The "driveline shock" is because of rev hang. So when you shift too quickly the RPMs are slightly too high for your gear. If you shift slower the RPMs drop a bit and thus it engages better. Happens in my STI all the time. Interestingly if you put on the AC on, the RPMs drop way faster and you can shift quickly.

I used to have a 2010 WRX hatch. It was a blast to drive. In February 2018 , I need to replace it (need to rebuild the engine and issues) and I checked for the 2018 WRX. The problem is I wanted to be hatchback. Also, it was missing some tech feature like Android Auto and Apple Carplay. So I decided to take the GTI over the WRX. This special edition still on par with the GTI and focus ST. It’s just an expensive trim like any high end trim. I think if I have to choose a trim for the WRX it will be the 'Sport' one at 35k CAD. I just wish they come back with a hatchback body. Great review guys !

Update to owning one. Finally got to try mine in a real winter storm. Did purchase a second set of wheels and snow tires as it comes with SUMMER ONLY tires stock at least in the USA. With winters? PFFFFFF LOL what snow? I was plowing snow with my front bumper (we had a storm drop 11-13" ~25cm) of the stuff in my state which typically doesnt see snowfall that high like you Canadian boys do. Literally unstoppable. I had more fun driving it in snow than should have been legal. If you get lots of snow I really cant recommend this car enough (along with proper tires). It handles so predictably, so confidently that it really sets the standard for winter driving as far as Im concerned. Seriously the storm was bad. Took me 2.5hrs to get home during that storm. Just because no one else could get anywhere. Finally got on a side road to get around the people stuck going up hills. This car got me home safe. To give you an idea some people were stranded on the highways. Some stuck 6hrs+. Highways shut down. Also im averaging something like 27-28mpg highway.

The main reason for the understeer on both wrx and STI is because of the front positive camber on the tires.
@Lightspeed-eo6nw
@Lightspeed-eo6nw 6 лет назад
manny9800 that’s a contributing factor that sure doesn’t help. I had to dial in crazy camber to prevent it going positive in turns for autocross. That helps, but only so much. It’s the physics of hanging a motor in front of the front axels that it the biggest problem by far.

in the wrx, it's not a tuning issue. It is a small turbo/manifold issue. It chokes up top. Can be fixed to an extent with a better tune but it will still be there. e85 tends to fix it and strapping a bigger turbo and better manifold got rid of it completely for me.

@wisdomntshalintshali3296
@wisdomntshalintshali3296 6 лет назад
The torque dip between 4000rpm and 6000rpm seems to be a weakness with the Sub boxer engines. It's one of the biggest complaints in the Toyota GT 86 and Sub BRZ. People who bought those cars would change the header exhausts to fix the problem and then flash tune it. I thought it was better with turbo charged engines but I guess not. I guess the stock exhaust manifold makes the car suffocate in its own exhaust gasses that's why installing a new header always fixed the problem in the GT 86 platform
@Snadzies
@Snadzies 6 лет назад
I have a 2018 WRX and can 100% confirm the engine falls on its face at around 5,000 rpm. I hear an ECU tune helps a lot, many people posting even simple stage 1 Cobb tunes saying "This is what the tune from the factory should be." I don't want to give up the warranty so early on, though, as I just hit 4,000 miles.
@MreignSupreme

@gavinbaker2508
@gavinbaker2508 6 лет назад
Sorry, this isn’t true for the STi, in fact it’s the opposite. The bigger turbo means it takes longer to spool, unlike the twin-scroll FA engine that the WRX uses. A lot of power comes from the 4000-5500 range.
@wisdomntshalintshali3296
@wisdomntshalintshali3296 6 лет назад
Gavin Baker problem is not turbo lag. Turbo does kick around 2500 then you hit 4000 it's goes splat, then kicks back In after 5500.. This problem is with how they engineer the exhaust manifolds. With the NA engines in the BRZ as well as the GT 86 it would only improve after they replaced it with new header exhausts. Mazda, although not the same type engine figured out a way not only to enhance power but even improve efficiency by designing headers that are paired according to the engine's firing sequence to eliminate engine knock. I think the thing is exhaust pressure lingering in the exhaust manifold interferes with how the engine performs.
@jobob4321
@jobob4321 6 лет назад
It's the stock tune that's the issue. This car is set up from factory to be fun, but also conserve fuel. When the Turbo kicks in, the vehicle runs very lean (as most factory tunes do), you get the nice boost effect, smile on your face and then at 4500rpm it falls flat. The reason is the car running as lean as it does, its gonna start to pull timing to prevent knocking. The pulling of timing is the flat spot between 45-55 hundred. Why do you think you can get away with running regular fuel in the WRX? Get a proper tune, ditch the regular fuel for premium and the car will run as it should. Keep in mind too that if this WRX pulled as it should all the way through the rev range,.. it'd would be dangerously close to being called faster than the STi... so then how does Subaru sell the STi?

