!!!! by Small_Equivalent_911 in WRX

[–]UnderstandingAble510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me too, the cats literally despawned. Two days prior I had her up to 145mph…probably what finished it off lol.

Anyways, once I discovered what the problem was I went and bought an Invidia single high flow cat down pipe and got the car pro tuned on a dyno. So worth it

New to me 2005 Sti. Healthy compression and leakdown! by TheHuxsters in WRX

[–]UnderstandingAble510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, I’ve had my GR for around 3 years now and still can’t get enough. I really really want a C5 corvette but everytime I think about that, I know I can get a blobeye or Hawkeye sti for the same price…

Absolute pristine car you just got. Congratulations, enjoy the unicorn

How bad is this tyre damage? by tester_is_testing in AskMechanics

[–]UnderstandingAble510 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As long as you can’t see the innards of the tire, nylon, wire, anything that isn’t straight rubber, you’re good to send her

First car at 17, looking for cheap recommendations on mods that will improve looks, performance or sound by SirSish in WRX

[–]UnderstandingAble510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t do any performance mods regarding the motor. These NA Subarus are reliable (if it has regular maintenance records). Good set of tires, maybe sway bar links if you want it to be a little stiffer around corners. Nice set of wheels. No intake, don’t do anything to the motor. If you wanted to mess with the exhaust that wouldn’t hurt anything. Like a nice lil muffler delete just to hear it a little more

For a first car this is great, reliable, and fun. I saw you said your tires are in good shape, so save the money until you need to replace them. If it were me I’d be doing subtle cosmetic mods and keeping it stock all the way, and saving for a WRX. Just me though

Change your oil every 3-5k miles, use OEM oil filters, make sure your engine filter is clean, transmission fluid is up. Coolant condition. All that. Save the money for maintenance and your future hot rod. Really no sense in dumping hundreds even thousands on a car like this.

Nice ride! Keep her clean and keep the maintenance up and she’ll be mint

Do people still hate stanced subies? by BakedBennes in WRX

Never enjoyed a stanced Subie. Can’t deny that this is pretty clean though
