Our most humble friends at Rallysport had this used J pipe sitting around that they sent over. SO why not toss it on our 2023 Subaru WRX. We're headed over to Bader built soon to get a tune slapped on this thing. NOW there is something is want to warn you of and that Is J pipe studs. I WARN YOU NOW THAT THEY WILL MORE THAN LIKELY STRIP. ORDER EXTRA STUDS AHEAD OF TIME, HAVE NUT EXTRACTORS, A TORCH. Literally, anything to help you remove destroyed studs because I can almost promise it'll happen. But overall pretty happy with how this thing came out.

@ryanoconnor3923 8 месяцев назад

I'm with ya Tanner! I bought a creeper about 10+ years ago and it just sits in my garage collecting dust. When you work on rusty cars in the midwest, almost every nut and bolt is a struggle. Try putting all of your force into rusty fasteners and not push yourself all over the place on the creeper thus losing your effectiveness. Put your feet down as much as you want, you're still rolling all over the place. I'm with the other guy.. Cardboard is the best. That, or lift 😅

@josephmatuszak3855 8 месяцев назад

I love those wheels. They really help tie in the curves and notches of the '23 WRX. *PS* I spray PB Blaster on a whole day before removing exhaust stuff. And since I've done that... not a single broken bolt that still had recognizable threads. Upon re-installation I like to use a mix of super high temp grease and anti-seize. Snug em up good, fire up the car and warm it up, and than re-check each fastener that is under heat stress areas.

@Smeedia 8 месяцев назад

That's not a bad idea, I ONLY ever have this problem on FA engines for some reason. Assuming that they get significantly hotter 😅

@josephmatuszak3855 8 месяцев назад

@@Smeedia Rotary engine make more than enough heat to seize up various exhaust bolts/studs. As well as my years of working on american V8s (the horror stories of header and X/H pipe bolts is endless) and the midwest with it's salt an corrosion, you may have to PB blast once a day for a week to make sure it's creeped as far as it can go, but it works. This has been my SOP for exhaust for at least 15 years now. Night before, spray it on, just before working on it, give another quick spray, should pop loose.

@TheSwampDonkey 8 месяцев назад

Tanner, its cool watching you make the 2022 plus WRX look and feel a lot better. It gives me some hope that once I am ready to return to the Subaru platform, I have some options. I don't regret getting rid of the 21 STI for the Hellcat but once I move up to WA, I will need AWD again. I have been thinking about an older STI, 04-05. I know you know those all too well or for a little more, I can get the new WRX. Options are good. Anyway, I can't wait to see what else you do with it.

@Smeedia 8 месяцев назад

How are you enjoying the hellcat? 🔥 If you're okay with having to repair an older one, I'd say get the GD. But at this point, they ALL need some serious love now 😩

@@Smeedia I am enjoying it. Hard to get any traction. The adjustable suspension is cool. I can go from medium stiffness to hard as fu&k and way too bouncy for anything other than a track. lol. Its way different than the STI. I do miss the handling and traction the WRX's and STI's have. Overall the Hellcat has way too much power but its a comfortable boat. :) Thanks for the info. When it comes time, and I am in WA, I will look into the GD.

@TheDailyRex 8 месяцев назад

I have a 2018 fa20 and I just recently swapped my catless for my catted one and one of the grimspeed titanium studs did exactly what yours did. Had to drill the stud out and completely rethread the turbo. I think the culprit to this is no flex pipe from the turbo to the hard mount exhaust hanger. Vibrations and scraping the ground I think just wrecks the threads in some cases.

@Smeedia 8 месяцев назад

@markgeletzke6328 8 месяцев назад

I can't remember who make it & I think I got mine off a Cornwell Truck but someone makes a die kit in both SAE & Metric that has a hinged die that you can spread apart and install at the base of the stud where the good threads are, use the removal tool it comes with which is much like the tool for a die amd back the tool off from good threads to the damaged threads. It does a really nice job at cleaning the threads and you don't need to worry about cross threading.. Look into it, its not a tool truck brand and I'm sure u can find elsewhere..

Mine has left a black stain over a few months from warming it up at one slip fit but the others are clear water drops. Also on a cold start I can feel air from the slip fit closest to the intermediate pipe. I’ve tightened them down now twice and being tight enough isn’t that issue and I’ve rotated them 45 degrees like awe said and yet still a slight leak.

It happens to all of us 😅 the more you deal with the crap the more solutions you'll come up with 👀

Cutting the bracket causes it to be non-functional by allowing the bracket to rotate if the turbo sags. There’s a reason Subaru designed the bracket that way, and it’s really not that hard to reinstall it.

With how tight the J pipe nuts are there is no way they'll be able to rotate

I live in the city and couldn’t stand driving a manual and can’t afford two cars at once so I traded my ‘11 wrx for a ‘21 GTI DSG. I love this car so much, but miss the WRX 😢

Tbh the GTIs are a BLAST, I love our 16 GTI, also a DSG 🔥

Yo I DM on Instagram about your vb turbo inlet. I’m interested also was wondering If you do installs as well?

@Smeedia 8 месяцев назад

Unfortunately do not have that up, and sometimes yes I do 🙏

@@Smeedia looks like you live in where I live I have some parts coming and I don’t know who to go to for installs. I live in puyallup. I would install my self but I don’t have time. If you could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Hm... I dropped the headers, turbo and Jpipe all at once. So .... Easy on the fa20/FA24 vs just Jpipe. I honestly think that's how Subaru installs it. I also did new headers and cleaned my oil pickup tube though, let me tell you there was RTV like all the other videos.

@Smeedia 8 месяцев назад

I feel like I should probably drop mine 😅 I didn't want to lose coolant or oil. If I end up dropping the manifold, I feel like it would be the best time to swap headers.