Yikes, I paid $45k for the Sport Tech STi in 2012 (Canadian, of course). All those locking/limited slip differentials make a HUGE difference in the snow compared to the WRX... and basically every other car on the road. $41k (or $39k) for a WRX, even if it does have a 6-speed now instead of the incredibly fragile 5-speed they were selling in the WRX back then, seems sort of insane.

I have a '17 Focus ST with a Roush catback exhaust and I've had a few run-ins with some WRX's. They'll always be quicker off the line than an ST because of the drivetrain but they aren't really faster. I can more than hang with a WRX but the real joy of an ST is the feel and handling. However, I like the idea of doing a comparison: WRX vs. GTI vs. ST. And not only with performance but in feel and driveability.

what Subaru should have done is offer the WRX in hatchback configuration or offer a Crosstrek WRX! Other than the Raiu Edition, the 2019 WRX's interior is almost the same as my 2016 Crosstrek! Looking forward the new generation but unfortunately, I am giving up my least within 6 months, so I will have to make a choice and the current WRX generation doesn't make it for me!

I bought a 2018 wrx over a GTI or ST because of the AWD. I live in a very snowy area and that was a big deal. Interiors on GTI and probably even ST are better but AWD was the selling point. Didn't want to/afford to pay up for the difference of a Golf R or Focus RS. So for the money and if you need AWD, I think this car was a good choice
@Snadzies
@Snadzies 6 лет назад
Similar story for me. I drove a Mustang for a decade year round (sanding and shoveling were a way of life in winter) and thought FWD was a god send when I picked up a used Focus (SES, nothing fancy) during that first winter with the Focus. Sold the Focus a year later for a used WRX because I just didn't enjoy driving the Focus and wanted something fun but practical and discovered that Oh My God AWD is freaking amazing. When it came time for a new car I stuck with the WRX (2018) because AWD was so awesome and I just couldn't justify the extra $10,000 - $15,000 for an STI or a Focus RS as I knew it'd never see any serious track time.

I just bought the American version of this car (Series.Gray), and it seems that they've addressed some of the problems you had with it in your original review. Subie grumble is back(somewhat), and they did some deletes to make it a little lighter and a little cheaper. No sunroof, SRH's, driveline shock doesn't seem too bad. Love the videos fellas, keep it up!

I really wonder if that Pikachu version will find any buyer amongst the Subie fans... I mean, if you are a fan of a brand, it is not because you love their “second best car”. You do not love the Merc E63 because the E43 is fantastic. You buy the E43 because it is a more reasonable choice. The same way you buy a Boxster because you cannot afford a 911... But how reasonable is a WRX which almost costs more than the base sti? I hope Subaru will come with some better ideas and begin the new decade with more thrill and passion, otherwise we will all end up driving sad Golfs!
@georgeharris3890
@georgeharris3890 6 лет назад
Yeah but again it's only 100 cars so I don't see them having trouble selling them. Some cars in this price range have fancy paint options for like $800+ USD and this sort of that plus some other changes. On the other hand it's only 100 units so it makes me wonder what's even the point? The only thing that really comes to mind for me is market research, so they can collect data telling them where they sold and how quickly/slowly, etc. to decide if they want to attempt a similar larger scale pricey trim down the line.

I just wish that it came out a year earlier when I bought my Regular ST, I would have definitely spent the extra money on it brand new.
